Metabolic adaptation
Blood [lactate] after FAT-ADAPT declined from 3.7 ± 1.2 mM on d-2 to 2.4 ± 0.5 mM on d-5.
A high-fat diet may lead to lower lactate accumulation during intense exercise.

- Highly trained endurance cyclists can perform intense interval training sessions during short-term exposure to a high-fat diet despite their increased subjective ratings of effort.Strong
- The rate of fat oxidation increased from 31 ± 13 μmol.kg−1.min−1 on d-2 to 61 ± 25 μmol.kg−1.min−1 on d-5 after FAT-ADAPT.Strong
