Study Notes
Adaptations in Energy Systems and Enzymes with Training
- Intensity of the workout affects the decrease in PCr (phosphocreatine) after training.
- Sprint training leads to a faster rate of ATP hydrolysis and increased activity of ATPases and ATP regeneration enzymes.
- Sprinters have higher levels of ATP and total creatine compared to endurance athletes.
- Carbohydrates are the primary fuel source at high power output, while fats are utilized more at lower intensities.
- Training increases the capacity of GLUT-4 transporters, allowing for more efficient glucose uptake into muscle cells.
- Trained individuals have higher glycogen stores and use them less, saving them for higher intensity or longer duration exercise.
- Lactate is better utilized as fuel in trained individuals, particularly in type 2 muscle fibers.
- Fatty acids have limitations in blood availability and oxidizing capacity as a fuel source.
- Protein has minimal involvement in energy production, but increased alanine production and removal occur during exercise.
- Enzyme adaptations include increased activity of glycogen phosphorylase, PFK (rate-limiting enzyme in glycolysis), and LDH (lactate dehydrogenase).
- Training increases mitochondrial volume and enzyme concentration, particularly in subsarcolemmal mitochondria.
- Myoglobin levels increase with training, enhancing the capacity for oxygen transport and oxidative phosphorylation.
