Rapid Onset Vasodilation: Impact of Cardiorespiratory Fitness
Abstract
Higher cardiorespiratory fitness is associated with greater vascular function that leads to improved regulation of skeletal muscle blood flow during exercise. Rapid onset vasodilation (ROV) describes the immediate increase in blood flow following a single contraction, which is integral to support greater blood flow during exercise. As such, blood flow regulation during exercise hyperemia is important. However, it is unclear if cardiorespiratory fitness plays a role in ROV of small muscle mass in young, healthy individuals.
