Study Notes
Homeostasis
- Homeostasis refers to the maintenance of a stable internal environment.
- Exercise disrupts homeostasis, necessitating rapid adjustments in energy systems to replenish ATP stores.
- Disrupted homeostasis triggers a negative feedback loop, prompting the body to respond; failure to respond may result in long-term damage.
Homeostasis in Skeletal Muscle
- Skeletal muscle cells possess an internal environment containing contractile proteins, organelles, and energy sources.
- During muscle contraction, ATP demand increases drastically, potentially up to 100 times.
- Imbalance between energy supply and demand leads to a state of metabolic stress characterized by the build-up of metabolic by-products.
- Mechanical stress arises from tension and stretch during heavy lifting, while exercise itself is a form of physiological stress.
- Cells have receptors that detect changes and initiate responses to restore homeostasis, such as the conversion of ATP to ADP + Pi and energy.
- Exercise triggers increases in AMP and ADP concentrations, impacting cellular energy status.
AMP-Activated Protein Kinase (AMPK)
- AMPK is an enzyme sensitive to shifts in cellular AMP concentrations and rises in the AMP:ATP ratio.
- When activated, AMPK stimulates pathways that generate energy and inhibits pathways that consume it.
- It promotes the expression of genes that enhance mitochondrial numbers, improving aerobic ATP production and future resilience to disturbances.
Hormesis
- Hormesis is the concept that low doses of stressors foster adaptations that enhance an organism's capability to endure similar or future stresses.
- Physiological stress from exercise is not lethal, allowing muscle cells to adapt and fortify themselves against future stressors.
FITT Principle and Homeostasis
- Engagement in exercise under a specific FITT (Frequency, Intensity, Time, Type) regimen disrupts homeostasis.
- Continuous physiological stress prompts the body to adapt, improving response capabilities over time.
- Mechanical stress from resistance training is identified by receptors in the muscle fibre membrane (sarcolemma), stimulating production of contractile proteins like actin and myosin.
- This process results in muscle hypertrophy and strengthened muscle fibres, enhancing future mechanical stress endurance.
- Proper manipulation of FITT variables is essential for effective exercise training programs aimed at physiological adaptation, yielding health, functional, and athletic performance benefits.
