Human muscle metabolism during sprint running

M. E. Cheetham, L. H. Boobis, S. Brooks and C. Williams

Biopsy samples were obtained from vastus lateralis of eight female subjects before and after a maximal 30-s sprint on a nonmotorized treadmill and were analyzed for glycogen, phosphagens, and glycolytic intermediates. Peak power output averaged 534.4 +/- 85.0 W and was decreased by 50 +/- 10% at the end of the sprint. Glycogen, phosphocreatine, and ATP were decreased by 25, 64, and 37%, respectively. The glycolytic intermediates above phosphofructokinase increased approximately 13-fold, whereas fructose 1,6-diphosphate and triose phosphates only increased 4- and 2-fold. Muscle pyruvate and lactate were increased 19 and 29 times. After 3 min recovery, blood pH was decreased by 0.24 units and plasma epinephrine and norepinephrine increased from 0.3 +/- 0.2 nmol/l and 2.7 +/- 0.8 nmol/l at rest to 1.3 +/- 0.8 nmol/l and 11.7 +/- 6.6 nmol/l. A significant correlation was found between the changes in plasma catecholamines and estimated ATP production from glycolysis (norepinephrine, glycolysis r = 0.78, P less than 0.05; epinephrine, glycolysis r = 0.75, P less than 0.05) and between postexercise capillary lactate and muscle lactate concentrations (r = 0.82, P less than 0.05). The study demonstrated that a significant reduction in ATP occurs during maximal dynamic exercise in humans. The marked metabolic changes caused by the treadmill sprint and its close simulation of free running makes it a valuable test for examining the factors that limit performance and the etiology of fatigue during brief maximal exercise.
