Protein Supplementation Does Not Augment Adaptations to Endurance Exercise Training
Protein Supplementation Does Not Augment Adaptations to Endurance Exercise Training is a scholarly work by Luc J.C. van Loon, published in 2019 in ''Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise''. The main subjects of the publication include endurance training, physiotherapy, medicine, protein metabolism, physical medicine and rehabilitation, sports science, training, and Augment. The authors assessed the effect of protein supplementation during chronic endurance exercise training on whole-body oxidative capacity (V˙O2max) and endurance exercise performance. Methods In this double-blind, randomized, parallel placebo-controlled trial, 60 recreationally active males (age, 27 ± 6 yr; body mass index, 23.8 ± 2.6 kg·m−2; V˙O2max, 47 ± 6 mL·min−1·kg−1) were subjected to 12 wk of triweekly endurance exercise training.
