Un effort moins intense pour diminuer le cortisol?
Posté: 19/10/2008 09h31Characterization of the cortisol response to incremental exercise in physically active young men
In conclusion, the present findings refute the concept that low intensity exercise will not provoke a significant change in blood cortisol levels and suggest the response to incremental exercise involving increasing exercise workloads (i.e., intensities) are not entirely linear in nature. Specifically, a sigmoid curve more highly accurately characterizes the cortisol response to such exercise.
