People often discuss the importance of removing, or “flushing out,” lactic acid from the blood after intense exercise to ...
Creatine has gotten a lot of attention as an aid in building muscle and strength, but can cyclists actually benefit?
This movement is amplified by ATP hydrolysis into ADP (adenosine diphosphate), which releases an inorganic phosphate. Each ATP binding/hydrolysis/release cycle advances the helicase one "step ...
When your body uses ATP for energy, it loses a phosphate group and becomes adenosine diphosphate. Therefore, when your body needs a quick source of energy, creatine lends its phosphate to ADP and ...
This study showed that ingestion of 30 g erythritol causes a ~1000-fold rise in plasma erythritol levels (from ~3.75 µmol/L to ~6480 µmol/L), associated with significantly increased platelet ...
The myosin motor cycle consists of concurrent chemical and mechanical transitions. When attached to actin, hydrolyzed ATP products, adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and phosphate, are successively released ...
Often, people with fatigue have a decreased supply of adenosine diphosphate (ADP), an intracellular “messenger” involved in energy metabolism. Translation: There’s not enough “spark” in the engine.
