Annotation
This article presents the results of a study of neuronal metabolism in the brain
of athletes with different types of autonomic heart rate regulation during submaximal
power testing. Twenty-four Smolensk football Candidate Masters of Sports participa-
ted in the study. It was found that at the beginning of the experiment, the standard load
did not significantly increase the athletes’ omega potential or change the dynamic charac-
teristics of interhemispheric asymmetry, which was considered a sign of neurophysiological
stability in their cerebral metabolism. The training process resulted in a significant increase
in submaximal power in all athlete groups. The degree of acidosis of various origins was de-
termined by the severity of the dominant autonomic heart rate regulation circuit, rather than
by the level of increase in specific performance during bicycle ergometric testing. In athle-
tes with a moderate predominance of autonomic and central mechanisms (types III and I),
physical exercise did not disrupt the domed distribution of omega potential; an adaptive
response was observed, shifting from the dominant hemisphere to the subdominant hemi-
sphere. In contrast, in extreme forms of autonomic support (types IV and II), hypertrophied
and reduced responses were observed, with no change in the interhemispheric gradient when
recording the maximum level of neuronal metabolism in the occipital region. Physiological (types III and I) autonomic regulation of heart rate proved to be the most resistant to cerebral
hypoxia caused by submaximal exercise.
