Exercise Physiology
The study of the function of the body under the stress of acute and chronic physical activity. how the body responds to the intense demands placed on it by physical activity And changes that occur in the body during regular exercise training
acute
refers to performing a single bout of exercise. This could be a few seconds (40 yd dash) or hours (ultra-marathon)
neuroendocrine system
control of energy balance
metabolic systems
energy release, feul reserves
neuromuscular system
movement, nerve to muscle coordination
cardiovascular-respiratory system
: Oxygen and energy delivery, Internal and External Respiration, Thermoregulation
Chronic
a certain length of time over which changes take place in different physiologic systems during exercise training programs.
activity continuum (classification of exercise in 2 ways)
metabolic responses (anaerobic and aerobic), hemodynamic systems
specificity
Physiological adaptations are related to a specific response of acute exercise
movement energy
the study of biochemical processes that release bound or potential energy and convert it to free energy.
primary energy sources
carbohydrates and fats
metabolism
the sum of chemical processes in the body
catabolism
the process of breaking down the large energy nutrient molecules to their smaller building blocks.
anabolism
process whereby smaller molecules are built up into larger molecules
adenosine triphosphate
ATP, body's direct energy source
ATP
Energy-rich compound that provides cells with a means of storing and conserving energy
Anaerobic ATP production(2systems)
Phosphagen System, Lactic Acid System; does not require oxygen
Phosphagen System
Provides majority of power for first 10 seconds; ATP is produced through phosphorylation; high power, produces ATP rapidly
power
relates to how quickly the system can produce ATP
application of a force relative to time
capacity
refers to the ability to make large quantities of ATP
creatine phosphate
Found in muscle in greater quantities than ATP (3X more); The breakdown of CP serves to sustain ATP levels in the muscle until the reservoir (CP) is depleted
lactic acid system
uses glycolysis to provide energy, starts a 10 seconds and lasts till 90 seconds; lactic acid is by product of fast glycolysis
aerobic respiration
cellular respiration; requires oxygen, uses glycolysis, lipolysis, beta-oxidation, krebs cycle, and electron transport chain, LOW POWER
lipolysis
breakdown of triglycerides
beta-oxidation
breakdown of fatty acids
Cardiorespiratory System (2 parts)
responsible for oxygen delivery, Pulmonary System and cardiovascular system
Pulmonary System
responsible for gas exchange from external to internal environment
Cardiovascular system
Oxygen and nutrients to muscle and removal of heat and waste
Cardiac output
the product of stroke volume and heart rate
thermoregulation (2 ways)
evaporation (sweating) and water intake
3 types of muscle fibers
slow oxidative, fast oxidative glycolytic, fast glycolytic
