General Biochemistry Course
This General Biochemistry Course provides a focused overview of skeletal muscle energetics, covering key pathways from phosphocreatine and glycolysis to the citric acid cycle and oxidative phosphorylation. It explores metabolic shifts during rest, sprinting, and endurance activities, along with hormonal and allosteric regulation, essential kinetic principles, and practical lab measurements. Students will gain the ability to interpret data confidently, explain fatigue mechanisms, and discuss physiological adaptations in research, lab settings, and performance biology.

What will I learn?
Gain a practical overview of skeletal muscle energetics in this General Biochemistry Course, from phosphocreatine and glycolysis through the citric acid cycle to oxidative phosphorylation. Learn about metabolic changes during rest, sprints, and endurance, plus hormonal and allosteric regulation, key kinetics, and lab data analysis to confidently interpret results, explain fatigue, and explore adaptations.
Elevify advantages
Develop skills
- Map muscle energy pathways: rapidly link PCr, glycolysis, and TCA for ATP demand.
- Analyze sprint vs endurance metabolism: predict fuel shifts and VO2 responses.
- Decode hormonal control: connect insulin, adrenaline, and Ca2+ to enzyme activity.
- Interpret lab data: turn lactate, PCr, and VO2 values into clear metabolic insights.
- Explain fatigue mechanisms: relate metabolites, pH, and Ca2+ to performance limits.
