Abstract
Although emerging data suggests a greater influence of gluconeogenic precursors, endurance sled dogs have long appeared to rely heavily on fatty acid oxidation for sustained energy production. However, much of the research investigating lipid utilization during exercise in sled dogs has been carried out with dogs subjected to extended bouts of endurance exercise. Less is known about changes in fatty acid composition in endurance training sled dogs subjected to short bouts of exercise, and fewer data define how fatty acid composition may change in distinct lipid fractions. As such, the study objective was to assess whether short bouts of submaximal exercise would affect fatty acid profiles of serum lipid fractions in endurance training sled dogs. Fifteen privately-owned Siberian huskies were used (8 females: 4 intact, 4 spayed; 7 males: 2 intact, 5 neutered), with an average age of 4.6 ± 2.5 years and body weight of 24.8 ± 4.2 kg. Throughout the diet acclimation and remainder of the study, all dogs were fed a dry extruded diet that met or exceeded all AAFCO nutrient recommendations. Dogs were weighed weekly and fed to maintain baseline body weight. A 12-week exercise regimen was designed to incorporate weekly increases in running distance, but weather played a role in setting the daily distance. On weeks 2, 5, and 11, an exercise challenge was implemented whereby dogs would run 4 km at 15 km/h in teams of 4. Pre- and post-exercise blood samples were taken, and gas chromatography was used to evaluate fatty acid profiles of all identified serum lipid fractions (cholesterol ester, diacylglycerol, free fatty acid, phospholipids, triglyceride). Data were analyzed using PROC MIXED of SAS, with dog as a random effect and week and sampling time point as fixed effects. Composition of oleic (18:1n9), linoleic (18:2n6), and alpha-linolenic (18:3n3) acids in the free fatty acid fraction decreased by ~9, 10, and 60%, respectively, following exercise (P ≤ 0.05). The results presented herein suggest that aside from a degree of depletion of these 18-carbon unsaturated fatty acids, short bouts of submaximal exercise do not induce considerable changes to sled dog fatty acid profiles.

Abstract
Abstract Training near or at ventilatory threshold (VT) is an adequate stimulus to improve the thresholds for sedentary subjects, but a higher intensity is necessary for conditioned subjects. The choice of cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPx) protocol has an influence on VTs identification and can reduce their reliability for exercise prescription. This study tested if VO2 and heart rate (HR) corresponding to first (VT1) and second ventilatory threshold (VT2) determined during a ramp protocol were equivalent to those observed in rectangular load exercises at the same intensity in runners elite athletes (EA) and non-athletes (NA). Eighteen health subjects were divided into two groups: EA (n = 9, VO2max 68.6 mL·kg-1·min-1) and NA (n = 9, VO2max 47.2 mL·kg-1·min-1). They performed CPx and 48h and 96h later, a continuous running lasting 1 h for VT1 and until exhaustion for VT2. The results showed that EA at VT1 session, presented delta differences for VO2 (+9.1%, p = 0.125) vs. NA (+20.5%, p = 0.012). The Bland-Altman plots for VT1 presented biases of (4.4 ± 6.9) and (5.5 ± 5.6 mLO2·kg-1·min-1) for AE and NA, respectively. In VT2, the VO2 and HR of the NA showed biases of (0.4 ± 2.9 mLO2·kg-1·min-1) and (4.9 ± 4.2 bpm). The ramp protocol used in this study was inappropriate for NA because it underestimates the values of VO2 and HR at VT1 found in the rectangular load exercise. The HR showed good agreement at VT2 with CPx and may be a good parameter for controlling exercise intensity.

