J Appl Physiol 108: 283-292, 2010. First published December 3, 2009; doi:10.1152/japplphysiol.01047.2009.-We manipulated the baseline metabolic rate and body position to explore the effect of the interaction between recruitment of discrete sections of the muscle fiber pool and muscle O-2 delivery on pulmonary O-2 uptake (Vo(2)) kinetics during cycle exercise. We hypothesized that phase II Vo(2) kinetics (T-p) in the transition from moderate- to severe-intensity exercise would be significantly slower in the supine than upright position because of a compromise to muscle perfusion and that a priming bout of severe-intensity exercise would return T-p during supine exercise to T-p during upright exercise. Eight male subjects [35 +/- 13 (SD) yr] completed a series of "step" transitions to severe-intensity cycle exercise from an "unloaded" (20-W) baseline and a baseline of moderate-intensity exercise in the supine and upright body positions. T-p was not significantly different between supine and upright exercise during transitions from a 20-W baseline to moderateor severe-intensity exercise but was significantly greater during moderate- to severe-intensity exercise in the supine position (54 +/- 19 vs. 38 +/- 10 s, P < 0.05). Priming significantly reduced T-p during moderate- to severe-intensity supine exercise (34 +/- 9 s), returning it to a value that was not significantly different from T-p in the upright position. This effect occurred in the absence of changes in estimated muscle fractional O-2 extraction (from the near-infrared spectroscopy-derived deoxygenated Hb concentration signal), such that the priming-induced facilitation of muscle blood flow matched increased O-2 utilization in the recruited fibers, resulting in a speeding of Vo(2) kinetics. These findings suggest that, during supine cycling, priming speeds Vo(2) kinetics by providing an increased driving pressure for O-2 diffusion in the higher-order (i.e., type II) fibers, which would be recruited in the transition from moderate- to severe-intensity exercise and are known to be especially sensitive to limitations in O-2 supply.
