Abstract
The off-transient pulmonary oxygen uptake (VËO2) response to a single bout of intense, exhaustive exercise has been characterized over the years by a second-order exponential model. In this paper, we report the superiority of a third-order exponential decay in describing the VËO2 off-kinetics after a maximal cycling exercise lasting 60-s. Our findings are in accordance with a biphasic pattern of phosphocreatine resynthesis when muscle pH is affected.
