The cardiovascular performance of salmonids in aquaculture can be impaired by acute climate warming, posing risks for fish survival. Exercise training and functional feeds have been shown to be cardioprotective in mammals but their action on the fish heart and its upper thermal performance has not been studied. To investigate this, rainbow trout were trained at a moderate water velocity of 1 body length per second (bl s⁻¹) for 6 h per day, either alone or in combination with one of two functional feed-supplements, allicin and fucoidan. After 6 weeks of exercise training and feeding, maximum heart rate and the temperature coefficient of heart rate were significantly higher in the trained fish as compared to untrained ones. There was a slight increase in hematocrit in trained control fish reared on a normal diet (TC group) compared to untrained fish fed with the same diet (CC). This implies that exercise training enhanced oxygen delivery to trout tissues via an increase of cardiac blood flow in warm water. However, cardiac thermal tolerance was not affected by exercise training or feeding, except from the temperature of peak heart rate which was higher in the trained group fed with fucoidan supplement (TF) as compared to the untrained group fed with same diet (CF). Allicin supplement caused a significant reduction in the maximum heart rate and the temperature coefficient of heart rate, especially in trained fish, while fucoidan supplement did not cause any effect on heart rate. No differences were observed in growth performance among groups. However, fish fed with fucoidan-supplemented diet had a slight reduction in feed conversion efficiency. We suggest further investigations to understand the antagonistic effect of allicin supplemental feeding and exercise training on cardiovascular performance. More studies are also required to investigate if other exercise training intensities could increase cardiac thermal tolerance.
