Methods: The study involved 11 healthy, physically active men (mean maximal oxygen uptake: 52.6 \u00b1 8.2 mL\u2219kg1\u2219min\u22121). During four visits to a laboratory with a minimum interval of 72 h, they participated in (1) an incremental test on a cycle ergometer; (2) a familiarization session; (3) and (4) cross-over SIE sessions. SIE consisted of 6 \u00d7 10-s all-out bouts with 4-min active recovery. During one of the sessions the participants breathed through a 1200-mL ARDSv (SIEARDS). Results: The work performed was significantly higher by 4.4% during SIEARDS, with no differences in the fatigue index. The mean respiratory ventilation was significantly higher by 13.2%, and the mean oxygen uptake was higher by 31.3% during SIEARDS. Respiratory muscle strength did not change after the two SIE sessions. In SIEARDS, the mean pH turned out significantly lower (7.26 vs. 7.29), and the mean HCO3\u2013 concentration was higher by 7.6%. Average La\u2212 and rating of perceived exertion (RPE) did not differ between the sessions. Conclusions: Using ARDSV during SIE provokes respiratory acidosis, causes stronger acute physiological responses, and does not increase RPE.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijerph17249485","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,18]],"date-time":"2020-12-18T11:42:09Z","timestamp":1608291729000},"page":"9485","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Acute Effects of Using Added Respiratory Dead Space Volume in a Cycling Sprint Interval Exercise Protocol: A Cross-Over Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7697-6881","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Natalia","family":"Danek","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiology and Biochemistry, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, University School of Physical Education in Wroclaw, 51-612 Wroclaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1296-0434","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kamil","family":"Michalik","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Human Motor Skills, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, University School of Physical Education in Wroclaw, 51-612 Wroclaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marcin","family":"Smolarek","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiology and Biochemistry, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, University School of Physical Education in Wroclaw, 51-612 Wroclaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Marek","family":"Zato\u0144","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Physiology and Biochemistry, Faculty of Physical Education and Sport, University School of Physical Education in Wroclaw, 51-612 Wroclaw, Poland"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,18]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"494","DOI":"10.1136\/bjsports-2015-095841","article-title":"Effects of high-intensity interval training on cardiometabolic health: A systematic review and meta-analysis of intervention studies","volume":"51","author":"Batacan","year":"2017","journal-title":"Br.
