Abstract
Exercise, along with dietary intervention, represents first-line therapy for diabetes mellitus. Aerobic exercise is recommended for its beneficial effects on glucose control as well as its abilities to retard the progression of other comorbidities common in patients with diabetes, such as cardiovascular disease. The capability of aerobic exercise to improve glycemic control in diabetes is well documented, although adherence to exercise regimens is problematic. More recently, the glucose-lowering effects of resistance training have also been documented; this form of exercise has additional benefits, such as the capability to counteract sarcopenia, which is common in older people with type 2 diabetes. Exercise in people with diabetes, however, also can present significant challenges to glycemic control. Excessive glucose lowering can occur under certain conditions, enhancing the threat of hypoglycemia; in other situations, hyperglycemia can be accentuated. An understanding of the interactions between specific antidiabetic medications and various forms and intensities of exercise is essential to optimizing glycemic control while minimizing the potential for acute derangements in plasma glucose levels. Exogenous forms of insulin and agents that stimulate insulin secretion in a glucose-independent manner (such as sulfonylureas and glinides) increase the propensity for hypoglycemia during low- to moderate-intensity aerobic exercise. In contrast, exercise protocols characterized by high intensity are more likely to result in episodes of hyperglycemia. Strategies to minimize inappropriate swings in glycemic control are reviewed.

Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS We assessed systemic and local muscle fuel metabolism during aerobic exercise in patients with type 1 diabetes at euglycaemia and hyperglycaemia with identical insulin levels. METHODS This was a single-blinded randomised crossover study at a university diabetes unit in Switzerland. We studied seven physically active men with type 1 diabetes (mean +/- SEM age 33.5 +/- 2.4 years, diabetes duration 20.1 +/- 3.6 years, HbA1c 6.7 +/- 0.2% and peak oxygen uptake [VO2peak] 50.3 +/- 4.5 ml min(-1) kg(-1)). Men were studied twice while cycling for 120 min at 55 to 60% of VO2peak, with a blood glucose level randomly set either at 5 or 11 mmol/l and identical insulinaemia. The participants were blinded to the glycaemic level; allocation concealment was by opaque, sealed envelopes. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to quantify intramyocellular glycogen and lipids before and after exercise. Indirect calorimetry and measurement of stable isotopes and counter-regulatory hormones complemented the assessment of local and systemic fuel metabolism. RESULTS The contribution of lipid oxidation to overall energy metabolism was higher in euglycaemia than in hyperglycaemia (49.4 +/- 4.8 vs 30.6 +/- 4.2%; p < 0.05). Carbohydrate oxidation accounted for 48.2 +/- 4.7 and 66.6 +/- 4.2% of total energy expenditure in euglycaemia and hyperglycaemia, respectively (p < 0.05). The level of intramyocellular glycogen before exercise was higher in hyperglycaemia than in euglycaemia (3.4 +/- 0.3 vs 2.7 +/- 0.2 arbitrary units [AU]; p < 0.05). Absolute glycogen consumption tended to be higher in hyperglycaemia than in euglycaemia (1.3 +/- 0.3 vs 0.9 +/- 0.1 AU). Cortisol and growth hormone increased more strongly in euglycaemia than in hyperglycaemia (levels at the end of exercise 634 +/- 52 vs 501 +/- 32 nmol/l and 15.5 +/- 4.5 vs 7.4 +/- 2.0 ng/ml, respectively; p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION Substrate oxidation in type 1 diabetic patients performing aerobic exercise in euglycaemia is similar to that in healthy individuals revealing a shift towards lipid oxidation during exercise. In hyperglycaemia fuel metabolism in these patients is dominated by carbohydrate oxidation. Intramyocellular glycogen was not spared in hyperglycaemia.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effects of Metformin and Glyburide on cardiovascular, metabolic and hormonal parameters during progressive exercise performed to exhaustion in the post-prandial state in women with type 2 diabetes (T2DM). DESIGN AND METHODS Ten T2DM patients treated with Metformin (M group), 10 with Glyburide (G group) and 10 age-paired healthy subjects exercised on a bicycle ergometer up to exercise peak. Cardiovascular and blood metabolic and hormonal parameters were measured at times -60 min, 0 min, exercise end, and at 10 and 20 minutes of recovery phase. Thirty minutes before the exercise, a standard breakfast was provided to all participants. The diabetic patients took Metformin or Glyburide before or with meal. RESULTS Peak oxygen uptake (VO(2)) was lower in patients with diabetes. Plasma glucose levels remained unchanged, but were higher in both diabetic groups. Patients with diabetes also presented lower insulin levels after meals and higher glucagon levels at exercise peak than C group. Serum cortisol levels were higher in G than M group at exercise end and recovery phase. Lactate levels were higher in M than G group at fasting and in C group at exercise peak. Nor epinephrine, GH and FFA responses were similar in all 3 groups. CONCLUSION Progressive exercise performed to exhaustion, in the post-prandial state did not worsen glucose control during and after exercise. The administration of the usual dose of Glyburide or Metformin to T2DM patients did not influence the cardiovascular, metabolic and hormonal response to exercise.

