Q

which goal do we accomplish first- neural or metabolic

A

metabolic
-if we did neural training in general prep it would stunt the athletes ceiling
-must first gain muscle to maximize their ceiling, THEN increase power + force ability

19
Q

neural adaptations

A

-motor unit recruitment increases
-rate coding increases
-improvements at the synapse (improved release of ACh, improved release of ACh esterase to reuptake, etc.)
-decreased coactivation ratio
-decreased GTO activation (not on slides but in quiz because debated)

21
Q

neural goals

describe rate coding due to resistance training

A

-after resistance training, there is a decrease in the amount of time it takes for a muscle to depolarize
-also, the APs sent to the muscle are much more frequent + faster

22
Q

neural goals

which 2 things have been shown to improve rate coding frequency

A

-velocity
-force

23
Q

neural goals

describe improvements at the synapse

A

-overall, release more ACh in shorter time, more receptors on muscle site
-amount of choline/ACh transferase enzyme increases
-number of dispersion vesicles that perform exocytosis of ACh increase
-increase in acetylcholinesterase with training
-increase in the number of receptors for acetylcholine

-studies show these actually increase more with cardio- but might be because we can’t test animals on resistance training

24
Q

neural goals

elaborate on decreased coactivation ratio

A

-with resistance training, there is a decreased amount that the antagonist is recruited with action of the agonist muscle group
-when someone begins working out, they are not good at isolating the main muscles, but the longer they train, the more force from agonist compared to antagonist is generated

-force increases for both over time, but more for agonist

25
Q

metabolic adaptations

A

-hypertrophy (biggest adaptation we see)
-enzymatic changes (increase in enzymes of glycolysis + improvements in buffering capabilities)

26
Q

acute changes are also called ____

A

responses

27
Q

acute changes/responses

definition

A

the changes that occur in the body during + shortly after an exercise bout

28
Q

acute changes for resistance training

neurological responses

A

-EMG amplitude increases
-number of motor units recruited increases until fatigue sets in

29
Q

acute changes for resistance training

muscular changes

A

-metabolites build up
-fuel substrates begin to deplete

-hydrogen ion concentration increases
-inorganic phosphate concentration increases
-ammonia levels increase
-ATP concentration no change or slight decrease
-creatine phosphate concentration decreases
-glycogen concentration decreases

30
Q

acute changes for resistance training

endocrine changes

A

both catabolic + anabolic hormones are increased with training

-epinephrine concentration increases
-cortisol concentration increases
-testosterone concentration increases
-growth hormone concentration increases

31
Q

acute changes for resistance training

catabolic hormones (2)

A

stimulate release of energy
-epinephrine
-cortisol

32
Q

acute changes for resistance training

anabolic hormone (1)

A

mobilizes energy sources, breaks down glycogen storage so we have more glucose
-growth hormone

33
Q

acute changes for resistance training

what do we want to happen to acute adaptations after working out

A

we want all these things to go back to homeostatic levels
-if they don’t go back down, we stay in a stressed response

34
Q

chronic changes for resistance training

A

long-term changes in the structure + function of the body as a consequence of exercise training

35
Q

chronic changes for resistance training

-muscle endurance increases
-muscle power increases

Q

chronic changes for resistance training

describe muscle vs fat activity

A

-muscle is 6x more active than fat
-at rest muscle burns 6x more calories than fat
-because of this, muscle requires a bunch of energy to maintain
-this is why you lose it if you don’t use it

Q

anytime you put stress on tendons (peri/epi/endomysium), what do you see

A

increased CT strength

45
Q

transient hypertrophy

A

hypertrophy that occurs after a single exercise bout
