| Research Abstract |
We investigated the differences in muscle energy metabolism during a knee extension exercise of varying intensities under conditions of normoxia and hypoxia. The values of muscle phosphocreatine (PCr), pH, and oxygen consumption (VO_<2mus>) were significantly lower at submaximal identical workloads under hypoxic conditions than at normoxic conditions (p<0.05). At exhaustion, in both the conditions, there was an almost complete depletion of the muscle PCr and no difference in the values of muscle PCr. However, the muscle pH and VO_<2mus> at exhaustion were significantly lower during hypoxic conditions than during normoxic conditions (p<0.05). The results of this study suggest that as compared to normoxic conditions, hypoxic conditions cause a decrease in the aerobic energy supply and an increase in the anaerobic energy supply in muscles during exercise at identical workloads.