Abstract
Previously, the decline in glycemia in individuals with type 1 diabetes has been shown to be less with intermittent high-intensity exercise (IHE) compared with continuous moderate-intensity exercise (MOD) despite the performance of a greater amount of total work. The purpose of the present study was to determine whether this lesser decline in glycemia can be attributed to a greater increment in endogenous glucose production (Ra) or attenuated glucose utilization (Rd). Nine individuals with type 1 diabetes were tested on two separate occasions, during which either a 30-min MOD or IHE protocol was performed under conditions of a euglycemic clamp in combination with the infusion of [6,6-(2)H]glucose. MOD consisted of continuous cycling at 40% VO2 peak, whereas IHE involved a combination of continuous exercise at 40% VO2 peak interspersed with additional 4-s maximal sprint efforts performed every 2 min to simulate the activity patterns of intermittent sports. During IHE, glucose Ra increased earlier and to a greater extent compared with MOD. Similarly, glucose Rd increased sooner during IHE, but the increase by the end of exercise was comparable with that elicited by MOD. During early recovery from IHE, Rd rapidly declined, whereas it remained elevated after MOD, a finding consistent with a lower glucose infusion rate during early recovery from IHE compared with MOD (P<0.05). The results suggest that the lesser decline in glycemia with IHE may be attributed to a greater increment in Ra during exercise and attenuated Rd during exercise and early recovery.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Moderate to severe running usually leads to gastrointestinal dysmotility and critical energy exhaustion. It is unknown whether the carbohydrate metabolism of runners can influence gastric emptying (GE). Using a running rat model, the present study explored the impact of exercise/carbohydrate metabolism on liquid GE. METHODS Rats were put on the runways of a moving treadmill for 1 h. Trained rats underwent daily running 5 days a week for 4 weeks. Untrained rats were those put on a quiet treadmill to serve as sham exercise. On the motility study day, trained and untrained rats ran for 45 min. After orogastric feeding of radiochromium marker, they resumed running for an additional 15 min and were then killed in order to measure GE. Another group of trained and untrained rats received lactate infusion for 1 h in the quiet condition to measure their GE. The third group of rats received glucose infusion during running to measure GE. RESULTS Running of untrained (P < 0.05) and trained (P < 0.01) rats enhanced GE compared to sham exercise. Running for the untrained rats rather than the trained counterparts had diminished plasma glucose level (P < 0.05). Running also elevated plasma lactate levels for both untrained (P < 0.001) and trained rats (P < 0.01). Lactate infusion delayed GE in untrained (P < 0.01) and trained rats (P < 0.05). Glucose infusion of untrained rats during running was not only to correct hypoglycemia (P < 0.01) but also to restore their enhanced GE (P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS Running-induced hypoglycemia, rather than lactate accumulation, is one of the essential factors leading to enhanced liquid GE in untrained rats.

