Carbohydrate (CHO) And Sport Part 2 Flashcards
How much CHO per day on ketogenic diet
<20g/day
6 aerobic training response and CHO metabolism
- Increase VO2 max
- Work at higher % VO2 max without fatigue
- Enhance use of glucose (less used at low intensity, increased capacity during intense/max exercise)
- Decrease fatigue
- Increase glucose uptake in cells
- Increase muscle glycogen resynthesis and storage
How is there an increase vo2 max as aerobic training response
By increasing oxygen utilization and oxygen delivery efficiency
How is fatigue decrease as aerobic training response
By increasing lactate clearance which decreases lactate and H+ accumulation
How is glucose uptake increase in cells as an aerobic training response
By an increase in transporters
What should a dietician do to figure out CHO intake for an athlete
Start with the equation then break it down based on athletes characteristics
General population male and female recommended dietary allowances (RDA) of CHO
130g/day
Minimum amount set for adults and children for brain function
(1g CHO=4cal, 130g =520cal)
Acceptable macronutrient distribution range (ADMR) for CHO
45-65% of total calories consumed
The more extreme the exercise (intensity and length)
The more CHO needed for fuel and recovery
General fueling up
Prep for events <90 min
7-12g/kg per 24h as for daily fuel needs
carbohydrate loading
Prep for events >90min of sustained/intermittent exercise
36-48 hrs of 10-12 g/kg BM per 24 hr
Pre-event fuelling
Before exercise >60min
1-4 g/kg BM (consumed 1-4 hr pre-comp)
During brief exercise
<45min
Not required
During sustained high-intensity exercise
45-75min
Small amounts including mouth rinse
during endurance exercise including “stop and start” sports
1-2.5 hrs
30-60 g/hr
When new start at 30 and build up to 60
During ultra endurance exercise
> 2.5-3 hrs
Up to 90 g/hr using multiple transportable carbs (glucose, fructose mix)
Speedy refuelling
<8 hr recovery between 2 fuel demanding sessions
1-1.2 g/kg BM every hr for first 4hr then resume daily fuelling needs
When should recovery meal happen
As close to exercise as possible
If CHO stores are adequate during continuous exercise <90 mins
CHO feeding may be uneccessary
AM training session after overnight fast?
As increase of duration, should eat
If short not eating may not effect
CHO ingestion shortly before short duration exercise (<30mins)
May have a negligible effect on performance
When should what works best for you with CHO intake be tested
In training not in competition
Is there benefit in CHO before high intensity exercise (<30min) and high intensity resistance training
No benefit?
See what works for athlete
Is there benefit for CHO feeding during high intensity exercise (30-90min)
Possible benefit
Due to increase in glucose provision for fast twitch muscle fibers
Is there benefit to CHO feeding during intermittent high intensity exercise (60-90min)
Benefit
Increased CHO ingestion may spare muscle glycogen
Is there benefit to CHO feeding during high to moderate intensity exercise >90mins
Yes
If exercise intensity is high enough
Why is performance enhanced by CHO during >90min high to moderate intensity exercise
Maintaining/raising plasma glucose concentrations to help sustain high rates of CHO oxidation
4 CHO feeding strategy concepts
- Manipulate daily CHO intake to match likely fuel requirements
- Promote high CHO availability for performance and comp
- Promote low CHO availability for selected non-performance training sessions
- Provide adequate CHO for refuelling when speedy recovery is priority (training or compete within 8 or less hrs)
Why promote low CHO availability for selected non-performance training sessions
Concept of training low
Low glycogen availability
