# Muscle Fatigue
|
||
|
|
||
|
"decrease of a muscle's ability to maintain tension/power over time"
|
||
|
|
||
|
no oxygen -> that makes lactic acid
|
||
|
|
||
|
lactic acid is short term
|
||
|
|
||
|
fatigue - can no longer preform level of activity
|
||
|
|
||
|
often oxygen debt
|
||
|
|
||
|
recover period, failure / rest
|
||
|
|
||
|
preform glycolysis, liver breaks down lactic acid into glucose USING ATP
|
||
|
(only works in rest period)
|
||
|
cori cycle
|
||
|
|
||
|
muscles have different fiber types - therefore has different fatigue
|
||
|
* type I - slow oxidative
|
||
|
* type IIa - fast oxidative
|
||
|
* type IIx - fast glycotic
|
||
|
|
||
|
all muscles have all fivers, density is the key differentiators
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Slow oxidative Muscle Fibers (Type I)
|
||
|
* "slow twitch"
|
||
|
* works in oxygen, and moves slowly
|
||
|
* structural characteristics
|
||
|
* small muscle diameter
|
||
|
* more vascularity/high capillary density + high mitochondria density -> aerobic!
|
||
|
* Metabolic characteristics!
|
||
|
* take three times longer to contract ( slowest of all fibers) -> sustained movement (fatigue resistant)
|
||
|
* impulse to move is 3 times slower than others
|
||
|
* contains myoglobin -> stores oxygen (short term)
|
||
|
* function
|
||
|
* first muscle fibers to be recruited (low power)
|
||
|
* run marathons (can be used for hour+)
|
||
|
* anti-gravity + posture muscles
|
||
|
* basically hard to wear out. the marathon muscle
|
||
|
|
||
|
## fast oxidative fibers (type IIa)
|
||
|
* structural characteristics
|
||
|
* humans largest diameter muscle fiber
|
||
|
* highly vascularizaion + high density density of mitochondria -> aerobic!
|
||
|
* high density of muscle glycogen / some myoglobin
|
||
|
* Metabolic characteristics
|
||
|
* **can** utilize **anaerobic respiration**
|
||
|
* glycolysis
|
||
|
* creatine phosphate to ADP = some ATP
|
||
|
* can add some extra fatigue resistance to the muscle
|
||
|
* fast contractility -> moderate fatigue resistance
|
||
|
* function
|
||
|
* 2nd recruitment order -> moderate power
|
||
|
* walking/sprinting (longer than one minute, shorter than 30 minutes)
|
||
|
## Fast Glycolytic (Type IIx)
|
||
|
* Structural Characteristics
|
||
|
* intermediate diameter (humans)
|
||
|
* "white fibers" -> paleish pink
|
||
|
* very little vascularity , mitochondria -> almost no aerobic respiration
|
||
|
* high muscle glycogen / little to no myoglobin
|
||
|
* use as much energy as fast as possible
|
||
|
* metabolic characteristics
|
||
|
* primary anaerobic
|
||
|
* Glycolysis
|
||
|
* Creatine phosphate + ADP = some ATP
|
||
|
* Fastest Contractily -> Lowest fatigue resistance
|
||
|
* makes some ATP quickly -> uses it much faster
|
||
|
* function
|
||
|
* 3rd recruitment order -> highest power
|
||
|
* heavy weight training / burst power (less than 60 sec)
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Changes in density
|
||
|
* genetics + enviornmental stress
|
||
|
* hypertrophy vs atrophy
|
||
|
* changes density of muscles
|
||
|
* endurance exercise (trend to type Ia)
|
||
|
* angiogenesis (increase amount of blood vessles to the muscles)
|
||
|
* increase myoglobin + mitochondria
|
||
|
* resistance exercise (trend to type II's)
|
||
|
* damage leads to increase in mass
|
||
|
* literally split muscle fibers -> repaired bigger
|
||
|
* increase in myofibrils )size and number)
|
||
|
* increase in glysosomes (store glycogen))
|
||
|
* strengthens Connective Tissue, tendons, and bones
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
basically as you train, the muscles work on making it easier by handling those
|
||
|
|
||
|
muscle memory: going back to state of athletic state, enviornmental stress