Abstract
PURPOSE AND METHODS To investigate the effect of glucose infusion on glucose kinetics and performance, six endurance cyclists (VO2max = 61.7 +/- 2.0 (mean +/- SE) mL x kg(-1) x min(-1)) completed two performance trials in which they had to accomplish a set amount of work as quickly as possible (991 +/- 41 kJ). Subjects were infused with either glucose (20% in saline; carbohydrate (CHO)) at a rate of 1 g x min(-1) or saline (0.9% saline; placebo (PLA)). It was hypothesized that time trial performance would be unaffected by the infusion of glucose, as endogenous stores of CHO would not be limiting in the PLA trial. RESULTS Plasma glucose concentration increased from 4.8 +/- 0.1 mmol x L(-1) to 5.9 +/- 0.3 mmol x L(-1) during the PLA trial and from 4.9 +/- 0.1 mmol x L(-1) at rest to 12.4 +/- 1.1 mmol x L(-1) during the CHO trial. These values were significantly higher at all time points during the CHO trial compared with PLA (P < 0.001). In the final stages of the time trial, Rd in the PLA trial was 49 +/- 5 micromol x kg(-1) x min(-1) compared with 88 +/- 7 micromol x kg(-1) x min(-1) in the CHO trial (P < 0.05). Despite these differences, there was no difference in performance time between PLA and CHO (60.04 +/- 1.47 min, PLA, vs 59.90 +/- 1.49 min, CHO, respectively). Infused carbohydrate oxidation in the last 25% of the CHO trial was at least 675 +/- 120 micromol x kg(-1) and contributed 17 +/- 4% to total carbohydrate oxidation. CONCLUSION The results demonstrate that glucose infusion had no effect on 1-h cycle time-trial performance, despite an increased availability of plasma glucose for oxidation and evidence of increased glucose uptake into the tissues.

Abstract
Intense exercise (IE) (>80% O(2max)) causes a seven- to eightfold increase in glucose production (R(a)) and a fourfold increase in glucose uptake (R(d)), resulting in hyperglycemia, whereas moderate exercise (ME) causes both to double. If norepinephrine (NE) plus epinephrine (Epi) infusion during ME produces the plasma levels and R(a) of IE, this would prove them capable of mediating these responses. Male subjects underwent 40 min of 53% O(2max) exercise, eight each with saline (control [CON]), or with combined NE + Epi (combined catecholamine infusion [CCI]) infusion from min 26-40. In CON and CCI, NE levels reached 7.3 +/- 0.7 and 33.1 +/- 2.9 nmol/l, Epi 0.94 +/- 0.08 and 7.06 +/- 0.44 nmol/l, and R(a) 3.8 +/- 0.4 and 12.9 +/- 0.8 mg. kg(-1). min(-1) (P < 0.001), respectively, at 40 min. R(d) increased to 3.5 +/- 0.4 vs. 11.2 +/- 0.8 mg. kg(-1). min(-1) and glycemia 5.2 +/- 0.2 mmol/l in CON vs. 6.5 +/- 0.2 mmol/l in CCI (P < 0.001). The glucagon-to-insulin ratio did not differ. Comparing CCI data to those from 14-min IE (n = 16), peak NE (33.6 +/- 5.1 nmol/l), Epi (5.32 +/- 0.93 nmol/l), and R(a) (13.0 +/- 1.0 mg. kg(-1). min(-1)) were comparable. The induced increments in NE, Epi, and R(a), all of the same magnitude as in IE, strongly support that circulating catecholamines can be the prime regulators of R(a) in IE.

Abstract
In intense exercise (>80% VO(2max)), unlike at lesser intensities, glucose is the exclusive muscle fuel. It must be mobilized from muscle and liver glycogen in both the fed and fasted states. Therefore, regulation of glucose production (GP) and glucose utilization (GU) have to be different from exercise at <60% VO(2max), in which it is established that the portal glucagon-to-insulin ratio causes the less than or equal to twofold increase in GP. GU is subject to complex regulation by insulin, plasma glucose, alternate substrates, other humoral factors, and muscle factors. At lower intensities, plasma glucose is constant during postabsorptive exercise and declines during postprandial exercise (and often in persons with diabetes). During such exercise, insulin secretion is inhibited by beta-cell alpha-adrenergic receptor activation. In contrast, in intense exercise, GP rises seven- to eightfold and GU rises three- to fourfold; therefore, glycemia increases and plasma insulin decreases minimally, if at all. Indeed, even an increase in insulin during alpha-blockade or during a pancreatic clamp does not prevent this response, nor does pre-exercise hyperinsulinemia due to a prior meal or glucose infusion. At exhaustion, GU initially decreases more than GP, which leads to greater hyperglycemia, requiring a substantial rise in insulin for 40--60 min to restore pre-exercise levels. Absence of this response in type 1 diabetes leads to sustained hyperglycemia, and mimicking it by intravenous infusion restores the normal response. Compelling evidence supports the conclusion that the marked catecholamine responses to intense exercise are responsible for both the GP increment (that occurs even during glucose infusion and postprandially) and the restrained increase of GU. These responses are normal in persons with type 1 diabetes, who often report exercise-induced hyperglycemia, and in whom the clinical challenge is to reproduce the recovery period hyperinsulinemia. Intense exercise in type 2 diabetes requires additional study.

