..."it cannot really explain the significant improvement in running performance. Indeed, as oxygen supply and demand are adequately matched during submaximal exercise in healthy men, the rHuEpo-induced augmented oxygen transport capacity cannot be the reason of the improvement in time trial running"
So the concept of 'increased oxygen transport capacity' does not extend to increased oxygen delivery.
What should be measured is the effects of adrenaline, which will take oxygen uptake to its natural peak without compromising oxygen economy.
Hmmm, maybe you missed the submaximal part?
