Carbohydrate and fat oxidation during AMex and PMex. During the recovery period between AMex and PMex nutritional interventions included early post exercise carbohydrate + protein supplements (C+P) and a later solid meal and early carbohydrate supplement (CHO) and a later solid meal. There was a time effect for carbohydrate oxidation but no group effects or group by time interactions. *While rates of fat oxidation were higher in C+P during both PM time points (vs. AMex); in CHO, rates of fat oxidation were lower during both PM time points relative to the AM time points (p ≤ 0.05).
