Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether changes in lactate kinetics during exercise (due to glycogen depletion or hyperthermia) alter the pattern of fat oxidation during a maximal incremental cycle ergometer test in healthy young active people. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Will a rightward shift in lactate kinetics, induced by a previous glycogen depletion, produce a rightward shift in fat oxidation?
* Will a leftward shift in lactate kinetics due to an increase in ambient temperature produce a leftward shift in fat oxidation?

Participants will perform three maximal incremental tests in three different conditions:

* one in the control condition;
* one with glycogen depletion;
* and one with ambient heat (the latter two in randomized, counterbalanced order).

Conditions

  • Energy Metabolism

Interventions

OTHER

Incremental exercise test

Maximal incremental exercise test on a cycle ergometer (5 min warm-up at 30W, and subsequent steps of 3 min with power increases of 30W)

OTHER

Incremental exercise test under hyperthermia

Maximal incremental exercise test on a cycle ergometer (5 min warm-up at 30W, and subsequent steps of 3 min with power increases of 30W) performed at a room temperature of 35-38ºC (degrees Celsius).

OTHER

Incremental exercise test under glycogen depletion

Maximal incremental exercise test on a cycle ergometer (5 min warm-up at 30W, and subsequent steps of 3 min with power increases of 30W) under glycogen depletion by performing an exercise protocol to deplete glycogen stores plus a low-carbohydrate diet 24 h before incremental testing
