Year 3 Week 4 Physiology
Metabolic regulation during endurance exercise
Aim:
Understand how exercise intensity and duration affect the metabolic regulation of substrate
utilisation during endurance exercise…
(e.g. understand why fat oxidation decreases as exercise intensity increases)
Overview of intensity and duration effects on metabolism
How does the muscle cell regulate whether we predominantly use CHO or fat?
, Does the glucose-fatty acid cycle regulate fuel selection during low intensity exercise
Does the glucose-fatty acid cycle regulate fuel selection during high intensity exercise?
