| Popis: | Purpose: Individual responses to aerobic training vary from almost none to a 40 % increase in aerobic fitness in healthy subjects. We hypothesized that the baseline self-rated mental stress may influence to the training response. Methods: The study population included 44 healthy sedentary subjects (22 women) and 14 controls. The laboratory controlled training period was 2 weeks, including 5 sessions a week at an intensity of 75 % of the maximum heart rate (HR) for 40 min/session. Self-rated mental stress was assessed by inquiry prior to the training period from 1 (low psychological resources and a lot of stressors in my life) to 10 (high psychological resources and no stressors in my life), respectively. Results: Mean peak oxygen uptake (Vo2peak) increased from 34±7 to 37±7 ml•kg-1•min-1 in training group (p |
