Core 2 Critical Question 1 Flashcards
How does training affect performance?
what are the 3 energy systems?
- ATP-PC
- lactic acid
- aerobic
how long does the ATP-PC system last for
1-15 seconds
1-2 seconds of ATP, next 10-15 seconds use phosphocreatine
how efficient is the production of ATP in the ATP-PC system?
how much is there
ATP is provided quickly but has a only a limited supply to generate a high amount of energy for a short period of time (1-15 seconds)
what is the source of fuel of the ATP-PC system
we have roughly 90 grams of ATP to begin with for that 1-2 second start then phosphate creatine molecules form new atp molecules which extend the system for 10 seconds
how long does it take to recover the ATP-PC system?
within 2 minutes most of the ATP and PC supplies are fully restored, 50% of PC is regained after 30 seconds
what is the cause of fatigue to the ATP-PC system?
insufficient levels of ATP and PC due to them being quickly used up
what are the by products of the ATP-PC system?
Heat
what are some sports that use the ATP-PC system
sprinter and power lifter
what is the source of fuel of the lactic acid system?
carbohydrates: glucose in the blood and stored glycogen in the muscles and liver
how efficient is the ATP production in the lactic acid system
can provide ATP quickly but requires a large amount of glucose to do this.
the lactic acid system is more efficient than the ATP-PC system, for each glucose molecuse the lactic acid system can create 2 ATP molecules
180g of glycogen = 3 molecules of atp
how long does the lactic acid system last?
maximum effort: 30 seconds
high intensity: 1 minute
moderate intensity: 3-4 minutes
what is the cause of fatigue of the lactic acid system?
the build up of lactic acid in the muscle cells and blood. training will increase an individuals lactic acid tolerence and rate of removal
what is the rate of recovery of the lactic acid system?
lactic acid is resynthesised in the liver as glycogen, this takes 30 minutes to an hour
is the ATP-PC anaerobic or aerobic?
anaerobic means without oxygen, aerobic means with
anaerobic
is the lactic acid system anaerobic or aerobic?
anaerobic means without oxygen, aerobic means with
anaerobic
what is the by product of the lactic acid system
lactic acid
what are examples of sports that use the lactic acid system?
basketball
200-400m swimming
rowing
boxing
what is the source of fuel used by the aerobic system?
aerobic system uses 3 kinds
first the aerobic system uses carbohydrates in the body, then it uses** fats** once the carbohydrates are depleted and then once the fats are depleted the system uses **protien **
how efficient is the aerobic system in producing ATP?
the most efficient system
allows for sustained activity for long periods of time
180g og glycogen = 39 molecules of ATP
how long does the aerobic system last?
1 - 12 hours
what causes fatigue in the aerobic system
lack of fuel supply once protiens have been depleted, body temperature too high
what are the by products of the aerobic system?
water and carbon dioxide
what are the 4 types of training?
- aerobic
- anaerobic
- flexibility
4.strenght
what are the aerobic training methods?
- continuous
- fartlek
- aerobic intervak
- circuit
what are the anerobic methods of training?
anaerobic interval: short, medium and long
what are the methods of flexibility training
- static
- ballistic
- PNF
- dynamic
what are the methods of strength training?
- free/fixed weights
- elastic
- hydraulic
what is continuous aerobic training?
a constant training session with consistent efforts and speeds
what sports would use continuous aerobic training?
marathon and triathalon
what are the benifits to continuous aerobic training?
- builds the capacity of the aerobic energy system
- builds stroke volume and cardiac output and slow twitch muscles
give and example of a continuous aerobic training method?
a runner runs a 10km distance at 4min/km speed through the whole run
what is circut aerobic training?
a set of work and rest stations that alter to differ the muscle/system used
what sport would benifit from the use of aerobic circut training
- crossfit
- boxing
what are the benifits of circuit aerobic training?
- builds lactic acid tolerence
- muscular endurance
- adaptations in red blood cells
give an example of a circuit aerobic training
10 stations with different keg excercises at 1 minute work to 1 minute rest
what is aerobic training?
the ability of the session to work the cardio-vascular system
