    Study Notes

    Protein Structure

    • Protein structure is determined by the arrangement of amino acids within a polypeptide chain
    • The primary structure is the amino acid sequence, linked by chemical bonds
    • Secondary structure is determined by weak electrical attractions within polypeptides, forming alpha-helix or beta-sheets
    • Tertiary structure results from the polypeptide chain twisting and folding, where side groups interact with each other, forming an intricate shape.
    • Quaternary structure involves interactions between multiple polypeptide chains, forming larger complexes

    Protein Functions

    • Proteins play numerous vital roles in the body
    • Components of enzymes: Catalyze chemical reactions in the body
    • Components of hormones and signaling proteins: Regulate metabolic processes and cellular functions
    • Structural proteins: Provide structural support for cells and tissues
    • Transport proteins: Facilitate the transport of molecules such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, iron, and fats
    • Immune System proteins: Crucial components of the body's immune system for defending against diseases
    • Acid-base regulator: Contribute to the regulation of acidity and pH.
    • Fluid regulator: Contribute to the maintenance of fluid balance in the body
    • Source of energy: In times of need, they can be broken down to provide energy, however, it's preferable to obtain energy from carbohydrates and fats

    Digestion, Absorption, and Transportation of Protein

    • The digestion of protein begins in the stomach due to the action of pepsin and hydrochloric acid.
    • Further digestion in the small intestine by pancreatic enzymes such as chymotrypsin and trypsin breaks down proteins into smaller peptides
    • Amino acids are absorbed into the blood stream through the small intestines

    Skeletal Muscle Protein Turnover

    • Muscle Protein Synthesis (MPS) occurs in the muscle fibers as they are stimulated by exercise
    • Muscle Protein Breakdown (MPB) is the process where proteins in the muscle are broken down
    • The balance between these two processes determines the net protein balance, impacting muscle growth, maintenance, and adaptation.

    Amino Acids Used for ATP Production

    • Amino acids can contribute to energy production under certain conditions, specifically when carbohydrates are limited

    Protein Metabolism During Endurance Exercise - Glucose-alanine Cycle

    • The glucose-alanine cycle plays a role in replenishing glucose during endurance exercise, involving the transfer of nitrogen

    Nitrogen Balance and Net Protein Balance

    • Nitrogen Balance: The difference between nitrogen intake and nitrogen losses.
    • Net protein balance: The difference between MPS and MPB.
    • Positive nitrogen balance: Occurs during periods of growth, such as pregnancy or hypertrophy
    • Negative nitrogen balance: Occurs when protein breakdown exceeds protein synthesis.

    Muscle Anatomy and Protein Types

    • Sarcoplasmic proteins: Found in the cytoplasm of the muscles
    • Mitochondrial proteins: Found in the mitochondria, involved in energy production
    • Myofibrillar proteins: Primarily involved in muscle contraction

    Combined Effect of Resistance Exercises and Protein

    • Resistance exercise, in combination with adequate protein intake, promotes an increase in muscle protein synthesis.

    Protein Recommendations for Athletes

    • Depending on training volume and intensity, athletes may require higher protein needs than sedentary individuals.

    Protein Dose and the Leucine Trigger

    • Leucine, an essential amino acid plays a significant role in stimulating muscle protein synthesis.
    • There appears to be a leucine threshold needed to trigger muscle protein synthesis, but it's influenced by various factors.

    Compound Resistance Exercise Versus Isolated Exercise

    • Compound exercises (multi-joint exercises) have a greater impact on MPS compared to isolated (single-joint) exercises.

    Protein Intake for Muscle Protein Synthesis and Age

    • Older adults may require a higher protein intake to achieve similar levels of MPS compared to younger adults

    Protein Timing and Distribution

    • The timing and distribution of protein intake affect MPS. Spacing out protein intake throughout the day appears to be more beneficial than consuming large amounts at once.

    Protein Structure

    • Proteins consist of 20 amino acids, each with a unique side chain (R group) that dictates their structure and function.
    • Amino acids are either dispensable (can be synthesized by the body) or indispensable (must be obtained from diet).
    • The terms essential and non-essential were historically used, but are misleading and have been replaced with indispensable and dispensable.
    • Some amino acids can become conditionally indispensable under certain circumstances, such as during extreme stress or endurance events.
    • Amino acids can be either glycogenic or ketogenic, indicating whether they contribute to the energy pathway or the citric acid cycle.
    • The structure of a protein can be classified into four levels: primary (sequence of amino acids), secondary (folding due to hydrogen bonding), tertiary (complex folding due to R group interactions), and quaternary (multiple polypeptide chains bound together).

    Protein Digestion and Absorption

    • Protein digestion begins in the stomach with gastric juice, which denatures protein and activates pepsin.
    • Pepsin is an enzyme that breaks down polypeptides.
    • Digestive enzymes from the pancreas further break down polypeptides into smaller peptides and amino acids.
    • Final digestion and absorption of peptides and amino acids occurs in the small intestine.

