sport nutrition 1

TermDefinition
physical activity Bodily movement resulting in an increase in energy expenditure above resting levels
exercise Physical activity that is planned, structured, repetitive, and purposive
sport competitive physical activity
specificity Stresses muscle in a manner similar to the sport
overload Stimulus that is of sufficient magnitude to change the body
macrocycle Overall block of time that includes entire amount of training
mesocycle Smaller amount –usually weeks or months
plyometric Powerful explosive movements
RDA recommended dietary allowance, best # we have, heavily studied, works for 97-98% of the population
AI adequate intake, recommended intake based on a group of healthy people, weaker of the two
EAR estimated average requirement, the average, works for 50% of people in groups
UL tolerable upper intake level, the amount you can take without any adverse effects
carbs 3-10 g/kg BW , 4 kcals
proteins 1.2-2.0 g/kg BW , 4 kcals
fats 20-35% , 9 kcals
alcohol 7 kcals
Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act DSHEA provides labeling guidelines, but it does not ensure safety or effectiveness.
subcategories of supplements vitamins, minerals, AA botanicals herbals
certifications from dietary supplements NSF, informed choice, USP

Epidemiological
Experimental
types of research studies case studies, Epidemiological, Experimental
research design and methods Control/experimental groups Randomization Placebo Double-blind Crossover design
causation
correlation
extrapolation of results
aerobic with air
intensity absolute or relative difficulty of physical activity or exercise.
aerobic with air
intensity absolute or relative difficulty of physical activity or exercise.
fatigue Decreased capacity to do mental or physical work.
glycogen Storage form of glucose in the liver and muscle.
hypohydration below the normal state of hydration
ATP The energy source used by all cells in the body is
basal metabolic rate BMR, largest amount of energy expended during the day for the average adult
daily value DV, nutrition facts label uses this abbreviation
dietary reference intake DRI, Standard for essential nutrients and other components of food needed by a healthy individual
upper limit UL, the highest daily nutrient intake that is likely to pose no risk of adverse health effects for almost all individuals in the general population
MET Level of energy expenditure equal to that measured at rest.
total energy expenditure TEE, The amount of energy that is required by the body, typically determined over the course of a 24-hour day.
BMR A measure of the amount of energy per unit of time necessary to keep the body alive at complete rest.
Thermic effect of food TEF, The amount of energy required by the body to digest and absorb food.
ergogenic things that improve athletic performance
macrocycle begins at the onset of training and includes the time leading up to a specific athletic goal
atrophy A wasting or decrease in organ or tissue size
periodization creation of time periods with distinct training
overload An exercise stimulus that is of sufficient magnitude to cause enough stress to warrant long-term changes by the body.
specificity A training principle that stresses muscles in a manner similar to which they are to perform.
bioenergetics The process of converting food into biologically useful forms of energy.
rephosphorylation ADP-->ATP
4.184 kJ 1 calorie
4,4,9,7 Calories per gram for carbs, protein, fats and alcohol
sport nutrition The application of nutrition and exercise physiology principles to support and enhance training.
chemical work ex: storage of carbohydrates by forming glycogen for later use
electrical work ex: maintenance of the distribution of ions across cell membranes
mechanical work force production by skeletal muscle
transportation work circulation of blood throughout the body to deliver oxygen, nutrients, and other compounds to tissues
first law of thermodynamics within a closed system, energy cannot be created or destroyed
bioenergetics The process of converting food into biologically useful forms of energy
potential energy An example is water in a reservoir behind a dam.
kinetic energy An example of this is water flowing through pipelines to move turbine blades.
endergonic energy An example is setting up a mousetrap.
exergonic energy An example is a mousetrap is triggered and the spring snaps.
static not moving
rate speed
myosin thick contractile protein
actin thin contractile protein
kinetic energy energy of motion
endergonic release energy
exergonic store energy
bioenergetics Converting food into energy
the creation of ATP is an example of what type of reaction (rephosphorylation) endergonic, absorbing energy
enzymes catalyze reactions, proteins to lower the energy required for the reaction to occur, work at warmer temps
factors that influence enzymatic activity temp, pH
energy systems creatine phosphate, anaerobic glycolysis, oxidative phosphorylation
joule scientific unit of measure of energy
direct calorimetry research change in heat in energy expenditure
indirect calorimetry Measures changes in oxygen consumption and/or carbon dioxide production 1 liter of oxygen = 5 kcals
doubly labeled water (DLW) measurement of energy expenditure over a longer period of time using radioactive labeled hydrogen and oxygen.
whole room calorimeter direct calorimetry, measured temperature change in the room, used for research
indirect calorimetry Measures relationship between oxygen consumption, carbon dioxide production, and energy expenditure
components of total energy expenditure physical activity, thermic effect of food, resting metabolism
RMR estimates BMR
influences on resting metabolic rate gender, genetics, age, height, thyroid hormones, starvation, amount of fat free tissue, exercise, environmental temp, ascending to high altitude, caffeine
thermic effect of food TEF, Energy required for the digestion and absorption of food Estimated to be 10% of total caloric intake for the day Proteins increase TEF more than carbohydrates Effect of TEF on RMR is very small
Daily Reference Intakes were developed for the general population
The needs of athletes are generally _____ from those of the general population for energy different
General nutrition guidelines limiting weight loss for the athlete to the phase of active recovery is an example the principle of periodization
A competitive long-distance runner will most likely need to _______ caloric intake during specific training increase
