Exercise training improved insulin-stimulated glucose transport and increased rates of fatty acid oxidation in skeletal muscle.
Incorporating exercise training can significantly enhance glucose metabolism and fat oxidation in individuals with insulin resistance.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Exercise training, but not rosiglitazone treatment, reversed these impairments, resulting in improved insulin-stimulated glucose transport and increased rates of fatty acid oxidation in skeletal muscle.
Why this rating
The study design involved controlled interventions in an animal model.

- Athletes aiming to reduce fat mass and preserve FFM should consume protein intakes in the range of ∼1.8-2.7 g kg(-1) d(-1).Strong
- A minimum daily protein intake of ≥1.6 g/kg is necessary to observe significant improvements in muscle mass from whey protein supplementation.Strong
- Most athletes ideally need 1.2 to 2.0 grams/kg of body weight/day of protein, preferably split across 3-4 meals.Strong
