Download or read book Effects of Pre exercise Carbohydrate Consumption on Metabolism During Exercise written by Luke James Monzingo and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is well documented that consuming carbohydrates (CHO) prior to exercise has been shown to alter metabolism. There are many ways that CHO ingestion affects substrate utilization and blood glucose dynamics at the start of exercise. Changes in the concentrations of blood glucose, insulin, glucagon, free fatty acids (FFAs) as well as varying utilizations of different substrates have been observed. Each of these responses is reflective of the body’s capacity to maintain homeostasis through different physiological conditions and demands. PURPOSE: The aim is to deduce how varying amounts (approximately 0, 12.5, 25 and 50g for a 70 kg person) of pre-exercise sucrose ingestion effects metabolism including blood glucose concentration and fat oxidation during 30 minutes of moderate intense exercise. METHODS: This will be a randomized crossover study. After the initial assessment of baseline data (VO2peak), participants will be asked to perform four cycling trials at 50% of VO2peak for 30 minutes. Forty-five minutes before each exercise trial, participants will consume 0, 12.5, 25 and 50g (for a 70kg person) of sucrose. VO2 and VCO2 will be collected for 15 minutes prior to exercise and for the entire 30 minutes of cycling. Blood glucose will be obtained through the finger prick method and collected directly prior to exercise, 5, 15 and 30 minutes into cycling. Heart rate and rate of perceived exertion will be measured every 5 minutes of exercise. DISCUSSION: It is speculated that a small dose (12.5g for a 70kg person) of pre-exercise sucrose consumption will be able to demonstrate a decline in blood glucose concentration during exercise with a step-wise reduction in fat oxidation. This dose response curve will display the sensitivity of metabolism to ingested sucrose.

Download or read book Nutritional Coaching Strategy to Modulate Training Efficiency written by K.D. Tipton and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regular training and adequate nutrition are key factors in modulating exercise performance: Optimal performance requires a healthy diet adapted to the specific demands of the individual athlete's training and competition. Research has shown an impact of dietary intervention on the modulation of the skeletal muscle adaptive response to prolonged exercise training. Proper nutritional coaching should therefore not be restricted to the competitive events, but needs to be applied throughout both training and competition, each with its specific requirements regarding nutrient provision. Proper nutritional counseling will thus improve exercise training efficiency and ultimately increase performance capacity. Moreover, dietary counseling to modulate training efficiency is also relevant to the general public and the more frail clinically compromised patient groups.This book provides a solid scientific basis to help the reader define key targets for future interventions and develop new insights into the complex interaction between nutrition and exercise.

Download or read book Sports Nutrition written by Ron J. Maughan and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2011 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diet and athletic performance -- new aspects Diet significantly affects athletic performance, and adoption of a dietary strategy that meets an athlete's nutrition goals will maximize the possibility of competitive success. Over the years, the focus has shifted from a high intake of (animal) protein to the role of carbohydrate and water. Today, there is a growing recognition that the primary role of sports nutrition may be to promote the adaptations taking place in muscle and other tissues in response to the training stimulus. There is also much interest in the implications of manipulation of the fat and carbohydrate content of the diet. This publication contains the proceedings of the 69th Nestl Nutrition Institute Workshop held in Hawaii in October 2010. The aim of the workshop was to explore the effects of nutritional manipulations on the metabolic responses to acute and chronic exercise. Another goal was to further identify the possible role of these dietary interventions in promoting adaptive changes in muscle, adipose tissues and other potential sites of limitation to exercise performance. Papers cover the three macronutrients carbohydrate, fat and protein, plus an additional chapter on water, together with the accompanying discussions.

Download or read book Exercise and Diabetes written by Sheri R. Colberg and published by American Diabetes Association. This book was released on 2013-05-30 with total page 554 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical movement has a positive effect on physical fitness, morbidity, and mortality in individuals with diabetes. Although exercise has long been considered a cornerstone of diabetes management, many health care providers fail to prescribe it. In addition, many fitness professionals may be unaware of the complexities of including physical activity in the management of diabetes. Giving patients or clients a full exercise prescription that take other chronic conditions commonly accompanying diabetes into account may be too time-consuming for or beyond the expertise of many health care and fitness professionals. The purpose of this book is to cover the recommended types and quantities of physical activities that can and should be undertaken by all individuals with any type of diabetes, along with precautions related to medication use and diabetes-related health complications. Medications used to control diabetes should augment lifestyle improvements like increased daily physical activity rather than replace them. Up until now, professional books with exercise information and prescriptions were not timely or interactive enough to easily provide busy professionals with access to the latest recommendations for each unique patient. However, simply instructing patients to “exercise more” is frequently not motivating or informative enough to get them regularly or safely active. This book is changing all that with its up-to-date and easy-to-prescribe exercise and physical activity recommendations and relevant case studies. Read and learn to quickly prescribe effective and appropriate exercise to everyone.
