The point at which lactate production exceeds the rate of clearance and results in a more exponential increase in blood lactate concentration is known as _______

lactate threshold

100

The enzyme involved in putting carbohydrates into storage as glycogen

Glycogen synthase

This method for measuring energy expenditure works well for accurately accessing total daily energy expenditure in free-living settings but can be expensive

doubly-labeled water
200

Subtracting the resting energy expenditure from the total energy expended during an activity gives this

Net mechanical efficiency

200

During fatty acid synthesis, this substance inhibits CAT 1 activity, thus decreasing fatty acid oxidation

Malonyl-CoA

200

To convert from lbs to kg, divide lbs by this number

2.2

200

The units for relative VO2max

ml O2/kg/min

300

This is the most significant contributor to basal metabolic rate

Fat free mass

A runner with better running economy will use less oxygen at the same absolute exercise intensity (T or F).

True

300

The effect of exercise training on catecholamine and cortisol response during submaximal exercise

Decrease

300

This is the equivalent resting oxygen cost

3.5 ml/kg/min

This is the correct formula for calculating the Respiratory Exchange Ratio.

RER = VCO2/VO2

400

This term refers to the resistance impeding forward progress, such as with swimming

phosphorylase a

400

Each L of oxygen consumed yields this many kcals expended

5 kcals

400

The absolute VO2max for an 92kg runner is 6L. His relative VO2max is _______

65.2 ml/kg/min

500

This term refers to the extra oxygen consumed after exercise in the recovery period, necessary to replenish ATP/PCr stores, convert lactate to glycogen, and clear CO2

EPOC

500

This term refers to the greater oxygen demand compared to the actual amount of oxygen consumed at the onset of exercise

oxygen deficit

500

This secondary messenger is stimulated by epinephrine and activates the enzyme that breaks down glycogen

cyclic AMP

500

1 Watt represents this many kgm/min

6.12 kgm/min
