Physical training has been shown to improve glucose tolerance and insulin action. In the present study, action was determined using euglycemic clamp technique in six trained male athletes compared with untrained controls matched by age, sex, weight at 14, 38, 86 hours 6 days after cessation of exercise. The rate insulin-mediated uptake (glucose disposal) 9.40 ± 0.46 mg · kg-1 min-1 (mean SEM) for 14 h last exercise bout, 6.80 0.86 obtained (p < 0.01). Glucose disposal gradually decreased 7.78 0.87 38 h, 6.82 0.49 7.11 1.00 physical training. At detraining, exhibited did not differ significantly from controls. These results suggest that increases action, this effect could be reversed control levels within detraining.
