The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of high intensity,anaerobic exercise, in the form of cycling, on SCUBA diving. Outcomes are determined by the quantification and subtype of circulating microparticles, complete blood counts, and the quantification of venous gas emboli, measured via transthoracic echocardiography, in the cardiac cavities.

| High intensity exercise | Other | Subjects performed a repeated Wingate protocol for the exercise condition of the study. This consisted of 4, 30 s maximal efforts on a weight-braked cycle ergometer (Monark 894E, Monark Exercise AB, Sweden) with 4 min active recovery between efforts, preceded by a 5 min warm up. The resistance was set at 7.5% bodyweight for the intervals and 2% for the warm up and active recovery periods. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change from baseline values of number of circulating microparticles per microliter of blood | Prior to exercise, prior to diving, 15 and 120 minutes after surfacing |
