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
