Detailed Description
11 healthy and recreational active subjects will be recruited to the study. For inclusion and assessment of baseline physiological characteristics during cycling, a pre-test will be performed on a cycle ergometer and the submaximal and maximal response to exercise will be determined by measurement of respiratory gas exchange. The physiological response to submaximal work rate will be comprised of a series of five minutes long intervals separated with one minutes of rest with assessment of capillary blood lactate and glucose at the end of each workload. All physiological tests and training (HII) sessions will be carefully supervised by trained personnel. The intervention period will include 14 HIIT-sessions in total, all performed at the laboratory under close surveillance and careful monitoring of power output and heart rate. During HIIT sessions, VO2, CO2, blood glucose, lactate and rating of perceived exhaustion (BORG) will be measured.
Energy intake will be standardized for each subject during the day of test sessions. After each HIIT-session a recovery drink containing 1 g · kg-1 bw of carbohydrates and 0.25 g · kg-1 bw of protein will be ingested by the subjects. After HIIT sessions, subjects will be supplied with an evening meal consisting of 74 g carbohydrates, 38 g protein and 26 g fat to be consumed two hours post exercise. Subjects will thereafter remain fasted until the next morning for an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and donation of a muscle biopsy.
All biopsies will be collected in fasted state in early morning following 14 hour of rest after the last HIIT-session. Biopsies will be taken from vastus lateralis in alternating leg in randomized order.
Each subject will complete four OGTTs throughout the study. Resting metabolic rate (RMR) will be measured in supine position by gas exchange measurement using mixing chamber method (Oxycon Pro) attached to a ventilated hood. Thereafter the muscle biopsy will be taken and a catheter will be inserted into the antecubital vein of the forearm. After 10 minutes of passive rest 75 mg glucose dissolved in 300 ml water will be ingested and at 0, 15, 30, 45, 60 75, 90, 105- and 120-minutes after glucose intake a venous blood sample will be taken and instantly analyzed for glucose with enzymatic method in the Biosen C-Line Clinic. Additional RMR measurements will be performed at ~40 and 115 minutes after glucose ingestion.
Mitochondria will be isolated from fresh skeletal muscle biopsies. Mitochondrial respiration and H2O2 emission will be measured using a two-channel high-resolution respirometer with an attached fluorescent probe (Oxygraph-2k, Oroboros Instruments Corporation, Innsbruck, Austria).
