Bioenergetics & Exercise Metabolism Flashcards
What is bioenergetics?
Study of energy in the human body
What is metabolism ?
Process in which nutrients are acquired, transported, used, and disposed of by the body
What is aerobic ?
Requires oxygen
What is anaerobic?
Without oxygen
What is adenosine triphosphate (ATP)?
Energy storage and transfer unit within cells
What is anaerobic threshold?
Where the body can no longer produce enough energy with normal oxygen intake
What is excess post oxygen consumption (EPOC)?
Elevation of metabolism after exercise
What 3 types are in the energy system?
Oxidative system
Glycolysis
ATP-PC
What happens in oxidative system?
Aerobic glycolysis
Krebs cycle
Electron transport chain
Long term energy
What happens in glycolysis?
Anaerobic
Moderate to high intensifying
Up to 30-50 seconds
What happens in ATP-PC?
Anaerobic
High intensity
Lasts 10-15 seconds
