  1. 4. This macronutrient tends to supply ~50% of the energy requirement during light and moderate exercise.

  3. 8. Glycogen depletion leads to increased protein _________.
  4. 11. The RQ is the ratio of carbon dioxide produced and _________ consumed.
  5. 12. When CHO is low exercise intensity tends to do this.

  1. 1. Breakdown of fat.
  2. 2. Women tend to derive a smaller proportion of energy from this macronutrient during aerobic exercise.
  3. 3. After training, energy needs during the same absolute submaximal exercise intensity tends to do this.
  4. 6. After ~1hour of intense exercise, only ~55% of this is depleted in the liver.
  5. 7. PCr and this phosphate containing group supply most of the energy for high intensity exercise.
  6. 9. Source of glucose storage in the body (not the muscles).
  7. 10. As glucose levels fall, this macronutrient tends to provide more energy, even though is is not desirable.
  8. 13. Hormone that is released more after you eat a meal.
