KIN 6046 – Clinical Exercise Physiology and Metabolism Name and explain what uses the ATP in skeletal muscle during exercise. Explain in detail the names of each enzyme and for what they use ATP, then explain how each of these enzymes are activated to start using ATP. Next, explain in detail how the ATP is provided (through which energy systems) for 30 seconds of very high workload cycling if you are pedaling as hard as you possibly can (assuming you are fully warmed up when you start). Discuss how each of the energy systems are used from 0-10 sec, 10-20 sec, and 20-30 seconds. How is each system activated?

KIN 6026 – Sport and Exercise Nutrition for Peak Performance In class, we compared two, contrasting, models describing the development of obesity – the Carbohydrate-Insulin Model (CIM) and the Energy-Balance Model (EBM). Both models have merit, but please state a case for either CIM or the EBM as the primary explanation for the rise of obesity rates in the U.S. Very briefly provide the primary point of each the CIM and EBM. State how either the CIM or the EBM explains the physiological changes that lead to excessive weight gain. Consider and discuss any of the following: Hormonal responses to dietary intake – macronutrient composition, portions, timing. Types of carbohydrate (starches, sugars, fiber) and their impact on blood glucose and insulin. Energy storage and subsequent relationship to appetite and energy expenditure. Roles of nutrient and caloric density in total energy intake. Describe 2-3 concomitant dietary interventions (recommendations) for the selected model – e.g., low-carb/high fat, low-GI, low-fat, low-calorie, etc. Discuss how these interventions improve health or performance (particularly compared to the other recommendations). Support your answer with evidence from the literature.
