The Immediate Effect of Parachute-Resisted Gallop on Heart Rate, Running Speed and Stride Frequency in Dogs

“…Application of external forces (e.g., water resistance) causes immediate biomechanical and cardiorespiratory responses to exercise [23][24][25]. High-intensity interval training with and without resistance may be possible alternatives to moderate-intensity continuous training in dogs with various functions (e.g., hunting, canicross, olfactory detection) and specific impairments (e.g., decreased muscle strength) to enhance physical fitness [5,26,27]. However, there is still hardly any research on highintensity interval exercise and especially a lack of research on the immediate adaptations to drag force resisted exercise on cardiorespiratory fitness variables in canine athletes.…”
