1 BS277 Biology of Muscle Fatigue Dominic Micklewright, PhD. Lecturer, Centre for Sports & Exercise Science Department of Biological Sciences University of Essex 2 3 What is the cause of fatigue 4 Some Key Principles 1. Sports Science is multidisciplinary which has resulted in different definitions and explanations of fatigue: – PHYSIOLOGICAL – BIOCHEMICAL – BIOMECHANICAL – PSYCHOLOGICAL – NEUROLOGICAL 5 Some Key Principles 2. Reductionist approaches: – Conceptual → Mechanistic (Orange peeling) – Macro → Micro – Reductionism limitations due to misinterpretation of the hierarchy of science e.g. particle physics, physics, molecular biology…..psychology, social science 6 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 350 400 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 Blood Lactate Concentration (mM) Po we r O ut pu t ( W ) Some Key Principles 3.

Task dependency: – Open vs. Closed Loop Exercise – Prolonged vs. High Int/Short Duration – Contraction type (Conc. v Ecc.; Isometric vs. Isotonic) – Mode: run vs. cycle vs. row vs. throw etc. 9 Some Key Principles CENTRAL FATIGUE Upstream of anterior horn cell CNS 5. Peripheral vs. Central Fatigue: PERIPHERAL FATIGUE Downstream of anterior horn cell PNS & Muscle 10 Some Key Principles 6. The concept of maximal: – Is maximal really obtainable? – Max in vivo muscle contraction < max. in vitro muscle contractions. – Pacing / teleoanticipation evident in so called maximal and supramaximal exercise tasks. – Maximal ‘effort’ is an entirely different concept 11 The Models of Fatigue CV / Anaerobic Model Energy Supply / Depletion Model FATIGUE Neuromuscula r Model Biomechanica l Model Thermoregulatory Model Psychological Model Central Governor / Complex Systems Model 12 Synopsis CV / Anaerobic Model Performance limited by: – Ability of the CV system to supply oxygenated blood to the muscles. – Ability of the CV system to remove metabolites 13 CV / ANAEROBIC FATIGUE Cardiac Output CO = HR x SV ↓CO … ↓ muscle blood flow A-V O2 diff did not reach max at point of fatigue therefore CO not the sole cause of fatigue (Gonzalez-Alonso & Calbert, 2003) Red Blood Cells EPO & Blood doping found to ↑ RBC count ↑ Cycling performance …but dangerous (Hanin & Gore, 2001) Muscle Blood Flow -ive linear relationship between muscle blood flow and power output (Saltin et al, 1998) Oxygen Uptake Mitochondria size and density (Hoopler & Fluck, 2003) Capillarisation (Pringle et al., 2003) Myoglobin capacity (Hoopler & Fluck, 2003) Aerobic enzyme activity (Hoopler & Fluck, 2003) Lac & H+ Removal AT occurs at a higher % of VO2MAX among trained (Lucia et al. 2003) Lac production-removal imbalance causes: ↓ intramuscular pH ↓ enzyme activity (PFK) ↓ myoglobin O2 capacity ↑ pain receptor activity 14 Synopsis Energy Supply / Depletion Model Fatigue due to : – Inadequate supply of ATP to the muscle. – Inadequate depletion of endogenous substrates. 15 ENERGY SUPPLY / DEPLETION McCardle’s Disease Metabolic myopathy affects 1/100K ↓Capacity to store glycogen Weakness & pain after exercise Suggests [glycogen] causes fatigue ATP Production Failure to supply ATP via various metabolic pathways Glycolysis & lipolysis (Shulman & Rothman, 2001) But…. Intramuscular ATP never below 40% even at fatigue (Green, 1997) Is [ATP] an afferent signal? Depletion vs. Supply Depletion assumes fatigue is a direct rather than indirect result of: ↓Muscle/liver glycogen ↓Blood glucose ↓Phosphocreatine 60% & 86% ↓ in gastroc glycogen depletion after 90-min running among rats. (Gigli & Bussman, 2002) Not fully depleted so cannot be sole cause of fatigue Rate of CH2O Oxidation Since muscle fatigue not solely due to availability of CH2O or ATP some