Sixteen healthy male were randomly assigned to two groups who completed two ICE [three 4-min cycling at 80% peak power output (PPO) with 3-min passive recovery periods followed by exhaustive cycling] tests (ICE-1 and ICE-2). The experimental group (ICED) was deceived of the actual cycling intensity, while the control group (ICEC) was informed of the actual protocol in ICE-2. In ICE-1, both groups were informed of the actual protocol. In ICE-2, root mean square (RMS) calculated from SEMG during submaximal cycling was significantly higher in the ICEC than in the ICED and blood lactate concentration ([La]) was significantly higher in the ICEC than in the ICED. In particular, the difference in RMS between the groups was also observed during the first 4-min cycling, in which there was no difference in [La-] between the groups. These results suggest that the CNS modulates skeletal muscle recruitment due to the prior deception for exercise intensity.Akadémiai KiadóJournal Articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/2115/52747https://eprints.lib.hokudai.ac.jp/dspace/bitstream/2115/52747/1/Acta%20Physiol%20Hung.pdf0231-424XActa Physiologica Hungarica100154632013-03enginfo:doi/10.1556/APhysiol.100.2013.1.5author
