direct calorimetry
indirect calorimetry
respiratory quotient
respiratory exchange ratio
co2 released, oxygen consumed
0.78 to 0.80
rate at which the body expends energy at rest and during exercise
basal metabolic rate
resting metabolic rate
total daily energy expenditure
60-75% RMR and BMR
15-30% thermic effect of physical activity
10% thermic effect of feeding
the higher the BMR
the higher the BMR
BMR gradually decreases
BMR increases
the higher the BMR
thyroxine
epinephrine
the higher the BMR
the maximal capacity for oxygen consumption by the body during maximal exertion
the rate at which lactate production exceeds lactate clearance
high maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max)
high lactate threshold
high economy of effort
high percentage of slow-twitch muscle fibers
excess post oxygen consumption
the total oxygen consumed following exercise in excess of a baseline level
lag time
anaerobic contribution to exercise
increase in VO2 uptake
lasts 1-3 minutes
oxygen deficit
excess post oxygen consumption
Fast component
Slow component
restoration of ATP and CP stores
oxidation of lactate
post exercise hormonal response
increased heart and respiration rates
phosphocreatine depletion
glycogen depletion
neuromuscular fatigue