have concluded that rate of muscle CH2O oxidation is more important (Noakes et al. 2000) 16 Synopsis Neuromuscular Model Fatigue due to : – Inhibition of the neuromuscular pathway. – Reduction in central neural drive. – Reduction in responsiveness of the muscle to action potentials. – Failure of excitation-contraction coupling mechanisms. “Functions involved in muscle excitation, recruitment and contraction are what limit performance.” (Noakes, 2000) 17 NEURO MUSCULAR MODEL Methods (Central vs. Peripheral Determination) Electromyography (EMG) muscle electrical activity: Integrated EMG = Filtered & smoothed EMG Root Mean Squared (RMS) = global EMG signal M-Wave = compound action potential from brain. Muscle Twitch Interpolation (MTI) – compare Max Cont. between locally twitched vs. voluntary twitched. Central Activation Theory Lower central activation found among young and old using MTI during isometric induced fatigue (Stackhouse et al, 2001). ↓Dopamine ↑5HT during prolonged exercise in rats (Bailey et al., 1993) ↑Dop/5HT ratio may ↓central activation due to lower arousal, motivation & NM coordination. Nutritional CH2O may also attenuate changes in ratio (Davis et al., 2000) NM Propagation Theory 10%↓ MVC during prolonged cycling not due to central activation (Millet et al., 2003) Sarcolemma ↓Na+, K+ membrane gradient occur during prolonged cycling resulting in ↓action potential i.e. Na+/K+ muscle pump (Fowels et al, 2002) α-Motor Neurone Muscle receptors less responsive when ↑H+, ↓pH (Lepers et al., 2000) Time to fatigue ↑ in force vs. positioning task. Task dependency? (Hunter et al., 2004) 18 Methods (Central vs. Peripheral Determination) Electromyography (EMG) muscle electrical activity: Integrated EMG = Filtered & smoothed EMG Root Mean Squared (RMS) = global EMG signal M-Wave = compound action potential from brain. Muscle Twitch Interpolation (MTI) – compare Max Cont. between locally twitched vs. voluntary twitched. Central Activation Theory Lower central activation found among young and old using MTI during isometric induced fatigue (Stackhouse et al, 2001). ↓Dopamine ↑5HT during prolonged exercise in rats (Bailey et al., 1993) ↑Dop/5HT ratio may ↓central activation due to lower arousal, motivation & NM coordination.

Task dependency? (Hunter et al., 2004) NEURO MUSCULAR MODEL Muscle Power / Peripheral Failure Theory Fatigue occurs within muscle by alteration of the coupling mechanism between the action potential and the contractile proteins. (Hill et al., 2001) Fatigue of a twitched muscle associated with ↓CA+ from sarcoplasmic reticulum which has –ive effect on excitation-contraction coupling process. Reduced CA+ return from contractile proteins may also cause ↑muscle relaxation / fatigue (McKenna et al, 1996). After first few minutes low threshold motor units fatigue but are replacedby high threshold units (Westgaard & De Luca, 1999). Suggests i) individual motor units susceptible to fatigue ii) protective mechanism to prevent catastrophic failure. Early peripheral fatigue followed by later central fatigue is a safety mechanism to prevent catastrophic failure e.g. loss of ATP (St Clair Gibson et al, 2001) 19 Synopsis Biomechanical Model Fatigue due to a reduction in mechanical efficiency and economy which provokes… – ↑ CV system demand (CV model) – ↑ Energy consumption (Energy S/D model) – ↑ Metabolite production (Anaerobic model) – ↑ Core temperature (Thermoregulatory model) 20 BIOMECH. MODEL Efficiency of Motion ↓Efficiency coincides with ↑ VO2 (Passfield & Doust, 2000) ↓MVC (Lucia et al., 2002). Better economy/efficiency reported for pro cyclists (Lucia et al., 2002) and Kenya runners (Weston et al., 2000) EMG vs. MRI Studies