in an experiment, which did the best,
diets consisting of only carbs, only protein, and a mixture of both
in classic glycogen loading, what is day 1
Day 1: exhaustive exercise
in classic glycogen loading, what is day 2 and 3
carb free diet
in classic glycogen loading, what is day 4,5 and 6
glycogen loading
in classic glycogen loading, what is day 7
the day of testing with exercise
modified glycogen test
only 3 days of glycogen loading and no exhaustive exercise or carb free days
people who exercise daily should get what percent of their diet from carbs
60-65%
for glycogen resynthesis, a person should..
eat foods high on the glycemic index (aka high sugars) best for results
–eat within 30 minutes of end of workout
glycogen synthasis peaks when
immediately after exercise
how many carbs should a person eat after exercise for ideal glycogen synthasis
30-40 grams
glycemic index
a measure of how quickly blood sugar levels (i.e. levels of glucose in the blood) rise after eating a particular type of food.
high on the list of glycemic index is
i. High on list: foods high in refined sugars
a. Sucrose
b. Glucose
c. White bread
d. Rice
e. potatoes
medium on the list of glycemic index is
ii. Medium of list: foods high in fibers
a. Fruits/fruit juices
b. Vegetables
c. Whole grains
low on the list of glycemic index is what
iii. Low on list: legumes
a. Milk
b. Fructose
a person with 400 grams glycogen has what in the muscle and what in the liver
a. 350gms are in the muscle, and 50gms are in the liver
what is RDA
recommended dietary allowances
for normal person protein RDA is
.8 gram per kilogram a day
for strength and power athletes, what is protein RDA
iv. Strength/power athletes: 1-2gms/kg protein
for endurance athletes what is protein RDA
1-1.5 grams per kilogram a day
whey. protein to carb ratio
vi. Whey and CHO = 1:4 ratio
a. Do in order to maximize protein anabolism post-workout
b. Carbs stimulate insulin, which helps protein be taken up by cells
c. Whey is found in milk
eating prior to exercise, negative effect?
i. A study comparing eating a solid meal versus eating a liquid meal (ex: Ensure) found that they were not any signs of GI tract disturbance with exercise
anabolic drugs
promote the growth of tissue, muscle
anabolic steroids, beta 2 agonists, HGH,
most abused drugs because of extra muscle benefit, mimic testosterone,
they decrease catabolic reactions (endurance athletes benefit by preventing from tissue breaking down from long term exercise, it increase red blood cells), has side effects (liver toxicity, abnormal effects in the heart, caused by when , how long, and multiple ones called stacking) not everyone is prone to these side effects,
anabolic steroids
mimic testosterone, most potent anabolics available.
potential damage to liver and heart
androgenic, male characteristics in women
beta 2 agonists
clenbuterol
decrease fat and potentially increase ffm muscle
stimulates epinephrine
used for treatment of obstructive pulmonary disorders, bronchia passageways close down, this drug dilates them
o High dosages of oral drugs have anabolic drugs, Clenbuterol is a potent lypolytic drug, used as a cutting agent, popular with bodybuilders, caused fat to decrease and tones it, taken in high amounts in animal industry to increase fat free mass, illegal in the U.S. except with veterinarians, if you were tested for clenbuterol and prove you never took the drug you would still be guilty if its in there its in there, not potent anabolic agent, its inexpensive, popular because its oral and cheap and easily sold online, side effects are high blood pressure muscle tremors and high heart rate, if someone has a specific problem they can make a petition to take the drug they need aka Asthma, Wada’s petitions: people can consume a drug orally or injected and they wont be able to detect it so it’s a way to get around the WADA system.