Abstract
There has been recent interest in the potential performance and metabolic effects of carbohydrate ingestion during exercise lasting approximately 1 h. In this study, 13 well-trained men ingested in randomized order either a 6% glucose solution (CHO trial) or a placebo (Con trial) during exercise to exhaustion at 83+/-1% peak oxygen uptake. In six subjects, vastus lateralis muscle was sampled at rest, at 32 min, and at exhaustion, and in six subjects, glucose kinetics was determined by infusion of [6,6-(2)H]glucose in both trials and ingestion of [6-(3)H]glucose in the CHO trial. Of the 84 g of glucose ingested during exercise in the CHO trial, only 22 g appeared in the peripheral circulation. This resulted in a small (12 g) but significant (P<0.05) increase in glucose uptake without influencing carbohydrate oxidation, muscle glycogen use, or time to exhaustion (CHO: 68.1+/-4.1 min; Con: 69.6+/-5.5 min). Decreases in muscle phosphocreatine content and increases in muscle inosine monophosphate and lactate content during exercise were similar in the two trials. Although endogenous glucose production during exercise was partially suppressed in the CHO trial, it remained significantly above preexercise levels throughout exercise. In conclusion, only 26% of the ingested glucose appeared in the peripheral circulation. Glucose ingestion increased glucose uptake and partially reduced endogenous glucose production but had no effect on carbohydrate oxidation, muscle metabolism, or time to exhaustion during exercise at 83% peak oxygen uptake.

Abstract
We examined the effects of increased glucose availability on glucose kinetics and substrate utilization in horses during exercise. Six conditioned horses ran on a treadmill for 90 min at 34 +/- 1% of maximum oxygen uptake. In one trial [glucose (Glu)], glucose was infused at a mean rate of 34.9 +/- 1.1 micromol. kg(-1). min(-1), whereas in the other trial [control (Con)] an equivalent volume of isotonic saline was infused. Plasma glucose increased during exercise in Glu (90 min: 8.3 +/- 1.7 mM) but was largely unchanged in Con (90 min: 5.1 +/- 0.4 mM). In Con, hepatic glucose production (HGP) increased during exercise, reaching a peak of 38.6 +/- 2.7 micromol. kg(-1). min(-1) after 90 min. Glucose infusion partially suppressed (P < 0.05) the rise in HGP (peak value 25.8 +/- 3.3 micromol. kg(-1). min(-1)). In Con, glucose rate of disappearance (R(d)) rose to a peak of 40.4 +/- 2.9 micromol. kg(-1). min(-1) after 90 min; in Glu, augmented glucose utilization was reflected by values for glucose R(d) that were twofold higher (P < 0.001) than in Con between 30 and 90 min. Total carbohydrate oxidation was higher (P < 0.05) in Glu (187.5 +/- 8.5 micromol. kg(-1). min(-1)) than in Con (159.2 +/- 7.3 micromol. kg(-1).min(-1)), but muscle glycogen utilization was similar between trials. We conclude that an increase in glucose availability in horses during low-intensity exercise 1) only partially suppresses HGP, 2) attenuates the decrease in carbohydrate oxidation during such exercise, but 3) does not affect muscle glycogen utilization.

