energy expenditure equation
fuel+O2= energy+heat+CO2+h2o
heat
direct calorimetry
O2 and CO2
indirect calorimetry
40% of substrate energy from
ATP
60% of substrate energy from
heat
direct calorimetry
measures energy expenditure directly t
indirect calorimetry
measures metabolic gases to indirectly measure energy expenditure
measuring energy expenditure =
estimates the total body energy expenditure based on O2 used and CO2 produced
O2 used in
ETC
CO2 is produced in
Krebs and PDH
VO2
volume of O2 consumed per minute
calculating VO2=
volume of inpsired O2 -volume of expired O2
why does venous blood have lower O2
tissues have consumed the oxygen out of it
VCO2
volume of CO2 consumed per minute
calculating VCO2=
volume expried -volume inpsired
whis is CO2 breathed out larger than CO2 breathed in
CO2 production in bioenergetics and the extra CO2 enters the blood as a waste product
venous blood CO2 content is
high
arterial blood CO2 content is
lower
(A-V) O2 difference
subtracting arterial from Venous and getting O2 difference
lowest VO2 =
resting or RMR
highest VO2 =
VO2 max
everytime RER =0.80
RER eq. = 4.80 kcals/ L O2
everytime RER= 0.95
RER eq. = 4.99 kcals/ L O2
Maximal VO2 uptake (VO2 peak)
point at which O2 consumption doesnt increase with further increase in intensity
aterial blood O2
highest because blood has just gone through the lungs
venous blood O2
lowest because blood has passed through the tissues
Vo2 max best measures
fitness
adaptions that can increase VO2 peak
- increase mitochondria
- increase hemoglobin
- increase mypglobin
- add capillaries
absolute VO2 peak
L/min
better used in non weight bearing actiives
relative Vo2 peak
ML/kg/min
most accurate when comparing
-body sizes
-body composition
-sexes
criteria for reaching VO2 max
- plataue in O2 uptake
-< 2 ml/kg/min difference during last 2 minutes - HR
->95% max HR - RER > 1.10
2 of 3
how to find predicted HR
220-AGE
VT
Point at which VE/Vo2 begins to rise disproportionately and without a corresponding increase in VE/VO2
-follows lactate threshold
when ventilation begins to increase disproportionately
ventilatory threshold equivalents
VE/VCO2
VE/VO2
lactate threshold
when lactate begins to appear in the blood
mitochondria consumes
pyruvate but all of it that cannot be consumed spills over into the blood
fatigue after VT and LT
increase acidity (decrease in Ph)
increase in H
buffering capacity is overwhelmed
acidity inhibits which bioenergetic pathways
glycolysis, krebs and ETC
VT and LT indicate
performance
indirect calorimetry limitations
- CO2 production may not =CO2 exhalation
- RER inaccurate for protein oxidation
- lactate use a fuel produces RER about 1.0 due to CO2 exhalation
- gluconeogenesis produces RER <0.70
1 L O2/min =
5 kcals
1 met =
3.5 ml/kg/min
light intnesity =
< 3.0 mets
medium intensity =
3.0-5.9 Met
high intensity =
> 6.0 met
metabolic rate =
rate of energy used by body
RMR
rate of energy used at rest and to sustain life
steady state
when the work is constant
VO2 consumption, metabolic rate, and VO2 increase with
exercise
O2 deficit
O2 demand is greater than O2 consumed
pathways that supply energy during O2 deficit
PCR and glycolysis
EPOC
represents that difference between O2 consumption and O2 demand
-O2 consumed is greater than demand
reasons for EPOC
- elevated hormones
- oxidizing lactate
- thermoregulation
- ion redistribution
- elevated breathing and HR
anaerobic sports
high intensity
short duration
bioenergetics - PCr, glycolysis (incomplete)
successful endurance athletes have
High Vo2 max
high LT
high economy of effort
high % of type 1 fibers
high LT =
better endurance performance
fatigue
decrements in muscular performance with continued effort
2. inability to maintain required power output to continue muscular work at given intensity
fatigue causes
- inadequate energy delivery
- accumulation of metabolic pathways
- heat
- altered neural control of muscle contraction
inadequate energy delievery
Phosphocreatine depletion
PCr is used for short term intensity
glycogen depletion =
hitting a wall
fiber type recruitment
Type 1 first
type 2a (moderate-high Intensity)
type 2x recruited last (maximal intensity)
H+ accumulates during a brief high intensity exercise causes
a decrease in muscle PH
Altered neural control of muscle contraction
failure may occur at the neuromuscular junction, preventing muscle activation
endocrine system
message delivery system
hormone-producing tissue
glands and pancreas
target cells
cells that a hormone communicates with
non steroid hormones communication
binds to an exterior cell membrane
-stimulates secondary messengr
non steroid hormones are made from
amino acids and not lipid soluble
protein/peptide hormones
insulin, glucagon, growth hormone
amino acid derived hormone
thyroid hormones, adrenal hormones, epinephrine and norepinephrine
steroid hormone communication
all hormones deliver a message inside the cell
steriod hormones are made from
cholesterol
lipid soluble
examples of steroid hormone
adrenal hormone (cortisol) , sex hormones
homeostasis and feedback system
- stimulus
- receptor
- control center
- effector
- stimulus reduced
the primary role of the endocrine system is to maintain body homeostasis
-blood sugar
-body temp
-metabolism
-blood calcium
-blood pressure
-hydration
negative feedback loop
increased output from system; inhibits system output
