Regulation of metabolism
More Detailed Comments
Energy production
Aerobic and anaerobic both provide ATP but
which system predominates depends on oxygen
supply to the tissues
Energy production
ATP
Energy currency of the cell
ATP to ADP plus Pi
-done by ATPase
Creatine phosphate is split to creatine and
phosphate
-this provides the energy to
resynthesise ATP via creatine
kinase
Energy production
ATP
limited amount of creatine phosphate in the
body so this is a very limited way to replace
ATP- creatine phosphate process is anaerobic
if all-out exercise -this process can only go
on for 5-8 seconds- eg power lifting
Energy production
Anaerobic pathway
No oxygen
Glycolysis is the quickest way to make ATP
Lactic acid is endproduct (enzyme
implications)
Two hydrogens transferred to pyruvate
thus making lactate- This results in
the freeing of NAD to participate
further in making ATP-but relatively
small amount of ATP synthesis
Energy production
Anaerobic pathway
Lactic acid is rapidly removed from the muscle
and transported in the blood and is eventually
converted to energy in the muscle, liver or
brain OR it is converted to glycogen
Conversion to glycogen occurs largely in the
liver and to some extent in the muscle
Lactic acid buildup in the blood leads to drop
in pH resulting in enzymatic activity drops
which in turn results in fatigue
Energy production
Anaerobic pathway
Oxygen debt-recovery oxygen consumptionthe difference between oxygen consumption in
the post-exercise recovery phase and the
oxygen consumption at rest
Fuel source is limited to glucose and produces
a relatively small amount of ATP relative to
aerobic metabolism
All out effort for 60-120 seconds
Energy production
Aerobic pathway
If going for continued muscle activity of more
than 90-120 seconds one needs oxygen
Energy is stored in high-energy phosphate
bonds in ATP through a complex series of
enzymatically guided reactions involving
separation of hydrogen atoms from the parent
compounds
Energy production
Aerobic pathway
Vital to this process is the presence of
coenzymes which act as hydrogen acceptors
until the process of oxidative phosphorylation
results in the formation of ATP
Ultimately hydrogen combines with O2 to
form water and the coenzymes are freed to
accept more hydrogen so as to continue the
process
Energy production
Aerobic pathway
Glucose is broken down much more
efficiently than is the case with
anaerobic glycolysis
In the presence of oxygen, pyruvate is
converted to Acetyl CoA
Acetyl CoA enters the mitochondria and is
then introduced into the Kreb’s cycle
Energy production
Aerobic pathway
Proteins and lipids can also be metabolized to
produce ATP
Lipids- the beta oxidation of lipids produces a
large amount of ATP
Proteins can be catabolised to Acetyl CoA or
to Kreb’s cycle intermediates and in this way
produce ATP
Break
Energy production
Energy continuum
All pathways can produce ATP
At the beginning of any exercise whatsoever
anaerobic metabolism is in place to produce
ATP
If the person continues to exercise at a
moderate level for a prolonged period then
the aerobic pathway will become the
predominant pathway for energy production
(eg marathon run)
Energy production
Energy continuum
If the person continues to exercise for a short
period of high power and high intensity then
the anaerobic pathway will become the
predominant pathway for ATP energy
production(eg 100 metre sprint)
Production of ATP is therefore a continuum
that depends on the:
-availability of oxygen
-the capacity for intensity of the exercise
-the capacity for the duration of the exercise
Energy production
Energy continuum
There is an inverse relation between the
capacity for intensity and the capacity for the
duration of the exercise
-one cannot perform high intensity
exercise over a long period of time
-the duration increases as the intensity
drops and as the intensity of the
exercise increases the duration of
that exercise drops
Energy production
Energy continuum
-the aerobic pathway cannot tolerate the
same level of intensity as the duration
increases due to the decreased
availability of oxygen and the production
of lactic acid
Energy production
Energy continuum
-as the intensity increases the power output
decreases
POWER = WORK/TIME
WORK = FORCE X DISTANCE
-as the intensity decreases the power output
increases
POWER = WORK/TIME
WORK = FORCE X DISTANCE
Energy production
Sources of fuel
as the duration increases more energy is
obtained from fat (fatty acids) and as the
duration decreases and the intensity increases
more energy is obtained from carbohydrate
carbohydrate is obtained from dietary
carbohydrate, glycogen or amino acids (amino
acids can be synthesized to glucose-this
process is known as gluconeogenesis)
Energy production
Sources of fuel
Kreb’s cycle-alanine is the main amino acid
