Q

caffeine

A
  • Most abused drug in the world

  • Coffee seems to offset-use pure pills
  • Psychological benefit-perceive things to be easier, don’t feel as tired
  • Banned at NCAA, not banned at Olympics/WODA

stimulant, large doses increase endurance, increases fuel in blood-increases free fatty acid mobilization. more than 6 cups in 2 hour period banned (by NCAA but not WADA)

Q

sodium bicarbonate

A

alkaline buffer, 300 mg per kg, reduces lactic acid

• Alkaline buffer
• Only benefits anaerobic exercise
• Anaerobic exercise builds lactic acid which cause cell Ph to go down
• SB acts as an alkaline booster and boosts Ph up to 7.5 from normally 7
o 6.2-6.3 when fatigue sets in
• Tests have proven benefits
• Need about 300 mg/kg body weight approx 90 min before activity
• Negatives:
o Can cause stomach problems-GI (gastronal intestinal)
o Not everyone gets benefits
• Not banned at any levels

Q

normal breathing is how many breaths in a minute

A

10 to 15

32
Q

normal adults should consume what % cal from CHO

A

• Normal adults should consume 45-65% cal from CHO, o Normal US diet 50% CHO—need to up to around 65% CHO when training consectutively

33
Q

glycogen storage in liver

A

Liver stores approx 100g (400 cal)

34
Q

glycogen storage in muscle

A

Muscle stores approx 400g (1600 cal)

35
Q

protein needed for endurance athlete

A

o 1-2 g/kg for endurance type athletes because of catabolic (break down fuel) effect of exercising

36
Q

steroids

A
  • Androgenic=increases male sex characteristics + anabolic=increase muscle mass
  • Mimic testosterone
  • Increases RBC-red blood cells-
  • causes betaheart and liver problems-detox
  • psychological effects-aggression, etc…more
  • stimulates protein synthesis and muscle protein content
37
Q

testosterone precursors

A

androstenedione (andro)=immediate precursor hormone between DHEA and testosterone, aids the liver in synthesizing other steroid hormones– not substitutes, precursors
• use precursors to increase the amounts of testosterone produced
• no conclusive evidence supports this belief
• andor to testos to estradiol…?
• increases amounts of abnormal blood lipids-triglycerides LDL

38
Q

ephedrine

A

similar to amphetamine

• Increase heart rate, blood pressure and cardiac output

39
Q

creatine monohydrate

A
  • 4-5 g – 4-5 x/day for 2 weeks
  • Increase CP levels about 20%
  • Universal benefit found- repetitive sprint cycling
  • anaerobic—only good for short term all out exercises
  • shown to have some anabolic effects
  • effects fall off as soon as you stop
  • causes weight gains-could negatively affect running
  • Not banned—technically a food-comes from protein sources
40
Q

diuretics

A

increase urine output
• used to lose quick water weight
• used to mask drug use-water down piss

41
Q

narcotics

A

o Cocaine, marijuana, herion, etc
• Cocaine is ergolytic (reduces performance)-causes a dramatic decrease in glycogen
o No ergo effects proven
o Least abused

42
Q

upper respiratory tract

A
o	Upper respiratory tract=facilitates ventilation…?
•	mouth, nose, trachea, bronchial tubes
•	Warms incoming air
•	Cold air constricts brachia
•	Adds moisture to incoming air
•	VE and filtration-particulate matter
43
Q

lower respiratory tract

A

where gas exchange occurs

• alveolar sacs + ducts

44
Q

Anatomical dead space ADS

A

Area where no gas exchange occurs
• Must overcome this space when breathing
• ADS - 1 lb = 1 mL DS

45
Q

dead space per pound

A

1 ml

46
Q

physiological dead space

A

portion of alveolar volume with poor tissue regional perfusion
• PDS=ADS + unused alveoli
• Normal person PDS and ADS are equal

47
Q

true or false, lung volumes are a limiting factor in exercise performance

A

false,

Lung volumes are rarely a limiting factor of exercise performance

48
Q

effect of age on TLC

A

no change

49
Q

effect of age on VC

A

VC decreases with age

50
Q

effect of age on RLV

A

age increases RLV

51
Q

ventilation abbreviated as

A

V sub e

52
Q

ventilation=

A

abbreviated V sub e = TV x RR
RR-breaths per minute
• TV=title volume (volume of air that comes out each breathe)

53
Q

obstructive diseases

A

Volumes are normal, but speed of inhalation and exhalation limited
• Unable to ventilate air because bronchial passage way closed down
• Asthma, bronchitis-not constant like emphysema
• 1-3 sec should be able to get out 80-90% of lung volume

COPD- chronic obstructive pulmonary disease- asthma also bronchitis. Lung volumes normal, but ability to blow air in and out rapidly is inhibited.
People with COPD can be very athletic and control problems with inhalers etc
ozone has a destructive effect on lungs, people consciously reduce depth of breathing because of pain etc. Rate then increased

54
Q

restrictive diseases

A

Low volumes
• Emphysema-parts in lungs constrict and lungs get small making it hard for fresh oxygen to get in

severely decreased Vital Capacity than predicted from height and weight (functional part of lung) Emphysema- alveoli loses function

physiological dead space (PDS)=ADS+any unused alveoli for young healthy person ADS and PDS are equal, no difference. But for someone with emphysema, pds much higher than ads

55
Q

nitrogen is a (blank) gas

A

Inert gas-neither consumed or produced

56
Q

percentages of gases in atmosphere

A
  • O2=20.93%
  • N2=0.03%
  • CO2=79.04%
57
Q

pressure of ambient air

A

159 mm hg

58
Q

pressure of air in alveoli

A

100mm hg

59
Q

pressure of o2 in tissues

A

10-40 mm hg, • PO2 reflects the metabolic rate of the tissue

60
Q

positive bohr effect

A

easier to dissociate oxygen
o Temperature increase (exercise); Ph decrease (lactic)
o Hyperventilation-level of CO2 dissolved in plasma goes down, so amount of carbonic acid goes down, which reduces the amount of alkaline buffers and increases pH, causing a R + bohr shift

61
Q

negative bohr effect

A

harder to disassociate O2, stronger bond

o Temperature decrease; Ph increase

62
Q

  • Males carry 10% more O2 per unit of blood
  • Males - (14-18 gm/100mL blood) - avg. 15.5g
