KINE 1020 Lecture Notes - Lecture 13: Cardiovascular Disease, Lipoprotein, Triglyceride
Document Summary
Theory: use more fat and spare glycogen, leave glycogen for later. They tested that theory and it was correct. After 5 days of high fat diet you are using high fat for energy instead of carbohydrates. Greatest benefit of high carb diet in untrained. High fat diets better tolerated in trained athletes. Need to train at high fat diets! 90% stored in skeletal muscle (60% as pcr) 70% of people will increase creatine stores with supplementation (20 g/day) Aid in high intensity activities <30 sec: power/strength (5-15%, single (1-5%) and repetitive (5-15%) sprint performance, jumping, cycling, but not running. Improve mean power by 2% in high-intensity races. May also help with power and resistance training (60-180 sec) 10 days of detraining can decrease your max by the same as increasing it. Drops 17% after 3 months faster to decrease vo2 max than increasing it. Related to decreased: stroke volume, blood volume, muscle oxygen extraction, muscle blood flow, oxidative enzymes.
