Free living energy expenditure in post menopausal women before and after exercise training

Article Abstract:

This article examines the effects of an eight-week exercise protocol on the energy expenditure of previously sedentary postmenopausal women during regular daily activities. Findings indicate that physical training resulted in decreased heart rate but did not significantly influence factors like body composition, energy intake, or energy expenditure.

Variability in exercise capacity and metabolic response during endurance exercise after a low carbohydrate diet

Article Abstract:

The impact of altered blood glucose concentrations on exercise metabolism and performance after a low carbohydrate (CHO) diet is investigated. Maintenance of euglycemia in the CHO-depleted state might have an ergogenic effect but the effect is highly variable between individuals and independent of changes in CHO oxidation.

The effects of medium-chain triacylglycerol and carbohydrate ingestion on ultra-endurance exercise performance

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to determine if medium-chain triacylglycerol (MCT), ingested in combination with carbohydrate (CHO), would change substrate metabolism and improve simulated competitive ultra-endurance cycling performance. It was concluded that MCTs ingested before exercise and co-ingested with CHO during exercise did not change substrate metabolism and it compromised an immediate performance during prolonged ultra-endurance cycling exercise.
