Renal responses to exercise-induced lactic acidosis

Five healthy males performed four 30-s bouts of maximal exercise, separated by 4 min of rest, on an isokinetic cycle ergometer. Arterial blood and urine samples were taken from indwelling catheters at rest, immediately postexercise, and for 90 min of recovery. Inulin was continuously infused to measure glomerular filtration rate (GFR). Arterial plasma [Na+], [K+], and [Cl-] increased (P less than 0.05) with exercise; plasma lactate …
