31P-magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to study phosphocreatine (PCr) onset kinetics in exercising human gastrocnemius muscle under varied fractions of inspired O2 (FIO2). Five male subjects performed three identical work bouts (5 min duration; order randomised) at a submaximal workload while breathing 0.1, 0.21 or 1.0 FIO2. Either a single or double exponential model was fitted to the PCr kinetics. The phase I 
(0.1, 38.6 ± 7.5; 0.21, 34.5 ± 7.9; 1.0, 38.6 ± 9.2 s) and amplitude, A1 (0.1, 0.34 ± 0.03; 0.21, 0.28 ± 0.05; 1.0, 0.28 ± 0.03,% fall in PCr) were invariant (both P > 0.05) across FIO2 trials. The initial rate of change in PCr hydrolysis at exercise onset, calculated as A1/1 (%PCr reduction s–1), was the same across FIO2 trials. A PCr slow component (phase II) was present at an FIO2 of 0.1 and 0.21; however, breathing 1.0 FIO2 ablated the slow component. The onset of the slow component resulted in a greater (P
0.05) overall percentage fall in PCr (both phase I and II) as FIO2 decreased (0.43 ± 0.05, 0.34 ± 0.05, 0.28 ± 0.03) for 0.1, 0.21 and 1.0 FIO2, respectively. These data demonstrate that altering FIO2 does not affect the initial phase I PCr onset kinetics, which supports the notion that O2 driving pressure does not limit PCr kinetics at the onset of submaximal exercise. Thus, these data imply that the manner in which microvascular and intracellular PO2 regulates PCr hydrolysis in exercising muscle is not due to the initial kinetic fall in PCr at exercise onset.
