Overreaching (OVR) is defined as the initial phase of overtraining syndrome and is known as a metabolic imbalance leading to short-term fatigue. Exercise increases reactive oxygen species production, which can oxidize intracellular structures impairing cell function and thus leads to OVR process. The aim of this work is to study the behavior of oxidative stress markers in subjects submitted to an OVR protocol. Thirty rats were divided in exercise and control group, and submitted to an 8-week-endurance training (ET) and a 3-week-OVR protocol. Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARs), reactive carbonylated derivatives (RCD), glutathione reductase (GR), catalase (CAT) and citrate synthase (CS) activities and stress protein HSP72 were measured in soleus (SO), extensor digital longus (EDL) and semitendinuous (ST) muscles. ET induced significant enhancement (P<0.05) in CS, GR, CAT, TBARs, RCD and HSP72 in SO, EDL and ST. OVR induced higher levels (P<0.05) of TBARs, RCD and HSP72 compared with ET only in SO, while in EDL and ST all measured parameters ranged at same levels reached during ET. We concluded that stress-induced OVR protocol is fiber type dependent, the SO muscle fiber type I being the most affected by this treatment.

Given the potential of reactive oxygen species to damage intracellular proteins during subsequent bouts of muscle contractions, it was suggested that, when this production exceeds the antioxidant capacity, the preexisting antioxidant pathways may be complemented by the synthesis of the defense mechanism represented by heat shock proteins (HSPs), stress proteins with the function of repair and maintaining protein folding. To test this hypothesis, we analyzed reactive carbonyl derivatives in plasma and the expression of HSP72 and activities of enzymes from the oxidative and antioxidant defense systems in the soleus muscle of sedentary rats and rats trained by two protocols: continuous and intermittent. We analyzed all three groups at rest and 2 h after acute exercise. After 8 wk of training, the animals from both groups clearly demonstrated higher resistance to exercise. Both trained groups showed significantly higher citrate synthase, catalase, and glutathione reductase activities than the control group (P < 0.01). After acute exercise, catalase and glutathione reductase activities significantly decreased (P < 0.01) and plasma reactive carbonyl derivatives significantly increased (P < 0.05) in the sedentary group, suggesting an oxidative-stress condition as responsible for exhaustion in this group. Finally, after acute exercise, the induction of HSP72 expression occurred only in the sedentary group, suggesting that HSP72 acts as a complementary protective mechanism in exercise-induced oxidative stress.
