Abstract

With the increasing demand for fitness centers by people interested in losing weight, it is increasingly common the practice of physical exercise with inadequate nutrition during the morning. Objective: Observe the relationship between nutritional status and interval training of indoor cycling, based on the physiological behavior of blood glucose. Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional study conducted with 10 volunteers with an average of 32 years (4 males) submitted a protocol for interval training of indoor cycling, recorded the morning meal in the diet, and described the heart rate and blood glucose before the test, 25 minutes after the test for 45 minutes. Results: Individuals who were in complete fasting for more than eight hours, the values of glucose were similar to those that fed and blood glucose values after training are higher than the pre training. Discussion: The carbohydrates are stored in muscle and liver as glycogen, which is the main fuel energy, particularly during exercise of high intensity. The blood glucose can be derived from two sources other than the digestion of carbohydrates, which is the glycogenolysis and glycogenesis. Conclusion: The activity of indoor cycling in fasting, provides blood glucose values similar to those that fed before physical practice and may also highlight the lack of hypoglycemia in individuals with fasting.