Abstract
Muscular exercise requires transitions to and from metabolic rates often exceeding an order of magnitude above resting and places prodigious demands on the oxidative machinery and O2-transport pathway. The science of kinetics seeks to characterize the dynamic profiles of the respiratory, cardiovascular, and muscular systems and their integration to resolve the essential control mechanisms of muscle energetics and oxidative function: a goal not feasible using the steady-state response. Essential features of the O2 uptake (VO2) kinetics response are highly conserved across the animal kingdom. For a given metabolic demand, fast VO2 kinetics mandates a smaller O2 deficit, less substrate-level phosphorylation and high exercise tolerance. By the same token, slow VO2 kinetics incurs a high O2 deficit, presents a greater challenge to homeostasis and presages poor exercise tolerance. Compelling evidence supports that, in healthy individuals walking, running, or cycling upright, VO2 kinetics control resides within the exercising muscle(s) and is therefore not dependent upon, or limited by, upstream O2-transport systems. However, disease, aging, and other imposed constraints may redistribute VO2 kinetics control more proximally within the O2-transport system. Greater understanding of VO2 kinetics control and, in particular, its relation to the plasticity of the O2-transport/utilization system is considered important for improving the human condition, not just in athletic populations, but crucially for patients suffering from pathologically slowed VO2 kinetics as well as the burgeoning elderly population.

Abstract
AbstractFive previously untrained yearling sled dogs were evaluated for endurance training-induced changes in maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) and submaximal blood lactate concentrations. Following 3 weeks of light training followed by 4 weeks of moderate training, VO2max increased by 10%, from 180.2 ± 9.9 to 198.7 ± 19.2 ml kg min− 1 (P = 0.046). Light training was not associated with any increase in VO2max. Blood lactate concentrations at the same absolute intensity decreased by 215%, from 9.2 ± 4.7 to 4.3 ± 2.4 mmol l− 1 (P = 0.022). Speeds associated with oxygen consumptions of 70% VO2max increased by 12%, from 4.8 ± 0.4 to 5.4 ± 0.5 m s− 1 (P = 0.008) and speeds associated with VO2max increased by 21%, from 6.7 ± 0.3 to 8.2 ± 0.7 m s− 1 (P = 0.012).

Abstract
Fed rats were exercised until exhaustion by almost 65% VO2max on a treadmill. In 2.5 min after the exercise, blood was collected from various vessels of the splanchnic bed. Metabolites, glucose, lactate, ketone body, and nitrogencompounds in the plasma, were measured. Glucose excretion from the liver was increased by exercise, but was not significant. The absorption by the kidney decreased to 30% by exercise. Lactate was highly absorbed by the kidney, lower limbs, and digestive tract by exercise. Exercise caused a 200-300% increase of the plasma beta-hydroxybutyrate, but the absorption by the kidney and the lower limbs was decreased. These data suggest that glucose is a good carbon source for the recovery, and that lactate is more useful than glucose, but ketone body is less effective at a very early recovery phase under fed condition. Amino acid balances in each organ except digestive tract were positive showing anabolic conditions of these organs even after exhaustive exercise at fed condition. Most amino acid concentrations in the plasma tended to decrease to 60-90% by exercise. Amino acids were excreted from the digestive tract, and were eventually absorbed by the liver in both rested and exercised rat. The digestive tract, therefore, seems to be a primary amino acids pool to supply them to the liver during the inter meal. Urea excretion from the liver was more than the absorbed ammonia showing that active deamination from amino acids was carrying on. The resulted carbon skeletons of the amino acids might be used for the gluconeogenesis in the liver.

Abstract
To investigate the different ways of assessing the running velocity at which maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) occurs, or maximal aerobic velocity (vamax), 32 well-trained runners (8 female and 24 male) were studied. The vamax and the running velocity corresponding to a blood lactate concentration of 4 mmol.l-1 (vla4) were measured during a progressive treadmill session. Within the week preceding or following the treadmill measurement the subjects completed a Université de Montreal Track-Test (UMTT). The velocity corresponding to the last stage of this test (vUMTT) was slightly higher than vamax: 6.08 m.s-1, SD 0.41, vs 6.01 m.s-1, SD 0.44 (P less than 0.03) but these two velocities were strongly correlated (r = 0.92, P less than 0.001). The heart rate values corresponding to these velocities were similar and well correlated (r = 0.79, P less than 0.01); the corresponding blood lactate values had similar mean values: 10.5 mmol.l-1, SD 2.7 vs 11.8 mmol.l-1, SD 2.5, but were not correlated. Both vamax and vUMTT correlated well with the best performance sustained over 1500 m during the season. These results suggest that the UMTT provides a value of vamax as accurately as a treadmill measurement and that either could be used to measure the running velocity corresponding to VO2max. The v1a4 was 86.6%, SD 2.6 of vamax; these two velocities correlated strongly. Thus, in well trained runners, v1a4, when measured with a well-defined procedure, corresponds to a constant fraction of vamax and depends then on VO2max and the energy cost of running.

