Chapter 4Exercise Metabolism EXERCISE PHYSIOLOGY Theory and Application to Fitness and Performance, 6th edition Scott K. Powers Edward T. Howley Objectives Discuss the relationship between exercise intensity/duration and the bioenergetic pathways Define the term oxygen deficit Define the term lactate threshold Discuss several possible mechanisms for the sudden rise in blood-lactate during incremental exercise List the factors that regulate fuel selection during different types of exercise Objectives Explain why fat metabolism is dependent on carbohydrate metabolism Define the term oxygen debt Give the physiological explanation for the observation that the O2 dept is greater following intense exercise when compared to the O2 debt following light exercise Rest-to-Exercise Transitions Oxygen uptake increases rapidly Reaches steady state within 1-4 minutes Oxygen deficit Lag in oxygen uptake at the beginning of exercise Suggests anaerobic pathways contribute to total ATP production After steady state is reached, ATP requirement is met through aerobic ATP production The Oxygen Deficit Differences in VO2 Between Trained Untrained Subjects Recovery From Exercise Metabolic Responses Oxygen debt or Excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) Elevated VO2 for several minutes immediately following exercise “Fast” portion of O2 debt Resynthesis of stored PC Replacing muscle and blood O2 stores “Slow” portion of O2 debt Elevated heart rate and breathing, ? energy need Elevated body temperature, ? metabolic rate Elevated epinephrine norepinephrine, ? metabolic rate Conversion of lactic acid to glucose (gluconeogenesis) Oxygen Deficit and Debt During Light-Moderate and Heavy Exercise Removal of Lactic Acid Following Exercise Metabolic Response to Exercise Short-Term Intense Exercise High-intensity, short-term exercise (2-20 seconds) ATP production through ATP-PC system Intense exercise longer than 20 seconds ATP production via anaerobic glycolysis High-intensity exerc
