Chapter 6: Three Energy Systems Chapter 7: Acute Responses Chapter 8: Fatigue and Recovery
ATP splits into…
ADP and Pi
How long does ATP- PC last for?
Roughly 12 seconds
ATP= 2, PC=10
ATP is best used for events of:
High intensity
Short duration
What is ATP’s rate and yield?
High rate
Low yield
The 3 Food Fuels are:
Carbohydrates (CHO)
Fats
Protein
Chemical Fuels are:
ATP
PC (or CP)
What does yield measure?
What produces the most energy
The total amount of resynthesized ATP
Rate determines…
What releases energy the fastest
How quickly ATP is resynthesized
The 3 Energy Systems are:
ATP-PC
Anaerobic Glycolysis
Aerobic System
What is energy system interplay?
That all 3 systems are working together at the same time.
A dominant energy system refers to..
The system that is the main contributor, providing the most amount of energy at that point in time.
ATP replenishment occurs within…
Muscular contractions
Is the ATP-PC system anaerobic or aerobic?
Anaerobic- no oxygen required
To replenish PC stores, ________ recovery should be completed
Passive
Why is passive recovery better for anaerobic systems?
Gives PC stores to replenish as you are resting (less movement).
Carbohydrates become _______ when broken down in the body.
Glycogen
Glycogen is broken down in the absence of _______.
Oxygen
When is the anaerobic glycolysis system dominant?
After ATP- PC stores have depleted
What are the byproducts produced by the anaerobic glycolysis system?
Hydrogen Ions
Lactate (DON’T USE AS AN ANSWER)
Why is active recovery best for the anaerobic glycolysis system?
It increases blood flow and oxygen intake which helps to flush out metabolic byproducts.
The anaerobic glycolysis system has a ______ rate and _______ yield compared to ATP.
Slower rate
Higher yield
