47
what happens when the concentration of glycogen decreases

48
what is the most potent stimulator of glycogen synthase

49
what does intense exercise burn
muscle and liver glycogen
50
what does exercise do
Glut 4 translocation
| Glut 4 transcription-translation (more transporters)
51
what happens post exercise
stimulates glycogen synthesis (free glycogen synthase)
| increases insulin sensitivity
52
what type of fiber is responsible for more hypertrophy
TYPE II
53
what happens after intense exercise
glycogen synthesis has an initial high rate
maximal activity during the first 30 min
rapid decline to about 1/5 by 60 min
reduced by 1/9 by 120min
54
what are two reasons for the decline after intense exercise
increased glucose uptake (gluts 4)
| increased glycogen enzyme activity (glycogen synthase)
55
the rapid phase is what
insulin independent
occurs when glycogen levels are relatively low and carbs are provided quick after exercise
30-60 min
56
the slow phase what happens
several hours later
insulin dependent
much slower rate of glycogen synthesis
must had carbs and insulin availible
57
where is glycogen primarily stored
liver and skeletal muscle
58
what happens to glycogen synthase after high glycemic carbs are consumed after exercise
the resaultant hyperinsulinemia leads to only a slight increase of glycogen synthase
59
by adding carbs it will increase insulin but what will it not have an effect on
no additive effect on glycogen synthase
60
what happens two hours post exercise to the number of glucose transporters associated with the sarcolemma
it returns to the pre exercise concentration
61
what may be 45% lower when carb ingestion post exercise is delayed by 2 hours compared with immediate consumption post exercsise
muscle glycogen synthesis rates lower
62
what does consuming carbs after exercise increase
increase glycogen synthesis
63
what does it meant when you do not consume carbs after exercise but are still able to build glycogen
you are catabolizing amino acids to make glycogen
64
T/F
CHO supplements provided at 2 hour interval may not adequately increase and maintain blood glucose and insulin levels for 2 hours
true
65
by ingestion of carbs and proteins after exercise what happens in comparison to just ingesting carbs alone
it leads to a higher muscle glycogen synthesis rate
66
when intaking a high amount of carbs and some proteins what will happen
it will not lead to a higher glycogen synthesis in comparison with just intaking small amounts of both carbs and proteins together

69
what is the better teh quality of the carb or the quantity of the carb in GI?
the quality is better
70
the higher the glycemic load the greater the expected elevation in blood glucose and in the insulinogenic effect of food

71
what is glycemic load
the glycemic index times the grams of carbs in a serving of the food
72
what is long term consumption of a diet with a relative high glycemic load associated with
associated with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease
73
the longer and higher the elevation of blood glucose the greater the risk for what
developing chronic disease and obesity
74
what are high GI meals more effective at replenishing muscle glycogen stores during what phase of recovery
the second phase
| allows a faster not better repletion
75
what does low insulin during exercise allow
allows a increased in FFA concentration
76
blood glucose levels tend to be higher in the later phase of prolonged exercise when subjects are fed what
low GI compared with high GI pre exercise meals
77
what happens to insulin regardless of what you consume before you exercise
insulin levels decrease and reach the same values regardless of the GI of the pre exercise meal
78
glucose and glucose/fructose solutions ingested at a rate of 90g/h are equally effective at what
restoring muscle glycogen in exercise muscles during the recovery from exhaustive exercise
79
why is fructose thought to mediate this effectof very low doses of fructose are added to a glucose containing meal glucose tolerance is improved
activating glucokinase
80
low dose fructose infusion cause a 3 fold increase in net hepatic glycogen synthesis exclusively through
stimulation of glycogen synthase flux

85
what do low doses of fructose cause a 3 fold increase in
liver glycogen synthesis
86

glucokinase
88
when F1P binds to a regulatory protein what is set free and activated
glucokinase
89
what is the main endogenous source of glucose
the liver is the fasted state
90
following glucose consumption what consumes it
