Q

What are the metabolic effects of carbohydrate feeding during exercise?

A

Spares muscle glycogen (not often observed)
Sustains liver glycogen (sustains plasma glucose)
Sustains high rates of carbohydrate oxidation and maintains plasma glucose concentration

What is the ceiling effect of exogenous oxidation rate?

A

1.2g/min

24
Q

Time to fatigue (fixed rate)
Measured in time/distance

26
Q

What is endurance performance?

A

Race scenario

27
Q

Maintaining high rates CHO oxidation during exercise

28
Q

What type of muscle fibre has “sparing”?

A

Type I

29
Q

What are the non-metabolic benefits from carbohydrate ingestion?

A

Reduces motor recruitment
Reduces power output

(from negative signals)

30
Q

Why may oxidation rate in the stomach be impaired?

A

Intestinal transport limitation
- Only so many membranes working at a maximal rate

31
Q

How can you prevent intestinal transport limitations?

A

Co-ingestion with carbohydrates with 2 different sugars and 2 transport mechanisms

32
Q

What is the main limitation to exogenous oxidation?

A

Intestinal carbohydrate oxidation

33
Q

What are the recommendations of carbohydrate intake scaled too?

A

Duration (some extent intensity)
