Sažetak
The influence of phenamine on static endurance and oxygen consumption was investigated on 18 male subjects by giving them 15 mg phenamine in water suspension. Control experiments were carried out both without phenamine and by giving the subjects chalk suspension in water instead of phenamine. Static work consisted in the subjects' effort to obtain a maximum maintenance of a load of 8,5 kg. Results: Under the influence of phenamine static endurance increased 12.4%. No statistically significant influence of phenamine on the metabolism in rest was found. In the course of work there was no difference in the oxygen comsuption either, but the oxygen debt in the experiments with phenamine was higher. This has proved that under the influence of phenamine the organism increased its working capacity at the expense of the reserves in the organism but did not work more economically as is the case with psychological stimulators. The authors are inclined to explain this by considering psychological stimulators as natural means to mobilize the organism, while drugs such as phenamine seam to produce a »forced« mobilization that does increase work output but is brought about at the expense of those reserves in the organism the lack of which stops fatigue. to be an easily reversible process.