RMS/VO2 ratio declines faster in endurances vs. non-trained subjects (Hug et al., 2004) EMG studies do not reveal diffs. in the recruitment of fibre type. MRI suggests ↑FT recruit cycling @ >60% VO2MAX (Saunders & Evans, 2000) Synergists & antagonists may compensate for fatiguing agonsists (Hunter et al., 2002) Stretch/Shortening Cycle Combined action of muscle to produce efficient movement from lengthening (ecc) & shortening (coc.). ↑ Force due to: ↑elastic force in tendons/ligs (Komi, 2000) ↑tx time from stretch to contract (Davis & Bailey, 1997) Golgi tendon organ/ muscle spindle role as afferent signal? Mechanisms of Efficiency Task type x muscle property interaction e.g. Optimal cycling cadence for elite 80-90 but for amateur 70-80 (Takaishi et al., 1996). Maybe due to… ↑cardiac output, muscle blood flow, muscle O2 uptake, lac removal (Gotshall, 1996). Faster cadence reduces fast twitch fibre recruitment which are less efficient than slow twitch fibres (Takeshi et al., 1998) 21 BIOMECH. EFFICIENCY OF MOTION Muscle Fibre Composition Intermusc. Coordn. (Stretch/Shortening) Muscle Activation Rate (e.g. cadence) Energy consumption / heat generation O2 consumption and uptake Accumulation of metabolite % Type I / II recruitment pattern Adapted from Abbiss & Laursen, 2005) 22 Synopsis Thermoregulatory Model Fatigue due to… – Reaching a critical core body temperature – ↑ Core, muscle and skin temp places demands on other physiological systems/models… – CV, anaerobic, energetics, psychological 23 Central Thermoregulation Exhaustion when cycling in heat occurred at 39.5°C (Nielson et al., 1993) but… Tucker et al., 2004 saw highest power when core body temp greatest (39°C). ∴ core temp not sole cause of fatigue. Anticipation? THERMO. MODEL Thermoregulation • Core body temp = heat production (muscle metabolism) – heat removal (convection, conduction, radiation, evapouration). • Core body temp can ↑ 1°C every 5-7 min but cannot be tolerated @ >40°C for prolonged periods. Exercise limited by heat production/dissipation balance.↑ • Environmental temp & hypertherma known to have –ive effect on performance e.g. mean PO ↓6.5% when environ. Raised from 23-32°C (Tatterson et al., 2000). Peripheral Central Hypothalamus Thermo- receptors Sweat, Blood Flow Peripheral Central Hypothalamus Thermo- receptors Sweat, Blood Flow Periph. Thermoregulation Sweating and dissipation of heat have ↑CV demand due to supplying skin as well as muscles with blood (Nybo et al., 2001). Skin flow plateaus but core temp continues to rise during exercise placing extra CV demand (Nielsen et al., (1997) Fatigue related to extra CV demand imposed by periph theromoregulatory changes 24 Synopsis Psychological Model Fatigue due to psychological factors which… – ↓ Central activation & motivation – ↑ Perceived exertion & fatigue 25 PSYCHOL. MODEL Rating of Perceived Exertion The way peripheral sensations associated with exercise are perceived. Borg scale, OMNI scale. RPE rise with skin temp & HR (Amada-da- silva, 2004) Emotion & Drive Fatigue is an emotion or a ‘subjective feeling’ state dependent upon physiological and situational environmental factors. Feelings of fatigue may be related to motivation, anxiety, arousal and confidence. Consciousness We are not consciously aware of specific physiological functions e.g. muscle blood flow, blood pressure, glycogen depletion. RPE is conscious awareness based on many afferent sensations. Information Processing Pacing strategies determined by information processing between the brain and physiological systems. Knowledge of distance or time during an event provides crucial input to monitor and determine overall pacing strategy (St Clair Gibson et al, 2006). - internal clock - endpoint knowledge - feedback 26 Synopsis Central Governor / Complex Systems Model Fatigue due to a central governor maintaining homeostasis through… – Integration of peripheral afferent signals and exogenous reference signals – Determine efferent muscular control – Facilitates concepts of teleoanticipation, pacing and perceived exertion. – Differentiates between conscious and subconscious processes. 