= practical application
1. Energy Storage
Energy = ability to do work
Examples of WORK: exercise, muscle contraction, synthesis, nutrient transport, repair, etc.
Splitting ATP bonds
ATP is cellular currency. Compare it to a bank account with lots of withdrawals (energy expenditure) and deposits (substrates).
Generally, about 10 seconds worth of ATP stored in muscle so other energy systems must kick-in very quickly during exercise
Energy Sources
SubstratesPhosphocreatine (PCr)Carbohydrates Fat (Protein)
when oxidized……re-phosphorylate ADP
ADP + P → ATP

How much fuel is stored? Carbohydrate
Liver glycogen ≈ 400 kcals Muscle glycogen ≈ 1,400 kcals
100g CHO in liver, 375g CHO in muscle… consider how rapidly this can be used up during exercise at an oxidation rate of 1g/min!
Fat Intramuscular Triglycerides (IMTG) ≈ 3,000kcals Adipose tissue ≈ 80,000kcals
This is true even in very lean individuals.
2. Energy Metabolism, Substrate Utilization, & Oxygen Transport
Two types of energy metabolism
1. Anaerobic Occurs when oxygen is not available
Phosphocreatine System Anaerobic Glycolysis (aka: Lactate Glycolysis)
2. Aerobic Requires oxygen
Aerobic Glycolysis Kreb’s Cycle (aka: TCA Cycle, Citric Acid Cycle) Electron Transport Chain (ETC) Beta-oxidation (fat)

When hydrogen ions are produced too fast to combine with NADH and be oxidized by ETC a back-up of H+ occurs
These H+ combine with pyruvate to form LACTATE
Lactate should be considered a BY-PRODUCT rather than a WASTE PRODUCT. For a period of time, lactate can be recycled through glycolysis to keep producing ATP (CORI CYCLE).
Remember: glycolysis “works” both ways!
This continues until lactate produced in the blood from working muscles exceeds lactate clearance from liver (LACTATE THRESHOLD).
At Lactate Threshold, H+ builds up and can contribute to fatigue
?
Lactate Threshold
Intensity of exercise when lactate production exceeds clearance
Training regimens often involve training at a level > lactate threshold.
Typical LT:
70-80% VO2max for trained people
50-60% VO2max for untrained people.
Practice Question
Which of the following is true regarding lactateaccumulation in skeletal muscle?
A. It is formed as a waste product of aerobic glycolysis.B. It is a by-product of the electron transport chain.C. It is a gluconeogenic precursor.D. It is a co-factor in the carnitine shuttle.

Electron Transport Chain
Series of oxidation-reduction reactions Oxidation: when oxygen, hydrogen, or electrons are
TRANSFERRED Reduction: when electrons are ACCEPTED
End point = oxygen accepts electrons and is reduced to form water
Many cytochromes (iron-containing electron carriers are involved)
No wonder iron deficiency causes decreased aerobic performance!
Is fat gluconeogenic?
NO…by-products of FA oxidation can only enter metabolism at Acetyl-Co A
Pyruvate(end of glycolysis)
Acetyl-Co A(beginning of Krebs cycle)
How does protein enter energy metabolism?
The process by which amino acids are used for energy is DEAMINATION (amine group removed in liver) or TRANSAMINATION (amine group discarded in muscle) to leave carbons that can enter energy metabolism somewhere in Krebs Cycle, at pyruvate, or conversion back to glucose (glucogenic).
Removing the amine group (nitrogen) involves kidneys and increased urine production…depending on protein for fuel increases risk of dehydration.

