Popis: | One hundred fourteen sedentary volunteers (34 +/- 8 years) took part in an endurance training study to be completed after 18-20 months with a marathon. Ultimately, 60 males and 18 females achieved that goal. The training program, carefully supervised, was divided into three periods with a maximum of 45-, 70-, and 110-km week training volume and concluded with a performance race of 15, 25, and 42.2 km, respectively. Three days before and 3 and 5 days after each race, 35 subjects were selected to perform a progressive treadmill test and the remaining subjects participated in field tests of 400 and 1000 m. A significant decrease in half-life time of CK enzyme plasma activity after running long distances in the course of the study from 20 h to 13 h was observed. Based on plasma enzyme activity and supposing that the total enzyme content left the muscle fiber, the estimated amount of muscle damage was found to be small. A gender difference in plasma enzyme activity increase (females demonstrated a lower increase) occurred only after the marathon. |
