Chapter 10 Nutrients, Physical Activity, and the Body’s Responses
Nutrition: Concepts & Controversies, 12e Sizer/Whitney
2
Introduction Physical activity and nutrition Needs Results
Energy-yielding nutrients Vitamins and minerals Results Regulation of energy-yielding nutrients Body composition Daily calorie allowance
3
Fitness Depends on physical activity or exercise Benefits
Movement, muscle contraction, & energy expenditure Benefits Chronic disease Longevity Disease resistance Numerous other benefits
4
Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans
5
Intensity of Physical Activity
6
The Essentials of Fitness
Components of fitness Adaptations Athletes Muscle power Agility Reaction times Fatigue
7
How Do Muscles Gain in Size and Strength?
Activity choices Overload Balance of activity and rest Work different muscle groups Muscles need rest Replenish and adapt Specific training Hormones and muscle growth
8
What Are the Benefits of Resistance Training?
Progressive weight training Prevent and manage chronic disease Muscle strength & size, power, or endurance Resistance and repetitions Appearance Mobility and bone loss Slows loss of physical mobility Maximize and maintain bone mass
9
How Does Cardiorespiratory Training Benefit the Heart?
Enhances capacity Heart, lungs, and blood Enhances efficiency Delivery of oxygen VO2 max Removal of wastes Blood lipid profile Heart disease risk
10
The Active Body’s Use of Fuels
Mixtures Vary Excess postexercise oxygen consumption (EPOC) High intensity activities Cardiac output Fuel usage
11
Delivery of Oxygen by the Heart and Lungs to the Muscles
12
Glucose Use and Storage
Muscle glucose Retains glycogen for own use Liver glucose Glycogen and endurance High-carbohydrate diets
13
The Effect of Diet on Physical Endurance
14
Activity Intensity, Glucose Use, and Glycogen Stores
Energy stored as glycogen Anaerobic use of glucose Quick energy Muscle glycogen reserves Aerobic use of glucose Energy from glucose and fatty acids Lactate Anaerobic activity Muscle size and strength
15
Glucose and Fatty Acids in Their Energy-Releasing Pathways in Muscle Cells
16
Activity Duration, Glucose Use, and Glycogen Stores
Duration of activity Intensity of activity Blood glucose and activity Dietary strategies High carbohydrate diet daily Consume glucose during activity Consume carbohydrate shortly after exercise
17
Fat and Physical Activity
Body fat as fuel for activity Sources of fat Importance of strength training Fat in the athlete’s diet Performance Omega-3 fatty acids Intensity and duration Degree of training
18
Protein for Building Muscles and for Fuel
Muscle protein synthesis Up to two days after activity Intensity and pattern of muscle contraction Muscle cells only build proteins as needed Dietary protein Supplements High-quality proteins Fuel for physical activity Factors that regulate protein use
19
Nutrients of Concern Vitamin E Iron
Physical activity creates more free radicals Benefits of vitamin E supplements Studies are conflicting Interference with absorption Iron Deficiency impairs performance Groups at risk for deficiency Sports anemia
20
Water Losses During Physical Activity
Breathing and sweating Dehydration Sweat and temperature regulation Heat stroke Potentially fatal Reduce risk Hypothermia Symptoms
21
Fluid and Electrolyte Needs During Physical Activity
Hydrate and rehydrate Thirst signal Hourly sweat rate Water Endurance athletes Electrolyte losses and replacement Minerals Sports drinks vs. regular diet
22
Sodium Depletion and Water Intoxication
Replenishing electrolytes Crucial time Hyponatremia Differs from dehydration Heat cramps Sodium
23
What Do Sports Drinks Have to Offer?
Fluid Glucose Sodium and other electrolytes Psychological edge
24
Ergogenic Aids Caffeine Carnitine Chromium picolinate
Endurance vs. high-intensity activities Adverse effects Diuretic Carnitine Nonessential nutrient Chromium picolinate Carbohydrate and lipid metabolism Safety concerns
25
Ergogenic Aids Creatine Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA)
Hypothesized benefits Confirmed effect Weight gain Conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) Not worth their price Sodium bicarbonate Unpleasant side effects
26
Ergogenic Aids Amino acid supplements Maximum gains Best source
Essential amino acids in system prior to physical work Best source Food Reasons against supplements
27
Ergogenic Aids Whey protein and other protein supplements
By product of cheese making Timing of protein intake Complete meal replacers Fall short of ‘complete’ nutrition Risk of dental caries Nutritional uses Pregame meal Between-meal snack
28
Hormone Preparations Anabolic steroid hormones
Illegal and dangerous Steroid alternative supplements Herbal or insect sterols Prohormones Androstenedione DHEA Drugs posing as supplements
29
Physical Risks of Taking Steroid Hormone Drugs
