Abstract:
Objective To explore the relationship between body composition and aerobic exercise ca-pacity of individuals entering the plateau.Methods The body composition of forty-five subjects was as-sessed by using the bioelectrical impedance.All subjects underwent step movement with the step height of 40 cm,at a speed of 25 b/min for 5 minutes on the plain and the simulated low-pressure oxygen chamber at an altitude of 4000 m.Blood oxygen saturation and heart rate before and immediate-ly after exercise were recorded,and the VO2max(mL/kg·min)was calculated.Then,Multiple Linear Re-gression and Pearson correlation analysis were employed to explore the correlation between body compo-sition and VO2max.Moreover,subjects were divided into two groups according to the average value of each body component,and the effect of a single component on the decrease of VO2max in the plateau environment(ΔVO2max,plain-VO2max-plateau-VO2max)was investigated.Results Compared with on the plain,VO2max decreased significantly in the simulated plateau environment.The body composition of all subjects was within the normal range.However,the body mass index(BMI)of 6 subjects(accounting for 13%)exceeded 24 kg/m2.Their muscles of the upper limb and trunk were approximately 95%and required strengthening.Correlation analysis indicated that there was no significant correlation between body composition and VO2max.Compared with the low body water group,the ΔVO2max of the high body water group was significantly lower.Conclusion In the early stage of entering the plateau environment,the aerobic exercise capacity of the human body is reduced,and sufficient water within the normal range helps to improve the aerobic exercise capacity in such environment.
