We found that females oxidized proportionately more
fat than males during all exercise trials. There was no
gender difference in glucose Ra; however, females had
a lower MCR at later exercise time points compared
with males. Endurance training resulted in an increase
in V˙ O2 peak of similar magnitude for both males and
females. CHO utilization was lower after endurance
training during exercise at the same ABS exercise
intensity; however, glucose Ra and MCR were lower
after endurance training at both the ABS and REL
exercise intensities.
