Hormone and Metabolite Response to Weight-Lifting Training Sessions

Abstract: Eleven weight-trained athletes (age X +/- SD = 33 +/- 5 yrs, weight = 72 +/- 10 kg) with a maximal performance in bench press at the beginning of the study (116 +/- 19 kg) were studied at rest, after a standardized submaximal training session, and after a maximal session once a month for 4 months to study the blood metabolites and hormonal changes during weight lifting. The submaximal load was six series of eight bench presses at 70% of maximal performance presses, and the maximal load was the maximal number o… Show more

“…The previous reports of cortisol responses to resistance exercise vary considerably between studies, depending to some extent on subject characteristics and exercise parameters. Cortisol has been reported either to increase (Kraemer et al 1987;Ha¨kkinen and Pakarinen 1993;Kraemer et al 1993Kraemer et al , 1998a or show little change (Guezennec et al 1986;Kraemer et al 1993;Volek et al 1997;Kraemer et al 1999) in response to resistance exercise. Nevertheless, a high volume of resistance exercise has tended to show a greater cortisol response than a low volume (Kraemer et al 1993;Gotshalk et al 1997).…”

“…In this study, this fall is more precocious (a rugby match lasts 1.5 h) as we reported in a previous study on runners (Lac and Berthon 2000). At the cellular level, testosterone is known to exert a protective effect against proteolytic pathways (opposed to cortisol's effects) and a sparing effect on glycogen stores (Guezennec et al 1986). The fall of testosterone limits these protective effects and allows the energy supply to be enhanced from these cellular substrates.…”

“…É possível que esses fatores apresentem algum papel na resposta da testosterona observada no presente estudo. Em adendo, o fato de a atividade nervosa simpática ser maior quanto maior for a intensidade dos exercícios resistidos (26) pode explicar a maior ASCR observada no G80 quando comparada com o GC.…”
