The respiratory system response becomes greater as exercise increases in duration and the demand for oxygen becomes more prevalent. With muscular hypertrophy training we will see greater peaks in breathing rates at the end of each set than we would for strength training as lactate starts to accumulate requiring oxygen to help metabolise it. It may take minutes post exercise for the breathing rate to return to normal with hypertrophy training because of this. Muscular endurance training has a greater reliance on oxygen for energy than hypertrophy training, the work intervals are longer and the rest periods are shorter allowing a minimum of recovery, so the response of the respiratory system is much greater than for hypertrophy training.
Breathing rates will have larger peaks at the end of each work interval due to limited recovery time. Breathing rates will compound over the total duration of the session and stay elevated for longer post workout. Similar responses will occur for anaerobic fitness training. Training to improve aerobic fitness results in responses from the respiratory system that are very similar to the responses of the cardiovascular system for aerobic fitness. Breathing rates remain relatively constant once steady state has been reached as long as the intensity of the exercise remains constant , or fluctuate if the intensity fluctuates, much like the heart rate response to fluctuating intensities.
The largest peaks in breathing rate and the longest periods of EPOC will occur with training for muscular endurance and anaerobic fitness. These types of training with prolonged periods of high intensity work and limited recovery put the greatest demands on the respiratory and cardiovascular systems, and therefore have the greatest acute response.

At higher exercise intensities, increases in plasma potassium decrease in blood PH or increases in hydrogen iron increases in lactate, provide additional stimulation to the inhalation. As through the elevations in catecholamines, notably adrenaline, and also body temperature. The ventral response can be monitored by lung and chest wall mechanoreflex.
And as I mentioned earlier, as you approach maximum ventilation, you may reach the limits of the flow-volume curve, particularly on expiration and there may be mechanical constraints to ventilation. If we look at what happens after training, one of the characteristic adaptations to training is a right shift in the ventilation workload or oxygen uptake curve.
And you can see that the ventilation curve is shifted to the right after training. And you can see the changes in the number of perimeters that have been suggested to affect ventilation during incremental exercise.
The right shift in the left tight curve. A right shift in plasma potassium and slower development of acidosis during incremental exercise. Reduced activation of the muscle ephrins and generally exercise in the trained state feels a bit easier after exercise and these are adaptations that contribute to improved exercise tolerance after training.

However, when oxygen is not present, the ETC cannot proceed which prevents flux through the Krebs cycle and results in a build up of pyruvate.
If this was allowed to continue then glycolysis would stop and no further ATP would be resynthesized. Fortunately, pyruvate can accept the hydrogen carrier, forming lactic acid via lactate dehydrogenase LDH.
The conversion of glycogen to lactic acid yields only 3 mol ATP per molecule of glycogen, but this can occur in the absence of oxygen and the maximum rate of glycolysis can be reached within a few seconds of the onset of exercise.
Fatty acids are more energy dense than glycogen and there are very large stores of fat in adipose tissue. If it is fully oxidized a typical fat palmitate yields molecules of ATP. Given that stores of fat in the body are so vast, they would allow exercise at a maximal intensity i.
However, the rate of ATP resynthesis from fat is too slow to be of great importance during high intensity activity. Therefore, although fat is the preferred substrate and dominates the energy contribution to resting metabolism, carbohydrate stores are available when energy requirements increase, for example at the onset of exercise.
As exercise continues, however, fat metabolism may become more important, particularly if muscle glycogen stores become depleted. Traditionally, protein is not considered to contribute to energy provision except under conditions of starvation or in ultra-endurance events.
This is unsurprising on the basis that most of the protein in the body is functional in nature, for example contractile proteins in skeletal muscle.
Characteristics of type I slow twitch and type IIb fast twitch fibres are summarized in Table 1. The proportion of type I and type II fibres varies in different muscles, with greater proportions of type I fibres in postural muscles. Type I fibres are more suited to prolonged activity as they are more efficient than type II fibres and have a greater reliance on oxidative metabolism of fatty acids and glycogen.
Therefore, during prolonged, low intensity activity, type I fibres will be recruited. However, as the force required increases, larger type II fibres are recruited. If the speed of contraction is rapid, only type II fibres can contribute to force generation since type I fibres cannot produce force at as fast a rate as type II fibres.
There are hereditary differences in the proportion of each type of fibre in a given muscle, which determine to some degree the athletic capabilities of the individual.
For example, some people appear to be more suited to marathon running type I predominant whereas others are born to sprint and jump type II predominant. Ventilation increases linearly with increases in work rate at submaximal exercise intensities. Oxygen consumption also increases linearly with increasing work rate at submaximal intensities. The increase in pulmonary ventilation is attributable to a combination of increases in tidal volume and respiratory rate and closely matches the increase in oxygen uptake and carbon dioxide output.
Breathing capacity, however, does not reach its maximum even during strenuous exercise and it is not responsible for the limitation in oxygen delivery to muscles seen during high intensity activity. Haemoglobin continues to be fully saturated with oxygen throughout exercise in people with normal respiratory function. The changes which occur in arterial pH, P o 2 and P co 2 values during exercise are usually small. Arterial P o 2 often rises slightly because of hyperventilation although it may eventually fall at high work rates.
During vigorous exercise, when sufficient oxygen for flux through the Krebs cycle is not available, the increased reliance on glycolysis results in increased accumulation of lactic acid, which initially leads to an increase in P a co 2.
However, this is counteracted by the stimulation of ventilation and as a result P a co 2 is decreased. This provides some respiratory compensation for further lactic acid production and prevents a decline in blood pH, which remains nearly constant during moderate exercise.
Ventilation increases abruptly in the initial stages of exercise and is then followed by a more gradual increase. The rapid rise in ventilation at the onset of exercise is thought to be attributable to motor centre activity and afferent impulses from proprioceptors of the limbs, joints and muscles.
The mechanism of stimulation following this first stage is not completely understood. Arterial oxygen and carbon dioxide tensions are not sufficiently abnormal to stimulate respiration during exercise. Suggestions have been made that the sensitivity of peripheral chemoreceptors to oscillations in P a o 2 and P a co 2 is responsible for increasing ventilation, even though the absolute values remain stable.
Central chemoreceptors may be readjusted to increase ventilation to maintain carbon dioxide concentrations. Other theories are that the rise in body temperature may play a role, or that collateral branches of neurogenic impulses from the motor cortex to active muscles and joints may stimulate the brain stem and respiratory centre leading to hyperpnoea. Overall, a number of factors have been suggested for the increase in ventilation, which occurs with exercise.
The respiratory rate might remain elevated after heavy exercise for up to 1—2 h. Substrate and oxygen requirements of working skeletal muscles are dramatically elevated above resting requirements. In addition, decreased pH and increased temperature shift the oxygen dissociation curve for haemoglobin to the right in exercising muscle. This assists in unloading more oxygen from the blood into the muscle. During muscular contraction, blood flow is restricted briefly but overall it is enhanced by the pumping action of the muscle.
Whilst muscle and coronary blood flow increase, cerebral blood flow is maintained constant and splanchnic flow diminishes. However, essential organs such as the bowel and kidneys must be protected with some blood flow maintained.
