    Abstract:
    Indices of external breathing, gas exchange, and circulation were studied during bicycle ergometry and static ergometry of 19 healthy male volunteers which were stopped at critical levels of heart rate, arterial pressure, ECG or subjective fatigue. The bicycle workload maximum averaged 210 Watts, the static ergometric, 224 kg/s. Both types of exercises were characterized by unidirectional shifting of the external breathing and gas exchange indices; however, they were less pronounced at static loads. Arterial pressure and resistance of the peripheral vessels were the only indices of the array the dynamics of which complied with and even exceeded that during bicycling. In contrast to the dynamic muscular load, the maximal dynamics of gas exchange and external breathing during static ergometric workload was observed in the rehabilitation period following restoration of muscle blood flow; this must be taken into account in interpretation of test results. It is concluded that high information virtues of the static ergometric test in the context of predicting aerobatic load tolerance, and similarity of dynamics in the period of rehabilitation hold much promise for using the tests with static muscular loading in aviation and space medicine.
