Sentences with phrase «aerobic metabolism fuels»

Aerobic metabolism fuels most of the energy needed for long duration activity.

Not exact matches

If you fuel it with sugar, although you may be training the aerobic system, you are not training fat metabolism along with it.

I consider this situation however to be extremely unlikely (and undesirable) because at low levels of exercise fat and / or ketone metabolism would be very active aerobically and at high levels then lactate would become the primary fuel source for the aerobic system.

So the amount of energy that your aerobic metabolism can produce as fuel and the amount energy your muscles can contract with aren't the same thing.

The fuel sources for aerobic cellular metabolism are fats and carbohydrates, with a greater percentage of calories coming from fats at lower intensities.

If you stand up and walk around, you'll probably still be using mostly fats for fuel because your aerobic metabolism can still keep up with demands, but you'll probably also start burning more carbs as your muscles respond to the new demand for action.

According to a study published in 2003 in the «International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism,» increasing the body's blood sugar levels and insulin levels through carbohydrate supplementation can spare glycogen, or stored fuel within muscle tissue, which can lead to better aerobic endurance.

Our speculation is VESPA keeps the athlete «locked into» high level fat metabolism even when concentrated carbohydrates are introduced back into the diet and during fueling and the high insulin sensitivity gained from the physiological shift to the «Fat - Adapted metabolic State» allows the carbs to be quickly and sustainably be converted to energy for only the very peak part of the aerobic spectrum and any surges into the anaerobic spectrum of metabolism.

Higher intensity interval exercise uses both aerobic and anaerobic metabolism (glycolysis) to help generate enough energy to fuel intense efforts.

The good news about aerobic metabolism is that the supply of fuel (body fat) is nearly endless, and you can exercise for many, many hours using this energy system.

A diet lower in carbs and higher in fats fuels a healthy aerobic metabolism and keeps your glycogen in your muscles for when you want to train hard, train long duration, lift heavy, or do all three.
