Randomized Controlled TrialHyperventilation before resistance exercise: cerebral hemodynamics and orthostasis.
Hyperventilation performed by athletes during preparation for resistance exercise might contribute to reports of postexercise orthostatic instability. ⋯ Hyperventilation before lower-body resistance exercise exacerbates CBFV(MEAN) reductions during standing. Increased symptoms of orthostatic instability are associated with the magnitude of reductions in both MAP and CBFV(MEAN).
