PG - 2273-2287 LID - 10.1007/s00421-020-04450-1 [doi] AB - PURPOSE: To examine the influence of post-exercise protein feeding upon the adaptive response to endurance exercise training. METHODS: In a randomised parallel group design, 25 healthy men and women completed 6 weeks of endurance exercise training by running on a treadmill for 30-60 min at 70-75% maximal oxygen uptake (VO(2max)) 4 times/week. Participants ingested 1.6 g per kilogram of body mass (g kg BM(-1)) of carbohydrate (CHO) or an isocaloric carbohydrate-protein solution (CHO-P; 0.8 g carbohydrate kg BM(-1) + 0.8 g protein kg BM(-1)) immediately and 1 h post-exercise. Expired gas, blood and muscle biopsy samples were taken at baseline and follow-up. RESULTS: Exercise training improved VO(2max) in both groups (p 0.05). Mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) gene expression was up-regulated in CHO-P (+ 46%; p = 0.025) relative to CHO (+ 4%) following exercise training. CONCLUSION: Post-exercise protein supplementation up-regulated the expression of mTOR in skeletal muscle over 6 weeks of endurance exercise training. However, the magnitude of improvement in VO(2max) was similar between groups.