Notes on Carbohydrate Use At the beginning of exercise, carbs are used at a high rate since fat can’t
keep up with early ATP production. Carbs are very valuable…they make ATP fast and facilitate higher intensity exercise
Later in exercise, carbs are needed (at pyruvate) to foster fat movement through Krebs Cycle which is why carbs are called the “rate limiting” fuel.
In moderate endurance exercise, performance directly correlates with initial muscle glycogen concentration.
Glycogen depleted subjects cycled 57 min at 70% VO2max Glycogen loaded subjects cycled 114 min at 70% VO2max
Classic study by Bergstrom et al Acta Physiol Scand 1967.
Many athletes train hard all week long, aren’t eating enough carbs in general or during recovery, and then compete on the weekends. Major education point!
Notes on Carbohydrate Use Why does carb loading work to enhance performance?
Utilize less fat (means higher intensity is possible) Utilize almost no protein (unless exercise is very long) NOTE: ADA/ ACSM Position Statement on Nutrition for
Athletic Performance states that carb loading is effective for exercise LONGER than 90 minutes.
Consider that glycogen depletion has now been shown to affect even high intensity, shorter exercise In sports who don’t typically consider “carb loading”, there may be decreased physical performance, increased risk of injury, poor concentration, and decreased coordination when glycogen stores are too low.
Notes on Carbohydrate Use The amount of carbs used during exercise
varies based on: Diet Liver and muscle glycogen stores (i.e.: fasting in am = low
liver glycogen = less glucose/more fat used) Body and environmental temperature Carbs consumed during exercise
Why take in carbs during exercise? Keeps blood sugar high and favors carbohydrate use (faster
ATP production) Blunts FA oxidation
Notes on Fat Use Fat contributes 30-80% of energy for exercise depending on:
exercise intensity duration of exercise fitness level
Intramuscular TG contribute 15-35% of energy for exercise
Fat becomes more important when exercise is long or carbohydrate stores run low.
As blood flow increases w/ exercise, adipose tissue releases more FFA (but there is a lag time)
As exercise intensity increases, FFA energy production from adipose stays about the same while IMTG and glycogen breakdown increase
Notes on Fat Use Once FFA enter muscle cell, they either enter the carnitine shuttle for
energy metabolism (MCT and short chain TG do not need shuttle; they go straight to mitochondria). Others are stored as TG.
When TG are oxidized from adipose tissue, FA bind to albumin in blood stream and enter mitochondria for Krebs and ETC. Glycerol can enter glycolysis and produce ATP.
Carbs are needed to provide Krebs intermediates for fat breakdown. When carbs run out, ketones are formed from incomplete fat breakdown.
Fat in recovery period from exercise less likely to be stored and more likely to be oxidized (part of why regular exercise helps with weight loss)
High fat diet (fat-loading) may increase IMTG and fat enzyme function, theoretically leading to greater oxidation during exercise. Many find it intolerable and most studies show no performance benefits.
Keep client’s goals in mind
Exercising for fat-burning is different than exercising for optimal performance.
Optimal intensity for fat burning is 55 to 72% VO2 max
but training/performance may be optimized at higher level
Burn more fat in fasted state Ability to burn more carbs in fed state
help exercisers think of total calories expended
Practice Question
Which of the following is not a BCAA?
A. LysineB. LeucineC. ValineD. Isoleucine
SEE YELLOW PAGE AT END OF MANUAL FOR CORRECT ANSWERS.
Notes on protein use
Depending on novelty of exercise, protein breakdown increases modestly with exercise but protein synthesis increases significantly with BOTH endurance and resistance exercise
Some discrepancy over amount of protein that is used for fuel. Generally 2-6% of energy production.
Greater use in ultra-endurance. BCAA (leucine, isoleucine, and valine) are oxidized by skeletal
muscle rather than liver. Aspartate, glutamine, alanine, asparagine, and lysine can be oxidized in muscle also (with preference given to BCAA).
Use more protein for fuel in a glycogen-depleted state or if in chronic negative energy balance
Dieters or restrictive eaters may be at risk of lean tissue loss!
Amino Acids
ESSENTIAL (not produced endogenously)
1. Isoleucine2. Leucine3. Lysine4. Methionine5. Phenylalanine6. Threonine 7. Tryptophan8. Valine

