Abstrakt: | Background: The exclusive effect of caffeine ingestion on exercise thermoregulation is unclear; data indicate that caffeine may have a positive effect, a negative effect, or no effect. Methods: Rectal (TRE) and mean skin (TSK) temperatures, skin heat conductance (HSK), and sweat rate (MSW) were measured during 30 min of rest and subsequent 70 min of submaximal cycle-ergometer exercise (67% VO2PEAK) in 11 aerobically conditioned men (mean +/- SD 29 +/- 6 yr, 49 +/- 6 mL x min(-1) x kg(-1) VO2PEAK) under two conditions: a caffeine (10 mg x kg(-1) ingestion (CI) session and a noncaffeine ingestion (NCI) control session. Results: There were no significant differences in physiological or thermoregulatory parameters during exercise: X (+/-SE) end exercise levels for the NCI and CI sessions, respectively, were VO2 = 2.50 +/- 0.09 vs. 2.55 +/- 0.09 L x min(-1); heart rate = 145 +/- 7 vs. 145 +/- 5 bpm; HSK = 30 +/- 3 vs. 28 +/- 3 kcal x m(-2) x h(-1) x degrees C(-1); MSW = 393 +/- 35 vs. 378 +/- 36 g x m(-2) x h(-1); and TRE = 38.3 +/- 0.2 vs. 38.4 +/- 0.1 degrees C. Control TSK was lower than that for CI by 0.4 to 0.5 degrees C at rest and during exercise. Conclusion: Ingestion of a high level (10 mg x kg(-1) of caffeine has no effect on skin heat conductance, sweating, or the rate of increase and final level of rectal temperature during moderate, submaximal leg exercise. |
