Exercise Physiology II (19) Flashcards
What are the 4 anaerobic supplies of ATP?
1- “stored” ATP
2- Myokinase reaction (ADP + ADP)
3- Creatine phosphate
4- Glycolysis
What are the aerobic supplies of ATP?
CHO, Fatty Acid and Amino Acid oxidation
Which is quicker to turn on…aerobic or anaerobic ATP generating pathways?
Anaerobic
What is O2 deficit?
ATP is provided by anaerobic mechanisms until aerobic mechanisms can turn on
What is O2 debt?
Continuing aerobic mechanisms even after ATP demand has stopped in order to replace ATP, Creatine Phosphate and O2 stores
What is the anaerobic threshold?
When anaerobic processes supplement ATP production.
Is the anaerobic threshold the same for every individual?
No..it varies between people and it can be increased with training
What is the relationship between RER and exercise intensity?
RER increases with higher intensity workout
Do you oxidize more FAs or CHOs in higher intesity exercise?
More CHO and less FAs
What does RER during exercise depend on?
1- Exercise intensity
2- Prior dietary history
3- Exercise duration
4- Fitness level
Does exercise fatigue come quicker on a high fat diet or a high carb diet?
High fat diet
What is the cause of increased glucose uptake by skeletal muscle during exercise?
Enhanced insulin sensitivity
When is glycogen depletion most severe?
When exercise is performed at about 75% VO2 max.
What is the cause of fatigue at most % of VO2 max?
Causes aside from glycogen depletion.
Describe the differences in FA mobilization and utilization between trained and untrained muscle?
Trained muscle takes up and oxidizes more free fatty acids and mobilizes more free fatty acids
