Elie Athletes Flashcards
What is V02 max?
Who has the best V02 max?
It is the max amount of oxygen you take in and utilise. High V02 max usually means the person is an aerobic fit athlete
Cross country skiers have the best V02 max
When the rate is high the yield is?
When the rate is low the yield is?
Low
High
When the yield is high the rate is?
When the yield is low the rare is?
Low
High
When ATPbreaks down it’s written as?
ADP+P
What is hemogloben?
It Carrys glucose in our blood to the muscle
What is ATP?
Energy system
What is lactate used for?
Lactate can be converted into energy and allows us to contract muscles
Colour of the fibres in the ATP-CP system?
White
What type of fibre in the ATP-CP system?
11x
Is ATP-CP system the fastest, fast or slow?
Fastest
Fitness components of the ATP-CP system?
Power, Speed, Strength
ATP-CP max heart rate?
95%+
ATP-CP Rate?
Fastest
ATP-CP yield?
0.7 ATP per glucose molecule
ATP-CP by products?
Build up of phosphate molecules
ATP-CP time span?
0-10 seconds
If you have a strong Aerobic system your recovery with be?
Quicker
Does the ATP-CP system require oxygen?
No
Where is protein?
Is protein a source of energy?
In your muscles
Yes but you only go to that source if it is your last chance of survival
How would you improve the ATP-CP system?
Do all training at maximal intensity
How would you improve the aerobic system?
Do all training in sub maximal intensity and long duration of the activity
How would you improve the anaerobic glycolysis system?
Build up your tolerance to lactate acid
ATP-CP fitness test
100m sprint
ATP-CP fuels?
Creating phosphate. Which helps the ATP to produce quicker
Define ATP-CP system?
Adenosine triphosphate breaks down the adenosine diphosphate (ADP) to create energy enabling us to have short fast and explosive movement
Colour of the Aerobic fibres?
Red
Name of the type of Aerobic fibre?
Type 1
Rate?
Slow
Fitness components for the Aerobic system?
Endurance, speed and strength
Anaerobic glycolysis system max heart rate
85%
Does the Anaerobic Glycolysis system require oxygen?
No
Why is Anaerobic glycolysis fast?
Not much chemical reaction needs to be taken place
Anaerobic Glycolysis yield?
2-3 ATP per glucose molecule
Anaerobic Glycolysis time span?
10-60 seconds
Anaerobic Glycolysis by products?
Hydrogen ions make muscle acidity increase and muscle PH decrease
Anaerobic Glycolysis most dominant part of there 10-60 second time span?
20-30 seconds
Anaerobic Glycolysis fuels?
Glycogen
Anaerobic Glycolysis
Hydrogen ions = lactic acid
Anaerobic Glycolysis fitness test?
Yo yo test
Anaerobic Glycolysis sport?
400-800m run
Anaerobic Glycolysis fitness components?
Power, speed, some endurance
What does ATP-CP stand for?
Adenosine triphosphate
Colour of the fibres in the Anaerobic Glycolysis system?
Pink
Type of fibre in the Anaerobic Glycolysis ?
11a
Anaerobic Glycolysis rate?
Fast
ATP-CP fitness test?
100m sprint
Colour of the Aerobic fibre?
Red
Type of fibre in the Aerobic system?
Type 1
Rate if the Aerobic system?
Slow
Aerobic fitness components?
Endurance, speed, strength
Define the Anaerobic glycolysis system?
This system is used during medium intensity exercise by breaking down glycogen and glucose to produce ATP at a much slower pace.
The result is the build up of hydrogen ions and lactate acid being formed
Does the Aerobic system require oxygen?
Yes
Aerobic yield?
36-38 ATP per glucose molecule
441 ATP per glucose molecule from fat stores after about 2 hours
By products of the Aerobic system?
Carbon dioxide, heat and water
Co2+h2o + heat
Define Anaerobic Glycolysis system?
Anaerobic Glycolysis is the transformation of glucose to pyruvate when limited amounts of oxygen are available
