    The document describes an empirical cycle for testing the hypothesis that maximal endurance capacity improves more with additional protein drinks. It discusses a 12-week training program with 3 sessions per week where participants consumed either a protein drink or control drink. Measures of VO2max and simulated time-trial performance were taken. The results showed a stronger increase in VO2max for the protein group and improved performance for both groups after training, with a small difference between groups. The conclusion is that additional protein intake does enhance endurance training effects.