27 Critique of Peripheral Fatigue – Peripheral fatigue model predicts that exercise always terminates at an absolute, temporarily irreversible end point. – Linear system (power output a direct consequence of input variable e.g. [Bla] – Therefore fatigue and the sensation of fatigue) must coincide with the peripheral physiological input variable. – Often they often do not… 28 Critique of Peripheral Fatigue – Complete substrate depletion at fatigue only found during in vitro studies (Lamb, 1999) but not during in vivo where there is an intact CNS (St Clair-Gibson, 2001) – Not a single study has found a direct relationship between perceptions of exertion and physiological variables. Opposite found in chronic fatigue patients (rest yet feel fatigued). – Physiological factors do not coincide with fatigue… 29 Critique of Peripheral Fatigue – Intramuscular ATP never below 40% even at fatigue (Green, 1997) – 60% & 86% ↓ in gastroc glycogen depletion after 90-min running among rats. (Gigli & Bussman, 2002) – A-V O2 diff did not reach max at point of fatigue therefore CO not the sole cause of fatigue (Gonzalez-Alonso & Calbert, 2003) – [Lac] does not peak until up to 15 mins after exercise. 30 Evidence for Central Governor – Fatigue not caused by peripheral factors by by reduced neural command by the brain (Green, 1997) – Fluctuations in power output (Tucker et al., 2006) and heart rate during exercise (Palmer et al., 1994) more representative of a homeostat system of control rather than a linear model. – Presense of homeostasis in all organ functions helps support model. 31 Evidence for Central Governor – Homeostatic regulation by the CNS could account for continually changing pattern of muscle recruitment during exercise. – Homeostatic control based on a complex black box calculation (Ulmer, 1996) derived from the intergration of multiple afferent signals (Lambert et al., 2005) e.g. – Rauch et al. (2005) signalling role of muscle glycogen concentration during prolonged cycling. 32 Empirical & Theoretical Context CENTRAL GOVERNOR MUSCLE CONTRACTION PERIPHERAL ORGANS PERIPHERAL FATIGUE CENTRAL FATIGUE 33 INITIAL PACE DURING FIRST MOMENTS (FEED-FORWARD) SUBSEQUENTPACING (TELEOANTICIPATION) 1.

St Clair Gibson, Lamber, Rauch et al., 2006 47 PURPOSE OF THE STUDY To examine how previous experience influences cyclists’ perceptions of time, distance and exertion. HYPOTHESIS Cyclists who train for time trials without performance feedback will develop a more accurate perception of time, distance and exertion than those who depend on cycle computers. 48 Design & Participants • Two way between & within-subjects experimental design used. • 29 cyclists recruited from Cape Town cycling clubs. • Randomly allocated to conditions. • Not matched but inclusion / exclusion criteria used. 49 Fig 2.

