Hematological profiles of cyclists fluctuates are based on the volume/frequency/intensity of training. The present study examined the effects of training load on the cyclists biochemical profile which may be associated with over training. Twelve male cyclists volunteered to participate in this study. The participants completed a systematic training program which was divided into four phases i.e. phase I (560 km, continuous aerobic training), II (680 km, continuous aerobic training), III (720 km, aerobic and anaerobic interval training) and IV (560 km, continuous aerobic training). Blood samples were collected at the end of each phase. The hemoglobin level of the cyclists increased throughout the training cycle whereas iron level increased till the third phase and decreased in the fourth phase due to alteration in train ing. Hemoglobin level was high during the IV phase and this was due to the lowest volume/frequency of training given to the cyclists in final phase. Total Iron Binding Capacity (TIBC) level was elevated during the competitive phase, due to the high volume / intensity during III phase. The depletion of ferritin was high during phase II which was associated with a 21% increase in training volume after the first phase. The highest intensity, volume and frequency of E2S training (phase III) were associated with a large increase in Creatine Phosphokinase (CPK), Lactate Dehydrogenase (LDH) and cortisol levels, demonstrating a significant decrease in testosterone that showed the over -trained state. Hence, these biochemical markers are important in monitoring athletes training load as these parameters are altered with the training intensity, frequency and volume of training given to the cyclist .
