Combining carbohydrate and protein breakdown products improves performance in late-stage exercise time trials
AI simplified
Abstract
Mean 60-km time trial performance was 134.4 ± 4.6 minutes with a carbohydrate + casein hydrolysate beverage.
- Time differences between treatments were significant during the final lap of the trial.
- Ingestion of the protein hydrolysate was associated with faster completion times in the last 20 km and final 5 km.
- Plasma creatine phosphokinase levels increased significantly after consuming the carbohydrate beverage but not after the carbohydrate + protein beverage.
- Muscle soreness ratings also increased significantly after the carbohydrate beverage compared to the carbohydrate + protein beverage.
