Abstract in brief

  • The study found that consuming a combination of protein and carbohydrate immediately after exhaustive cycling improved performance 18 hours later compared to carbohydrate alone or no nutrition.
  • Intake of protein plus carbohydrate increased key markers like plasma glucose, insulin, and amino acids, which are linked to better recovery.
  • Providing less carbohydrate and more protein during the 18-hour recovery period actually reduced subsequent cycling performance.
