Muscle oxygen uptake (V O2 ,mus ) dynamics at the onset of exercise can be affected by prior
heavy exercise. We tested the hypothesis that elevated forearm blood flow (FBF) following prior
circulatory occlusion would also be associated with accelerated V O2 ,mus dynamics during subsequent heavy hand-grip exercise. Ten trained young men performed 5 min of heavy hand-grip
exercise at 30% MVC as a control (CON), and four additional heavy bouts after brief recovery
from: (1) prior heavy exercise (Heavy A), (2) heavy exercise followed by 2 min occlusion (Heavy
B), (3) 15 min occlusion (Heavy C), and (4) 5 min occlusion with1 min of moderate exercise
during occlusion (Heavy D). FBF was measured by ultrasound and arterial venous oxygen
content difference was calculated from venous blood samples to estimate V O2 ,mus . FBF and
V O2 ,mus dynamics were quantified from the rise time. All priming conditions elevated FBF
immediately before the start of subsequent heavy bout (Heavy A: 207.4 92.8, B: 207.8 75.8,
C: 135.8 59.2, D: 199.5 59.0 vs. CON: 57.4 16.6 ml min1 , P < 0.01). Unexpectedly, prior
occlusion reduced FBF and O2 extraction at the onset of subsequent heavy exercise and
consequently slowed V O2 ,mus dynamics (Heavy C: rise time = 95.9 28.9 vs. CON: 58.6 14.3 s,
P < 0.01). FBF and V O2 ,mus dynamics were faster in Heavy A, B and D compared to CON
(P < 0.05). Overall, there was a positive correlation between the rise times for V O2 ,mus and FBF
(r 2 = 0.75) indicating that V O2 ,mus dynamics during heavy forearm exercise are linked to O2
delivery in trained young men. To investigate a possible mechanism for slower adaptation of
V O2 ,mus following ischaemia, the prior occlusion condition was repeated after ingesting a high
dose of ibuprofen. This resulted in restoration of the FBF and V O2 ,mus to control levels suggesting
that a prostaglandin-mediated mechanism after occlusion retarded the adaptation of blood flow
and oxygen consumption at the onset of subsequent heavy exercise.

Introduction
During transitions of exercise to higher power output,
faster activation of the aerobic energy supply system
will result in a smaller oxygen (O2 ) deficit and reduced
homeostatic disturbance. There has been considerable
interest in the interrelationships between O2 transport
and O2 utilization in establishing the kinetics of aerobic
energy supply at the onset of exercise (Grassi et al.
1996; Tschakovsky & Hughson, 1999; Whipp et al. 2005;
Hughson, 2009). Prior heavy exercise is an experimental

Figure 3. FBF responses during exercise in the four Heavy bouts (AD) compared to the CON
Heavy bouts AD are shown in panels AD, respectively. All priming conditions resulted in higher FBF at the start
of the subsequent heavy exercise (bouts Heavy AD) compared to the CON; however by the end of exercise there
were no differences. During exercise, Heavy A, B and D all showed higher FBF compared to the CON. Data points
are the average responses of 10 subjects. Data are means S.E.M., P < 0.01, P < 0.05.

Figure 4. (av)D O2 responses during exercise in the four Heavy bouts (AD) compared to the CON
All priming conditions resulted in lower (av)D O2 at the start of the subsequent heavy exercise (bouts Heavy AD)
compared to the CON. By 45 s of exercise there were no significant differences in (av)D O2 between CON and
Heavy A, B and D. However, (av)D O2 was lower up to 90 s of exercise in Heavy C compared to CON. There was
an overshoot of (av)D O2 at 90 s of exercise in CON and Heavy A compared to end exercise. Data points are the
average responses of 10 subjects. Data are means S.E.M., P < 0.01, P < 0.05.

Post occlusion responses with ibuprofen and placebo.
Figure 6. Across all conditions the rise time () for V O2 ,mus was
significantly correlated to the rise time () for FBF
V O2 ,mus = 2.5 + 0.92 FBF; r 2 = 0.75, P < 0.001. Data points are
individual values of 10 subjects in each of 5 conditions (CON and
Heavy AD).
Figure 5. V O2 ,mus responses during exercise in the four Heavy bouts (AD) compared to the CON
At the start of exercise, V O2 ,mus in all conditions was not different compared to the CON. V O2 ,mus in Heavy A was
significantly higher than CON from the 1st minute through the end of exercise.V O2 ,mus in Heavy B was significantly
higher during exercise onset (from 30 s through 2 min). V O2 ,mus in Heavy C was depressed during exercise onset,
but reached the same level as CON by the 4th minute of exercise. Heavy D was not different from the CON
condition. Data points are the average responses of 10 subjects. Data are means S.E.M., P < 0.01, P < 0.05.