contributing to the Krebs
cycle
-3 carbon units of glucose
contributing to the Krebs
cycle
-2 unit carbons of fatty acids
contributing to the Kreb’s cycle
Energy production
Sources of fuel
Kreb’s cycle
-all of these substrates are used most of
the time however the intensity and
duration of the exercise dictates the
relative rates of substrate utilisation
Energy production
Substrate choice
Intensity- high intensity must rely on
carbohydrate
Because oxygen is not available for
high intensity exercise glycogen
must be utilized
Glycogen catabolism is much
higher than with aerobic activity18-19 times faster (2 ATP versus
36-38 ATP)
-Energy production
Substrate choice
Intensity-Hockey, basketball for eg favour
higher glycogen utilization rates
than marathon running while
moderate intensity exercise favours
50/50 split of (glycogen)/(glucoselipid) use
-Energy production
Substrate choice
Low intensity exercise like walking is entirely
aerobic and most of the ATP comes from lipid
Fat yields 4.65 kcal / L of oxygen consumed
vs for carbohydrate a yield of 5.01 kcal/L of
oxygen consumed
-thus in longer term exercise
carbohydrate use is favoured
Once the glycogen stores are depleted then
that is the end of the high intensity exercise
Energy production
Substrate choice
Duration-the longer the event the greater the
proportion of lipid used to produce
ATP
-consequently the lower the amount
of lactate produced
Effect of training-increase number of
mitochondria and activity of ATP
producing enzymes
Energy production
Substrate choice
Diet-dictated by fuel utilization for a particular
event
-high intensity requires more carbohydrate in
the diet
-lower intensity requires more lipid in the diet
however do not consume a high fat dietcrowd out carbs and run the risk of
heart disease
Class exercise
Explain the effects of exercise intensity, duration
and training on substrate utilisation.

Nutritional Requirements
Fluid
Fluid Balance
Important for maintaining blood flow which in turn
is important for supplying blood to skin and hence
temperature control
75 percent of energy goes out as heat-therefore must
sweat
regulated by kidney, sweat loss, feces, respiration
and fluid intake
important to consume sodium and water to replace
water lost as sweat-thus blood sodium is maintained
and therefore so are hormone levels which limit the
rate of urine production
Nutritional Requirements
Fluid Absorption
Factors affecting fluid absorption
-glucose and sodium travel across
intestine on same carrier
Nutritional Requirements
Fluid Requirements
Short duration
-if several heats before actual race this can be
problem for hydration
- plain water dilutes the blood, increases
urination and results in dehydration
Endurance
-plain water lowers blood glucose
concentrations thus increasing the demand on
muscle glycogen
Nutritional Requirements
Carbohydrate
Types of carbohydrate
After glycogen runs out must use
gluconeogenesis to maintain blood glucose
levels
Glycogen loading is important-eg pasta diet
some have suggested complex carbs are better
at glycogen loading in muscle than are simple
carbs but this is debatable
Nutritional Requirements
Carbohydrate
Pre-event
Takes care of hunger
Maintains adequate blood glucose levels for
event
During event
Maintains blood glucose and delays fatigue
Post-event
Builds glycogen up in muscle after
depletion
Nutritional Requirements
Protein
Endurance
Less required than for resistance events
Resistance Exercise
More required than for endurance events
-muscle mass issue
Nutritional Requirements
Protein
Amino acid supplementation
A waste of time- eat more calories in
accordance with Canada’s food guide to
meet increased energy demands
and this will easily meet added
protein/amino acid requirements
Can lead to dehydration, loss of urinary
calcium, weight gain and stress on the
kidney and liver
Nutritional Requirements
Lipid
-supplies essential fatty acids
-important energy source during
endurance exercise
-less important as an energy source
for high intensity exercise
Class exercise
How do the 6 nutrient classes work together to
allow:
a) Aerobic exercise
b) Anaerobic exercise
Break
Nutritional Requirements
Minerals
Iron
-oxygen carrying-hemoglobin and
myoglobin
-part of electron transport chain-ATP
Calcium
-bone mass
Nutritional Requirements
Vitamins
Anti-oxidant vitamins and b-carotene, vitamin C
and E
-exercise produces increased amount of lipid
peroxides and free radicals-damage muscle
-supplements are not required-no evidence
that they improve performance
B vitamins
-important co-enzymes in energy production
-B12-supplement required in strict vegans
Regulation of Metabolism
Oxygen supply
As intensity of exercise increases the oxygen
supply becomes limiting-with training one can
supply more oxygen
Substrate supply
Availability of co-enzymes
Hydration
