The hypothesis. We supposed the fatigue and its residual phenomena generated by eccentric load to have effect on the changes in vegetative indices, the slow component during exercise of high aerobic intensity in particular. The aim of the research was to establish the residual effect of eccentric load on the changes in vegetative indices during exercise of high intensity. The tasks set were as follows: 1. To estimate the residual effect of eccentric load on the fast component of changes in vegetative indices during exercise of high intensity. 2. To estimate the residual effect of eccentric load on the slow component of changes in vegetative indices during exercise of high intensity. The subjects were 8 students of the Lithuanian University of Agriculture, members of the university basketball team, who gave their informed consent to take part in the experiments within the present study. The age of the subjects was 19,5 ± 0,53 years, height – 191,0 ± 5,8 cm and body mass – 86,5 ± 9,78 kg respectively. The methods used were as follows: changes in the values of VO2, VCO2, heart rate (HR) and Ve indices of the subjects were established applying the test of continuously increased load and the test of constant load when pedalling the veloergometer. After testing blood of the subjects to establish lactate concentration in the blood was taken. To evaluate the level of intensity of the exercise performed by the subjects the evaluation scale of perceptible efforts (intensity of... [to full text]

Neįprasti didelio intensyvumo (ypač ekscentriniai) raumenų susitraukimai gali sukelti raumenų pažaidą (Yanagisawa et al., 2011; Neme et al., 2013), kuri pasireiškia sumažėjusia raumenų susitraukimo jėga Byrne et al., 2004; Skurvydas et al., 2010) miofibrilių Z linijos morfologiniais pokyčiais (Feasson et al., 2002), baltymų ištekėjimu iš pažeistų raumens skaidulų, raumenų skausmu, patinimu ir padidėjusiu standumu (Malisoux et al., 2006; Chen et al., 2013). Pažaida dažna pradėjus intensyviai treniruotis po santykinai mažo fizinio aktyvumo laikotarpio arba kaitant krūvio parametrus (intensyvumą, apimtį) siekiant išvengti monotonijos ir sukelti didžiausią adaptacinį atsaką (Bompa, 1999; Issurin, 2010). Ankstesniuose tyrimuose taikyti vienodo dydžio krūviai neatitinka sportinių pratybų specifiškumo (Nosaka, Clarkson, 1995; Chen, Hsieh, 2001): pratybose krūvio apimtis ir intensyvumas nuolatos keičiami, taikomos įvairios krūvio didinimo strategijos. Išlieka neaišku, kaip kinta raumenų pažaida ir motorinė funkcija didinant fizinį krūvį taikant skirtingas strategijas. Kėlėme hipotezę, kad: 1) nuosekliai didinamas krūvis sukelia mažesnę raumenų pažaidą, palyginti su staigiai didinamu krūviu, nes motorinė sistema labai jautriai reaguoja į krūvio didinimo greitį; 2) treniruotės ciklo metu periodiškai pasireiškianti didesnė raumenų pažaida dėl superkompensacijos gali sukelti didesnę ilgalaikę griaučių raumenų adaptaciją (masės ir jėgos prieaugį).

Muscle damage manifests in altered Z-disk morphology (Feasson et al., 2002), prolonged impairment of muscle force (Byrne et al., 2004; Skurvydas et al., 2010), protein leakage from injured muscle fibres, delayed-onset muscle soreness, and increased passive muscle stiffness and swelling (Malisoux et al., 2006; Chen et al., 2013). Muscle damage is frequently induced by sports training, where physical load parameters are being varied on the temporal scale to avoid monotony and maximize the adaptations (Bompa 1999; Issurin, 2010). However, there are limited data on the development of muscle damage and its impact on muscle function when variant exercise training schemes are applied. More needs to be learned about the impact of different strategies of load increase on exercise-induced muscle damage in order to identify progression regimes that can optimize neuromuscular adaptation processes. Therefore, we have followed the dynamics of muscle function during the stretch–shortening exercise with differently increasing load. We increased training stimulus by varying the volume, intensity, and range of motion. According to Nosaka (2008), these components of the eccentric contraction training are the most important for adaptation of the skeletal muscle. We hypothesized that the progressive increase in training load would induce... [to full text]
