No afraid not. I know there is PLENTY of research on pre/during exercise carbs improving endurance, that's a given. I want some information regarding lack of carbs and fasted training because I believe this could be the sort of angle that could get me very good credit if I can back it up with evidence. There are SO many gym-goers out there that train fasted and report significant increases in performance (me being one of them, minhulk another and of course James the IFing Archivore I would love there to be some scientific evidence to back it up but can't seem to find any

I now they are based on endurance athletes but one assumes the genetic transcription mechanism would be the same!

Also, there was a recent NSCA journal article, that I got via email, talking about this (IIRC, centred more on strength training applications) but I can't seem to find it now!
