FAP - 23 questions Flashcards
- What are the 3 energy systems?
a. Alactacid system - (ATP/PC)
b. Lactic acid system
c. Aerobic system
- For the Alactacid system, what is the:
- source of fuel
- duration
Alactacid system source of fuel:
90g of ATP (for first 1-2 s)
CP (next 10-15 s)
For the Alactacid
(ATP-PC) system,
what is the:
- efficiency
ATP - readily available but limited supply
PC- runs out quickly
For the Alactacid system, what is the:
- cause of fatigue
Depletion of fuel- ATP and PC
For the Alactacid system, what is the:
- by-products
Only heat
For the Alactacid system, what is the:
- process and rate of recovery
Recovers as creatine in the cell connects to the free phosphates again - storing them as PC to be used when they are needed again.
50% PC recovered after 30s
100% after 2min
For the Lactic acid system, what is the:
- source of fuel
Source of fuel:Carbohydrates
Glycolysis- breakdown of glucose (stored as glycogen in muscle, glucose in blood) to produce ATP
For the Lactic acid system, what is the:
- duration
30 seconds maximal effort
3-4 minutes with 70-80% effort
For the Lactic acid system, what is the:
- efficiency
Produces ATP quickly but requires large amount of glucose
Produces 2 ATP molecule for each glucose molecule
For the Lactic acid system, what is the:
- cause of fatigue
Build up of Pyruvic acid –> converts to lactic acid
Build up of H+ ions increase acidity of muscle- inhibits muscular contractions
For the Lactic acid system, what is the:
- by-products
Pyruvic acid –> ferments into lactic acid
For the Lactic acid system, what is the:
- process and rate of recovery
Liver reconverts lactic acid into glycogen to use again.
takes approx 30min to 1 hr
For the Aerobic system, what is the:
- source of fuel
Uses 3 different sources of fuel in this order (until the previous runs out)
Carbohydrates
Fat
Protein
For the Aerobic system, what is the:
- efficiency
Most efficient system in producing ATP
38 ATP molecules per glucose molecule
Allows for sustained PA for very long periods of time
BUT Rate of production is medium - cannot cope with higher intensity levels
For the Aerobic system, what is the:
- duration
12 hours of rest
1 hour of hard work
6 works of intermittent exercise
For the Aerobic system, what is the:
- cause of fatigue
Depletion of glycogen - causes switch to fats –> body requires more oxygen –> increase in body temp and HR –> decrease in intensity/ body becomes tired
For the Aerobic system, what is the:
- by-products
CO2 (exhaled) and H2O (released by body’s cells)
For the Aerobic system, what is the:
- process and rate of recovery
Restoring fuel stores to pre-exercise levels –> ingestion, digestion, and transportation of fuel
12-48 hours depending on intensity and duration of exercise
What are the types of training?

What is an example of anaerobic training?
anaerobic interval
What are examples of flexibility training?
Static
Ballistic
PNF
Dynamic
What are examples of strength training?
Free/fixed weights
Elastic
Hydraulic