Abstract
A seven- to eightfold increment in hepatic glucose production (endogenous R(a)) occurs in postabsorptive (PA) intense exercise (IE). A similar response is likely present in the postprandial (PP) state, when most such exercise is performed, because 1) little evidence for increased intestinal absorption of glucose during exercise exists, and 2) intravenous glucose does not prevent it. We investigated IE in 10 PA and 8 PP fit, lean, young males who had exercised for 15 min at >84% maximum O(2) uptake, starting 3 h after a 412-kcal mixed meal. The meal induced a small rise in glycemia with sustained insulin and glucagon increases. Preexercise glucose total R(a) and utilization (R(d)) were equal and approximately 130% of the PA level. Exercise hyperglycemia in PP was delayed and diminished and, in early recovery, was of shorter duration and lesser magnitude (P = 0.042). Peak catecholamine (12- to 16-fold increase) and R(a) (PP: 11.5 +/- 1.4, PA: 13.8 +/- 1.4 mg. kg(-1). min(-1)) responses did not differ, and their responses during exercise were significantly correlated. Exercise glucagon, insulin, and glucagon-to-insulin responses were small or not significant. R(d) reached the same peak (PP: 8.0 +/- 0.6, PA: 9.3 +/- 0.8 mg. kg(-1). min(-1)) but was greater at 20-120 min of recovery in PP (P = 0.001). Therefore, the total R(a) response to IE is preserved despite the possibility of prior PP suppression of endogenous R(a) and is consistent with catecholamine mediation. Post-IE hyperglycemia is reduced in the postprandial state.

Abstract
The glucoregulatory response to intense exercise [IE, >80% maximum O(2) uptake (VO(2 max))] comprises a marked increment in glucose production (R(a)) and a lesser increment in glucose uptake (R(d)), resulting in hyperglycemia. The R(a) correlates with plasma catecholamines but not with the glucagon-to-insulin (IRG/IRI) ratio. If epinephrine (Epi) infusion during moderate exercise were able to markedly stimulate R(a), this would support an important role for the catecholamines' response in IE. Seven fit male subjects (26 +/- 2 yr, body mass index 23 +/- 0.5 kg/m(2), VO(2 max) 65 +/- 5 ml x kg(-1) x min(-1)) underwent 40 min of postabsorptive cycle ergometer exercise (145 +/- 14 W) once without [control (CON)] and once with Epi infusion [EPI (0.1 microg x kg(-1) x min(-1))] from 30 to 40 min. Epi levels reached 9.4 +/- 0.8 nM (20x rest, 10x CON). R(a) increased approximately 70% to 3.75 +/- 0.53 in CON but to 8.57 +/- 0.58 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1) in EPI (P < 0.001). Increments in R(a) and Epi correlated (r(2) = 0.923, P </= 0.01). In EPI, peak R(d) (5.55 +/- 0.54 vs. 3.38 +/- 0.46 mg x kg(-1) x min(-1), P = 0.006) and glucose metabolic clearance rate (MCR, P = 0.018) were higher. The R(a)-to-R(d) imbalance in EPI caused hyperglycemia (7.12 +/- 0.22 vs. 5.59 +/- 0.22 mM, P = 0.001) until minute 60 of recovery. A small and late IRG/IRI increase (P = 0.015 vs. CON) could not account for the R(a) increase. Norepinephrine (approximately 4x increase at peak) did not differ between EPI and CON. Thus Epi infusion during moderate exercise led to increments in R(a) and R(d) and caused rises of plasma glucose, lactate, and respiratory exchange ratio in fit individuals, supporting a regulatory role for Epi in IE. Epi's effects on R(d) and MCR during exercise may differ from its effects at rest.

