Subcellular Skeletal Muscle Structure |

Definition
skeletal muscle cells are long, striated, multinucleated fibers commonly called myofibers. Myofibrils of the myofibers are the contractile elements, composed of sarcomeres containing thick and thin filaments arranged in a regular array. Heads of the myosin molecules form cross bridges that bind reversibly to the actin filaments, causing the filaments to slide over each other toward the center of sarcomeres |

PCr in Anaerobic Metabolism |
|
Definition
PCr is present in the sarcoplasm of muscle at about three times the concentration of ATP
PCr hydrolysis is initiated at the onset of muscular contraction to buffer the rapid accumulation of ADP resulting from ATP hydrolysis
The rate of PCr hydrolysis begins to decline after only a few seconds of maximal force generation
Importance of PCr to muscle energy production and function lies in the extremely rapid rate at which it can resynthesize ATP |

Term
|
Definition
CHO is the major fuel for muscle activity in high intensity exercise, when muscle glycogen stores are depleted, only low-intensity exercise is possible
The time that a fixed exercise intensity can be sustained is related to the size of the pre-exercise glycogen store. The size of the store depends on the pattern of exercise and diet in the previous hours and days |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The principal storage form of fat in the body is triglyceride, most of which is located in adipose tissue
Triglyceride stores are also found in liver and muscle and as lipoproteins in blood
Muscles cannot oxidize triglycerides directly, must first be broken down into its fatty acid and glycerol components by lipolysis
This process is activated during exercise by the actions of epinephrine, glucagon, an cortisol. The principal sources of fat fuels for exercise are blood-borne FA's derived from adipose tissue and intramuscular triglyceride |

Term
|
Definition
Stimulation of anaerobic and oxidative ATP resynthesis- Decline in cellular concentration of ATP, Increase in ADP/AMP
ATP/ADP/AMP activators or inhibitors in: PCr, CHO, and fat degradation and utilization |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
During exercise the interaction of among insulin, glucagon, and catecholamines is mostly responsible for fuel availability and utilization
Cortisol and GH also have some significant effects |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Inhibits lipolysis
Increase glucose uptake by the liver, muscle, adipose tissue
Primary stimulus for increase insulin is the rise of the blood glucose concentration after eating a meal
Usually depressed during exercise |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Causes effect opposite to insulin
Raises blood glucose level by increasing the rate of glycogenolysis (glycogen breakdown in liver)
Promotes gluconeogenesis (formation of glucose from non CHO precursors)
Primary stimulus for increase glucagon is a decrease of the blood glucose concentration in the blood |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Stimulation of heart rate, constriction/dilation of blood vessels
Effects of epinephrine more important that norepinephrine
Promote lipolysis in adipose tissue, inhibits insulin secretion
Primary stimulus by stressors such as exercise, hypotension, hypoglycemia |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
GH stimulates lipolysis
Cortisol stimulates lipolysis but its main effect is to promote protein degradation and AA release from muscle
Interleukin-6 stimulates lipolysis but also has some anti-inflammatory effects |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
When muscle and liver glycogen stores have become depleted glucagon and epinephrine activate lipolysis
Brief to light activity energy derived equally CHO and fat
Exercise Greater 1-2 hours and CHO depleted quantity of fat used increases
Arises from small fall in blood glucose, increase in glucagon, decrease in insulin, epinephrine and cortisol also increase as exercise progresses |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Several factors influence the type of substrate used to fuel muscular work: substrate avaliability, diet, intensity and duration of exercise, training status, hormones, previous exercies, and environmental conditions
Fat oxidation makes an increasing contribution as duration increases |
|
|
Term
Metabolic responses to Exercise |
|
Definition
Most important factor influencing metabolic response is exercise intensity
Physical fitness of the subject
Exercise duration, substrate availability, nutritional status, diet, feeding during exercise, mode of exercise |
|
|
Term
Fatigue in High Intensity Exercise |
|
Definition
ATP fuels 2 seconds of max intensity
The rate of resynthesis muust match that of expenditure to maintain force
The rate of PCr hydolysis declines with time of maximal force generation
If high intensity exercise is to continue beyond a few seconds, there must be an increase in glycolysis
Still extremely rapid, involves several more steps |
|
|
Term
Factors affecting fatigue in high intensity |
|
Definition
Gradual decline in anaerobic ATP production Increase in ADP caused by depletion of PCr and fall in glycolysis Exercise lasting 1-5 minutes lactic acid and H ion accumulation may contribute Accumulation of Pi=inhibits muscle contraction coupling directly Ca transport slows, reduction of reuptake Excitation coupling failure Possibly at reduced nervous drive caused by reflex inhibition at the spinal level |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Prolonged exercise is when an exercise intensity can be sustained for 30 minutes to 3 hours
Rates of PCr degradation and lactate production during the first minutes are closely related to the intensity of the exercise
After a steady state has been reached, CHO and fat oxidation becomes principal means of ATP resynhesis
Muscle glycogen is principal fuel for first 30 minutes of exercise at 60-80% Vo2max |
|
|
Term
Fat oxidation during prolonged exercise |
|
Definition
During early stages of exercise fat oxidation is limited by the delay in the mobilization of FA from adipose tissue
Observed to fall during the first hour of moderate intensity exercsie followed by a progressive increase due to lipolysis starting as catecholamines |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
At marathon running pace, muscle CHO stores alone can fuel about 80 minutes of exercise
Fat oxidation ATP resynthesis alone cannot meet ATP requirement for exercise higher than 50-60% VO2max |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Muscle glycogen depletion, inability of muscle to maintain ATP synthesis, ADP and Pi accumulation
Exercise after a period of fasting or a diet low in CHO resultes in hypoglycemia, may be direct cause of fatigue
Afferent chemoreceptors possibly feeds back to the motor cortex inducing central fatigue causing athlete to decrease intensity
Higher initial levels of muscle/liver glycogen leveles cause a small level of hormons to stimulate lipolysis, also see smaller rises in CHO ingestion during exercise=fat mobilization is delayed, rate of fat oxidation is less |
|
|
Term
Metabolic Adaptations to Training |
|
Definition
Increase in cap. density, mito size and number TCA cycle and oxidative enzymes increase Capacity to oxidize fat and CHO increases Affect substrate utilization Increases cross-sectional area of type I fibers Increase capactiy to use fat during submaximal exercise Increased cardiac output, VO2 max Improved O2 delivery to working muscles Lower hormonal responses to exercise Decrease rate of muscle glycogen, blood glucose utilization and lactate accumulation during submaximal exercise Increased mitochondrial oxidative capacity there is less disturbance to ATP homeostasis |
|
|
Term
Fuel Source/Metabolism Conclusion |
|
Definition
Training strength, power, speed has little if any effect on aerobic capacity
Heavy resistance training or sprinting brings about changes to (ATP and PCr) and glycolytic systems
Heavy resistance training causes hypertrophy, thus increasing total muscle mass and possibly maximum power
Stretch, contraction, and damage to muscle fibers during exercise provide stimuli for adaptation |
