Energy Systems Flashcards
What are the three energy systems mentioned?
ATP-PCr, Anaerobic, Aerobic
The three energy systems are ATP-PCr, Anaerobic, and Aerobic systems.
What is the ATP-PCr system also known as?
Alactic System
The ATP-PCr system is commonly referred to as the Alactic System.
What type of exercises does the ATP-PCr system support?
Explosive exercises lasting 8-18 seconds
The ATP-PCr system is primarily utilized for short bursts of high-intensity activities.
Where is Phosphate Creative (P) found in the body?
Sarcoplasm of muscles
Phosphate Creative (P) is an energy-rich compound located in the sarcoplasm of muscle cells.
How quickly does the ATP-PCr system generate ATP?
Very quickly
The ATP-PCr system is known for its rapid ATP generation, although it has limited supplies.
What is the energy yield of the ATP-PCr system?
1 mol ATP per mol PCr
This indicates the efficiency of the ATP-PCr system in producing ATP.
What enzyme detects high levels of ADP in the ATP-PCr system?
Kinase
Kinase is the enzyme responsible for facilitating the reaction involving ADP and PCr.
What happens to PC in the reaction involving energy release?
PC → P + C + Energy
This reaction illustrates the breakdown of Phosphate Creative to release energy.
How long does the ATP-PCr system last during muscular effort?
Only lasts 10 seconds
The ATP-PCr system can sustain energy for a maximum of about 10 seconds.
How long does it take for PC stores to replenish after exercise?
98% after 5 minutes of rest
PC stores in muscles can recover significantly within 5 minutes of rest.
What percentage of intensity is the ATP-PCr system effective at?
85% - 100%
The ATP-PCr system is most effective during high-intensity efforts.
What happens to ATP levels after maximum muscular effort?
ATP remains at around 85%
After intense effort, ATP levels stabilize but can decrease rapidly as exertion continues.
How quickly does PC decrease in muscle cells?
Rapid decline in 2 seconds
Phosphate Creative levels can drop quickly following intense exercise.
What type of training method is linked to the ATP-PCr system?
Plyometrics
Plyometric training is often associated with the use of the ATP-PCr energy system.
