Resistance Training on Endocrine System |
Can be manipulated naturally by Resistance Training
Can enhance/develop of Target Tissues *Improves Performance |
|
Hormones
|
Chemical Messengers that are:
- Synthesized - Stored - Released in blood by Endocrine Glands |
|
Endocrine Glands
|
Body Structures specialized for:
- Secretions *maybe other cells |
|
Neuroendocrinology
|
The Study of the Interactions between:
- Nervous System - Endocrine System |
|
Nucleus Receptor for Hormones are in these hormones
|
Steroid
Thyroid |
|
Target Tissue
|
The tissue for which hormones are created for
|
|
Myosin Heavy-Chain Proteins (MHC)
|
Can go through a change in their molecular structure
- From IIx to IIa |
|
Anabolic Hormones
|
Hormones promoting:
- Tissue Building - Block catabolic hormones |
|
Catabolic Hormones
|
Attempt to degrade cell proteins to support:
- Glucose synthesis |
|
Lock-and-Key Theory
|
The Receptor = Lock
The Hormone = Key |
|
Cross-Reactivity
|
A given receptor partially:
- Interacts with Hormones that not specifically designed for it |
|
Allosteric Binding Sites
|
When a substance Other than Hormones can:
- Enhance/Reduce cellular response to the Primary Hormone |
|
Downregulation
|
Inability of a hormone to interact with a receptor
|
|
Hormone-Receptor Complex
(H-RC) |
A binded Hormone/Receptor
- Shifts the receptor - Activates Receptor - Opens cells Nucleus |
|
Polypeptide Hormones
|
Hormones made up of Amino Acids
i.e. HGH, Insulin |
|
Secondary Messengers (STAT)
|
Messengers that get polypeptide hormones messages across cellular membranes
|
|
Heavy Resistance Exercise and Hormonal Increases
|
Specific Force Produced in Activated fibers:
- Stimulates: receptor and membrane Sensitivities - To anabolic factors: - Includes: hormones - Leads to muscle growth and strength training |
|
Hormone link to Resistance Training
|
Hormone responses are tightly linked to:
- Characteristics of the Resistance Exercise Protocol |
|
Diurnal Variations
|
Normal fluctuations in Hormone Levels throughout the day
|
|
Large Muscle Group Training and Hormone Response
|
Large Muscle Group Exercise results in:
- Acute increased Serum Total Testosterone concentrations in men |
|
Growth Hormone (Reactions)
|
- Normal development of children
- Plays a vital role to Adapting to stress of Resistance Training Secondary Effects of HGH Injections: - Change in muscle size/strength - Hypertrophy |
|
Proteolytic Enzymes
|
Enzymes that break down proteins
|
|
Cortisol Hormone and Resistance Training
|
Resistance Training:
- High Volume - Large Muscle Groups - Short Rest Periods = Increased Serum Cortisol Values (if acute, maybe a sign of muscle tissue remodeling) |
|
General Concepts (Resistance Training and Endocrine Response)
|
- More Muscle fibers recruited = more muscle remodeling
- Only muscle fibers activated by Resistance Training are Subject to Adaptation |
|
To Increase Serum Testosterone Concentrations
|
- Large Muscle Group Exercise
- Heavy Resistance Training (85%-95% of 1RM) - Moderate-High Volume of Exercise - Short Rest Intervals (30-60 secs) |
|
To Increase Growth Hormone Levels
|
- Use workouts with High Lactate Concentrations
- High Intensity (10RM/Heavy Resistance) - High Total Work (3 sets) - Short Rest Periods (1 min) - Supplement Diet with Carbohydrate and Protein Before/afterwards workout |
|
To Optimize Responses of Adrenal Hormones
|
Use:
- High volume - Large Muscle Groups - Short Rest Periods But: - Vary training protocol/rest period length/volume Prevents: - Adrenal gland chronic catabolic response of Cortisol |
|
Growth Hormone (Function)
|
Stimulates:
- IGF-1 - Protein Synthesis - Growth - Metabolism |
|
Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (Function)
|
Stimulates:
- Thyroid Hormone Synthesis - Secretion |
|
Luteinizing Hormone (Function)
|
Stimulates:
- Ovulation - Secretion of Sex Hormones in Ovaries/Testes |
|
Insulin Hormone (Function)
|
Stores:
- Glycogen Promotes: - Glucose Entry into Cells Involved In: - Protein Synthesis |
|
Glucocorticoids (Function) (Cortisol, Cortisone, etc)
|
Inhibits:
- Amino Acid Incorporation into Proteins Stimulates: - Conversion of Amino Acids into: CHO Maintains: - Normal Blood Sugar Levels Conserves: - Glucose Promotes: - Fat use |
|
Insulin Like Growth Factor -1 (Function)
|
Increase Protein Synthesis in Cells
|
|
Epinephrine (Function)
|
Increases:
- Cardiac Output - Blood Sugar - Glycogen Breakdown - Fat Metabolism |
|
Norepinephrine (Function)
|
Same as Epinephrine
Also: - Constricts Blood Vessels |
|
Testosterone (Function)
|
Stimulates:
- Growth - Protein Anabolism - Development/Maintenance of Male Sex Characteristics |
