  2. Things to Know • Be able to identify sources of fat in the diet by type • Be able to explain fat metabolism during exercise • Be able to understand changes in fat metabolism as a result of training • Be able to provide recommendations for fat intake for athletic individuals • Including those on weight restrictive programs

  3. Function • Primary source of energy at rest • Twice as energy dense as other macronutrients • Great storage (Why?) • Provides essential fatty acids • Omega 3 • α-linolenic acid (leafy greens, soy, seafood) • EPA (fish oils) • DHA (fish oils) • Omega 6 • Linoleic acid (sunflower, corn, soy, and peanut oil) • Growing evidence of cardioprotective ability • Fat soluble vitamins require fat • A, D, E, K

  4. Classification • Short (<6), medium (6-12), long (>12) • Absorbed and transported differently • Saturated (no double bonds) vs. unsaturated (one or more double bonds) • Animal fats 40-60% saturated and 30-50% monounsaturated • Plant fats 10-20% saturated rest are mono or polyunsaturated • Configuration • Trans vs. cis • Trans negatively affect blood lipids • Function differently and require different biochemical breakdown • Hydrogenation • Increases saturation

  5. Changes in Dietary Macronutrients in Diet (g)

  6. Changes in Dietary Macronutrients in Diet (%)

  7. Decreased Fat Intake During Weight Restriction

  8. Factors Determining the Use of Fat During Exercise • Training level • Type of exercise • Intensity and duration • Available fat reserves in muscle • Ability to mobilize and transport FA from adipose • Composition of prior meal • Availability of stored glycogen or amount of carbohydrate fed during exercise

  9. Adipose Tissue Lipolysis • ↑ SNA stimulates production of epinephrine • Epinephrine binds to adipose tissue ↑cAMP • ↑cAMP phosphorylates HSL • HSL breaks off two FA from stored TG • MGL breaks off the other • Glycerol transported across adipose into circulation for gluconeogenesis • FFA must cross adipose cell membrane • Passively • Or by, FABP or FAT/CD36 • Circulates in blood bound to albumin • Actively transported across muscle cell

  10. Lipolysis

  11. Ra Glycerol Expresses Lipolysis (40% VO2)

  12. Ra FFA During Exercise (40% VO2)

  13. Ra FFA During Exercise • Initially, Ra FFA may decrease • Due to increased uptake of FFA in muscle • As exercise progresses up to approximately 65% intensity, Ra FFA increases significantly • So much so, that after exercise ceases, the majority of FFA in blood are re-esterified

  14. Hormonal Influence on Lipolysis • Catecholamines are strongest stimulators • Insulin strongest inhibitor • Other hormones that play a role • GH, cortisol, TSH all stimulate lipolysis

  15. Increased Reliance on IMTG After Training?

  16. No Increase in IMTG Use After Training?

  17. Differences in IMTG Use • Differing methodologies • Endurance training vs. resistance training • IMTG is not equally dispersed throughout muscle • Regardless • Increased reliance on glycogen at same absolute intensity suggest • Increased reliance on fat for fuel either from • Adipose or IMTG

  18. As Intensity Increases Energy from Fat Reduced

  19. FFA Transport

  20. Training Increases Fat Utilization

  21. Training Increases Uptake of FFA

  22. Discussion Time • Can you alter substrate usage through diet manipulation? • What effect could this have on increasing or decreasing fat loss? • What recommendations would you say provide for someone wanting to target fat loss? • What does the shift in substrate utilization mean for endurance trained athletes? • What effect does this have on endurance trained athletes at the end of a race? • So based on this what do you think the effect of high fat diets and diet infusion would be?

  23. Fat Oxidation HighestTrained 59-65%Untrained 47-52%

  24. Long Term Fat Diets Does Not Improve Exercise Performance > High CHO Diet

  25. Medium Chain TG • Made available more easily than long chain TG • However, supplementation does not spare muscle glycogen even though contributes approximately 7-8% total energy • Cause GI distress • Expensive

  26. Caffeine Increases Exercise Performance

  27. Caffeine Effects • Caffeine appears to increase plasma catecholamines • While it does effect fat oxidation at rest, it does not impact fat oxidation during exercise • What does this mean? • More on caffeine to come

  28. Carnitine • Doesn’t work • Why?

  29. Fat Recommendations • 20-35% of energy intake • <10% saturated • Remaining coming from monounsaturated and polyunsaturated • Monounsaturated • Olive oil • Canola oil • Polyunsaturated • Soy • Fish • Corn oil • How do you do this since not recommended as g/kg as is the case with CHO and PRO as we will see

  30. Fat Intake and Health • Increasing evidence that athletes may have hyperlipidemic disorders (especially football linemen) • This involves and increased risk after collegiate or pro level play • Why?
