Summary Introduction
To review:
Effect of protein diet thatleads to a reduction of glycogen in muscle fibers and liver on the following:
a. Ability to perform short and powerful bursts activities
b. Ability to perform endurance activities
Introduction:
Muscle contraction process requires energy in the form of ATP (adenosine triphosphate). There are different sources of ATPs for the muscles. The ATPs stored in muscles are utilized first, followed by creatine phosphate

Which are the effects of insulin on adipocytes? Inhibits gluconeogenesis Inhibits lipolysis Stimulates glucose entry into cell Stimulates glycogenolysis Stimulates triglyceride synthesisarrow_forwardEndurance athletes sometimes follow the exercise-and-diet plan described here: 7 days before an event, do exhaustive exercises so as to all but deplete glycogen stores. For the next 2 to 3 days, consume few carbohydrates and do moderate- to low- intensity exercises. Finally, 3 to 4 days before the event, consume a diet rich in carbohydrates. Explain the benefits of this regime.arrow_forward
- We all get tired sometimes, especially if we have been doing a lot of physical activity like these hikers. But for Jasmin, a 34-year-old former high school track star who is now a recreational runner, her tiredness was going far beyond what she thought should be normal for someone who is generally in good physical shape. She was experiencing extreme fatigue after her runs, as well as muscle cramping, spasms, and an unusual sense of heaviness in her legs. At first, she chalked it up to getting older, but her exhaustion and longer run for more than a few minutes at a time. She also began to experience other unusual symptoms, such as blurry vision and vomiting for no apparent reason. What are mitochondria? What is their structure, function, and where did they come from during evolution? Why are fatigue and “exercise intolerance”, such as Jasmin’s extreme exhaustion after running, common symptoms of mitochondrial diseases? Why do you think Jasmin has symptoms that affect so many different…arrow_forwardMen are generally stronger than women because they typically have larger bodies, and a more significant proportion of their total body mass is made up of muscle. However, when strength is expressed per unit of the cross-sectional area of muscle tissue, men are only 1-2% stronger than women in the upper body and equal to women in the lower body. Explain two factors that explain these disparities.arrow_forwardThe basal metabolic rate (BMR) represents the (a) maximum energy expenditure when exercising. (b) minimum, resting energy expenditure of an awake, alert person. (c) minimum amount of energy expenditure during light exercise. (d) muscular energy expenditure added to the resting energy expenditure.arrow_forward
- When an animal dies, its limbs and body become stiff because its muscles go into rigor mortis (literally, rigor mortis means “stiffness of death”). Why would the loss of ATP following death cause this to happen?arrow_forwardAn athlete is aiming to optimize their protein intake for muscle repair and growth. Which of the following dietary modifications could potentially enhance the utilization of dietary protein for muscle protein synthesis?A) Consuming protein exclusively from plant-based sources like lentils and beans.B) Spreading protein intake evenly throughout the day, including after exercise.C) Increasing protein intake to more than 3 grams per kilogram of body weight daily.D) Exclusively consuming protein shakes immediately post-workout.arrow_forwardWhat is the effect of cis and Trans fatty acids on athletes?arrow_forward

Depletion of glycogen that was stored in skeletal muscle and the live d.)
