Nutritional strategies to enhance mitochondrial adaptation to endurance exercise
Author: Philp, A.

Abstract:
Endurance exercise, when performed regularly as part of a training program, leads to increases in whole-body and skeletal
muscle-specific oxidative capacity. The increase in mitochondrial biogenesis (increased volume and functional capacity) following
endurance training is fundamentally important as it leads to greater rates of oxidative phosphorylation and an improved capacity to utilize fatty acids during sub-maximal exercise. Given the importance of mitochondrial biogenesis for skeletal muscle performance, considerable attention has been given to understanding the molecular cues stimulated by endurance exercise and the role that alterations in nutritional status may play in augmenting this adaptive response. In this session, I will discuss a variety of exercise and nutritional approaches used to augment mitochondrial adaption to exercise, examine proposed modes of action and finally discuss the
feasibility of such approaches to alter mitochondrial adaptation to endurance training in humans.
