PRE- AND POST-START HORMONE LEVELS IN BLOOD AS AN INDICATOR OF PSYCHO-PHYSIOLOGICAL LOAD WITH JUNIOR JUDO COMPETITORS Hormone levels in blood
@inproceedings{Obmiski2009PREAP, title={PRE- AND POST-START HORMONE LEVELS IN BLOOD AS AN INDICATOR OF PSYCHO-PHYSIOLOGICAL LOAD WITH JUNIOR JUDO COMPETITORS Hormone levels in blood}, author={Zbigniew Obmiński}, year={2009} }
The objective of the study was: (i) identification of pre-start and start stress with junior judo competitors, (ii) analysis of relationship between the hormonal status and the results. The objectives were attained by measurements in 7 judo competitors of cortisol (C) and testosterone (T) concentration in capillary blood taken in the morning on several dates: under neutral conditions (NC), 21 days before the Junior Judo European Championship (-21D), 4 days before the competition (-4D), on the…

The alteration of the urinary steroid profile under the stress

The results of the experiment have shown that psychological stress may cause significant changes in the steroid profile, especially in females, and that major fluctuations of T/Et and A/E ratios under the influence of stressogenic factors and physical activity are unlikely.

The results indicate that the psychological stress associated with competition increases the production of steroid hormones (testosterone, cortisol), and that this phenomenon is more pronounced in older athletes than in younger athletes.

Results would indicate a dissociation of the neural and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis functioning in response to the stress of competition in elite athletes, and the considerable extent to which competition may alter selectively the physiology of stress-related hormones while sparing autonomic cardiac regulation.

The significantly higher lactate, glucose, and alanine levels during the fight for the national championship, presumably induced by the additional stimulation of the anaerobic muscular and hepatic glycogenolysis as well as muscular glycolysis, may be accounted to the fortified EPI secretion caused by emotional strain.
