Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Ventilatory work during heavy endurance exercise has not been thought to influence systemic lactate concentration. We evaluated the effect of maximal isocapnic volitional hyperpnoea upon arterialised venous blood lactate concentration ([lac-]B) during leg cycling exercise at maximum lactate steady state (MLSS). Seven healthy males performed a lactate minimum test to estimate MLSS, which was then resolved using separate 30 min constant power tests (MLSS=207+/-8 W, mean +/- SEM). Thereafter, a 30 min control trial at MLSS was performed. In a further experimental trial, the control trial was mimicked except that from 20 to 28 min maximal isocapnic volitional hyperpnoea was superimposed on exercise. Over 20-28 min minute ventilation, oxygen uptake, and heart rate during the control and experimental trials were 87.3+/-2.4 and 168.3+/-7.0 l min(-1) (P<0.01), the latter being comparable to that achieved in the maximal phase of the lactate minimum test (171.9+/-6.8 l min(-1)), 3.46+/-0.20 and 3.83 +/- 0.20 l min(-1) (P<0.01), and 158.5+/-2.7 and 166.8+/-2.7 beats min(-1) (P<0.05), respectively. From 20 to 30 min of the experimental trial [lac-]B increased from 3.7+/-0.2 to 4.7+/-0.3 mmol l(-1) (P<0.05). The partial pressure of carbon dioxide in arterialised venous blood increased approximately 3 mmHg during volitional hyperpnoea, which may have attenuated the [lac-]B increase. These results show that, during heavy exercise, respiratory muscle work may affect [lac-]B. We speculate that the changes observed were related to the altered lactate turnover in respiratory muscles, locomotor muscles, or both.
