    A cloth facemask increased ratings of perceived exertion and reduced affect, without affecting sprint or muscular performance
    (2023) DANTAS, Matheus; BARBOZA-NETO, Rui; GUARDIEIRO, Natalia Mendes; PINTO, Ana Lucia de Sa; GUALANO, Bruno; SAUNDERS, Bryan
    We determined the effects of wearing a cloth facemask on exercise performance and subjective responses during training of track and field athletes. Track and field athletes (n = 10, sprinters and long jumpers) performed two training sessions with and without a three-layered antiviral cloth facemask. The training session simulated the specific demands of the sport, consisting of five 30-m sprints, interspersed with passive 4-min intervals. Countermovement jump performance was assessed pre- and post-sprints, and ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) and affect were collected throughout. There was no evidence of condition*time interactions for sprint time (P = 0.21) or acceleration (P = 0.47). There was weak evidence of a condition effect on RPE (P = 0.05), though no condition*time interaction (P = 0.35). There was moderate evidence of a condition*time interaction for affect (P = 0.02), with lower ratings following sprints 3, 4 and 5 when using the mask. These findings suggest that wearing a mask may negatively impact subjective feelings of training without necessarily harming sprint performance.

    Performing moderate to severe activity is safe and tolerable for healthy youth while wearing a cloth facemask
    (2023) MARTICORENA, Felipe Miguel; BARRETO, Gabriel Castanho; GUARDIEIRO, Natalia Mendes; ESTEVES, Gabriel Perri; OLIVEIRA, Tamires Nunes; OLIVEIRA, Luana Farias de; PINTO, Ana Lucia de Sa; RIANI, Luiz; PRADO, Danilo Mendes; SAUNDERS, Bryan; GUALANO, Bruno
    ObjectiveTo investigate if a cloth facemask could affect physiological and perceptual responses to exercise at distinct exercise intensities in healthy young individuals. MethodsNine participants (sex, female/male: 6/3; age: 13 +/- 1 years; VO2peak: 44.5 +/- 5.5 mL/kg/min) underwent a progressive square-wave test at four intensities: (1) 80% of ventilatory anaerobic threshold (VAT), (2) VAT, and (3) 40% between VAT and _VO2peak wearing a triple-layered cloth facemask or not. Participants then completed a final stage to exhaustion at a running speed equivalent to the maximum achieved during the cardio-respiratory exercise test (Peak). Physiological, metabolic, and perceptual measures were measured. ResultsMask did not affect spirometry (forced vital capacity, peak expiratory flow, forced expiratory volume; all p >= 0.27), respiratory (inspiratory capacity, end-expiratory volume [EELV] to functional vital capacity ratio, EELV, respiratory frequency [Rf], tidal volume [VT], Rf/VT, end tidal carbo dioxide pressure, ventilatory equivalent to carbon dioxide ratio; all p >= 0.196), hemodynamic (heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure; all p > 0.41), ratings of perceived exertion (p = 0.04) or metabolic measures (lactate; p = 0.78) at rest or at any exercise intensity. ConclusionsThis study shows that performing moderate to severe activity is safe and tolerable for healthy youth while wearing a cloth facemask.

    A Cloth Facemask Causes No Major Respiratory or Cardiovascular Perturbations During Moderate to Heavy Exercise
    (2023) GUARDIEIRO, Natalia Mendes; BARRETO, Gabriel; MARTICORENA, Felipe Miguel; OLIVEIRA, Tamires Nunes; OLIVEIRA, Luana Farias de; PINTO, Ana Lucia de Sa; PRADO, Danilo Marcelo Leite do; SAUNDERS, Bryan; GUALANO, Bruno
    Purpose: Investigate whether a cloth facemask could affect physiological and perceptual responses to exercise at distinct exercise intensities in untrained individuals. Methods: Healthy participants (n = 35; 17 men, age 30 [4] y, and 18 women, age 28 [5] y) underwent a progressive square wave test at 4 intensities: (1) 80% of ventilatory anaerobic threshold; (2) ventilatory anaerobic threshold; (3) respiratory compensation point; and (4) exercise peak (Peak) to exhaustion, 5-minute stages, with or without a triple-layered cloth facemask (Mask or No-Mask). Several physiological and perceptual measures were analyzed. Results: Mask reduced inspiratory capacity at all exercise intensities (P < .0001). Mask reduced respiratory frequency (P = .001) at Peak (-8.3 breaths-min-1; 95% confidence interval [CI], -5.8 to -10.8), respiratory compensation point (-6.9 breaths-min-1; 95% CI, - 4.6 to -9.2), and ventilatory anaerobic threshold (-6.5 breaths-min-1; 95% CI, -4.1 to -8.8), but not at Baseline or 80% of ventilatory anaerobic threshold. Mask reduced tidal volume (P < .0001) only at respiratory compensation point (-0.5 L; 95% CI, - 0.3 to -0.6) and Peak (-0.8 L; 95% CI, -0.6 to -0.9). Shallow breathing index was increased with Mask only at Peak (11.3; 95% CI, 7.5 to 15.1). Mask did not change HR, lactate, ratings of perceived exertion, blood pressure, or oxygen saturation. Conclusions: A cloth facemask reduced time to exhaustion but had no major impact on cardiorespiratory parameters and had a slight but clinically meaningless impact on respiratory variables at higher intensities. Moderate to heavy activity is safe and tolerable for healthy individuals while wearing a cloth facemask. ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04887714.
