The hypothesis that
endurance training increases gluconeogenesis (GNG) during rest and
exercise was evaluated. We determined glucose turnover with
[6,6-2H]glucose and lactate incorporation into
glucose by use of [3-13C]lactate during 1 h of
cycle ergometry at two intensities [45 and 65% peak
O2 consumption
(
O2 peak)]
before and after training [65% pretraining
O2 peak],
same absolute workload (ABT), and 65% posttraining
O2 peak, same
relative intensity (RLT). Nine males (178.1 ± 2.5 cm, 81.8 ± 3.3 kg, 27.4 ± 2.0 yr) trained for 9 wk on a cycle ergometer 5 times/wk for 1 h at 75%
O2 peak. The power
output that elicited 66.0 ± 1.1% of
O2 peak pretraining elicited 54.0 ± 1.7% posttraining. Rest and exercise arterial glucose concentrations were similar before and after training, regardless of exercise intensity. Arterial lactate concentration during
exercise was significantly greater than at rest before and after
training. Compared with 65% pretraining, arterial lactate concentration decreased at ABT (4.75 ± 0.4 mM, 65% pretraining; 2.78 ± 0.3 mM, ABT) and RLT (3.76 ± 0.46 mM) (P < 0.05). At
rest after training, the percentage of glucose rate of appearance
(Ra) from GNG more than doubled (1.98 ± 0.5%
pretraining; 5.45 ± 1.3% posttraining), as did the rate of GNG (0.11 ± 0.03 mg · kg
1 · min
1
pretraining, 0.24 ± 0.06 mg · kg

1
posttraining). During exercise after training, %glucose Ra
from GNG increased significantly at ABT (2.3 ± 0.8% at 65% pre- vs. 7.6 ± 2.1% posttraining) and RLT (6.1 ± 1.5%), whereas GNG
increased almost threefold (P < 0.05) at ABT (0.24 ± 0.08 mg · kg
1 · min

65% pre-, and 0.71 ± 0.18 mg · kg
1 · min

posttraining) and RLT (0.75 ± 0.26 mg · kg
1 · min
1). We conclude that endurance
training increases gluconeogenesis twofold at rest and threefold during
exercise at given absolute and relative exercise intensities.
