Effects of Different Types of Active Recoveries after Supramaximal Exercise on Exercise-Induced Stress and Subsequent Anaerobic Power Testing.
Occasionally, an athlete can collapse after completing an event, such as a cycle sprint or a short-or medium-distance sprint which mainly involves the utilization of leg muscles. When this type of acute passive recovery occurs after supramaximal exercise, the volume of blood returning to the heart from the lower limbs decreases, which causes the loss of consciousness. Abrupt cessation of exercise may lead to hyperventilation, maintenance of La levels,10 and persistent muscle pain.
The maximum La levels for NW immediately after the main exercise until 5 min after the exercise were significantly lower than those for W (11.6±0.7 mM vs. 12.9±1.5 mM; p<0.05). La levels for W and NW after ≥10 min of exercise indicated that there were no significant differences between the values for N and NW, although the values were lower for NW than for W.
We investigated whether both the conditions during Ex I had the same performance level, and the results showed that the work values for Ex I (W, 3761.2±229.6 kg*m; NW, 3730.6±249.1
kg*m) did not significantly differ between the two conditions. Moreover, VO2 and HR, which are physiological indices, increased over time under both the conditions (p<0.001), and no significant
differences were observed between the conditions. Studies on W and NW tests indicated that
VO2 , HR, and OMNI scores for both W and NW were consistent between the present and previous studies.
