Metabolic adaptation
Training decreased net muscle glycogenolysis, phosphocreatine degradation, and lactate accumulation with no difference between groups.
Both training methods effectively reduce metabolic stress markers during exercise.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Similarly, training decreased net muscle glycogenolysis, phosphocreatine degradation and lactate accumulation but there was no difference between groups.
Why this rating
The study design involves a controlled comparison of two training methods.
