Study Notes
Anaerobic Glycolysis
- Occurs without oxygen, rapidly breaking down glucose or glycogen into glucose-6-phosphate.
- Requires energy to convert glucose to glucose-6-phosphate, involving 10 enzymatic reactions in the cytoplasm.
- Produces 2 ATP from glucose and 3 ATP from glycogen for high-intensity activities lasting around 15 seconds.
Regulation of Anaerobic Glycolysis
- Glycolytic enzymes (hexokinase, pyruvate kinase, PFK) regulate the process, with PFK acting as a limiting enzyme influenced by ATP and ADP levels.
- Fructose-1,6-bisphosphate levels are crucial for regulating glycolysis.
- Abundant oxygen availability can limit glycolysis efficiency.
Lactate Utilization
- Taitate acts as a metabolic fuel during exercise, utilizing lactate for energy.
- Muscles can use lactate in three ways: oxidized in the same fibers, transported via MCT transporters to other muscles for oxidation.
- Lactate shuttle facilitates energy transfer but is inhibited by ATP and activated by ADP.
Energy from Fat
- Triglycerides are the main fat energy source, broken down into glycerol and free fatty acids (FFAs).
- Fats yield 3 to 4 times more ATP than glucose but are metabolized slower.
- Fat contributes approximately 30-80% of energy based on nutritional status and physical activity intensity.
Mobilization of Fats
- Lipases stimulate fat breakdown, responding to hormonal secretions during energy demands.
- Blood transports FFAs released from adipocytes to energyactivated muscles.
Fatty Acid Catabolism
- Fatty acids convert to acetyl-CoA in mitochondria through β-oxidation for entry into the Krebs cycle.
- Palmitic acid (16C) produces 8 acetyl-CoA with a net yield of 106 ATP, accounting for an initial expenditure of 2 ATP.
- Hormonal influences on lipolysis include epinephrine, norepinephrine, and glucagon, which enhance FFAs mobilization from adipose tissue during exercise.
Protein Breakdown
- Blood lactate accumulation occurs during maximal exercise, typically around 60-180 seconds.
- Blood lactate threshold indicates when muscles cannot meet energy demands, leading to reduced aerobic oxidation rates.
Aerobic Metabolism
- Primary energy source beyond one to two minutes of intense exercise.
- Involves adjustments in strength and immediate energy systems.
Training Principles
- Individualized training programs for varied responses based on genetics and metabolic differences.
- Overload principle applies to training adaptations, enhancing aerobic power in specifically trained muscles.
- Reversibility principle: Detraining occurs rapidly, with significant losses in fitness within 1-2 weeks.
Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE)
- Metabolism encompasses all reactions related to biomolecules, involving anabolism and catabolism.
- Factors influencing TDEE include resting metabolic rate (largest contributor), thermic effect of food, and energy expenditure during physical activity.
Basal and Resting Metabolic Rates
- Basal metabolic rate (BMR) represents the minimum energy required for vital functions.
- Resting metabolic rate (RMR) is slightly higher than BMR, reflecting caloric burn at rest.
- Influences on metabolic rates include body size, composition, and hormonal factors with variations observed based on age and body fat percentage.
