Vascular volumes and hematology in male and female runners and cyclists

Abstract

Abstract To examine the hypothesis that foot-strike hemolysis alters vascular volumes and selected hematological properties is trained athletes, we have measured total blood volume (TBV), red cell volume (RCV) and plasma volume (PV) in cyclists (n = 21) and runners (n = 17) and compared them to those of untrained controls (n = 20). TBV (ml · kg−1) was calculated as the sum of RCV (ml · kg−1) and PV (ml · kg−1) obtained using 51Cr and …
