Abstract

1. Five subjects trained for 8 weeks on a bicycle ergometer for an average of 40 min/day, four times a week at a work load requiring 80% of the maximal oxygen uptake (V̇O 2 max.). V̇O 2 max. determinations were performed, and muscle biopsies from the quadriceps femoris muscle (vastus lateralis) were taken before, as well as repeatedly during, the training period. The muscle biopsies were histochemically stained for fibre‐types (myofibrillar ATPase) and capillaries (amylase‐PAS method), and analysed biochemically for succinate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase activities. 2. The training programme resulted in a 16% increase in V̇O 2 max., a 20% increase in capillary density, a 20% increase in mean fibre area, and an approximately 40% increase in the activities of succinate dehydrogenase and cytochrome oxidase. 3. The capillary supply to type I, IIA and IIB fibres, expressed as the mean number of capillaries in contact with each fibre‐type, relative to fibre‐type area, increased equally. 4. The present study shows that endurance training constitutes a powerful stimulus for capillary proliferation in human skeletal muscle.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
