Figure 3. Effect of high-fat diet, alone or in conjunction with training in either the fasted or the carbohydrate-fed state, on whole-body insulin sensitivity.

Data provided are means ±s.e.m. (CON: n = 7; F: n = 9; CHO: n = 9) and represent Matsuda insulin sensitivity index (ISI) as calculated by fasting glucose and insulin values. Values before (pretest) and after (posttest) a 6-week hyper-caloric fat-rich diet, either in the absence (CON) or presence of training in either the fasted state or the carbohydrate-fed state (CHO) are shown. *P < 0.05, versus pretest.
