RESUMO

The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in plasma tryptophan concentration ([TRP]) and kinematic variables in a series of interval training in different percentages of the critical speed (CS) in front crawl. Volunteers were 14 competitive male swimmers with at least four years experience in this style and swimming 48 ± 11 km per week. The subjects performed two different protocols on different days in a 25 m pool: 1) repetitions of 200 and 400 m at maximum intensity (S200 and S400) in random order and separated by at least 24 hours of the CS, 2) two sets of interval training (repetitions of 400 m) until the exhaustion in random order, with minimum interval of 24 hours, including: series with intensity equivalent to 95% of CS (VC95) and series intensity equivalent to 100% of CS (CS100). In both (CS95 and CS100) the participants were required to perform the greatest possible number of repetitions of 400 m in the pre-set speed at intervals of 40 s of passive rest. An underwater light pacer was used. [TRP], plasma concentration of prolactin ([PRL]) and plasma free fatty acids ([FFA]), blood lactate concentration, heart rate (HR) and perceived exertion (PE), and duration of the phases of the stroke model coordination, coordination index (IdC), symmetry or asymmetry of swimming, the average frequency of stroke rate (SR) and average distance traveled per stroke length (SL) were determinated. The main results were: (1) [TRP] and [FFA] showed no differences in CS95 and CS100 (p>0.05); (2) [PRL] showed significant increase in both the CS95 and CS100 (p <0.05); (3) significant increase in [LA] and PE in the CS95 and CS100 (p <0.05); (4) significant increase in SR and reduction in SL in both the CS95 and CS100; (5) IdC values were similar in the CS95 and CS100. Thus, we conclude that in CS95 and CS100 series, there are no changes of [TRP] and [FFA]. Since PE, [LA], [PRL] and HR increased in both series, which indicated the occurrence of fatigue for the exercise performed in conditions of metabolic instability. IdC does not change over a series of intense interval training in both, similar and below, the CS in front crawl.
