Cycling, Diabetes, and Mitochondria
2:14:30 - 2:23:30 (08:59)
A study compared the mitochondrial health of professional cyclists, fit people, and people with type 2 diabetes, finding that the cyclists had the highest mitochondrial function. The inner workings of mitochondria were also explained, with emphasis on the importance of pyruvate and the electron transport chain in generating ATP.

The conversion of glucose to pyruvate results in the creation of ATP through the electron transport chain process, but efficiency is compromised without enough oxygen.

Summary
The conversion of glucose to pyruvate results in the creation of ATP through the electron transport chain process, but efficiency is compromised without enough oxygen. Aerobic efficiency can be improved through zone two training when the body uses both glucose and fatty acids to create ATP during low-demand periods.