Cycle computers are convenient but... • Over dependence on cycle computers during training may lead to understated perceptions of time and distance… • …maybe because attention is partially diverted away from natural sensations towards the computer…which may affect perceptual learning. 65 Conclusions • Training without a cycle computer may help to develop a better natural feel for time and distance, perhaps due to attentional focus. • Potentially this may help them to make better judgements when they do use a cycle computer… • …because of an enhanced feel for proximity to the endpoint resulting in a less conservative pacing strategy. 66 67 68 PERFORMANCE BELIEF UNCERTAINTY (BLIND) 20 KM TT #1 BLIND 20 KM TT #4 TRUE FEEDBACK 20 KM TT #3 BLIND 20 KM TT #2 BLIND PERFORMANCE BELIEF CERTAINTY (TRUE) 20 KM TT #1 TRUE FEEDBACK 20 KM TT #4 TRUE FEEDBACK 20 KM TT #3 BLIND 20 KM TT #2 TRUE FEEDBACK PERFORMANCE BELIEF CERTAINTY (FALSE) 20 KM TT #1 FALSE FEEDBACK +5% 20 KM TT #4 TRUE FEEDBACK 20 KM TT #3 BLIND 20 KM TT #2 FALSE FEEDBACK +5% FAMILIARISATION / CONDITIONING TRIALS BLIND TRIALS PERFORMANCE TRIALS 69 PERFORMANCE BELIEF UNCERTAINTY (BLIND) 20 KM TT #1 BLIND 20 KM TT #4 TRUE FEEDBACK 20 KM TT #3 BLIND 20 KM TT #2 BLIND PERFORMANCE BELIEF CERTAINTY (TRUE) 20 KM TT #1 TRUE FEEDBACK 20 KM TT #4 TRUE FEEDBACK 20 KM TT #3 BLIND 20 KM TT #2 TRUE FEEDBACK PERFORMANCE BELIEF CERTAINTY (FALSE) 20 KM TT #1 FALSE FEEDBACK +5% 20 KM TT #4 TRUE FEEDBACK 20 KM TT #3 BLIND 20 KM TT #2 FALSE FEEDBACK +5% FAMILIARISATION / CONDITIONING TRIALS BLIND TRIALS PERFORMANCE TRIALS 70 Condition-by-Trial Performance Outcomes Note – Comparisons made using a 2-way between- & within-subjects ANOVA Cadence Trial Main Effect F (3,63) = 2.4, p > 0.05 Condition Main Effect F (2,21) = 0.9, p > 0.05 Trial-by-Condition Interaction F (6,63) = 2.8, p < 0.05 Power Trial Main Effect F (3,69) = 8.9, p < 0.001 Condition Main Effect F (2,23) = 6.1, p < 0.01 Trial-by-Condition Interaction F (6,69) = 2.4, p < 0.05 Speed Trial Main Effect F (3,69) = 6.3, p < 0.005 Condition Main Effect F (2,23) = 4.5, p < 0.05 Trial-by-Condition Interaction F (6,69) = 2.6, p < 0.05 71 Cadence Condion-by-Trial Interaction 80 85 90 95 100 105 110 115 120 Trial 1 (Fam/Cond) Trial 2 (Fam/Cond) Trial 3 (Blind) Trial 4 (Feedback) Experimental Trial A v e r ag e C a d e n c e (r pm ) Blind Condition (n=10) Feedback Condition (n=11) False Feedback Condition (n=10) Note – Comparisons made using a 2-way between- & within-subjects ANOVA 72 Power Condion-by-Trial Interaction Note – Comparisons made using a 2-way between- & within-subjects ANOVA 140 155 170 185 200 215 230 245 260 275 290 305 320 335 350 Trial 1 (Fam/Cond) Trial 2 (Fam/Cond) Trial 3 (Blind) Trial 4 (Feedback) Experimental Trial Av er ag e Po w er (W ) Blind Condition (n=10) Feedback Condition (n=11) False Feedback Condition (n=10) 73 Speed Condion-by-Trial Interaction Note – Comparisons made using a 2-way between- & within-subjects ANOVA 28 30 32 34 36 38 40 42 Trial 1 (Fam/Cond) Trial 2 (Fam/Cond) Trial 3 (Blind) Trial 4 (Feedback) Experimental Trial Av er ag e Sp ee d (k m /h ) Blind Condition (n=10) Feedback Condition (n=11) False Feedback Condition (n=10) 74 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Time Trial Progression Point R at in g of P er ce iv ed E xe rt io n Blind Trial (T3) Feedback Trial (T4) RPE: Blind Group 75 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Time Trial Progression Point Ra tin g of P er ce iv ed E xe rti on Blind Trial (T3) Feedback Trial (T4) RPE: FeedbackGroup 76 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 20% 40% 60% 80% 100% Time Trial Progression Point R a tin g of P er ce iv ed E xe rti on Blind Trial (T3) Feedback Trial (T4) RPE: False Feedback Group 77 Conclusions – Central governor provides and alternative explanation of fatigue that covers some of the limitations of peripheral models. – No single model provides an adequate account of fatigue. – Recent work seems to have focused on interdisciplinary and integrative approaches to the ‘fatigue’ quagmire. 78 BS277 Biology of Muscle Fatigue Dominic Micklewright, PhD.
