The Relationship

The present study examined the relationship between maximal oxygen uptake (V̇O2max) and daily physical activity in a group of 7- to 12-year-old boys. V̇O2max was assessed through the incremental treadmill test using an open circuit system. Physical activity level was obtained from heart rate telemetry outside of school time for 8 hrs during weekdays and during 40 min of physical education classes. The findings indicated that the absolute value of V̇O2max increased with age, while relative to body weight it remained almost the same across age, with a mean of 48.4 ml · kg−1 · min−1. Moreover, heart rate telemetry showed that the boys spent a limited amount of time on activities that raise the heart rate to a level above 160 bpm (an average of 1.9%). In addition, V̇O2max was found to be significantly related to the percentage of time spent at activity levels at or above a heart rate of 140 bpm, but not with activity levels at or above a heart rate of 160 bpm.

Energetic Expenditure

Fencing is an Olympic sport in which athletes fight one against one using bladed weapons. Contests consist of three 3-min bouts, with rest intervals of 1 min between them. No studies investigating oxygen uptake and energetic demand during fencing competitions exist, thus energetic expenditure and demand in this sport remain speculative. The aim of this study was to understand the physiological capacities underlying fencing performance. Aerobic energy expenditure and the recruitment of lactic anaerobic metabolism were determined in 15 athletes (2 females and 13 males) during a simulation of fencing by using a portable gas analyzer (MedGraphics VO2000), which was able to provide data on oxygen uptake, carbon dioxide production and heart rate. Blood lactate was assessed by means of a portable lactate analyzer. Average group energetic expenditure during the simulation was (mean ± SD) 10.24 ± 0.65 kcal·min−1, corresponding to 8.6 ± 0.54 METs. Oxygen uptakeand heart rate were always below the level of anaerobic threshold previously assessed during the preliminary incremental test, while blood lactate reached its maximum value of 6.9 ± 2.1 mmol·L−1 during the final recovery minute between rounds. Present data suggest that physical demand in fencing is moderate for skilled fencers and that both aerobic energy metabolism and anaerobic lactic energy sources are moderately recruited. This should be considered by coaches when preparing training programs for athletes.

Eston, Roger G., Ann V. Rowlands, and David K. Ingledew.Validity of heart rate, pedometry, and accelerometry for predicting the energy cost of children’s activities. J. Appl. Physiol. 84(1): 362–371, 1998.—Heart rate telemetry is frequently used to estimate daily activity in children and to validate other methods. This study compared the accuracy of heart rate monitoring, pedometry, triaxial accelerometry, and uniaxial accelerometry for estimating oxygen consumption during typical children’s activities. Thirty Welsh children (mean age 9.2 ± 0.8 yr) walked (4 and 6 km/h) and ran (8 and 10 km/h) on a treadmill, played catch, played hopscotch, and sat and crayoned. Heart rate, body accelerations in three axes, pedometry counts, and oxygen uptake were measured continuously during each 4-min activity. Oxygen uptake was expressed as a ratio of body mass raised to the power of 0.75 [scaled oxygen uptake (sV˙o 2)]. All measures correlated significantly ( P < 0.001) with sV˙o 2. A multiple-regression equation that included triaxial accelerometry counts and heart rate predicted sV˙o 2 better than any measure alone ( R 2 = 0.85, standard error of the estimate = 9.7 ml ⋅ kg−0.75 ⋅ min−1). The best of the single measures was triaxial accelerometry ( R 2 = 0.83, standard error of the estimate = 10.3 ml ⋅ kg−0.75 ⋅ min−1). It is concluded that a triaxial accelerometer provides the best assessment of activity. Pedometry offers potential for large population studies.

The Right

The aim of this study was to clarify the relationship between sympathetic outflow to skeletal muscle and oxygen uptake during dynamic exercise. Muscle sympathetic nerve activity (MSNA) was recorded from the right median nerve microneurographically in eight healthy volunteers during leg cycling at four different intensities in a seated position for a 16-min bout. Work loads selected were 20, 40, 60, and 75% of maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max). Heart rate and blood pressure were measured during each exercise test. MSNA burst frequency was suppressed by 28% during cycling at 20% VO2max (23 vs. 33 bursts/min for control). Thereafter, it increased in a linear fashion with increasing work rate, with a significantly higher burst frequency during 60% VO2max than the control value. Both heart rate and mean blood pressure rose significantly during 20% VO2max from the control value and increased linearly with increased exercise intensity. During light exercise, MSNA was suppressed by arterial and cardiopulmonary baroreceptors as a result of the hemodynamic changes associated with leg muscle pumping. The baroreflex inhibition may overcome the muscle metaboreflex excitation to induce MSNA suppression during light exercise. These results suggest that during light exercise MSNA is inhibited, perhaps due to loading of the cardiopulmonary and arterial baroreflexes, and that during heavier exercise the increase in MSNA occurs as muscle metaboreflexes are activated.
