Total Energy Intake (individual considerations and sport considerations)
Macro intake CHO - general other shit
Macronutrient. intake (CHO) - Acute effect of endurance exercise
Macro - blood glucose levels with training
High vs low CHo diets in marathoon runners study
Glycemic index What can influence the GI of a food
-Pure glucose is that standard reference (100)
- biochemical structure of the CHO
- the absorption process
- size of the food particle
- congestion of fat fibre or protein
Glycemic index and load
Foods with high glycemic index fast response to blood glucose values
-average plasma is 6 if you injest lots of cho like gummy bears there is a sharp spike in blood glucose cause body releases insulin to reduce those levels to normal but sometimes the insulin being released cause a rapid drop in glucose which can result in glucose levels below where you started and this mainly occurs when you eat up to an hour before exercise, neveer want to start with low glucose
- can monitor it by eating a little less maintain reponse rather than sharp drop off
- ideally, start the race with the highest blood glucose possible. Eat gummy bears 30 minutes before as soon as you start to exercise, epinephrine release stops from being released; then you get to maintain blood glucose for longer periods of time
Glycemic index - values
General CHO intake guidelines
CHO days before competition
5-7 days of supercompensation is not always feasbile
if each g of CHO is stores with 2-3 grames of water there is a balence between whats the most advanagoues thing like for a sprinter the glycogen or the weight
Carb loading
Potential issues with classical supercompensation
Men vs Women
why might glycogen stores be different in men vs women
CHO loading - muscle vs liver glycogen
-Muscle glycogen is often super compensated before full recovery of liver glycogen ie if boh are depleted than muscle will fill faster
fructorse fruits and honey vs glucose like pasta
- fructose can lead to slower muscle glycogen but similar liver glycogen replenishment so if you want CHO fast then get glucose
CHO hours before comp
CHO during comp
Cho during comp - what is the exception to fructose
CHO during comp - what is the maximal amoutn of intake
70g/hr - the max you would ever want to digest intake during comp like a 1-litre sports drink, 600ml of cola etc. ACSM recommends .7g/kg/hr
CHO intake after exercise
WHy CHO load after comp?
What affects the rate of glycogen syntheiss
CHO intake after exercise - timing