Abstract
In intense exercise (>80% maximal oxygen consumption [VO2 max]), the 7- to 8-fold increase in glucose production (Ra) is tightly correlated with the greater than 14-fold increase in plasma norepinephrine (NE) and epinephrine (EPI). To distinguish the relative roles of alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptors, the responses of 12 control (C) lean, healthy, fit young male subjects to 87% VO2 max cycle ergometer exercise were compared with those of 7 subjects (at 83% VO2max) receiving intravenous phentolamine (Ph). The Ph group received a 70-microg/kg bolus and then 7 microg/kg/min from -30 minutes, during exercise and for 60 minutes of recovery. The data were analyzed by comparing exercise responses to exhaustion in Ph subjects (11.4 +/- 0.6 min) with those at both 12 minutes and at exhaustion in C subjects (14.6 +/- 0.3 min) and during recovery. There were no significant differences between groups in the plasma glucose response during exercise, but values were higher in C versus Ph subjects during the first 40 minutes of postexercise "recovery." The Ra response during the first 12 minutes of exercise was not different by repeated-measures ANOVA, reaching 10.6 +/- 1.3 mg/kg/min in C and 9.6 +/- 1.5 in Ph subjects at 12 minutes. However, in C subjects, Ra increased significantly to 14.1 +/- 1.2 mg/kg/min by exhaustion, and remained higher versus Ph subjects until 15 minutes of recovery. The Rd during recovery was not different between groups; thus, the higher Ra in C subjects in early recovery was responsible for the greater hyperglycemia observed in C subjects. Ph subjects showed a more rapid, marked increment (P = .002) in both plasma NE (to 64 v38 nmol/L) and EPI at exhaustion, and catecholamine concentrations remained higher in Ph versus C subjects during recovery. Whereas plasma insulin (IRI) declined in the C group, it increased 3-fold (P = .001) in the Ph group during exercise and until 15 minutes of recovery. Ph had no effect on glucagon (IRG). Thus, the glucagon to insulin ratio decreased in Ph subjects from baseline levels during exercise and early recovery, but increased in C subjects. The increase in Ra among Ph subjects despite the decrease in the glucagon to insulin ratio supports our earlier evidence that these hormones are not principal regulators of the Ra in intense exercise. The shorter time to exhaustion and markedly higher catecholamine levels in Ph subjects limited our ability to isolate the effects of alpha-adrenergic receptors on the Ra.alpha-Adrenergic receptors appear to have little influence on the Rd.

Abstract
The purpose of this review is to evaluate the effectiveness of commercially available sports drinks by answering the questions: (i) will consuming a sports drink be beneficial to performance? and (ii) do different sports drinks vary in their effectiveness? To answer these questions we have considered the composition of commercially available sports drinks, examined the rationale for using them, and critically reviewed the vast number of studies that have investigated the effectiveness of sports drinks on performance. The focus is on the drinks that contain low carbohydrate concentrations (<10%) and are marketed for general consumption before and during exercise rather than those with carbohydrate concentrations >10%, which are intended for carbohydrate loading. Our conclusions are 3-fold. First, because of variations in drink composition and research design, much of the sports drinks research from the past cannot be applied directly to the effectiveness of currently available sports drinks. Secondly, in studies where a practical protocol has been used along with a currently available sports beverage, there is evidence to suggest that consuming a sports drinks will improve performance compared with consuming a placebo beverage. Finally, there is little evidence that any one sports drink is superior to any of the other beverages on the market.

Abstract
We compared glucoregulatory responses to intense exercise (14 min at 88% maximum O(2) uptake) between genders (16 men, 12 women). Analysis of covariance of maximum O(2) uptake showed no gender effect, with 82% of variance due to fat-free mass (FFM). Glycemia rose comparably during exercise but was higher in women during recovery (P = 0.02). Glucose production [rate of appearance (R(a)); in mg/min] increased markedly in both; stepwise multiple regression and analysis of covariance of R(a) (peak and incremental area under the curve) showed no effect of gender, body weight, or FFM. Glucose uptake [rate of disappearance (R(d))] increased less than R(a) and slower in women. R(d) area under the curve related to FFM (P = 0.01) but not gender or body weight. Norepinephrine and epinephrine responses (13-18x baseline) were the same and correlated significantly with R(a). Exercise insulin and glucagon changes were slight, but postexercise hyperinsulinemia was greater in women (P = 0.018), along with higher R(d). Therefore, intense exercise glucoregulation is qualitatively similar between genders, with a "feed-forward" regulation of R(a) (consistent with catecholamine mediation). However, women have a lesser R(d) response, related to FFM. This combination leads to greater recovery-period hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia.
