Ivan Pellejero Posted September 27, 2012 Share Posted September 27, 2012 I made another post about this but as I searched I found some researches that point out that after switching from CH's to fats the endurance athletes did not do any better than the CH group and even had a rate of exertion higher than the rest, those investigations pointed out that with the fat adaptation comes an impairment of the body to oxidize CH's wich decreased the ability of the body to manage energy in an anaerobic manner as in strenght training. Those researches where performed in cyclists and tri athletes because they where to benefit the most from the continuous energy provided by fats, but it wasn't the case either. So my big question is, wich is the real benefit of becoming fat adapted for the strenght seeker if it impairs glucose oxidation?This are the investigations: http://www.aleixo.com/biblioteca/obesid ... s/FAT2.pdfhttp://www.pponline.co.uk/encyc/dietary ... ment-31178http://www.ausport.gov.au/ais/nutrition ... adaptation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
