PG - 1479-1494 LID - 10.1007/s00421-023-05162-y [doi] AB - Muscle glycogen state and carbohydrate (CHO) supplementation before and during exercise may impact responses to high-intensity interval training (HIIT). This study determined cardiorespiratory, substrate metabolism, muscle oxygenation, and performance when completing HIIT with or without CHO supplementation in a muscle glycogen depleted state. On two occasions, in a cross-over design, eight male cyclists performed a glycogen depletion protocol prior to HIIT during which either a 6% CHO drink (60 g.hr(-1)) or placebo (%CHO, PLA) was consumed. HIIT consisted of 5 x 2 min at 80% peak power output (PPO), 3 x 10-min bouts of steady-state (SS) cycling (50, 55, 60% PPO), and a time-to-exhaustion (TTE) test. There was no difference in SS [Formula: see text], HR, substrate oxidation and gross efficiency (GE %) between CHO and PLA conditions. A faster rate of muscle reoxygenation (%. s(-1)) existed in PLA after the 1st (Delta - 0.23 +/- 0.22, d = 0.58, P < 0.05) and 3rd HIIT intervals (Delta - 0.34 +/- 0.25, d = 1.02, P < 0.05). TTE was greater in CHO (7.1 +/- 5.4 min) than PLA (2.5 +/- 2.3 min, d = 0.98, P < 0.05). CHO consumption before and during exercise under reduced muscle glycogen conditions did not suppress fat oxidation, suggesting a strong regulatory role of muscle glycogen on substrate metabolism. However, CHO ingestion provided a performance benefit under intense exercise conditions commenced with reduced muscle glycogen. More research is needed to understand the significance of altered muscle oxygenation patterns during exercise. CI - (c) 2023.
