You recently received your supplement of Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise (MSSE) which contains all of the abstracts for the upcoming ACSM convention. One of the free communication sessions on carbohydrate metabolism has a presentation entitled, “Exercise, obesity and insulin-resistant skeletal muscle: A questionable relationship”. As you read the abstract you find that the speaker will be indicating that obesity/high fat diet does not lead to skeletal muscle insulin-resistance and will also be presenting that exercise training does not have any positive effects on improving skeletal muscle insulin-resistance. Moreover, you have learned that the full manuscript of this presentation will be published in an upcoming issue of MSSE. What are you going to do?
