Cardiorespiratory fitness and oxidative stress: effect of acute maximal aerobic exercise in children and adolescents.
Evaluate the effects of oxidative stress in saliva in young males, according to their cardiorespiratory fitness and taking acute maximal aerobic exercise into consideration. An incremental exercise test (20 meter shuttle run) was used. ⋯ High cardiorespiratory fitness does not seem to be an essential factor effecting in the oxidative stress values before exercise. However, oxidative stress could be greater with more intensity and duration after and acute maximal physical exercise.
