Abstract
This study was conducted to obtain additional information about the adaptations after 12 wk of high-fat diet (HFD) per se or HFD combined with endurance training in the rat using a two [diet: carbohydrate (CHO) or HFD] by two (training: sedentary or trained) by two (condition at death: rested or exercised) factorial design. Adaptation to prolonged HFD increases maximal O2 uptake (VO2max; 13%, P less than 0.05) and submaximal running endurance (+64%, P less than 0.05). This enhancement in exercise capacity could be attributed to 1) an increase in skeletal muscle aerobic enzyme activities (3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase and citrate synthase in soleus and red quadriceps) or 2) a decrease in liver glycogen breakdown in response to 1 h exercise at 80% VO2max. When training is superimposed to HFD, the most prominent finding provided by this study is that the diet-induced effects are cumulative with the well-known training effect on VO2max, exercise endurance, oxidative capacity of red muscle, and metabolic responses to exercise, with a further reduction in liver glycogen breakdown.