Abstract
Heart rate (HR) and oxygen uptake (VO2) at the mechanical power (W) corresponding to the capillary blood lactate ([la]cap) of 4 mmol.l-1 (Wlt) were measured in 34 healthy male subjects during incremental exercise (Winc). On the basis of these measurements, the subjects were asked to cycle at Wlt for 60 min (steady-state exercise, Wss). Twenty subjects could not reach the target time (mean exhaustion time, te, 38.2 min, SD 5.3), while 6 of the 14 remaining subjects declared themselves exhausted at the end of exercise. The final [la]cap if the two groups of exhausted subjects were 5.3 mmol.l-1, SD 2.3 and 4.3 mmol.l-1, SD 1.1, respectively. At the end of Wss, [la]cap and HR were significantly lower in the 8 unexhausted subjects than in the other subjects. This group also had a lower HR at Wlt during Winc. The HR and VO2 appeared to be higher during Wss than during Winc. When all subjects were ranked according to their te during Wss, Wlt (expressed per kilogram of body mass) was found to be negatively related to te. In conclusion, during Winc, measurements of physiological variables at fixed [la]cap give a poor prediction of their trends during Wss and of the relative te; at the same work load [la]cap can be quite different in the two experimental conditions. Furthermore, resistance to exercise fatigue at Wlt seems lower in the fitter subjects.

Abstract
Venous blood lactate concentrations [1ab] were measured every 30 s in five athletes performing prolonged exercise at three constant intensities: the aerobic threshold (Thaer), the anaerobic threshold (Than) and at a work rate (IWR) intermediate between Thaer and Than. Measurements of oxygen consumption (VO2) and heart rate (HR) were made every min. Most of the subjects maintained constant intensity exercise for 45 min at Thaer and IWR, but at Than none could exercise for more than 30 min. Relationships between variations in [1ab] and concomitant changes in VO2 or HR were not statistically significant. Depending on the exercise intensity (Thaer, IWR, or Than) several different patterns of change in [1ab] have been identified. Subjects did not necessarily show the same pattern at comparable exercise intensities. Averaging [1ab] as a function of relative exercise intensity masked spatial and temporal characteristics of individual curves so that a common pattern could not be discerned at any of the three exercise levels studied. The differences among the subjects are better described on individual [1ab] curves when sampling has been made at time intervals sufficiently small to resolve individual characteristics.

Abstract
Eleven laboratory-pretrained subjects (initial VO2max = 54 ml.kg-1.min-1) took part in a study to evaluate the effect of a short endurance training programme [8-12 sessions, 1 h per session, with an intensity varying from 60% to 90% maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max)] on the responses of blood ammonia (b[NH+4]) and lactate (b[la]) concentrations during progressive and constant exercise intensities. After training, during which VO2max did not increase, significant decreases in b[NH+4], b[la] and muscle proton concentration were observed at the end of the 80% VO2max constant exercise intensity, although b[NH+4] and b[la] during progressive exercise were unchanged. On the other hand, no correlations were found between muscle fibre composition and b[NH+4] in any of the exercise procedures. This study demonstrated that a constant exercise intensity was necessary to reveal the effect of training on muscle metabolic changes inducing the decrease in b[NH+4] and b[la]. At a relative power of exercise of 80% VO2max, there was no effect of muscle fibre composition on b[NH+4] accumulation.
