What is direct calorimetry expenditure and how does it measure energy expenditure?
Rate and quantity of energy production measures body heat production. unit=calorieDirect measures resting metabolismCARBS/FATS/PROTEINS + 02 = HEAT +CO2+H2O
What is indirect calorimetry and how does it measure energy expenditure?
The total body expenditure measured by respiratory gases. Measures O2 consumption.respiratory exchange of O2 and CO2 must be completely oxidative. (real life scenario)
What physiological adaptations would change our ability to consume O2? (4)
1.make a fair comparison of individuals who are different sizes2. biological aging/lifestyles (sedentary v. active)3.gender (women have values below men)4.bodycomp and blood hemoglobin content
Fick equation
VO2= CARDIAC OUTPUT x arteriovenous O2 difference *CARDIAC OUTPUT=HR x SV
VO2 expressed as "absolute"
L or mL of O2 consumed per minute
VO2 expressed as "relative"
ML of O2 consumed per kg of body weight per minute
CARDIAC OUTPUT (decrease HR x increase SV) (4)
1. increase heart thickness2. increase force of contraction3. increase ventricular size4. increase blood volume
A-VO2 difference( out of blood into muscles)(3)
1. increase mitochondria2. increase capillaries3. increase enzymes
RER>1.10
=CO2/O2near 1.10 anaerobic metabolism and aerobic capacity has ran out
Stroke Volume
Total amount of blood the heart can pump in a minute and the volume
How the metabolic system measures O2 CONSUMPTION (L/min)
VO2= (VI X FIO2) - (VE X FEO2)volume of air inspired X fraction of O2 in the inspired air - volume of air expired X fraction of oxygen in the air expired
How the metabolic system measures CO2 CONSUMPTION (L/min)
VCO2=(VE X FECO2) - (VI X FICO2)volume of air expired X fraction of CO2 in expired air - volume of inspired air X fraction of CO2 in the inspired air
What 3 gases make up inspired air
1. O2= 20.93%2.CO2 =0.04% 3. N2 = 79.03%
How do we measure VO2 Max (4)
1. warm up2. perform 6-12 min. of incremental exercise until exhaustion (increase speed, grade, or resistance every 2-3 min. until exhaustion)3.Measure VO2 through out the test using indirect calorimetry4.cycle vs. treadmill (specificity of training or ability)
How do we measure VO2 during exercise
1.acute response: increase linearly with intensity2. training response (aerobic): -decrease at submax levels compared to before training -increase max VO2 (10-20%)3.VO2 Max:relative values: -untrained= <=25ml/kg/min -average= ~38-42ml/kg/min -trained= >=50 ml/kg/min
