Resumen: Purpose: To determine if muscle water content (H2Omuscle) expands with training in deconditioned middle-age men and the effects of this expansion in other muscle metabolites. Methods: Eighteen obese (BMI = 33±3 kg·m-2) untrained (VO2peak = 29±7 mL-1 ·kg-1 ·min-1) metabolic syndrome men completed a 4-month aerobic cycling training program. Vastus lateralis muscle biopsies were collected prior and 72 hours after the completion of the last training bout. Water content, total protein, glycogen concentration and citrate synthase activity were measured in biopsy tissue. Body composition was assessed using DXA and cardiometabolic fitness was measured during an incremental cycling test. Results: Body weight and fat mass were reduced -1.9% and -5.4%, respectively (P<0.05) while leg fat free mass increased with training (1.8%; =0.023). Cardiorespiratory fitness (i.e., VO2peak) exercise maximal fat oxidation (i.e., FOMAX) and maximal cycling power (i.e., WMAX) improved with training (11%, 33% and 10%, respectively; P<0.05). After 4-months of training H2Omuscle increased from 783±18 to 799±24 g · kg-1 wet weight (2%; P=0.011) while muscle protein concentration decreased 11% (145±15 to 129±13 g · kg-1 ww P=0.007). Citrate synthase activity (proxy for mitochondrial density) increased 31% (17±5 to 22±5 mmol · min-1 · kg-1 ww; P=0.024). Muscle glycogen concentration increased 14% (22±7 to 25±7 g · kg-1 ww) although without reaching statistical significance when expressed per kg of wet weight (P=0.15). Conclusion: Our findings suggest that aerobic cycling training increases quadriceps muscle water while reducing muscle protein concentration in obese metabolic syndrome men. Reduced protein concentration coexists with increase leg lean mass suggestive of a water dilution effect that however does impair increased cycling leg power with training.
