From what I understand, our metabolism has not changed in the last 40,000 years. How would you know? 40,000 years and NO changes? We still are wired for fight or flight. We still produce adrenaline in stressful situations for instance. Two different scenarios not necessarily equitable. Were homo sapiens sharing the planet with saber tooth tigers? This would fall into the area of anthropology. Did anthropologists educate you to the (lack of) metabolic changes in humans over 40K years? |

It looks like you are disagreeing that glycogen use does not change with intensity. Most certainly does. I am still waiting to see documentation that the body uses fats first. Never said that, mof, just the opposite when considering the initial energy consumption required in human locomotion and movement under an increasing load. This implies a temporal chain of events much like shifting from one fuel tank to another. Not implied, acknowledged. |

Oxygen is not used for fuel; carbohydrates, fats and proteins are fuel. Oxygen does not even enter into the process until the electron transport chain. ATP, the "currency" of energy, is produced before O2 even enters in the equation. Slow Twitch muscle fibres have the ability to use fat as a fuel source, but only during oxygen dependent conditions. Fat cannot be mobilized for energy without the presence of oxygen and carbohydrate. O2, therefore, "fuels" the chemical processes. You make it sound as if the body "burns" the glycogen and then shifts to fat once that is exhausted much like switching to a reserve fuel tank on a plane or a boat. That is just not true. Correct, that is not. Not supported at all. At an RER of 0.85 (which is easy running) the contribution from fats and carbohydrate is about 50:50. Too dependent on the individual to make such a sweeping generalization. Since LA rarely sprints (although I saw him win a field sprint in April!), he rarely uses alactic energy system so he is not a good example really. In reality, we never stop using oxygen even in an all out sprint. Correct again. It is O2 dependent not O2 absolute and O2 independent not O2 absent. |

Google MU. You gotta be kidding me... Why? Your colleagues chastised me for not doing the same with you. Okay I Googled "MU", the first 3 pages gave me nothing that I thought would refer to you. How about a name? How about where you got your education? Mu is my name and my education(s) are both academic and empirical as well they should be. You can look up my papers. PubMed search: Callan, SD. You will find a paper on wrestlers and a couple on hyperoxic training (maybe an abstract only on Nordic skiing) that I was a contributor on. Nice. I have several contributions myself but never claim to be able to professionally discern the credibility and usefulness of scientific study. |

Try "Michael Underwood" and see if it gets you anywhere. Caught again. You're too good, Bob. MU_mmy is a fraud who changes his name and email addy to escape killfiles. He has told some zany whoppers about himself; boasts that on the face of them are simply and literally incredible. Here. Look at some utterly hilarious stuff: http://tinyurl.com/hdex http://www.geocities.com/tanirevek/Roose.html http://tinyurl.com/royd Didn't look, Bob, I just hang Mu head in shame. You may rest assured that there will be no papers with this wacko's name on them. Correct, not a one authored by MU. He has repeatedly asserted that he's unqualified to read scientific papers. Sure am. He regularly claims that faith is a better source of information than logic or science. He's a fundamentalist crazy. Obsessed with MU MU MU MU MU MU MU. Bob, get a grip. Michael |

Is a master's degree in exercise science and 7 years of application enough? Nope,. Throw in a couple of peer reviewed papers for good measure. Sorry, MU seeks and is advised by those who are much better educated, older and authored. |