    Protein in Sports Nutrition

    • Protein powders can be labeled as predigested, hydrolysed, or slow release, depending on their rate of digestion and absorption.
    • Predigested or hydrolysed protein powders are already broken down into peptides, leading to faster absorption.
    • Slow release protein powders are composed of longer polypeptides, requiring more time to digest and release amino acids.
    • A blend of fast and slow release proteins may be beneficial for different purposes, such as post-workout recovery or sustained amino acid availability.

    Amino Acid Pool

    • The amino acid pool refers to the total amount of free amino acids available in the body at any given time.
    • The pool is approximately 150g and is constantly turning over, with amino acids being obtained from dietary sources, muscle breakdown, and other sources.
    • The amino acid pool is primarily composed of indispensable amino acids.

    Amino Acid Pool

    • The amino acid pool is present in blood, liver, and skeletal muscle
    • Amino acids can be excreted via sweat, kidneys, and feces
    • The bidirectional movement of amino acids between the liver, muscle, and blood is constant

    De-amination of Amino Acids

    • The removal of the amine group from amino acids can be achieved by 3-aminoisobutylate dehydrogenase in the presence of pyridoxal phosphate (PLP)
    • PLP is a form of vitamin B6
    • De-amination results in ammonium which is toxic and must be excreted, and the carbon skeleton alpha-ketobutyrate for energy metabolism

    Skeletal Muscle Protein Turnover

    • Amino acids enter and exit the muscle via blood circulation
    • De novo synthesis occurs within the muscle, creating amino acids that enter the amino acid pool
    • Muscle protein synthesis contributes to muscle growth while breakdown releases amino acids into the pool
    • Muscle protein breakdown can also result in the removal of the amine group from amino acids releasing energy for muscle use
    • Amino acids enter the Krebs cycle at different stages depending on their structure
    • Some amino acids at the top of the pathway can be converted to pyruvate and then back to glucose
    • Other amino acids entering the Krebs cycle lower down are unable to be converted to glucose, due to no bidirectional arrows

    Glucose-Alanine Cycle

    • Muscle glycogen is broken down into glucose, which is then converted to pyruvate
    • Pyruvate can be used by the muscle, converted to lactate, or converted to alanine
    • Alanine travels to the liver via the blood
    • In the liver, alanine is converted back to pyruvate
    • Pyruvate in the liver undergoes gluconeogenesis to create glucose
    • Glucose from the liver returns to the blood, completing the cycle

    Nitrogen Balance

    • Nitrogen balance is the difference between total nitrogen intake from protein and total nitrogen losses, primarily via urine and feces
    • A neutral nitrogen balance occurs when intake equals losses
    • A positive nitrogen balance occurs when intake exceeds losses, leading to muscle growth, such as during bodybuilding, adolescence, or pregnancy
    • A negative nitrogen balance occurs when losses exceed intake, leading to muscle breakdown

    Muscle Protein Synthesis

    • Muscle protein synthesis can be measured in different components of muscle tissue:
      • Sarcoplasmic proteins: Found in between myofibrils and mitochondria
      • Mitochondrial proteins: Important for endurance athletes
      • Myofibrillar proteins: The most commonly studied, responsible for muscle fiber structure
    • Exercise and protein intake cause a positive muscle protein balance

    Protein Recommendations for Athletes

    • Recommendations vary based on activity level and training experience
    • Sedentary males and females require 0.8-1g/kg bodyweight daily
    • Recreational endurance athletes (4-5 times per week, 30 minutes, low intensity) require slightly more, but not dramatically
    • More intense endurance athletes (4-5 times per week, 45-60 minutes) require significantly more protein
    • Elite endurance athletes require almost double the protein intake of sedentary individuals
    • Resistance athletes new to training require higher protein intake than experienced athletes
    • Football and power athletes have high protein requirements similar to resistance athletes new to training
    • These recommendations are general guidelines and may be nuanced based on individual factors

    Protein Considerations

    • Amount of Protein per Day: Daily intake should be aligned with training volume and experience levels. Research suggests a range of 20-40g of protein may be optimal for muscle protein synthesis.
    • Amount of Protein per Meal: Aim for 20g of protein per meal for optimal muscle protein synthesis.
    • Distribution of Protein: Consume protein frequently throughout the day, spaced every 2-3 hours, for better absorption and utilization.
    • Type of Protein: Opt for high-quality protein sources, like egg albumin, that deliver adequate amounts of leucine.
    • Exercise Influence: The type and intensity of exercise affect protein requirements. A split routine targeting smaller muscle groups may require less protein than whole-body training.
    • Age: Age is a factor in protein needs. Elderly individuals may require higher protein intake (0.4g/kg) compared to younger adults (0.2-0.3g/kg) for optimal muscle protein synthesis.
    • Energy Balance: Ensure protein intake is balanced with overall energy needs, especially when aiming for weight loss or maintaining body composition.

