Effects of supramaximal exercise on blood glucose levels during a subsequent exercise.

The purpose of the present investigation was to examine the effects of hyperglycemia induced by supramaximal exercise on blood glucose homeostasis during submaximal exercise following immediately after. Six men were subjected to three experimental situations; in two of these situations, 3 min of high-intensity exercise (corresponding to 112, SD 1% VO2max) was immediately followed by either a 60-min period of submaximal exercise (68, SD 2% VO2max) or a 60-min resting period. In the third situation, subjects performed a 63-min period of submaximal exercise only. There were no significant differences between the heart rates, oxygen uptakes, and respiratory exchange ratios during the two submaximal exercise bouts (greater than 15 min) whether or not preceded by supramaximal exercise. The supramaximal exercise was associated within 10 min of the start increases (P less than 0.05) in blood glucose, insulin, and lactate concentrations. This hyperglycemia was more pronounced when subjects continued to exercise submaximally than when they rested (at 7.5 min; P less than 0.05). There was a more rapid return to normal exercise blood glucose and insulin values during submaximal exercise compared with rest. The data show that the hyperinsulinemia following supramaximal exercise is corrected in between 10-30 min during submaximal exercise following immediately, suggesting that this exercise combination does not lead to premature hypoglycemia.

Effects of dietary manipulations on blood glucose and hormonal responses following supramaximal exercise.

The effects of supramaximal exercise on blood glucose, insulin, and catecholamine responses were examined in 7 healthy male physical education students (mean +/- SD: age = 21 +/- 1.2 years; VO2max = 54 +/- 6 ml X kg-1 X min-1) in response to the following three dietary conditions: a normal mixed diet (N); a 24-h low carbohydrate (CHO) diet intended to reduce liver glycogen content (D1); and a 24-h low CHO diet preceded by a leg muscle CHO overloading protocol intended to reduce hepatic glycogen content with increased muscle glycogen store (D2). Exercise was performed on a bicycle ergometer at an exercise intensity of 130% VO2max for 90 s. Irrespective of the dietary manipulation, supramaximal exercise was associated with a similar significant (p less than 0.01) increase in the exercise and recovery plasma glucose values. The increase in blood glucose levels was accompanied by a similar increase in insulin concentrations in all three groups despite lower resting insulin levels in conditions D1 and D2. Lactate concentrations were higher during the early phase of the recovery period in the D2 as compared to the N condition. At cessation of exercise, epinephrine and norepinephrine were greatly elevated in all three conditions. These results indicate that the increase in plasma glucose and insulin associated with very high intensity exercise, persists in spite of dietary manipulations intended to reduce liver glycogen content or increase muscle glycogen store.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
