Actual (reported)Performance and fuel substrate utilization as measured through metabolomics
Will measure shifts in metabolites following 75-km cycling while ingesting bananas or 6% carbohydrate beverage. The shift in metabolites will be assessed using GC-MS. Time frame from date of randomization until the last samples are collected and analyzed will be up to six months.
Up to 6 months
Exercise-induced inflammation.
up to 6 months
Trained cyclists (N=14) completed two 75-km cycling time trials (randomized, crossover) while ingesting BAN or CHO (0.2 g/kg carbohydrate every 15 min).
