Protein content during recovery after high-intensity exercise.

February 17, 2009 By Scott Lukaitis Leave a Comment

Post-exercise nutrition is a vital aspect of recuperation for any  athlete, but especially during multi-day competitions or after  hard training.  Although there’s plenty of evidence that a post- exercise high-carbohydrate diet can improve recovery, the  evidence that a high-protein diet can similarly aid recovery is, at  best, equivocal.  However, scientists from New Zealand have  examined the effect of post-exercise dietary protein content imposed over a high-carbohydrate background on subsequent  performance and come up with some intriguing results.  Twelve cyclists completed three high-intensity rides over four days as follows: day 1 comprising of a 2.5-hour high-intensity  ride; days 2 and 4, comprising of repeated sprint performance  tests, 15 hours and 60 hours after the initial session respectively;  day 3 as a rest day.

During a 4-hour recovery on days 1 and 2, the cyclists  ingested one of two diets:
1-Protein-enriched – 1.4 grams per kilo per hour of carbohydrate,
0.7 grams per kilo per hour of protein and 0.26 grams per kilo  per hour of fat.
2-Control – 2.1 grams per kilo per hour of carbohydrate, 0.1
grams per kilo per hour of protein and equal fat.

At all other times, the cyclists ingested a standardized high- carbohydrate diet.  A number of assessments were made during the study including muscle growth/breakdown (by measuring nitrogen balance), the degree of muscle stress and inflammation (by cortisolandcytokines), skeletal-muscle membrane disruption
(by creatine kinase), and damage from oxidative stress (by malonyldealdehyde).
The results showed that although means print power was not  clearly different on day 2, on day 4 it was 4.1% higher in the protein-enriched condition relative to control. Moreover,  overnight nitrogen balance was positive in the protein-enriched  conditionon day 1 (indicating muscle growth) but negative in the  control condition. The effects on oxidative stress, inflammatory  markers, and cortisol were considered in onclusive or trivial.  The researchers concluded that a delayed performance benefit
(at 60 hours) was observed following protein-enriched high- carbohydrate ingestion; these findings suggest that athletes  involved in several consecutive bouts of hard exercise over a period of a few days could benefit from an increased protein intake.  Appl Physiol Nutr Metab 2008;33(1):39-51

Efitnessacademy.com was established in 2004 and since then the company grown tremendously.  EFA is currently training and consulting with some of the top pro and amateur athletes in motor sports.
Sincerely,
Greg DiRenzo, CPT

October 27, 2008 By Scott Lukaitis Leave a Comment

“Lactic acid” in endurance sports – motocross: myths, legends and reality.

Most endurance athletes, in this case motocross athletes still believe that lactic acid is released during hard or unaccustomed exercise and that this is what limits performance, as well as being the cause of stiffness and “arm pump.” Neither is correct. But not even is the terminology of “lactic acid”. [Read more...]
