Abstract
The effect that exercise induced blood volume (BV) changes may have on the concentrations of leucocyte and lymphocyte subpopulations following exercise is controversial. Eight nationally ranked swimmers undertook 15x100 m swimming intervals (ITS) at 70% and 95% of maximal exercise intensity separated by 2 min recovery periods. Venous blood samples were collected prior to exercise (PRE), immediately post exercise (POST) and at 30, 60, 120 and 150-min post exercise. Control samples were taken on a rest day (R).
