ergogenic aids Flashcards
What are the pharmaolocial aids?
Anabolic steroids, Erythropoietin Human growth hormone
What are the physiological aids?
blood doping, Intermit-tent hypoxic training, cooling aids
What is the anabolic steroid?
Illegal, oharmolgoical mimcics the male hormone of tester tone. Increases muscle synthesis. taken via injection/pills. Increase injury prevention Prevents acne cause liver cancer weightlifters benefit Grow facial hare/dependeds voice
What is enthryoproetin?
Stimulates abc growth, alternative to blood doping, stimulates red blood cells
produced by kidneys, released from kidneys and stimulates bone marrow to increase red blood cell productiion
Prevent hyper-vicosity in blood
Treats kidney
What are the benefits of eco?
Increases haeombolobin incereasing oxygen to muscles
increases oxygen max and aerobic capacity
delayed fatigue for performers
What are the risks of epo?
Thickening of blood, increase viscoity
Deadly diseases like blood clot- heart failure
danger when body becomes dehydrated in hot conditions
plasma volume decreases which increases blood thickcness
lead to auto-immune diseases
need more plasma volume
decreases stroke volume
What are the risks of epo?
Thickening of blood, increase viscoity
Deadly diseases like blood clot- heart failure
danger when body becomes dehydrated in hot conditions
plasma volume decreases which increases blood thickcness
lead to auto-immune diseases
Who would benefit fro epo?
Endurance/aerobic performers like cycling
What is the drug human growth?
Injected in form of cream
Mimics natural growth hormone produced by pitruary to stimulate growth of cartilage
Important in metabolism
What is the drug human growth?
Injected in form of cream
Mimics natural growth hormone produced by pitruary to stimulate growth of cartilage
Important in metabolism
What are the benefits of the human growth hormone?
Increases muscle mass and strength, increases recovry
Increases cartilage cells/bone growth density
Inrcreases healing of soft tissues
Increases metabolism of protein/ fat that is known to increases blood glucose and fat free mass
What are the risks of human gr owth?
Increases hypertrophy of organs, intestines and muscles weaken
Increase risk of diabetes- blood glucose level high
increases bone thickening
increases organs, heart size and liver life treating- heart disease
heart loses ability to pump, irregular heart beats
Who uses human growth hormone?
Powe/sprint performers high intensity training
what are the negatives of epo?
cheating- unfair
hard to detect- difficult to test
infection from neeeles_ hiv contamination
reduced resting hr which will reduce cost
decreased natural
What are the negatives of anabolic steroids?
Can cause liver damage, acne, aggression, hormonal balance
athletes take massive dosage lead to hormonal balace- androgynous effects; men stop producing testosterone cause women to have facial hair- more prominent jawline
what are the benefits of anabolic steroids?
Increase in myscle strength, increase in explosive strength and muscle power
better intensity of training- more adapatatios better performance
What are the positives of ego?
As it is synthetic we can produce it, stimulates red blood cells, 45% red blood cell composition, increase ego increases composition, increasing v02 max, increases delay obla
ego is natural- we produce it, in bone marrow
what
what are the positives of th human growth?
can be naturally occurring, increases fat metabolic, increases muscle synthesis , increases blood glucose level-
what is the process of blood doping?
1-4 weeks before, transfusion separate red blood cells from plasma store them in a fridge retransfuse mix system with saline
what are the benefits of blood doping?
Increased red blood cell content
delays obla
buffering capacity
what are the negatives of blood doping?
His effecs, infections risk increase blood viscosity blood clots increase blood pressure decreased cardiac output blood transports to limit
what are the negatives of blood doping?
His effecs, infections risk increase blood viscosity blood clots increase blood pressure decreased cardiac output blood transports to limit
What is intermittent hypoxic champer?
Mask put into hypoxic air, 21% less 02 barometric pressure of oxygen
breathe less oxygen into gas mask
what are the benefits of intermittent?
Increased red blood cells delays obla improves aerobic capacity increases oxygen diffusion gradient increases gaseous exchange increased mitronconra more haemoglobin buffer better during performance
what are the negatives of intermittent?
Decrease immune fucntion- might get ill as not natural
not normal- not natural
dehydration
boring
what are the benefits of towel wraps?
Decrease in cardio vascular drift, less thermal strain
decreased hydration
what are the benefits of ice packs?
Decrease inflammation- price method
less swelling
what are the benefits of cryotehrapy/
decreased in Doms fewer
What are the negatives of cooling?
MAsk injuries
not humane for elderly
