Delivery of OxygenChapter 5 in Text p. 117 Chapter 5 in Text p. 117 (Malpeli et al, 2008)(Malpeli et al, 2008)

Oxygen DeficitOxygen Deficit

The period during exercise where the O2 SUPPLIED to the MUSCLE is BELOW that required to produce all of the ATP aerobically.

Examples: At start of exercise. Periods during aerobic exercise where intensity exceeds 85%, Eg:

riding up a hill or in a big gear, surging away from an opponent. The lactic acid system will produce the extra ATP required (aerobic still dominant)

The size of the oxygen deficit is determined by the intensity of the activity. Consider light vs heavy exercise

Steady StateSteady State

STEADY STATE:The point during exercise when oxygen supply to muscle equals oxygen requirements (to produce ATP aerobically).

Indicated by a plateau in hr, Q, SV and VO2 Dominant energy system: aerobic O2 supply = O2 consumption Endurance athletes with a higher LIP will be able to steady state at

a higher intensity, delaying use of lactic acid system and accum. of H+, ADP + Pi

Heart Rate and IntensityHeart Rate and Intensity

Oxygen DebtOxygen DebtWhen there is insufficient oxygen delivered to, and taken up by the muscle, the anaerobic energy systems will supply the bulk of ATP.

OXYGEN DEBT: The amount of exercise consumed after exercise (during

recovery) that is over the level consumed during rest. The size of the O2 Debt is dependant on the size of the

O2 Deficit and the type / length of recovery used.The following occurs during EPOC: Resynthesise ATP and PCr Resyntheisie lactate to glycogen (cori cycle) Oxidise lactate Restore oxygen to myoglobin See Fig. 5.7 on p.123.

Heart Rate and Oxygen consumptionHeart Rate and Oxygen consumption

When exercising; Our heart rate increases to meet the

oxygen demands for the working muscles.

The relationship between HR and oxygen consumption is linear.

Trained athletes are able to utilise their oxygen uptake more efficiently than non trained people.

Trained athletes VO2 will be lower at submax intensity and higher at max intensities.

See fig 5.3 p.119

Oxygen Deficit and Debt During Light-Moderate and Heavy Exercise

What is EPOC?

Another term used for the recovery oxygen consumption is Excess Post-exercise Oxygen Consumption EPOC)

The difference between Oxygen Debt and Oxygen Deficit Oxygen deficit – is the process of getting

into debt Oxygen debt – how much oxygen needs

to be repaid.

Oxygen Uptake during Recovery

Light exercise rapidly attains steady-rate and small oxygen deficit.

Moderate to heavy takes longer to reach steady-rate & oxygen deficit considerably larger.
