Energy Systems


Types of energy

•Chemical

•Mechanical

•Heat

•Light

•Electric

•Nuclear


Laws of ThermodynamicsLaws of Thermodynamics

• energy transfer always proceeds in the direction of increased entropy and the release of free energy

• 1- Energy cannot be created or destroyed– Chemical energy

mechanical energy


DefinitionsDefinitions• Enzymes

– Highly specific protein catalysts– Accelerate the forward and reverse reactions– Are neither consumed nor changed in the reaction

• Coenzymes– Complex nonprotein organic substances – facilitate enzyme action by binding the substrate

with its specific enzyme – transport chemical groups from one enzyme to

another.


Catabolism :

Metabolic pathways that break down molecules into smaller units and release energy

Anabolism

Covalent bonding of electrons, protons and small molecules to produce larger molecules building up

- Catabolism and anabolism function in a dynamic balance.

More definitions

• Exergonic is a spontaneous reaction that releases energy.

• Endergonic is an anabolic reaction that consumes energy.


Energy systems

Generate ATP under different conditions•ATP-PC

•Lactic acid/ glycolysis•Aerobic/ Oxidative


ATP- Adenosine Triphosphate

– Powers all of cell’s energy-requiring processes

– Potential energy extracted from food

– Energy is stored in

bonds of ATP– 80-100g is stored


Energy Systems Energy Systems

• Immediate energy 8 seconds– ATP-PC

• Short-term energy 1 or 2 minutes– Lactic acid system– Glycolytic system– Anaerobic glcolysis

• Long-term energy>3 minutes– Aerobic system

ATP

• All gone after 2 seconds maximal intensity


ATP-PC system

• Anaerobic resynthesis of ATP- 5-8 seconds of energy

• Hydrolyzed by the enzyme, creatine kinase

• ADP is phosphorylated to ATP

• Creatine may be phosphorylated back to PCr


Adenosine Diphosphate

• ADP is ATP minus one phosphate group

• 14 calories of energy is released each time ATP ADP


Remember the Spare Phosphate??

• The Spare P that was released from ATP ADP hooks up with Creatine to form …

• Creatine Phosphate (CrP)

• Cells store ~ 4 – 6 times more PCr than ATP


Creatine Supplementation

• If Phosphocreatine (PCr) is depleted, it cannot regenerate ATP

• Ingestion Creatine monohydrate (20 g per day) over 5 days increased stores PC

• Therefore improves performance short intense exercise in non weight bearing exercise

• Also enhanced physiologic adaptation to resistance training Increased dynamic muscular strength and muscle mass

• Beware of side effects long term still unknown


GlycolysisGlycolysis

• During performances of short duration and high intensity that require rapid energy transfer that exceeds that supplied by phosphagens – 400-m sprint– 100-m swim – Multi-sprint sports

• Anything up to 3 minutes• Lactate is the by product “Lactic acid system’


Glycolysis

• Breakdown of glucose or glycogen to form 2 molecules pyruvate and 4 ATP

• Requires 2 molecules ATP for the process to occur

• = Net gain 2 molecules ATP


Lactic acid? Lactate?

• Not the same

• Lactate that accumulates during anaerobic metabolism does not cause acidosis

• Lactate Pyruvate Acetyl CoA Kreb’s cycle & Aerobic production ATP


Lactic Acid System Lactic Acid System

• Blood lactate @ rest is usually 1-2 mmol/L but can rise to over 20 mmol/L during intense exertion.

• Lactate accumulation– rate of lactate production

exceeds the rate of lactate removal

• Lactate removal– Gluconeogenesis-

conversion to glucose through Cori cycle in the liver

If oxygen present:– Oxidation to pyruvate

• Fuels citric acid cycle


Lactate Inflexion Point- LIP

• Intensity of exercise above which anaerobic energy system is required to meet energy demands.

• Lactate accumulates as removal cannot exceed production

• Measurable as blood lactate levels increase substantially

Page 109 of text


AerobicAerobic

• Oxidative Phosphorylation

• Lipids– Lipolysis– Beta oxidation– Kreb’s cycle

• Carbs– Glycolysis – Pyruvate Acetyl CoA– Krebs cycle (citric acid

cycle or tricarboxylic acid cycle)

– Electron transport chain


Krebs Cycle

• Also known as the TCA cycle, or citric acid cycle

• Continues oxidation of – Carbohydrates following glycolysis– Fatty acids following beta oxidation– Some amino acids following deamination

Anaerobic/ aerobic systems

• 12 chemical reactions to convert carbohydrate (either stored glycogen or circulating blood glucose) to pyruvate

No Oxygen

Pyruvate converted to Lactate

Produces 2-3 mol ATP

Oxygen

Pyruvate enters Krebs cycle and is used to generate ATP

Produces 38-39 mol ATP


What you need to know:


Transition to Exercise

• O2 consumption


Recovery-EPOC

• O2 consumption remains elevated

• O2 Dept = payment for O2 deficit

Pg 118 text


Vo2 Max

• Determines cardiovascular fitness

• O2 uptake increases with intensity of exercise up until a certain point

• ml/kg/minute• Factors influencing:

– Delivery– uptake


Yield: 1g = 4.1 Cal

Yield: 1g = 4.1 Cal

Yield: 1g = 9.4 Cal

Implications


Sources of Fatigue- p 113 text

• PCr depletion• Muscle glycogen depletion• Neuromuscular- nerve impulses• CNS- muscle recruitment• Metabolic by-products

– Lactate– Hydrogen ions low ph– Buffers- bicarbonate


Muscle Fibre Types

• Type 1 = Slow twitch– Generates energy aerobically– For endurance exercise

• Type 2 = fast twitch• 2a- some aerobic power / anaerobic• 2b-predominantly anaerobic

– Generates energy anaerobically– For short intense exercise


Recovery from exercise

• Remove lactate

• Re-oxygenation muscle myoglobin

• Replace– Muscle glycogen– PCr– Lipid levels


Active recovery

• Movement at a lower intensity/ submax performed immediately after exercise

• Assists with oxidation of lactate (Lactate shuttling)

• But as is aerobic may impair

glycogen synthesis


Passive recovery

• Lie down complete inactivity

• Theory is that this ‘frees’ oxygen for the recovery process

• Downfall no lactate shuttling


Which is best?

• Research inconclusive• Depends on exercise to recover from• Steady rate exercise

– PCr stores not depleted– Lactate levels not increased– Depends on post exercise glucose intake

• Intense/Non-Steady rate exercise– Large O2 deficit


Lactate Removal

Exercise Recovery
