Q

how efficient is the production of ATP in the ATP-PC system?

how much is there

A

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)

Q

what is the source of fuel of the ATP-PC system

A

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

Q

how efficient is the ATP production in the lactic acid system

A

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

220- age

84

86
Q

what is resting heart rate?

A

how many times per minute your heart beats
- adaptation: heart rate will lower with increased performance

87
Q

what is stroke volume and cardiac output?

A

stroke volume: the amount of blood pumped out of our hearts every heart beat (can be inproved by 10-15% in 12 weeks)
cardiac output: the amount of blood pumped out of the heart per minute

88
Q

what is oxygen uptake and lung capacity?

oxygen uptake: the amount of oxygen we can supply our body with per minute ( can be increased by 10%
lung capacity: the more air we can fit into our lungs (cant be increased that much)

89

A

the element that attatces itself to oxygen to transport it around the blood stream
training will increacehaemoglobin levels and therefor increase oxygen flow in the blood stream

90

increase in the muscle cell size

91
Q

what are fast and slow twitch muscle fibres

A

muscle fibres which give them structure
slow twitch: has ednurance and steady power
fast twitch: explosive power, fatigues easity
- aerobic have more slow twitch mucle fibres
- anaerobic have more fast twitch muscle fibres
