- | ===Metabolic aspects of exercise===
| + | |
- | *Exercise requires lots of ATP for all the work the muscle is doing.
| + | |
- | *ATP can be generated in three ways: the phosphagen system, the glycogen-lactic acid system, or the aerobic system.
| + | |
- | **The phosphagen system uses creatine kinase to move the phosphate group off of creatine to ADP, generating ATP.
| + | |
- | ***The phosphagen system (and the resident ATP) covers the energy for the 0-60 seconds of vigorous exercise.
| + | |
- | **The glycogen-lactic acid system runs glycogen through glycolysis to generate lactic acid.
| + | |
- | ***The glycogen-lactic acid system covers the energy for the 1-4 minutes of vigorous activity.
| + | |
- | **The aerobic system uses the electron transport chain to generate ATP from glucose, fatty acids, and amino acids.
| + | |
- | ***Aerobic oxidation of muscle glycogen, plasma glucose, and liver glycogen cover the energy for minutes 4-200 (and then tapers off).
| + | |
- | ***Aerobic oxidation of plasma FFA (free fatty acids) and adipose tissue TAGs (triacylglycerides) cover the energy for minutes 45 and beyond.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | ===Energy conversion in skeletal muscle===
| + | |
- | *Recall that glycolysis takes glucose to two pyruvate molecules, generating 6 ATP and 2 NADH.
| + | |
- | *Recall that bursts of heavy activity utilize the phosphagen system and the glycogen-lactic acid systems for production of ATP.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | ===Energy suply to muscle during exercise===
| + | |
- | *During exercise, epinephrine is elevated which signals to the liver, skeletal muscle, and adipose tissue.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | | + | |
- | *Epinephrine at the liver:
| + | |
- | **Epinephrine causes the liver to increase glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis.
| + | |
- | **Epi--like glucagon--binds to a receptor that elevates cAMP levels and thus triggers activation of appropriate enzymes.
| + | |
- | **Note that gluconeogenesis can use lactic acid as a precursor to be converted into glucose.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | | + | |
- | *Epinephrine at the muscle:
| + | |
- | **Epinephrine at the skeletal muscle signals for the use of glycolysis (the anaerobic burning of glucose).
| + | |
- | **Epinephrine binds to a cAMP elevating receptor on skeletal muscle which leads to activation of appropriate enzymes for converting glucose into ATP and aerobic intermiediates (think NADH and pyruvate).
| + | |
- | **Glucose converted to pyruvate too quickly to be used in the (limited capacity citric acid cycle--oxphos) can be converted to lactic acid and secreted into the blood to be used in gluconeogenesis at the liver.
| + | |
- | ***Recall that this loop (glucose -> pyruvate (to get the ATP and NADH) -> lactic acid -> liver -> glucose -> muscle -> pyruvate...) is called the '''cori cycle'''.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | | + | |
- | *Epinephrine at the adipose tissue:
| + | |
- | **Epinephrine at the adipose tissue causes TAG breakdown into FFAs for secretion into the blood.
| + | |
- | **Epinephrine binds to a receptor that activates the '''hormone-sensitive lipase'''.
| + | |
- | | + | |
- | | + | |
- | ===Oxygen consumption during exercise===
| + | |
- | *The basal rate of oxygen consumption is about 0.25 L / minute.
| + | |
- | *Light exercise can elevate oxygen consumption 3-fold to about 1 liter.
| + | |
- | *Heavy exercise can elevate oxygen consumption 8-10 fold to nearly 3.5 liters.
