Energy Continuum 3 Flashcards
1
Q
what is the energy continuum
A
how energy systems interact with each other to provide energy for ATP resynthesis
2
Q
what are the factors affecting the energy system used
A
intensity &duration, fitness levels, recovery periods, energy threshold, O2 supply, fuel, enzyme activation,
3
Q
does OBLA stand for
A
onset of blood lactate accumulation
4
Q
what is OBLA
A
point at which the production of lactate (lactic acid) exceeds the speed of removal (more made than removed)
5
Q
what is the lactate threshold
A
point at which lactate (lactic acid) production starts to be accumulate (pile up/collect) above resting levels
