Mr. Hayato Tsukamoto (Research Fellow (DC1), Japan Society for the Promotion of Science) is a Graduate Student in Sport and Health Science of Ritsumeikan University, and his research, collaborated with Associate Professor Takeshi Hashimoto and Professor Shigehiko Ogoh in Department of Biomedical Engineering of Toyo University, has been accepted and published in Physiology & Behavior. In this study, Tsukamoto et al. revealed that lactate accumulation decreased with repeated high-intensity interval exercise (HIIE). Moreover, although their previous paper showed that HIIE could prolong improvement in post-exercise executive function (EF) in comparison with traditional moderate-intensity continuous exercise (Tsukamoto H et al. Physiol Behav, 2016), repeated HIIE with less lactate production/accumulation was accompanied by a shorter positive effect on EF. This finding suggests that exercise-induced production/accumulation of lactate may play an important role in improvement of post-exercise EF. A potential link between lactate accumulation and EF should be further elucidated.
