31P MR spectroscopy enables a non-invasive evaluation of a metabolic response to a given exercise. A combination of this technique with other methods like 1H MRS, spirometry and blood lactate diagnostics improves the application field. Therefore, a broad range of metabolic parameters were acquired during an exercise of a single calf muscle to evaluate the effects of local energy demands on global parameters. We observed high adaptations resulting in good correlations between peripheral and locally measured values.
