Comparison of the hormonal responses to exhaustive incremental exercise in adolescent and young adult males

Abstract: Objective: Evaluate hormonal responses to incremental-stage exercise (EX) test to exhaustion in adolescents. Subjects and methods: Adolescents were tested at 16 years of age in Tanner Stage 4 (TS4) and at 17 years of age in Tanner Stage 5 (TS5) (n = 6). Adults were tested at 21 ± 1 y. (X ± SD) (n = 4) and served as controls. Blood samples were taken at rest, at the end of each EX stage. Results: Main effects for EX in cortisol (p < 0.01, increasing with each EX stage) and for subject group for testosterone (T)… Show more

“…Salivary cortisol has been widely confirmed to be a valid and reliable indicator of the biological active and free fraction of cortisol levels (28) and corresponds well to serum cortisol levels both at rest and after exercise (37). For instance, salivary cortisol levels were elevated after a cycling above 70% of VO 2peak in men (37), after a running above 70% of peak heart rate (HR peak ) in 14-year-old boys and girls (6), and during incremental cycling in 17-year-old boys (21). However, information on the hormonal response to physical exercise in children is scarce and data on the hormonal response to HIIT is lacking (4,5,9,44).…”

“…Recently, salivary concentration of cortisol, the main end product of the HPA axis, has emerged as an important biomarker for the psycho-physiological stress response (28) associated with prolonged (51) as well as high-intensity exercise (29,52) in adults, adolescents (21) and young children (4,5,7). Salivary cortisol has been widely confirmed to be a valid and reliable indicator of the biological active and free fraction of cortisol levels (28) and corresponds well to serum cortisol levels both at rest and after exercise (37).…”

“…Estradiol and testosterone responses were highest in Tanner stage V [5] . In adolescent males aged 16-17 years, a higher testosterone response to a graded exercise protocol has been shown when the subjects were in Tanner stage V versus Tanner stage IV of genital development [15] . A 32% increase in testosterone concentrations was demonstrated in a study of junior elite weight lifters aged 16-18 years after a traditional weight lifting session involving high-intensity, high-speed resistance training exercises [16] .…”
