Exercise Metabolism and Bioenergetics Flashcards
Bioenergetics
Use of energy in the body
Catabolism
breaking down
Anabolism
building up
Metabolism
all chemical processes in the body
Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP)
Molecule of energy
ATP is used to power _ _
muscular activity
1 ATP =
approx. 7.3 Kcal
Energy systems that replenish ATP
ATP-PC system
Glycolysis
Oxidative system
The ATP cycle
ATP (hydrolysis creates energy) ADP + P ADP + C ATP + C OR ATP + P starts over with ATP
Phosphagen
any phosphate (ATP / CP)
Major Fuels
ADP
CP
(Very small amount in muscle)
(readily available)
ADP
Adenosine Di-phosphate
CP
Creatine Phosphate
The ATP-PC system occurs in _
sarcoplasm
Making new ATP
ADP + CP -> ATP + C
By products
creatine
Once ATP and CP are depleted the body gets ATP from
the next energy system
ATP Production/ Length of time
Net Production = 1 ATP
First part of every movement
any activity only lasting 10-15 seconds
Glycolysis major fuel
Glucose from glycogen
- stored in liver and muscles
- small amount, but more than ATP / CP
Glycolysis Process
CCCCCC
(glucose)
CCC CCC
(pyruvate #1) (pyruvate #2)
Anaerobic Aerobic
Glycolysis Glycolysis
Anaerobic (fast) glycolysis occurs in the
sarcoplasm
Anaerobic (fast) glycolysis happens when
little 02 is present
Anaerobic (fast) glycolysis. The pyruvate is converted to
Lactate
(this process creates ATP
Anaerobic (fast) glycolysis. By product
lactic acid and H2O
Anaerobic (fast) glycolysis. High _ short _
high int%
short duration
Aerobic (slow) glycolysis occurs in
mitochondria
Aerobic (slow) glycolysis happens when
sufficient O2 is present
Aerobic (slow) glycolysis process. The pyruvate is converted to
Acetyl CoA
Acetyl CoA is sent to the
krebs cycle
- a series of reactions that produce ATP
- Acetyl CoA goes thru 2x
Aerobic (slow) glycolysis/ By products
H2O and CO2
