What metabolic changes must occur in skeletal muscles at the beginning of exercise to provide the necessary energy to continue movement

Anaerobic energy sources

Anaerobic energy sources contributions to the beginning of exercise

Overall production of atp



ATP levels are unchanged, even though ATP is being used at a higher rate

As steady state of O2 is reached---

Body's atp requirements is met via aerobic metabolism

Oxygen deficit

Lag in oxygen uptake at the beginning of exercise

Aerobic atp production is insufficient until the oxygen uptake reaches steady state because

There is inadequate oxygen delivery to the muscle or failure of oxidative phosphorylation

How do trained adults reach vo2 steady state faster than untrained adults

Better developed aerobic bioenergetic capacity resulting from cardio it's muscular adaptations by endurance training

Less production of lactate and H ions brings what?

Longer levels of exercise. Time increases

After exercise the metabolic rates does not fall instantly. Why?

Oxygen uptake is above the level needed to meet the demands of standing on the treadmill

Higher intensity exercises

No steady state is present

Oxygen debt

Elevated oxygen uptake following exercise

EPOC

If not used, part of 02 consumed following exercise is used to restore PC in muscle and O2 stores in blood and tissue

Glycolysis

Produces two 3- carbon pyruvic acid meadowdale

Citric acid cycle

Each pyruvic acid enters the mitochondria separately. They lose a C , forming CO2. Then binds with acetyl COa forming an enzyme

High intensity, short term exercise 2-20 seconds utilizes what pathway

ATP-PC system

Intense exercises lasting longer than >5 seconds utilizes which pathway

Glycolysis

High intensity exercises lasting longer than 45 seconds uses what pathway

All 3 metabolic pathways

Hot humid environments effect on aerobic metabolism and its steady state

Increase uptake in oxygen


Continous exercise at a high work rate results in slow rise in oxygen uptake

Increased in VO2 is due to:

Increase in body temperature


Increases in hormones ep and noep

Incremental exercise tests


Graded exercise tests

Examine for possible heart disease conducted on a treadmill or cycle ergometer

VO2 max

Maximal capacity to transport and utilize oxygen during exercise

Psychological factors that influence VO2 max

Maximum ability of the cardio system to deliver oxygen to the contracting muscles



Muscles ability to take up the oxygen and PRODUCE ATP aerobically

Increased in VO2 is due to

Increased body temperature


Increase in hormones. Epinephrine


And noneoinephrine

Incremental exercise tests [ graded exercise tests]

Examine for possible heart diseases


Conducted on a treadmill or cycle ergometer

Maximal oxygen uptake or VO2 max

Maximal capacity to transport and utilize oxygen during exercise

Does power increase after oxygen uptake rate is reached?

No.

Name physiological factors that influence VO2 max

Maximum ability of the cardiovascular system to deliver oxygen to the contracting muscle



Muscles ability to take up the oxygen and produce ATP aerobically

As exercise intensity increases during an incremental test. What happens to blood lactate levels

They rise



In untrained individuals it occurs around 50-60% of VO2 max

Anaerobic thresholds

A systematic rise in blood lactate during incremental exercise

Onset of blood lactate accumulation

Exercise intensity at which a specific blood lactate concentration is reached

Lactate production depends on many factors

Rapid rate of glycolysis., in which NADH production may exceed the transport capacity of the shuttle mechanism that move H from the sarcoplasm into the mitochondria


Caused by increases in epinephrine levels

Slow fiber muscles

Slow twitch , low intensity exercises


LDH coverts lactate to pyruvate.



These muscles are used in the beginning of exercise

Fast twitch fibers

Intense, rapid exercise



LDH attaches to pyruvate forming lactate. Causing lactate thresholds


The ph of body Fluids can alert enzymes activity

If ph Is altered the activity reduces



During exercise, skeletal muscles produces large amounts of h+ ions, resulting in decreases in Ph

1g carb= kcal

4

What is the stored polysaccharide found in animal tissues and muscle

Glycogen= linkage of glucose molecules

1g fat =? kcal

9

Groups of fats

Fatty acids


Steroids


Phospholipids


Triglycerides

Fatty acids are stored as

Triglycerides


Composed of 3 fatty acids and one glycerol

Proteins can contribute energy for exercise in two ways

Amino acid alanine can be converted in the liver to glucose, which can then be used to make glycogen



Liver glycogen can be broken down to glucose and then transported to working skeletal muscle

During high intensity short term exercise the muscles ATP production is dominated by

ATP-PC system

Intense exercise lasting over 20 sec relies on

Anaerobic glycolysis

High intensity exercises lasting longer than 45 seconds uses all three pathways. T or f

True

Steady state oxygen uptake can be maintained during moderate exercise but there are 2 exceptions

Hot humid environments increase oxygen uptake



Continous exercise at higher work rates resulting in slow uptake

As exercise intensity increases. During a graded test, blood lactate levels rise. When does it appear in untrained individuals. Trained individuals?

50-60% VO2 MAX


60-85%

Vo2 max means

A " physiological ceiling" for the ability of the oxygen transport to deliver o2 to contracting muscles

Lactate threshold

Rise in blood lactate concentration


During graded exercise

Use of the lactate threshold

Serve as a guideline in planning the level of exercise intensity needed to optimize training results



RER

Ratio of carbon dioxide produced to the volume of oxygen consumed



R=nonprotein R



When fat oxidizes , C bines with O2 forming CO2, and water forms



Work is determined by several factors

Diet



The intensity and duration of exercise



Whether the subject is endurance trained

As exercise intensity increases what gets burned faster

Carbohydrates compared to fats

Crossover point

Progressive shift from fat to carbohydrate metabolism



Caused by:


recruitment of fast fibers
