Figure 5. Effect of high-fat diet, alone or in conjunction with training in either the fasted or the carbohydrate-fed state, on intramyocellular lipid content.

Figure 5

Data provided are means ±s.e.m. (CON: n = 7; F: n = 10; CHO: n = 10) and represent basal IMCL content in type I (panel A) and type IIa (panel B) fibres as determined by fluorescence microscopy on Oil-Red-O stained muscle cross-sections (arbitrary units). Values before (pretest) and after (posttest) a 6-week hyper-caloric fat-rich diet, in either the absence (CON, open bars) or the presence of training in either the fasted state (F, filled bars) or the carbohydrate-fed state (CHO, hatched bars) are shown. *P < 0.05, versus pretest; ‡P = 0.06, versus pretest; IIP = 0.09, versus pretest.
