The purposes of this study were to: (1) compare the muscle blood volume (Mbv) and oxygenation (Mox) responses on the right and left side erector spinae during the Biering-Sorensen muscle endurance (BSME) test between healthy, low back pain active (LBP-A) and LBP-sedentary (LBP-S) subjects using near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), and (2) determine the relationships between the BSME time and Mbv and Mox. Informed consent was obtained from 30 healthy and 30 chronic LBP subjects. The latter group was subdivided into an active (LBP-A; n = 18) and sedentary (LBP-S; n = 12) subgroups based on physical activity patterns. The groups were age and sex matched. The NIRS probes were placed bilaterally on the erector spinae muscle at the level of the third lumbar vertebrae. The testing protocol was: 2-min resting baseline, BSME to voluntary fatigue, and 4-min recovery. During the BSME Mbv immediately increased for approximately 30-60 s, then showed an asymptote, and a steady decline towards the baseline at termination. Mox demonstrated either an initial increase followed by a systematic decrease until the termination of the BSME, or a systematic decrease throughout the BSME until termination. The LBP-S subjects showed a reduced Mox-range and slower Mox (1/2) recovery time on the left side suggesting a reduced aerobic capacity of the erector spinae muscle in this group. Significant correlations were noted between BSME time and the pooled values of Mox-delta and-range only in the LBP-A group. These observations suggest that factors other than erector spinae aerobic capacity can influence BSME performance.
