title: The effect of different recovery methods on blood lactate removal in wrestlers.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The first aim of this study was to compare the VO₂at lactate threshold (LT) and maximum rate of fat oxidation (Fat(max)) intensity in wrestlers. A secondary aim was to compare the different recovery trials in wrestlers for finding effective methods of lactate removal post-match.
  
  
  METHODS
  Eight wrestlers (mean ± SD; age, 23.2 ± 1 year; VO(2max), 55.2 ± 3.4 mL.min⁻¹.kg⁻¹) completed four recovery trials in a counter-balanced order. Maximal oxygen uptake (VO(2max)), Fat(max), individual anaerobic threshold (IAT), individual ventilatory threshold (IVT), and LT were determined during a graded exercise test. Different recovery methods were performed at a similar time of the day after three 2 min wrestling match. Lactate concentration was obtained at rest, and at 0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 min of post-match.
  
  
  RESULTS
  In wrestler, Fat(max) was significantly correlated with LT (r=0.47, P<0.05) and lactate concentration (mean ± SD) significantly increased during the match from (1.7 ± 0.2 mmol.L⁻¹) to (15.1 ± 1.3 mmol.L⁻¹). At 5 minute, IVT method provides greater reduce in blood lactate (79% ∆La) and in other time point (10, 15 and 20 min) Fat(max) intensity provides more reduce.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Fat(max) intensity is the most effective method for removal lactate concentration in wrestlers. There may be a relationship between improve in endurance capacity and training at the Fat(max) intensity.
