Metabolic adaptation

Mean response time to reach 63% of steady-state VO2 was faster at 4 days (34.9 +/- 2.4 s) and 9 days (32.5 +/- 1.8 s) of training compared to pretraining (38.1 +/- 2.6 s), and was fastest at 30 days (28.3 +/- 1.0 s).

Endurance training can lead to quicker VO2 responses within the first month, which may enhance performance in submaximal exercise.

StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Mean response time (time taken to reach 63% of steady-state VO2) was faster (P < 0.01) than PRE (38.1 +/- 2.6 s) at both 4D (34.9 +/- 2.4 s) and 9D (32.5 +/- 1.8 s) and was faster (P < 0.01) at 30D than at all other times (28.3 +/- 1.0 s).
