简要总结
The aim of this project is to investigate the potential benefits of combining a new protein meat hydrolysates extract with a regular endurance training programme on (a) body composition (b) performance (c) muscle structure (d) immunology and (e) microbiota (f) haematological markers in endurance athletes
详细描述
PROYECT DESIGN This investigation involves a 10-week randomised, balanced, double blind parallel group between-subjects design, aimed to analyse the effects of combining endurance exercise and a post exercise nutrition strategy (hydrolysates meat protein (MEAT) + whey protein (W) or a isocaloric only carbohydrate placebo) on training outcomes, immunity and haematological variables after regular training and feeding intervention.
Participants will be divided in two-treatment groups 1) Hydrolysed meat-protein + whey (PROT); and 2) non-protein iso-energetic placebo (CHO). Once considered eligible for the study, and after an initial familiarisation period plus baseline tests (endurance performance body composition and blood extractions) participants will be randomly assigned to one of the intervention groups: PROT and CHO. Each group will follow a 10-week periodised endurance training intervention combined with one of the two specific supplementation treatments (PROT or CHO). Measurements of performance (VO2peak, vetilatory threshold and time to exhaustion at maximal aerobic intensity), body composition (fat and fat free mass), microbiota and haematology will be determined before and after the 10-week intervention period.
Once informed consent and health history have been obtained, after the baseline assessment (t1), participants will be divided into two similar profile groups, matched by body mass, age, sex and maximal oxygen uptake (VO2peak): (1) PROT (2) CHO
INTERVENTION The intervention will comprise of a 10-week combined supplementation (MEAT + W and CHO) regular endurance-training programme.
Endurance training Participants will commit to follow a polarised triphasic endurance-training model. This model contains three intensity zones calculated as low intensity [< the first ventilatory threshold (VT1), ~ 70% HRmax]; moderate intensity [between VT1 and respiratory compensation point or ventilatory threshold 2 (VT2), >70 < 90% HRmax]; and high intensity [>VT2, 90% HRmax]. Participants will train 5 to 6 times per week with a total percentage distribution of 75 to 80% at low intensity; 10% at moderate intensity, and 15 to 10% at high intensity.
