Oxygen Uptake, Oxygen Deficit and Oxygen Debit

Delivery of Oxygen to the Working Muscles The respiratory system is responsible for the extraction of oxygen from the atmosphere. This process is called ventilation. Diffusion – Exchange of gases based on concentration levels (High to low). Occurs at a cellular level (In the lungs and in the muscle cell) Cardiac output (Heart rate x stroke volume) - The heart pumps out oxygenated blood to the vascular system. Oxygen combines with haemoglobin in the blood Myoglobin, in the muscle attracts the oxygen from the blood and draws it into the mitochondria. Waste produces of aerobic metabolism is removed from the muscle cell via diffusion. See fig 5.2 p.119 VCE Physical Education - Unit 3

VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 Oxygen Uptake Limiting factors to oxygen uptake; Respiratory system – ability to take in oxygen Cardiovascular system – ability to transport and deliver oxygen Muscular system – Utilisation of oxygen Type of exercise performed, genetic inheritance, lifestyle, age and gender.

Heart Rate and Oxygen consumption When exercising; Our heart rate increases to meet the oxygen demands for the working muscles. The relationship between HR and oxygen consumption is linear. Trained athletes are able to utilise their oxygen uptake more efficiently than non trained people. See fig 5.3 p.119 p.119 VCE Physical Education - Unit 3

Oxygen Uptake, Oxygen Deficit and Oxygen Debit

VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 Oxygen Deficit p.120 Oxygen deficit occurs when the demand for oxygen exceeds the supply of oxygen available. The body therefore needs to obtain ATP through anaerobic pathways. Short duration/high intensity – Lactic acid is produced but is removed once oxygen demands are met. Performance is hindered due to the presence of lactic acid Once oxygen demands are met, the body reaches its steady state. Aerobic glycolysis assists in the removal of lactic acid.

Oxygen Uptake, Oxygen Deficit and Oxygen Debit Acute Responses Oxygen Uptake, Oxygen Deficit and Oxygen Debit

VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 Acute Responses p.122 Acute responses occur to supply extra oxygen and nutrients to support ATP production. Acute responses include; Reduction in creatine stores Accumulation of lactic acid Increase in epinephrine (Regulates BP and O2 consumption levels) Reduction in glycogen stores Increase in muscle temperature Increase in cardiac output Redistribution of blood to working muscles. Responses are dependent on intensity, duration, fitness levels and type of activity used. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3

VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 Acute Responses Acute responses to exercise. Increase in; Oxygen intake Transport of oxygen Extraction of oxygen from the blood Consumption of oxygen by working muscles Continues until maximum uptake is met (VO2 max) http://www.bbc.co.uk/science/humanbody/body/ VCE Physical Education - Unit 3

Oxygen Uptake, Oxygen Deficit and Oxygen Debit Oxygen Debt Oxygen Uptake, Oxygen Deficit and Oxygen Debit

VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 Oxygen Debit After exercise our demand for ATP decreases but we still need to ‘repay’ the oxygen needed during exercise. This is why we puff after intense activities. The higher the intensity and duration of activities, the longer the oxygen debit. VCE Physical Education - Unit 3

VCE Physical Education - Unit 3 EPOC p.127 Another term used for oxygen recovery is EPOC – excess post-exercise oxygen consumption. Alactacid Debt – Oxygen used to restore ATP and PC stores Lactacid Debt - Oxygen used to remove lactic acid from cells/blood. Additional oxygen is used to recover the energy systems.
