Contraction-induced alterations in capillary RBC flux and distribution augment convective and diffusive mechanisms for blood-myocyte O2 transfer, though initial rapid increases in velocity may transiently lower O2 diffusing capacity.

Augments O2 transfer mechanisms during contractions in animal models; leaves open translation to human physiology or clinical practice.
Kindig et al. (2002) studied this question.
