Article Synopsis
- The study investigated how substrate availability affects fuel selection during exercise in endurance-trained cyclists, comparing performance in rested and fatigued conditions.
- Eight male cyclists completed a 90-minute exercise session while measuring lipid oxidation and lipolysis after ingesting sucrose.
- Results indicated that endurance exercise increases fat oxidation and influences fuel selection, emphasizing the importance of lipolysis and free fatty acid availability for effective fat utilization during physical activity.
