“…The literature reports that physical training is able to reduce insulin resistance (14) related to excessive accumulation of IMTG in sedentary individuals (62) . This effect seems to be due to increased fat oxidation (15) , mainly coming from fatty acids Aziz et al, 2010Bouhlel et al, 2006Coyle et al, 1985Coyle et al, 1997Dohm et al, 1986Farah & Gill, 2013Gonzalez et al, 2013Guéye et al, 2003Horowitz et al, 1997Isacco et al, 2012aIsacco et al, 2012bKirwan et al, 2001aKirwan et al, 2001bLittle et al, 2009Little et al, 2010Massicotte et al, 1990Montain et al, 1991aMontain et al, 1991bRamos-Jiménez et al, 2014Satabin et al, 1987Schabort et al, 1999Shin et al, 2013Wu et al, 2003 Ziogas & Thomas, 1998 derived from IMTG (63) . The acute effects of exercise in the fasted state are able to reduce the content of IMTG by approximately 60 % (5,64) , which does not seem to occur in the fed state (5) and, in the long term, seems to be more effective in improving insulin sensitivity (65) .…”
