Physical Activity Pyramid
10
Developing Fitness
11
Flexibility Muscle strength and endurance Cardiorespiratory endurance Conditioning Training Overload principle
12
Cardiorespiratory Endurance Aerobic activity –VO 2 max Cardiorespiratory conditioning –Cardiac output Muscle conditioning
13
The Energy Systems
14
Glucose Use Diet affects glycogen storage and use
15
Exercise is the only way to deplete muscle glycogen Carbohydrate is the main source of energy for high-intensity, short or intermittent duration activities –Competitive races, basketball, football, soccer, & swimming Contributes to energy used in moderate intensity activites –Jogging, hiking, aerobic dancing, & gymnastics
16
Glucose Use Intensity of activity affects glycogen use Lactic acid Duration of activity affects glycogen use
17
Glucose Use Glucose depletion –Carbohydrate loading Glucose during activity Glucose after activity Training affects glycogen use
18
Fat Use Recommendations for endurance athletes –20% - 30% of energy intake from fat Dietary fat vs. body fat stores
19
Duration of activity affects fat use Intensity of activity affects fat use Training affects fat use Fat Use
20
Protein Use Protein used in muscle building Protein used as fuel Diet affects protein use during activity
21
Intensity and duration of activity affect protein use during activity Training affects protein use Protein Use
23
Vitamins And Minerals Supplements Vitamin E
24
Vitamins And Minerals Iron –Iron deficiency Iron-deficiency anemia –Sports anemia –Iron recommendations for athletes
25
Fluids And Electrolytes Fluid losses via sweat Hyperthermia –Heat stroke Hypothermia
26
Fluids And Electrolytes
27
Electrolyte losses and replacement Hyponatremia Poor beverage choices –Caffeine –Alcohol
28
