Effect of Exercise on Skeletal Muscle Metabolism / 中国组织工程研究

ABSTRACT

Influenced by the intensity, volume of exercise, the basic metabolic features of skeletal muscle are changed to such structural and functional adaptations as there are increases in the amount of contractile components, muscle glycogen and myoglobin, in the volume and quantity of mitochondria and in the density of capillary in skeletal muscle, which result in enhanced aerobic metabolism, contraction efficiency and prolonged time defore failure. It is also pointed out that the structural changes and decrease of function of sarcoplasmic reticula during acute exercise are important reasons for skeletal muscle fatigue , whereas, high- intensity training can improve sarcoplasmic reticulum function and its Ca2＋ -intake rate, so that to improve the physiological efficacy of excitation- contraltion coupling. So it is put forward that anti- resistance training, as a means of exercise therapy, can efficiently increase muscle strength and prevent muscle atrophy.
