Ch: 3- Bioenergetic of Exercise and Training Flashcards
The breakdown of large molecules into smaller molecules associated with the release of energy.
Catabolism
Which energy system provides ATP for short term , high intensity activities and is highly active at the beginning of all exercise regardless of intensity (i.e. resistance training and sprinting)
