dc.description.abstract |
In this study, we examined the effect of 96–125 h of competitive exercise on cognitive and physical performance. Cognitive performance was assessed using the Stroop test (n ¼ 9) before, during, and after the 2003 Southern Traverse adventure race. Strength (MVC) and strength endurance (time to failure at 70% current MVC) of the knee extensor and elbow flexor muscles were assessed before and after racing. Changes in vertical jump (n ¼ 24) and 30-s Wingate performance (n ¼ 27) were assessed in a different group of athletes. Complex response times were affected by the race (16% slower), although not significantly so (P ¼ 0.18), and were dependent on exercise intensity (less so at 50% peak power output after racing). Reduction of strength (P50.05) of the legs (17%) and arms (11%) was equivalent (P ¼ 0.17). Reductions in strength endurance were inconsistent (legs 18%, P ¼ 0.09; arms 13%, P ¼ 0.40), but were equivalent between limbs (P ¼ 0.80). Similar reductions were observed in jump height (78+9%, P50.01) and Wingate peak power (77+15%, P ¼ 0.04), mean power (77+11%, P50.01), and end power (710+11%, P50.01). We concluded that: moderate-intensity exercise may help complex decision making during sustained stress; functional performance was modestly impacted, and the upper and lower limbs were affected similarly despite being used disproportionately. |
