Eleven sedentary and seven regularly exercising subjects (65.6 ± 4.5 yr) were characterized for their aerobic fitness [maximal O 2 uptake ( O 2 max )/kg fat free mass (FFM)] and their habitual daily physical activity level [free-living daily energy expenditure divided by sleeping metabolic rate (DEE FLC /SMR)]. MFOC was determined by incubating homogenates of vastus lateralis muscle with [1- 14 C]palmitate. Whole body fat oxidation was measured by indirect calorimetry over 24 h. MFOC was 40.4 ± 14.7 and 44.3 ± 16.3 nmol palmitate · g wet tissue 1 · min 1 in the sedentary and regularly exercising individuals, respectively ( P = nonsignificant). MFOC was positively correlated with DEE FLC /SMR ( r  = 0.58,  P < 0.05) but not with O 2 max /kg FFM ( r  =   0.35,  P = nonsignificant). MFOC was the main determinant of fat oxidation during all time periods including physical activity. Indeed, MFOC explained 19.7 and 30.5% of the variance in fat oxidation during walking and during the alert period, respectively ( P <   0.05). Furthermore, MFOC explained 23.0% of the variance in fat oxidation over 24 h ( P < 0.05). It was concluded that, in elderly people, MFOC may be influenced more by overall daily physical activity than by regular exercising. MFOC is a major determinant of whole body fat oxidation during physical activities and, consequently, over 24   h. habitual physical activity; endurance training; indirect calorimetry; vastus lateralis muscle
