Study Notes
Course Information
- Course name: Exercise Physiology
- Course code: DPT-213
Learning Outcomes
- Identify concepts of total daily energy expenditure (TDEE)
- Explain effect of body weight on energy cost of physical activity
Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE)
- Determined by three factors:
- Resting metabolic rate (RMR)
- Thermogenic influence of consumed food
- Energy expended during physical activity
Energy Expenditure During Physical Activity
- Total energy expenditure = Basal Metabolism + Digestion (thermic effect of food) + Physical Activity
Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)
- Minimum energy needed to sustain body functions in waking state
- Oxygen consumption values for BMR usually range between 160 and 290 mL/min (0.8 to 1.43 kCal/min)
Resting Daily Energy Expenditure (RDEE)
- Can be predicted using models
- Models include body mass (BM), stature (S), and age (A)
- Equations exist to calculate RDEE for women and men
- Harris-Benedict Equation used for calculations during 24 hours
Activity Examples
- BM = 62.7 kg, S = 172.5 cm, A = 22.4 years
Estimation of RDEE Based on Fat-Free Body Mass (FFM)
- Generalized equation applicable to males and females: RDEE (kCal) = 370 + 21.6 (FFM, kg)
- Example: A male weighing 90.9 kg at 21% body fat has an estimated FFM of 71.7 kg.
Dietary-induced Thermogenesis
- Total energy expenditure = Basal Metabolism + Digestion (thermic effect of food) + Physical Activity
Thermic Effect of a Meal
- Two components:
- Obligatory thermogenesis (digestion and absorption; synthesis of protein, fat, and carbohydrate)
- Facultative thermogenesis (peaks in 30-90 minutes; depends on size and content of meal, attributed to sympathetic nervous system activity)
Estimation of Caloric Expenditure
- Caloric equivalent: kilocalories produced per liter of oxygen consumed
- Caloric cost: energy expenditure of an activity for a specified period of time
- Expressed as total calories (kcal), calories or kilojoules per minute (kcal·min-¹ or kJ-min-¹), relative to body weight (kcal-kg-1·min-1 or kJ-kg-1·min-¹)
Five-Level Classification of Physical Activity Based on Energy Expenditure
- Table showing energy expenditure levels in kcal/min-1,L/min-1, mLkg-1·min-1 and METS for both men and women
Estimation of Caloric Expenditure
- Carbohydrates are most efficient in oxygen use for energy production, followed by fat, then protein
Estimation of Caloric Expenditure
- Factors determining the caloric cost of activity include the amount of oxygen consumed, and the caloric equivalent.
- Calculation example to determine the energy expenditure of activity.
Cardiovascular Responses: Integration of Exercise Response
- Complex, fast, and finely tuned
- First priority: maintenance of blood pressure
- Blood flow maintained only as long as BP is stable
Cardiovascular variables
- HR (Heart Rate)
- SV (Stroke Volume)
- BP (Blood Pressure - SBP & DBP)
- TPR (Total Peripheral Resistance)
- Q (Cardiac output)
- RPP (Rate Pressure product)
Exercise Physiology for Health, Fitness, and Performance
- Written by Sharon A. Plowman and Denise L. Smith
- Published in the 3rd edition - Chapter 4 (pp. 105-108)
- Published in the 3rd edition - Chapter 12
Exercise Physiology: Nutrition, Energy, and Human Performance
- Written by William D. McArdle, Frank I. Katch, and Victor L. Katch
- Pages in the book, Chapter 8 and 9
Measurement of energy expenditure during exertion
- Calculating the energy expenditure of physical activity
Gross versus Net Energy Expenditure
- Gross expenditure or total values include resting energy requirement during the activity phase
- Net expenditure reflects the energy cost of the activity, excluding resting metabolism, over an equivalent time period
Field Estimates of gross Energy Expenditure during Exercise
- Calculation example for walking at a 20 min mi-1 pace (3 mi hr-1) - velocity is 80.4 m·min-1
- Walking oxygen consumption is 11.54 mL-kg-1-min-1
Problem solving examples
- Determining the number of kilocalories expended for various exercises
The Metabolic Equivalent (MET)
- Acronym for Metabolic Equivalent
- Represents the average seated rest energy cost for adults
- Set at 3.5 ml·kg-¹.min-1 of oxygen, or 1 kcal.kg-1.hr-1
- Used by exercise physiologists and physicians for metabolic equivalent values
Cardiac Output (Q)
- Q = HR x SV
- Increases with intensity, plateaus near VO2 max
- Normal values:
- Resting Q ~5 L/min
- Untrained Q max ~20 L/min
- Trained Q max ~40 L/min
Cardiovascular responses to prolonged, moderately intense exercise
- Measurement of cardiovascular variables over time during activity
- Cardiovascular drift is associated with rising body temperature
Upper-Body versus Lower-Body Aerobic Exercise
- Comparisons of cardiovascular responses during upper-body versus lower-body aerobic exercise
Arm versus Leg Exercise
- Comparison of metabolic responses during arm versus leg exercise
Cardiovascular Responses to Exercise
- Classification of exercise types
- Short-term, light to moderate submaximal aerobic exercise
- Long-term, moderate to heavy submaximal aerobic exercise
- Incremental aerobic exercise to maximum
Recovery of heart rate and blood pressure.
- Recovery from exercise depends on factors such as fitness level, temperature, and humidity, as well as duration and intensity of exercise
Pressure rate product (RPP)
- Index of myocardial oxygen consumption
- Used to assess myocardial workload
- Calculation of RPP (RPP = HR * SBP)
Pregnancy Effects on Cardiovascular Function.
- Pregnancy does not compromise absolute aerobic capacity
- Body weight increases, decreasing economy of movement
- Pulmonary ventilation increases during later stages of pregnancy, with a greater response to the submaximal exercise intensity
- The hormones increase the sensitivity of the respiratory center to carbon dioxide, which leads to increased maternal hyperventilation in response to exercise
