Abstract
Six trained males [mean maximal O2 uptake (VO2max) = 66 ml X kg-1 X min-1] performed 30 min of cycling (mean = 76.8% VO2max) during normoxia (21.35 +/- 0.16% O2) and hyperoxia (61.34 +/- 1.0% O2). Values for VO2, CO2 output (VCO2), minute ventilation (VE), respiratory exchange ratio (RER), venous lactate, glycerol, free fatty acids, glucose, and alanine were obtained before, during, and after the exercise bout to investigate the possibility that a substrate shift is responsible for the previously observed enhanced performance and decreased RER during exercise with hyperoxia. VO2, free fatty acids, glucose, and alanine values were not significantly different in hyperoxia compared with normoxia. VCO2, RER, VE, and glycerol and lactate levels were all lower during hyperoxia. These results are interpreted to support the possibility of a substrate shift during hyperoxia.
