ESD Flashcards
name the 5 energy systems
- atp-pc
- anaerobic glycolytic
- aerobic
- ATP fuels muscle contractions
- exercise duration and intensity
*all systems are active no matter the exercise
describe the aerobic system
- primary energy supplier for the body at rest and low intensity activities usually lasting longer than 3 minutes
- oxidative system or mitochondrial respiration/krebs cycle (many reactions, ability to produce ATP at the slowest rate - ~24 rxns vs 1 for atp)
- CHO and lipids as fuel source
- amino acids - as the last ditch effort for energy
what 6 types of chronic adaptations are there for aerobic training?
- cardiovascular
- respiratoory
- neural
- muscular
- bone and connective tissue
- endocrine
describe cardiovascular chronic adaptations to aerobic training
increased maximal cardiac output, increased stroke volume and reduced HR at rest
describe respiratory chronic adaptations to aerobic training
more efficient oxygen delivery through increased tidal volume, breathing frequency
describe neural chronic adaptations to aerobic training
greater efficiency of synergistic muscle activation, better locomotion
describe muscular chronic adaptations to aerobic training
increased aerobic capacity of the given musculature. Ultimately, allows trained athletes to perform work at a greater maximal oxygen uptake
describe bone and connective tissue chronic adaptations to aerobic training
stimulation of bone growth, thicker cartilage at weight bearing joints
describe endocrine chronic adaptations to aerobic training
increase in hormonal circulation and changes at the receptor level
in the chart shown in class, what training types are in aerobic training?
- long, slow distance (LSD)
- pace/tempo
- interval
- repetition
- fartlek
describe long-slow distance aerobic training in terms of frequency, duration and intensity
frequency: 1-2 per week
duration: race distance or longer (~30-120 min)
intensity: ~70% V02max
describe pace/tempo aerobic training in terms of frequency, duration and intensity
frequency: 1-2 per week
duration: ~20-30 mins
intensity: at the lactate threshold, at or slightly above race pace
describe interval aerobic training in terms of frequency, duration and intensity
frequency: 1-2 per week
duration: 3-5 mins with work rest ratio of 1:1
intensity: close to v02 max
describe repetition aerobic training in terms of frequency, duration and intensity
frequency: 1 per week
duration: 30-90 secs (with 1:5 work to rest)
intensity: greater than v02max
describe fartlek aerobic training in terms of frequency, duration and intensity
frequency: 1 per week
duration: ~20-60 nins
intensity: varies between LSD and pace/tempo training intensities
how many aerobic training zones are there?
