“…Furthermore, due to the intensified [13], exhaustive and intermittent [1,3] nature of soccer, other determinants of RE may also provide an indication toward an individual's ability to perform highintensity activities during soccer match-play. Di Paco et al [14] demonstrated an improved ventilatory efficiency for a given exercise intensity in soccer players of a superior fitness level. Consequently, the purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between: VO2max, RE and determinants of RE, and physical measures associated with elite youth soccer performance during soccer match-play within a group of highly trained youth soccer players.…”

“…In addition, these same authors reported that other determinants of running economy such as: stride length, stride frequency, respiratory exchange ratio and muscle fibre distribution were unaltered. As a result, the responsiveness of V E to high intensity intermittent training, like that which is experienced during soccer, may have a positive impact on physical performance during soccer matchplay; with players at a higher level demonstrating an enhanced ventilatory efficiency (V E VO 2 ) for a given exercise intensity [14] and therefore increased levels of physical performance during soccer match-play.…”

reporting positive relationships between VO 2max and physical performance measures associated with soccer match-play [9], while others have reported no relationship between VO 2max and measures of physical performance [10]. Rebelo et al. [10] reported that the high intensity running performed during a competitive match, in adult soccer was closely related to a player's VO 2max (r = 0.81). Despite the equivocal nature of the relationship between VO 2max and markers of match-play, the attainment of

“…A limitation of conventional face masks is that air may increasingly escape un ltered when ventilation increases from ≈5-10 L/min at rest to over 100 L/min in untrained subjects (30) and up to 200 L/min e.g. in highly trained rowers (31)(32)(33). To address the issue of leakage of un ltered air at high levels of ventilation, a taped face mask was developed, where a " ltering facepiece 2" (FFP2) lter -combined with a laminar KinesioTape -is taped onto the face.…”

Background: Face masks are an effective, non-pharmacological strategy to reduce the transmission of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) and other pathogens. However, it is a challenge to keep masks sealed during exercise, as ventilation can increase from 5-10 L/min at rest to up to 200 L/min so that masks may be blown away from the face. To reduce leakage e.g. during exercise, a face mask was developed that is taped onto the face. The aim of this study was to investigate during a graded cycle ergometry test the effect of a taped mask on the perception of breathlessness, heart rate, lactate, and oxygen saturation when compared to a surgical mask and no mask.Methods: Four trained and healthy males and females each (n=8 in total) performed incremental cycle ergometer tests until voluntary exhaustion under three conditions: (1) No mask/control, (2) surgical mask or (3) taped mask. During these tests, we measured perception of breathlessness, heart rate, the concentration of blood lactate and peripheral oxygen saturation and analysed the resultant data with one or two-way repeated measures ANOVAs. We also used a questionnaire to evaluate mask comfort and analysed the data with paired t-tests. Results: When compared to wearing no mask, a taped face mask significantly reduces the maximal workload in a graded exercise test by 12±6% (p=0.001). Moreover, with a taped face mask, subjects perceive severe breathlessness at 12±9% lower workload (p=0.012) and oxygen saturation at 65% of the maximal workload is 1.5% lower (p=0.018) when compared to wearing no mask. Heart rate and the concentration of lactate were not significantly different at any workload. When compared to wearing a surgical mask, wearing a taped face mask has a significantly better wearing comfort (p=0.038), feels better on the skin (p=0.004), there is a lower sensation of moisture (p=0.026) and wearers perceive that less heat is generated (p=0.021). We found no sex/gender differences for any parameters. Conclusions: A taped mask is well tolerated during light and moderate exercise intensity but reduces maximal exercise capacity.

“…Variables related to breathing pattern and gas exchange were included in the model. Di Paco et al [8] used ventilatory parameters to evaluate professional soccer players' performance. Relation between minute ventilation and oxygen uptake at peak treadmill exercises was constructed for the study.…”

Many people nowadays do physical activities to improve long-term health, strengthen muscles and bones and get emotional and mental benefits. During physical activity, rate and depth of breathing increase because working muscles need extra oxygen in order to produce more energy. The purpose of this study is to investigate the breathing pattern of healthy human in response to different levels of physical activity measured by distance and duration. Spirometric measurement of breathing parameters of five male participants at rest (sitting and standing) and response to different levels of physical activity (walking, jogging and running) was performed. Using the spirometry data, mathematical models were developed to describe the resulting breathing patterns. The data and the model were used for the analysis of breathing patterns. There was small variation of corresponding breathing parameters for a subject during sitting and standing at rest. Increasing the level of physical activity raised the respiratory characteristic such as tidal volume, breathing frequency and flow rate. The average and peak inspiratory and expiratory flow rates were obtained for the five breathing conditions. The peak inspiratory air flow rate in response to running was 3.4 times that of walking. It was 3.7 times for expiration. Breathing patterns of any two individuals are different. The human breathing is highly affected by the level of physical activity we are doing. The study can help to create awareness regarding breathing pattern related to physical activity and to choose appropriate physical activity.