    Carbohydrate Considerations

    • Carbohydrate Availability is Crucial: Adequate carbohydrate intake is essential for performance, particularly during events lasting over 2 hours.
    • Impact of Low-Carb Diets: While low-carb diets can shift fuel utilization towards fat oxidation, they can negatively impact performance and muscle glycogen stores, leading to reduced speed and endurance.
    • Strategies for Shifting Fuel Utilization:
      • Training Fasted: Skipping meals before training can promote fat oxidation but requires adaptation and should be closely monitored.
      • Delayed Carbohydrate Rescue: Limiting carbohydrate intake after training can also enhance fat adaptation.
      • Twice-a-Day Training (one session with no carbs): Strategic carbohydrate restriction during training sessions can improve fat oxidation.
    • Glycogen Threshold Hypothesis:
      • To maximize the metabolic benefits of low-carb strategies, aim for low muscle glycogen levels at the end of training sessions.

    Gut Training

    • Familiarization is Key: Athletes need to train their gut to tolerate and digest specific foods and carbohydrate amounts, particularly before high-demand events.
    • Benefits of Gut Training: This practice reduces the risk of gastrointestinal issues like upset stomach, vomiting, and cramping during competition.

    Carbohydrate Training and Gut Adaptation

    • Training with carbohydrates can improve performance and reduce Gastrointestinal (GI) distress.
    • A study showed that runners who trained with 90 grams of carbohydrates for two weeks improved their running distance compared to those who received a placebo.
    • Breath hydrogen is a biomarker of malabsorption and GI distress.
    • Training with carbohydrates can lead to reduced breath hydrogen, indicating improved absorption.

    Carbohydrate Recommendations for Athletes

    • Daily Carbohydrate Intake:
      • Low Intensity Exercise (>1 hour): 5-7 grams per kilogram of body weight per day
      • High Intensity Exercise (Moderate Duration): 6-10 grams per kilogram of body weight per day
      • Very High Intensity Exercise (Short Duration): 5-7 grams per kilogram of body weight per day
    • Pre-Event/Race Carbohydrate Loading:
      • < 90 minutes: 10 grams per kilogram of body weight per day for 24 hours before event
      • > 90 minutes: 10-12 grams per kilogram of body weight per day for 48 hours before event
    • Carb Loading Recommendations for Multiple Events within a Day:
      • < 8 hours between events: Maximize muscle glycogen stores post-event.
      • Focus on 1 gram of carbohydrate per kilogram of body weight within the first hour after each event.

    Carbohydrate Intake During Exercise

    • < 45 minutes: Generally no carbohydrates are needed.
    • 45-60 minutes: 0-30 grams per hour.
    • Mouth rinsing with carbohydrates can enhance performance without having to ingest them.
    • For ultra-endurance activities (multi-hour, multi-day events), 9 grams per hour is generally recommended.
    • Research suggests that some athletes can tolerate up to 120 grams per hour, but this depends on their training with carbohydrates and gut adaptation.

    Post-Training/Race Carbohydrate Recommendations

    • First hour: 1 gram of carbohydrate per kilogram of body weight to optimize muscle glycogen stores
    • General: 6-12 grams per kilogram of body weight per day, depending on training level.

    Considerations for Customized Carbohydrate Recommendations

    • Training Goals: Training volume, intensity, and purpose influence carbohydrate requirements.
    • Individual Needs: Athlete responses vary depending on factors like training level, body weight, and individual tolerance.
    • Collaboration: Working with a dietitian, coach, or other healthcare professionals is essential for tailoring carbohydrate recommendations.

    Carbohydrate Periodization

    • Carbohydrate intake should be matched to training load.
    • Athletes on rest days do not need 12g of carbohydrates per day.
    • High carbohydrate intake is important for high volume, intensity, and duration training days.
    • Gut training can improve the absorption of carbohydrates.
    • Low carbohydrate intake can optimize fat oxidation, allowing fat to be used as an energy source instead of carbohydrates.

    Examples of Carbohydrate Intake

    • Easy Training: Emphasis on fruits, vegetables, and less on grains.
    • Moderate Training: Higher intake of whole grains, with a reduction in vegetable intake.
    • Hard Training: Increased carbohydrates intake, primarily from grains, with a further reduction in the ratio of vegetables.

    The Role of Carbohydrates for Athletes

    • Mixed Martial Arts Athletes: Carbohydrates are crucial for intense training phases but can be reduced during rest or skill training.
    • Iron Man Athletes: Carbohydrates intake should be tailored to the intensity and duration of training sessions.

    Tour de France Nutritional Strategies

    • Team Sky's nutritional program starts six months before the Tour de France.
    • The goal of Team Sky's nutritional program is to fuel and recover from training, promote training adaptations, and optimize body composition.
    • Protein intake is consistent for all riders at 2-2.5g per kg of body mass.
    • Carbohydrate intake is adjusted based on training intensity and duration, using a traffic light system of "green," "amber," and "red" meals to categorize carbohydrate content.
    • The week before the Tour de France, carbohydrate intake is adjusted based on training volume.
    • Fueling on the bike and recovery meals are tailored to the intensity and duration of each stage.
    • Calorie intake can vary between 13,000 calories per day, depending on the stage.
