To examine fat oxidation rates during exercise in lean and obese pubescent children.
A graded leg cycle ergometry test was performed by two groups of pubescent boys (13 lean: mean (SD) age 12.0 (0.5) years, body mass index (BMI) 18.56 (1.12) kg/m(2); 17 obese: mean (SD) age 12.1 (0.1) years, BMI 26.68 (3.37) kg/m(2); p<0.001). The first step of the test was fixed at 30 W and power was gradually increased by 20 W every 3.5 min. The mean ventilatory gas measurement was obtained during the last 30 s of each step for calculation of fat oxidation rate vs exercise intensity.
At low intensity (0-30% of peak oxygen consumption) when fat-free mass is considered, the fat oxidation rate was identical for the two groups. At higher intensities (40%, 50% and 60% of peak oxygen consumption) the fat oxidation rate was significantly higher in lean boys than in obese boys.
These results confirm that obese pubertal boys have fat-free mass decreased capacities to use fat during moderate exercise. The findings suggest that obese boys need to practise physical activity at a lower intensity than healthy boys to enhance lipolysis and diminish adipose tissue and the consequences of obesity.
研究青春期消瘦和肥胖儿童在运动时的脂肪氧化率。
两组青春期男孩(13 名消瘦者:平均(标准差)年龄 12.0(0.5)岁,体重指数(BMI)18.56(1.12)kg/m(2);17 名肥胖者:平均(标准差)年龄 12.1(0.1)岁,BMI 26.68(3.37)kg/m(2);p<0.001)进行分级腿部循环测功试验。测试的第一步固定在 30 W,每 3.5 分钟增加 20 W 的功率。在每一步的最后 30 s 测量平均通气气体,以计算脂肪氧化率与运动强度的关系。
在低强度(0-30%最大摄氧量)下,当考虑去脂体重时,两组的脂肪氧化率相同。在更高的强度(40%、50%和 60%最大摄氧量)下,消瘦男孩的脂肪氧化率明显高于肥胖男孩。
这些结果证实,青春期肥胖男孩在适度运动中使用脂肪的去脂体重能力下降。研究结果表明,肥胖男孩需要比健康男孩在更低的强度下进行体育活动,以增强脂肪分解、减少脂肪组织和肥胖的后果。
