the observation that endurance athletes have high intramuscular lipid yet high insulin sensitivity, whereas the same lipid content goes with insulin resistance in obesity.

In endocrinology, athlete's paradox refers to the observation that endurance athletes have high intramuscular lipid yet high insulin sensitivity, whereas the same lipid content goes with insulin resistance in obesity. This meaning comes from Goodpaster (2001) in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism.[1]
