N2 - Female subjects (N = 12) aged 19-36 performed prior exercise (PE) consisting of bench-stepping designed to raise heart rate (HR) to 140 bpm, which was maintained for 1 min. After the PE, the subjects rested for 0, 30, or 60 sec before starting a 10-min bench-stepping criterion task (CT). They also performed the CT once without any PE. It was found that performance following PE +30 sec rest and PE +60 sec rest was significantly better than following no PE, while PE +0 did not differ significantly from no PE. The improved performance following PE +30 and PE +60 was attributed to the mobilization of the O2 transport system during PE which reduced the O2 deficit at the beginning of the CT, leaving more of the anaerobic capacity available for use later in the CT.
