| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Short duration – high intensity: springing 8-10 seconds | ^ 25% ATP & 40% CP stores ^ duration - top speed stays same Enzymes: ^ ATPase 30%, MK 20%, CPK 36% ^ top speed increase |
| Short duration – high intensity: springing 20-60 seconds | ^ glycogen ^ duration - top seed remains same Enzymes: Glycolytic = ^ PFK 83% ^ top speed increase |
| Endurance training – adaptations | • ^ myoglobin 26% • ^ number 120% & size 40% of mitochondria • Enzymes: ^ TCA & ETC 40% • ^ glycogen storage 2.5x • ^ fatty acid utilization • Greatest ^ Type IIa & Type IIx |
| High resistance strength training – adaptations | • ^ strength 28% • ^ CP concentration 5.1% • ^ Creatine concentration 35.2% • ^ ATP Concentration 17.8% • ^ Muscle Glycogen 32% |
| Why does ATP use increase with exercise? | • As activity levels increase, breathing rateincreases to supply more oxygen for increased ATP production • As the work of the muscle increases, more and more ATP get consumed and must be replaced in order for the muscle to keep moving. |
| What does it mean for aerobic metabolism to meet ATP demand? | • oxygen uptake correlates with increasing speed |
| what is aerobic metabolism? | • the oxidative process of the generation of ATP or energy that occurs in the body to provide the body with fuel during both resting and exercise states. |
| Incremental phase (O2 Deficit) | •Energy is mostly supplied by the hydrolysis of ATP, CP, and anaerobic glycogenolysis (lactate) • Utilization of storage oxygen o O2 in Capillary blood & interstitual fluid o O2 present in sarcoplasm with myoglobin o O2 present in mitochondria |
| what is O2 deficit | Difference between oxygen demand and supply during exercise bout |
| Steady state phase (Plateau Phase) | • Energy demand of the exercise is completely met by the aerobic phosphorylation. (O2 demand – O2 Supply) |
| EPOC (recovery phase) | • Excessive Post-Exercise Oxygen Consumption instead of “oxygen debt” |
| Factors responsible for “oxygen debt | o resynthesize ATP & CP form ADP & Pi o replenish the O2 stores of the body o resynthesis of glycogen from lactic acid in liver (gluconeogenesis) |
| why EPOC is than bigger O2 deficit | • Extra oxygen consumed by Heart, respiratory muscles, hormonal, Q10 effect |
| Difference in VO2 kinetics during a maximal (heavy) and light exercise | • Higher (heavier) the intensity of the exercise the higher the oxygen deficit and EPOC – vice versa |
| Difference in training vs untrained who has bigger oxygen deficit and or EPOC and WHY... | •Trained person will develop smaller O2 deficit and EPOC, due to faster response of aerobic energy transformation system ^ rate-limiting enzymes: Isocitrate, Cytochrome oxidase ^ TCA intermediary synthesis |

| What is VO2max | • maximum rate of oxygen consumption measured during incremental exercise; that is, exercise of increasing intensity. • "V" for volume, "O₂" for oxygen, and "max" for maximum |
| Relative Vo2 max | better predictor aerobic fitness, health-related fitness, and endurance performance in weight–bearing sports and activities. |
| Absolute Vo2 max | better predictor of performance in non-weight-bearing endurance sports and activities |
| Difference between relative and absolute VO2 max? | Relative takes size into account and is measured in ml/kg/min and Absolute doesn't and is measured in L/min |
| How do we use this for an index of exercise intensity? | • Objective expression of exercise intensity • Exercise intensity expressed relative to Vo2 max • Exercising Vo2= Vo2 max x intensity % / 100% |
| Who has higher Vo2max in different athletes or sex? | athletic males |
| Muscle fiber types and Vo2max (%ST and max) | • Slow Twitch (ST) muscle fibers are highly aerobic fibers |
| What is anaerobic threshold (OBLA | • Power output or Vo2, during progressively incremental exercise, after which there is a systematic increase in blood lactate concentration. |
| Why does Dr. K like using OBLA | Descriptive term without a why or how, just what happens |
| Why does he NOT like anaerobic threshold | • Claims that it’s because anaerobic system as underlying mechanism |
| OBLA vs Ventilatory threshold | •OBLA – increased exercise leads to increase blood lactate •Ventilatory- refers to the point during exercise at which the intensity level increases, breathing becomes faster; more steadily first and then more rapid as the intensity increases |
| When does OBLA happen | |
| three ways lactate production increases | -Hormonal stimulating of glycolysis b/c during fight or flight you release a lot of stress hormones that ^ ET -Blood being shunt away from liver and kidney. B/c function of gluconeogenic organs need that blood to bring lactate to them. |
| How does the removal of lactate become difficult | |
| Where does vasodilation and constriction occur? | |
| What is lactate turnover rate | • Percentage of lactate leaving |
| What happens with endurance trained individuals vs untrained | |
