Q

What process ensures that glucose is trapped in the cell

A

Adding a phosphate to the glucose molecule

21
Q

Overall glycolysis rxn:

A

Glucose + 2NAD + 2ADP + 2P → Pyruvate (3C) + 2H + 2ATP + 2H20

22
Q

In anaerobic pathway pyruvate converts to

23
Q

In Aerobic pathway pyruvate attaches to ———and loses a carbon atom as Co2

24
Q

When pyruvate attaches to Coenzyme A it yields

25
In aerobic pathway what molecule enters the TCA cycle
Acetyl coA
26
What is fatigue ?
Inability of muscle to maintain require rate of work
27
When is max speed in elite sprinters
At 3-4 sec , 30-40 meters
28
When does max lactate occur in muscles
At the end of exercise around 3-7 min
29
Cause of fatigue
Increased lactate ---> decrease PH, Low pH----> fatigue
30
Key recovery components
1. Restoration of muscle PCr 2. Restoration of muscle ATP 3. Removal of Lactate 4. Restoration of normal pH (~7.0)
31
When does restoration of PCr and ATP occur after exercise
Within a few minutes ( 5-10)
32
What does have exponential rate of recovery
PCr
33
How is the exponential rate of PCr recovery
50% complete in first 30-60 sec
34
What happens to lactate after exercise
Some lactate goes to liver --->converted to glucose Some lactate goes to active tissue ---> converted to pyruvate (via lactate dehydrogenase ) and used as fuel via oxidative pathway
35
What happens in hydrogen ions after exercise
In blood react with carbonate ions and form CO2 and H2O
36
How long does lactate removal and pH storatio to normal take
1 hr
37
Lactate recovery is faster if
Walking or slow running
38
What is the slowest aspect of recovery after exercise ?
Replacement of muscle glycogen
39
How do muscles replace glycogen
Some from liver Most from diet Some from blood ?
40
Nutrition effect of the mid-distance athlete Glycogen must be
Maxed for optimal performance
41
Nutrition effect of the mid-distance athlete CHO intake ?
Requires adequate dietary CHO intake during training phases and pre-competition
42
Oxidation of which one yields more energy ? CHO vs fat
CHO per unit of O2
43
Why does increasing buffer capacity help?
Acidosis reduces performance
44
How to increase buffer capacity
Pre-performance ingestion of alkaline salts 1. Bicarbonate 2. Baking soda 3. Beta alanine
45
When do you have to take banking soda ?
1-2 hrs pre event
46
Doses of baking soda
0.1< x < 0.3 g/kg of body weight | With 1 L of H20 , 1-2 hrs pre event
47
Beta alanine increases
Muscular carnosine content
48
6.4 g beta-alanine in eight divided doses
Increase muscular carnosine by 60% after 4 weeks and 80% after 10 weeks