Some may become essential in certain scenarios…
Bottom line
1. Substrate and energy system used depends on: Exercise intensity Exercise duration Substrate availability Training status
2. Don’t run out of carbs!
Gender differences
For females:
Carb loading is less effective. They use a lower proportion of carbs and higher proportion of fat
than males in similar intensity exercise. With training, there is a shift toward using more fat
(so, greater glycogen-sparing effect)
Why? Not fully understood, but possibly:
Differences in catecholamine response Estrogen/progesterone may enhance lipolysis and limit glycolysis
Muscle Fiber Types 2 primary types
TYPE I: Slow-twitch Contract slowly; primarily aerobic pathways Dense in mitochondria and capillaries (oxygen) Fatigue slowly
TYPE II: Fast-twitch Fast contractions
Type IIa: both aerobic and anaerobic pathways Type IIb: anaerobic pathways
Fatigue quickly
Proportion of each type depends on genetics, exercise training, other factors?
Other oxygen-related exercise terminology
Respiratory Quotient (RQ) Ratio of CO2 produced : O2 consumed RQ for carbs = 1, fat = .7 An estimate RQ of .82 is used for general activity Using exercise testing to determine RQ at specific workloads can help tailor
during-exercise fuel plans
VO2max
Measure of cardiorespiratory fitness Greatest rate of oxygen consumption attained during exercise
(L/min) or (ml/kg body weight/min) Don’t have a metabolic cart in your office?
HRmax = 220 – age (Karvonen Formula) 70% of HRmax correlates with approximately 75-80% VO2max
MET (Metabolic Equivalents) Measure of workload 1 MET = resting oxygen consumption of average human (3.5 mL/kg/min) Well-trained athletes may be able to work at a level of 15-17+ METS
3. Enzymes & Hormones
Enzymes
Definition: protein structure that catalyzes and accelerates chemical reactions without being consumed or changed in the process
Enzymes you should knowATPase
Converts ATP to ADP + P (and the reverse reaction); phosphorylates
Creatine phosphokinase Converts PCr to Cr + P (and the reverse reaction)
Glycogen Phosphorylase Glycogenolysis: breaks down glycogen → glucose
Glycogen synthase Glycogenesis: synthesizes glycogen from glucose
Hormone sensitive lipase (HSL) Breaks down muscle & adipose tissue TG → FFA
Cyclic AMP activates HSL
Lipoprotein lipase Breaks down circulating TG → FFA
Lactate dehydrogenase Combines pyruvate with 2 hydrogen atoms to form lactate
Hormones
Definition: internally secreted compounds formed in endocrine glands that affect the functions of specifically receptive organs or tissues when transported to them by the body fluids
Hormones you should know
Promote glycogen/carb breakdown: epinephrine, glucagon, norepinephrine
Promote glycogen/carb storage: insulin
Promote fat breakdown: epinephrine, glucagon, growth hormone, norepinephrine
Promote fat storage: insulin
Promote protein breakdown (catabolic): glucagon
Prevents protein breakdown: insulin
Promote protein building (anabolic): growth hormone
Hormones you should know
Estrogen, Progesterone, Follicle Stimulating Hormone
Testosterone
4. Response to Training
Response to training
glycogen storage capacity lactate threshold oxidation and transport of FA and IMTG increases number of capillaries plasma volume Krebs Cycle and ETC activity transamination enzymes to enhance use of protein for energy
effects of glycogen depletion
So, does a well-trained person require as much carbohydrate during exercise someone of lower fitness level?
ex: fast marathoner vs. 5 hour marathoner
5. Fatigue
Fatigue
Why do athletes “hit the wall” or “bonk”? Run out of substrate (carbs)
No glucose for brain (CF), carbs are needed to use fat When only fat is left, energy production is slow and intensity
decreases Build-up of lactate (or other metabolites)
Changes acidity of muscle environment → inhibition of some important energy enzymes, inhibits fat breakdown (aerobic metabolism) and the muscle contractile process itself
Central fatigue Disturbances at neural or contractile level of muscle
Calcium channels? Changes in pH
