Book Effects of Carbohydrate   Protein Co ingestion During and Following Exercise on Cardiovascular Adaptations and Exercise Tolerance During Intensified Cycle Training

Download or read book Effects of Carbohydrate Protein Co ingestion During and Following Exercise on Cardiovascular Adaptations and Exercise Tolerance During Intensified Cycle Training written by and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction: This study investigated the effects of carbohydrate and protein (CHO+Pro) supplementation during intensified training on cardiovascular adaptations and cycling performance. Methods: Five cyclists (VO2peak = 62.6 ± 10.7 ml/kg/min) performed two 27-day training protocols while receiving either CHO or CHO+Pro supplements. The exercise protocols consisted of 7 days of normal training (NT), 10 days of intensified cycle training (ICT; 100% increase in average training duration versus NT), and 10 days of reduced volume training (RVT; reduction in training duration to 60% of NT). Performance was assessed by a 30-km time trial following 120 min of constant-load cycling and VO2peak testing. Other physiological measures were assessed at rest (heart rate, hematocrit, hemoglobin, and albumin) and during exercise (heart rate, ventilation, RER, RPE, VO2, glucose, and lactate). Supplements were consumed during exercise (750 ml·hr-1; CHO = 6% concentration; CHO+PRO = 6% CHO, 2% Pro concentrations) and immediately following exercise (9.93 ml of fluid·kg BW- 1; CHO = 1.2 g CHO·kg BW-1; CHO+PRO = 1.2 g CHO·kg BW-1 + 0.3 g Pro·kg BW-1). Data was analyzed using magnitude-based inferences. Results: Time to complete the 30-km TT and average TT power were 'likely' impaired following ICT, with no differences between treatments. Following RVT, time to complete the 30-km TT and average TT power were 'likely' improved versus ICT, with no differences between treatments. Between NT and ICT constant-load HR significantly decreased (independent of treatment), with a 'very likely' larger reduction with CHO+Pro (135±13 bpm to 128±10 bpm) versus CHO (133±15 bpm to 132±13 bpm). Between NT and RVT, constant-load HR also 'very likely' declined to a greater extent with CHO+Pro (135±13 bpm to 132±14) than with CHO (133±15 to 138±16 bpm). Serum albumin was 'likely' increased following ICT and RVT (independent of treatment), but differences between treatments were 'unclear'. Conclusion: These findings suggest exercising heart rates in well trained-cyclists are attenuated with carbohydrate and protein supplementation, although the cause of the reduced in HR is unclear. In addition, the implications of these findings require further study, as overall exercise tolerance and adaptations following intensified training were similar to those observed with carbohydrate supplementation.

Book Nutrient Timing

Download or read book Nutrient Timing written by Chad M. Kerksick and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2011-10-20 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sports nutrition has evolved beyond what to eat and how much to eat to now include the question of when to eat. A hot topic in sports nutrition, nutrient timing is a dietary concept that takes into account time as a missing dimension in athletic performance and recovery. Not only is the consumption of nutrients in ideal amounts and proportions important, but the timing with which they are administered is also of prime importance—the right nutrients at the ideal time to affect performance and muscular growth. Nutrient Timing: Metabolic Optimization for Health, Performance, and Recovery presents the most authoritative text to date that scientifically examines the contemporary topic of nutrient timing. Worldwide research continues to rapidly explore the metabolic impact of nutrient timing and how its proper application may help to improve performance. With contributions from scientists and practitioners in the field, this book gathers the latest evidence-based information on this cutting-edge area. The chapters cover macronutrients—carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids—and their role in sporting activity, as well as an examination of vitamins and minerals. The core of the book focuses on pre-exercise, mid-exercise, and post-exercise considerations for both resistance and aerobically mediated activity. Using the models presented, individuals may improve performance, promote optimal adaptations to training, maximize recovery, and facilitate healthy interactions with their environment. The final chapters of the book describe future concepts in nutrient timing, including the impact of protein source in the context of timing, how nutrient timing can fit in with a comprehensive recovery program, and the application of the ideas discussed in unique populations such as the aged, the military, and populations interested in weight loss. This text provides solid data from the scientists themselves, giving researchers, teachers, coaches, and medical and health care professionals the necessary information they need to accurately and effectively determine how nutrients can impact certain outcomes and, most importantly, how to practically apply this knowledge.

Download or read book Dietary Supplements written by B. Bryan Haycock and published by Momentum Press. This book was released on 2016-01-22 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an overview of dietary supplements including their definition, how they are manufactured and regulated, what forms they are sold in, and what the most popular products are. An effort is made to provide relevant information on the background, mechanism of action, and the clinical evidence demonstrating their efficacy or lack thereof. This book is important given the popularity of dietary supplements and the controversies around their sale and use. Negative portrayal of the industry by the media, and unscrupulous companies that make false and misleading claims about their products, fuel the controversy. At the same time, epidemiological data demonstrates that the proper use of dietary supplements could save thousands of lives and billions of dollars in health care costs. This book is an attempt to contribute an objective perspective on the matter.

Book Cycling Time Trial Performance is Not Enhanced by Either Whey Protein Or L alanine Intake During Prolonged Exercise

Download or read book Cycling Time Trial Performance is Not Enhanced by Either Whey Protein Or L alanine Intake During Prolonged Exercise written by and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous studies have reported that adding protein (PRO) to a carbohydrate (CHO) solution can enhance endurance performance. This ergogenic effect may be a function of additional calories from supplemental protein/amino acids, but this thesis has not been directly examined. Additionally, L-alanine (ALA) is readily oxidized when provided during exercise; the impact that this has on metabolism and prolonged endurance performance is unknown. The purpose of this investigation was to assess performance and various cardiovascular and metabolic outcomes during prolonged cycling, to independently gauge the efficacy of whey PRO hydrolysate and ALA supplementation. Eight trained male and female cyclists (age: 22.3±2.0 years, weight: 70.0±2.8 kg, VO2max: 59.4±1.7 ml·kg-1·min-1) performed 120 min of constant-load cycling (55% of peak power, 161.9±7.4 W) followed by a 30-km time trial (TT) under placebo (PLA), PRO, and ALA conditions. TT performance was not different between treatments (PLA: 57.6±1.6 min, ALA: 58.8±1.5 min, PRO: 58.8±1.8 min). VE, VO2, heart rate, rating of perceived exertion, blood glucose, blood lactate, and gastrointestinal distress were also similar across experimental conditions. Conversely, serum interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels following 120 min of cycling were elevated above rest with PLA (pre: 0.56±0.16, post: 3.14±0.84) and ALA (pre: 1.14±0.46, post: 2.62±0.71) (p
