High Altitude Physiology and Medicine

Part of the book series: Topics in Environmental Physiology and Medicine ((TEPHY))

Abstract

This study was designed to follow \({\dot V_{{O_2}}}\) changes at onset and offset of exercise in order to compare by indirect method the relative role played by the two creditors of complementary energy, creatine phosphate and anaerobic glycolysis, in lowlanders studied at sea level (SL) and after translocation to high altitude (HA).
