Why the study?
Do on- and off-transient pulmonary oxygen uptake kinetics differ between middle-distance and long-distance runners?
Do on- and off-transient pulmonary oxygen uptake kinetics differ between middle-distance and long-distance runners?
Long-distance runners exhibit faster on- and off-transient pulmonary oxygen uptake kinetics compared to middle-distance runners, which correlates with their greater training volume.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
Faster VO2 kinetics observed in long-distance runners; leaves open causal links to training volume or performance and requires prospective trials.
Kilding et al. (2006) studied this question.
