Exercise

Muscle activity requires energy. During exercise are energy demands enhanced.

- decrease of ATP, increase of ADP

=> causes the changes in human body

A) Acute response to one bout of exercise – e.g. ↑ heart rate (HR), ↑ body temperature (HR)B) Chronic adaptation to repeated bouts of exercise

- e.g. ↓ HR at rest and ↓ HR at exercise (same intensity)

Muscle contractile work = transforming chemical energy into kinetic (mechanical) energy

Energy metabolism

ATP

B) Catabolism – release of energy (glycolysis, lipolysis)

A) Anabolism- creation of reserve (carbohydrate, fat, proteins)

hydrolisisADP + P + E

ATP – adenosine thriphosphate- common energy “currency”

ADP – adenosine diphosphateP - phosphateE - energy (e.g. for muscle contraction)

Energy metabolism Anaerobic metabolism

- only carbohydrate- increases when lack of O2

- lower amount of ATP, but very fast and huge in short time- production of lactic acid

Anaerobic metabolism- carbohydrate, fats, proteins- enough of O2

- higher amount of ATP, but slower

Note: proteins are not very important sources of energy (5-10%). Amino acids are preferabely used as a building matters for muscles hormones, etc.

Total energy expenditure

Dominant way of restoration of ATP is oxidative phosphorylation

Acute reaction of the body (neurohumoral controlled) for increase in supply of working muscles by energy sources and O2

- increase glucose in blood (from liver glycogen)- activation of FFA (activation of hormone sensitive lipase)

Carbohydrates- less energy (1 g = 4,1 kcal)- need less O2 (EE = 5,05 kcal)- use while not enough of O2 (higher intensity, and anaerobically as well)- small amount is always use at rest

The more O2 is delivered to working muscle, the higher aerobic production of energy (ATP)

Better endurance performance, smaller production of lactic acid while the same speed of run, longer lasting exercise, etc.

Fick equation:

VO2 = Q × a-vO2

VO2 – oxygen consumption [ml/min]

Q – cardiac output [ml/min]

a-vO2 – arteriovenous oxygen difference

SV HR

SV – stroke volume [ml]

HR – heart rate [beet/min]

×

a-vO2 – arteriovenous oxygen difference

DA-V – arteriovenous oxygen difference

- difference in the oxygen content of arterial and mixed venous blood- the value tells about the amount of oxygen used by working muscles- depends on the muscle ability to absorb and use the O2 from blood (perfusion, amount of capillary, mitochondrion, number of working muscles, etc.)

(100 ml krve is saturated by 20 ml O2)

- at rest 50 ml O2 from 1 L of blood

- during exercise 150-170 ml O2 1 L of blood

(1 L of blood is saturated by 200 ml O2)

1 L of blood is saturated by 200 ml O2

To ensure during exercise:↑BF (breathing frequency, rate) - from 12-16 breath/min up 60 (70 and more)↑TV (tidal volume)- from 0.5 L up 3 L

Minute ventilation (VE) = BF × TV - at rest 6 L/min = 12 × 0.5- during maximalexercise 180 L/min = 60 × 3

Max. exercise:

VO2max - is maximum volume of oxygen that by the body can consume during intense (maximum), whole body exercise.

- expressed:- in L/min- in ml/kg/min- METs

1 MET - resting O2 consumption (3.5 ml/kg/min)

10 METs = 35 ml/kg/min

Definition and explanation of VO2max

20 METs = 70 ml/kg/min

Higher intensity of exercise

Higher energy demands (ATP)

Increase in oxygen consumption

Lower VO2max = less energy = worse achievement

Importance of VO2max

Importance of VO2max

The more is O2 supplied to working muscles, the more higher is an amount of aerobically

produced energy.It means higher speed of running, latest

manifestation of fatigue, etc.

During endurance activity is being ATP resynthesized mainly aerobically from lipids

and carbohydrates.

It shows the capacity for aerobic energy transfer.

Average values of VO2max

Average (20/30 years) not trained: - female 35 ml/kg/min- male 45 ml/kg/min

Trained: to 85 ml/kg/min (cross-country skiing)

Decreases with age. Lower in female.

On increase of VO2max participate:

1) Increase of DA-Vmax – shares on increase about 20%

2) Increase of Qmax – shares aboout 70 - 85%

VO2max = Qmax × DA-Vmax

Influence of the gender, health condition, age

Heredity – the increase of VO2max by training only to max. 25%

Gender – in female lower muscle mass, lover hemoglobin

Age – decrease of active body mass, activity of enzymes…

Exercise intensity during endurance activity (>30 minutes) can not be above AnT.

1) Before start of exercise- increase in O2 consumption (emotions, reflexions)

2) Initial phase of exercise (till 5 minutes)

- rapid increase of the oxygen consumption

3) Steady state- balance between the energy required by working muscles and the rate of ATP produced by aerobic metabolism- O2 is almost constant- lactate level is constant - HR is in the range ±4 beats (right steady state)

O2 deficit

• Oxygen deficit

- Insufficient supply of working muscles with O2, at the beginning of exercise (slower ↑ SF and SV, BF and TV).

- disbalance between O2 demands and supply leads to use of anaerobic metabolism – production of LACTATE ( ↑ H+ – metabolic acidosis – death point).

- when O2 demands ensured – second breath

- after termination of exercise the increased O2 consumption persists = oxygen debt

O2 debt

Oxygen debt- synthesis of ATP and CP- resynthesis of lactate (back to glycogen in the liver, and oxidation by muscles and myocardium)

- acceleration of release of lactate from muscles and better blood perfusion of muscles resynthesising lactate, is possible by low intensive exercise: (till 50 % VO2max – below AT)- recovery of myoglobin, hemoglobin, hormone, etc.- the major part (till 30 min), mild oxygen debt can persist 12-24 hours.
