Description
Summary:Hormonal mechanisms of metabolic reactions regulation during chronic muscle loads determine the course of recovery processes in athletes' body. Nutrients of various compositions intake (mainly protein foods) affects the hormonal relationship of anabolic and catabolic hormones and can act as a factor in correcting the damaging effect of intense physical activity on the human body, having a modulating effect on metabolism. In this research, the consistency of the anabolic index as a biomarker and its dynamics changes when taking dietary protein were determined. The aim of this research is analysis of postprandial (after protein intake) dynamics of changes in the content of cortisol and testosterone in athletes' blood serum and the anabolic index as biomarkers of functional tension in different background conditions. Materials and methods. During the research 2 series were performed. The scheme of the serties is as follows: first series: food + load, the second series: load + food. The hormone content and anabolic index were determined in 12 athletes 15, 45, 75 and 105 minutes after physical activity (60 minutes) in different conditions of protein intake. Reserarch results. In the first series, athletes had a 1.6-fold decrease in cortisol concentration after 75 minutes and 2.2-fold after 105 minutes, the anabolism index increased 2.2-fold by 105 minutes of the recovery period. In the second series, no significant changes in the concentration of cortisol were registered. There was an increase in the anabolism index by 82.4%, relative to the value of this indicator in the first series. In both series of the research, testosterone concentration in the athletes' blood serum was little affected by the intake of protein food against the background of a significant increase in the anabolism index. Conclusion. It has been established that protein food is able to have a modeling effect on reducing the stress level of athletes' hormonal background.
