7.2 recovery,altitude and heat

Question 1

What does EPOC stand for?

Answer 1

Excess Post-exercise oxygen consumption

Question 2

what stores are depleted at the end of performance?

Answer 2

Oxygen
ATP
PC
Glycogen

Question 3

what increases by the end of performance?

Answer 3

Lactic acid levels —> leads to exhaustion

Question 4

what’s the primary aim of body after exercise?

Answer 4

returning body back to pre-exercise condition.
free blood, muscle and tissues of by-products

Question 5

what energy system does the body use post exercise?

Answer 5

Aerobic energy system for EPOC

Question 6

oxygen deficit?

Answer 6

volume of oxygen required to complete an activity entirely aerobically.

Question 7

stage of oxygen consumption during exercise:

Answer 7

A). Oxygen deficit
B). Oxygen consumption during exercise

Question 8

stage of oxygen consumption post exercise:

Answer 8

C). Fast alactacid component of recovery
D). Slow lactacid component of recovery

Question 9

what effect EPOC?

Answer 9

Epoc alway present and only effected by Exercise intensity and duration

Question 10

EPOC during low intensity exercise?

Answer 10

small O2 deficit
limited use of anaerobic system
(opposite during high intensity)

Question 11

Slow lactacid component of recovery?

Answer 11

Occurs after the fast component of recovery , show volume of O2 needed (5-8 litres) to complete complex and time consuming;
-Removal of lactic acid and replenishment of glycogen
-Provision of energy to maintain ventilation, circulation and body temperature.

Question 12

Fast alactacid component of recovery?

Answer 12

-first stage of recovery
-Accounts for 10% of EPOC
-Show initial volume of Oxygen 1-4litre required

+Replenishes blood and muscle oxygen
*during exercise; O2 dissociates from haemoglobin in blood stream and myoglobin in muscle cells to fuel glycolysis. First minute = resturate blood stream O2 –> haemoglobin and in 3 minutes restoring oxy-myoglobin link in muscle cells.

+Resynthesis ATP and PC store
*during exercise:Muscle cells store ATP and PC = depleted, which replenishes ATP-PC system. first 3 minutes EPOC comtinues –>energy for resyntheis. Phosphagen restored ( within 30 seconds = 50%) for Phosphate to be used with ADP —> ATP and PC

Question 13

What are the jobs of slow alactacid component of recovery to focus on after the first stage?

Answer 13

+Ventilation and Circulation;
-during exercie;
respiratory rate, depth and HR is significantly high to meet demand of
O2.
-post exercise;
they remain elevated but gradually decreases to rest level to maximie
O2 delivery and remove waste product.
