Q

Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) (7)

A
  1. Classified as a high-energy molecule
  2. Because it stores large amounts of energy in the chemical bonds of the two terminal phosphate groups
  3. Allows the transfer of energy from exergonic to endergonic reactions
  4. Energy derived from catabolic/exergonic reactions is used to drive anabolic/endergonic reactions through this intermediate molecule, ATP
  5. Composed of Adenosine and 3 phosphate groups
  6. S&C professionals need to have a basic understanding of how exercise affects ATP hydrolysis and re-synthesis when designing training programs
  7. Because muscle cells store ATP only in limited amounts and activity requires a constant supply of ATP to provide the energy needed for muscle actions, ATP-producing processes must occur in the cell

Q

Phosphagen System

A
  1. Provides ATP primarily for short-term, high-intensity activities
  2. Is highly active at the start of all exercise regardless of intensity
  3. This energy system relies on the hydrolysis of ATP and breakdown of another high-energy phosphate molecule called creatine phosphate (CP)
  4. Because CP is stored in relatively small amounts, the phosphagen system cannot be the primary supplier of energy for continuous, long-duration activities
  5. Through CP and the creatine kinase reaction, this system serves as an energy reserve for rapidly replenishing ATP

Q

Glycolysis

A
  1. The breakdown of carbohydrate- either glycogen store in the muscle or glucose delivered in the blood- to resynthesize ATP
  2. The process involves multiple enzymatically catalyzed reactions
  3. As a result, the ATP resynthesis rate during glycolysis is not as rapid as with the single-step phosphagen system
  4. However, the capacity to produce ATP is much higher due to a larger supply of glycogen and glucose compared to CP
  5. Occurs in the sarcoplasm
36
Q

Law of Mass Action

A
  1. The reactions of the phosphagen system are largely controlled by the law of mass action
  2. Also known as the mass action effect
  3. The concentrations of reactants or products (or both) in solution will drive the direction of the reactions
  4. With enzyme-mediated reactions, such as the reactions of the phosphagen system, the rate of product formation is greatly influenced by the concentrations of the reactants
37
Q

Pyruvate

A
  1. The end result of glycolysis
  2. Can be converted to lactate in the sarcoplasm
  3. Also can be shuttled into the mitochondria, to undergo the Krebs cycle
  4. The fat of pyruvate is ultimately controlled by the energy demands within the cell
  5. If energy demand is high and must be transferred quickly, as during resistance training, pyruvate is primarily converted to lactate for further support of anaerobic glycolysis
  6. If energy demand is not as high and oxygen is present in the cell, pyruvate can be further oxidized in the mitochondria
38
Q

Anaerobic Glycolysis

A
  1. When pyruvate is converted to lactate, ATP resynthesis occurs at a faster rate
  2. But is limited in duration due due to the subsequent H+ production and resulting decrease in cytosolic pH
  3. Also known as fast glycolysis
39
Q

Aerobic Glycolysis

A
  1. Also known as slow glycolysis
  2. When pyruvate is shuttled into the mitochondria to undergo the Krebs cycle, the ATP resynthesis rate is slower because of the numerous reactions
  3. But it can occur for a longer duration if exercise intensity is low enough
  4. However, because glycolysis itself does not depend on oxygen, the terms anaerobic and aerobic glycolysis are probably not practical
40
Q

Metabolic Acidosis

A
  1. The process of an exercise-induced decrease in pH
  2. May be responsible for much of the peripheral fatigue during exercise
41

Lactate

A

  2. Although the muscular fatigue experienced during exercise often correlates with high tissue concentrations of lactate, lactate is not the cause of fatigue
  3. Often used as an energy substrate, especially in Type I and cardiac muscle fibers
  4. It is also used in gluconeogenesis
  5. Normally, there is a low concentration of lactate in blood and muscle
  6. Normal range of lactate concentration in blood is 0.5 to 2.2 mmol/L at rest
  7. And 0.5 to 2.2 mmol for each kilogram of wet muscle
  8. Lactate production increases with exercise intensity
