What is a dietary supplement?
Any product taken to supplement the diet
5K is what percentage of VO2max?
> 95%
10K is what percentage of VO2max?
> 90%
Marathon is what percentage of VO2max?
~78%
CHO is an
ergogenic aid
Typical recommendation for CHo intake fo ran undurance athlete is
6g of CHO / kg of body mass
Typical athlete diet for CHO
55%
Typical athlete diet for Protein
15%
typical athlete diet for fat
30%
A high CHO die shows what kind of performance?
high performance.
High CHO diet after training results in?
Faster recovery, getting back to resting level
30 minutes after exercise, we are able to
have 3x more glycolysis synthesis when ingesting more CHO
high cho good for
high intensity
when can low cho diet be beneficial?
during initial base phase
carbohydrate loading - 7 days prior to event you should
take cho so that its possible to exercse for longer
cho loading - 3-5 days prior:
high% and volume cho diet. goal of 10g/kg/day
consequences of cho loading?
may feel heavy/floated
nausea
diarrhea
insomnia
how much glucose can we intake per hour
60g
how much fructose can we take per hour
30g
testosterone leads to what for bone formation?
increase in bone formation, meaning larger bones
testosterone leads to what for protein synthesis?
increase in protein synthesis, meaning larger muscles and faster repair
testosterone leads to what for epo secretion
increase in epo secretion, leading to increase in red blood cell production
testosterone leads to what heart size is males?
larger heart sizes in males
esrogen leads to what with fat deposiiton?
increase in fat deposition , meaning increase in fat mass and percent body fat
esrogen leads to what with short stature
faster bone growth (ends earlier) and lower total body mass
difference bw men and women during marathon
9%
difference bw men and women during 100 milers
+2%
difference bw mean and women for deadlift
19%
muscle strength differences - upper body
women 40 to 60% lower force
muscle strength differences - lower body
women 25 to 30 % lower force
muscle strength differences due to
total muscle mass difference
In same absolute submaximal workload, CO for women is
sane as neb
In same absolute submaximal workload, sv and hr are
lower and higher when compared to men
In same absolute submaximal workload, heart size in women result in
smaller harts, lower blood volume
for same relative submaximal workout, women hr, sv, and CO is
increased, decreased, and decreased
for same relative submaximal workout, women: what type of o2 consumption?
lower o2 consumption than when compared to men
womens lower CO output limits
VO2 max
womans SVmax limited by
heart size and plasma volume
what does hemoglobin do for women in vo2 max?
lower hemoglobin limits vo2 max
sex differences in lactate threshold?
lactate threshold occurs at same percent VO2max
hyperthrophy in women vs men?
less hyperthrophy in women vs men
what type of mechanism is more important for women?
neural mechanisms
hot environments” progesterone in luteal phase trigger…
increase in temperature by ~0.5 celsius.
hot environments: may not be a real issue because of
more efficient sweating and even better with adapion
