Carbohydrate-electrolyte feedings and 1h time trial cycling performance

Article Abstract:

The effects of a commercial sports drink on performance in high-intensity cycling were investigated. The results indicated that carbohydrate-electrolyte consumption throughout a 1-h time trial, following a pre-exercise dietary regimen designed to optimize glucose availability, did not improve time or power output to a greater degree than carbohydrate-free placebo in well-trained cyclists.

A whey-supplemented, high-protein diet versus a high-carbohydrate diet: Effects on endurance cycling performance

Article Abstract:

A study compares a training diet recommended for endurance athletes (high carbohydrate, or h-CHO) with an isoenergetic high protein (whey supplemented), moderate carbohydrate (H-Pro) diet on endurance cycling performance. Results indicate an ergolytic effect of a seven-day high protein diet on self-paced endurance cycling performance.
