Abstract :
PURPOSE :The aim of this study was to describe the plasma volume and albumin(Al) after intensive resistance exercise in active girls. METHODS : 16 healthy girls subjects volunteered to participate in this study. They divided in 2 groups experimental and control. The experimental group drank 15 ml/ kg body wt at before night and at the morning of the experimental days, but the control group did not drank water. They completed three sets of 5 - 7 repetitions of six exercises at an intensity corresponding to 70-80% one repetition maximum (1RM ). Venous blood samples were obtained before exercise , immediately after exercise and 24h of recovery. RESULTS : Al increase significantly following resistance exercise in control group (p ≤ 0/05).Plasma volume decreased in both groups , but in control group was significant(p ≤ 0/05) after 24h of recovery, plasma volume did not show significant changes (p ≤ 0/05) but Al increase significantly in experimental group (p ≤ 0/05).CONCLUSIONS : It seems that the reduction of plasma volume after intense resistance training will not occur if the athletes receive enough water. Also, 24 hours is considered a suitable time for recovery and compensation of plasma volume. In addition, the increase in plasma albumin during the recovery period is not necessarily associated with an increase in plasma volumeKey word : intensive resistance exercise , Albumin , plasma volume.
