| Sumario: | Objective: This study aimed to analyse the influence of Advanced FootwearTechnology (AFT) on biomechanical, muscle damage, metabolic and oxidativestress markers in experienced long-distance runners.Methods: Using a counter-balanced randomized experimental design withtwelve tier 3 male runners, two AFTs were tested: Cloudboom Strike (CS) andCloudboom Echo 3 (CE). All participants completed, in both conditions, a gradedexercise test (GXT) to determine the VT1, followed by a prolonged effort test(60-min) at an intensity 10% above VT1. Finally a GXT to exhaustion to assessthe changes in biomechanical parameters in a fatigued state was performed.24-h before and after each visit, blood samples were drawn for muscle damage,metabolic and oxidative stress determination.Results: Creatin kinase (CK) increased post-visit in both CS and CE (p = 0.026;ES = 0.69 and p = 0.018; ES = 0.59; respectively). However, no other significantdifferences pre- and post-visit were found in lactate dehydrogenase (LDH),Interleukin-6 (IL-6), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), cortisol or total antioxidantstatus (TAS) in either the CS or CE conditions. There were no differences betweenconditions in any of the biomarkers measured, although participants perceivedlower DOMS post-24 h with the CS model (p = 0.016; ES = 0.71). We found noshoe × time interaction in any biomechanical parameter evaluated during theprolonged effort or any variable at any speed stage between footwear conditionsin the GXT to exhaustion.Conclusion: According to our results, both the Cloudboom Strike and theCloudboom Echo 3 models appear to provide minimal biomarker responsesunder these conditions after a 60-min treadmill run, regards to reducingmuscle damage, oxidative and metabolic stress, soreness, and inflammation. |
