Sedentary:
1)

24
Q

………

A
25
Q

What is VO2 Max?

A

VO2 max is a plateau in O2 consumption with an increase in work rate

26
Q

How do you verify that VO2 max has been reached?

A

Not easy to tell:

1) Reaching age-predicted max heart rate (+/− 10 beats/min)
2) Achieving blood lactate concentration of 8 mM or higher
3) Attaining a respiratory exchange ratio of 1.15 or higher

27
Q

What is a Lactate threshold? What is the difference in trained and untrained?

A

work rate (intensity) at which blood lactate rises during incremental exercise
Exponential increase.

28
Q

Can you maintain exercise at your lactate threshold?

A

Barley. A lot of fatigue build-up

29
Q

What is OBLA?

A

Onset of blood lactate accumulation.
When blood lactate levels reach 4 mmol/L

30
Q

Why do we have a lactate threshold? What 4 factors contribute to an elevated lactate threshold?

With lengthy explanation

A

1) Low muscle oxygen (Hypoxia)
.
2) Recruitment of fast twitch muscle fibers——Makes more lactate
.
3) Reduced rate of lactate removal from the blood—(Clearing it as fast as you’re making it). (I THINK?? Listen to 11 mins)
.
4) Accelerated glycolysis
—NADH is being made after that. You can shuttle it to the mitochondria (It turns pyruvate to lactate)
.
All this spikes the blood lactate.

31
Q

Why do we have a lactate threshold? What 4 factors contribute to an elevated lactate threshold?

A

1) Low muscle oxygen
2) Accelerated glycolysis due to epinephrine
3) REcurtment if fast twitch muscle
4) …..

32
Q

Does lactate production during exercise cause muscle soreness? How does location contribute to fatigue? What causes soreness?

A

NO!! It does not cause fatigue or soreness, it’s actually energy.

It’s linked because lactate makes everything more acidic and simulates pain receptors.

Soreness is because the muscle is torn

33
Q

What does the respiratory exchange ratio measure? (RER)

A

RER —A non-invasive technique to estimate fuel utilization during exercise.

(VCO2/VO2) —The ratio of carbon dioxide produced to the oxygen consumed

(Assumes No protein is used–even tho you’re always burning some protein)

34
Q

In order to measure respiratory exchange ratio the participant must…

A

be exercising at a steady state

35
Q

What is the caloric equivalent of oxygen?
Fat alone—
Carbohydrates alone—

Which is more efficient?

A

Fat—4.7 kcal
Carbohydrate—5.0

36
Q

What percentage of the respiratory exchange ratio does it take to burn either fat or carbs?

A

Fat—.70
Carbs—1.0

37
Q

What are the factors that decide which fuel selection during exercise?
(which system will it choose?)

A

1) Exercise Intensity
2) Exercise duration
3) Availability of fuels—What do you eat the most?
4) Level of endurance training? —(How well you burn fat)

38
Q

Low-intensity- exercise? (like walking low)
What. does it burn?
Which system?

A

Burns—Fats
(<30% VO2 Max)

39
Q

High-intensity exercise?
What. does it burn?
Which system?

A

Burns—Carbs primarily
(>70% VO2 Max)

40
Q

What is the cross-over concept?

A

Buring both fat and Carbs
—Lighter intensity—Fat
—More intense exercise—Carbs

41
Q

What happens during Prolonged, moderate-intensity exercise? What are it’s effects? How long does it take?

A

40-60% VO2 Max

—Longer you exercise, shifts form burning Carbs to fats
—Shift take 10-20 mins

42
Q

Why/ how do we shift what we burn during crossover?

A

Due to an increased rate of lipolysis:
—Breaks down Triglycerids—Glycerol + FFA
—Raises blood lvels and hormones

43
Q

Fats___ in the ___ of Carbohydrates

A

Burns;
flames

44
Q

Glycogen is depleted during –––– (e.g., > 2 hours):

A

prolonged,
high-intensity exercise

45
Q

What happens when glycolgen is depleted?

A

Reduced rate of glycolysis and
—production of pyruvate

Reduced citric acid (Krebs) cycle
—intermediates

Reduced fat oxidation
——(that would’ve been metabolized by Krebs cycle)

46
Q

No Glycolsis no

A

krebs cycle

47
Q

You need ___ to break down fat

A

Carbohydrate intermediates

48
Q

The — of muscle and blood –– stores contributes to fatigue

A

depletion; carbohydrate

49
Q

Prolonged exercise at a ____ intensity = 20% VO2 Max
Burns what?

A

prolonged; low

Burns fat

50
Q

Where is carbohydrates stored?

A

muscle glycogen (main)
blood glucose (diet and liver)

51
Q

Where are free fatty acids stored?
(2 places)

What is fat stored as?

A

Muscle fat stores——(intramuscular tryglicrides)

White adipocytes
—found all over the body
—fat is stored as triglycerides in adipocytes

(More trained, more fatt in muscle. but they also have more enzymes to burn it)

52
Q

Which fat do you burn first?

A

You burn fat in the muscle first then it goes to the fat tissue

53
Q

List in order which has the most calories.

Muscle glycogen, liver glycogen, adipose tissue, blood glucose

A

1.

54
Q

Low exercise intensity burns:
25% VO2 Max

A

largest fat burn

Mainly plasma free fatty acids
glycogen

55
Q
A

Glycogen mainly used for higher-intensity

56
Q

Know the progression of the % of energy derived from fuel sources during prolonged submaximal exercise (slide 4.16)

Muscle glycogen
Blood glucose
Plasma-free fatty acids
Muscle triglycerides

A

Muscle Glycogen—Good for high intensity but depletes in time
Blood glucose— increases as time goes one
Plasma Free fatty acids —used during long exercise
Muscle tricglrides—relatively consistent

57
Q

Cori Cycle: lactate as fuel: What is the core cycle?

What are two ways we can get ride of lactate?

A

after fast glycolysis= a lot of lactate in the blood

  1. The Cori cycle clears lactate and turns it back to glucose. = called gluconeogenesis
  2. Slow twitch fibers oxidize lactate by shuttling it to the mitochondria and it turns into pyruvate again
