A

Lactic acid
Hydrogen (H+ ions)
ADP

19
Q

How long is the lactacid system’s duration?

A

10-75 seconds until full depletion

20
Q

What is the fuel source of the aerobic system?

A
  • CHO
  • Fats (after CHO is fully depleted)
  • Protein (last resort)
21
Q

What is the intensity of the aerobic energy system?

A

Sub-maximal exercise working at less than 80% max heart rate

22
Q

What is the duration of the aerobic energy system?

A

Over 75 seconds

23
Q

How much energy is produced from the system?

A

CHO produces between 34-38 ATP per glucose molecule
Fats can produce up to 441 ATP per triglyceride molecule
