Study Summary
The extent to which resistance exercise training and protein timing effects localized (belly fat) and systemic (whole body) fat metabolism in resistance-trained women is unknown. Therefore, this study will assess subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue lipolytic rate and whole body substrate utilization over the course of two trials: 1) consuming casein protein during the day, and 2) consuming casein protein at night, before bed.
Primary Outcome
Lipolysis is the way that fat cells mobilize the stored fat to enter into blood circulation. Lipolysis can be measured using a technique called microdialysis. In short, a semi-permeable probe is inserted into the subcutaneous abdominal adipose tissue (SCAAT, or belly fat). Saline combined with a minute amount of ethanol is perfused into the SCAAT, and interstitial fluid is collected out. The concentration of ethanol in the interstitial fluid sample is an indicator of blood flow within the tissue
Interventions
