IQ1 Flashcards
What is the source of fuel for the Alactic Acid System?
Creatine Phosphate (CP)
How efficient is ATP production in the Alactic Acid System?
Creates ATP quickly, but it is limited
What is the duration and intensity of the Alactic Acid System?
Usually 10-12 seconds of a high intensity workout
What causes fatigue in the Alactic Acid System?
Limited storage of ATP and PC
What are the by-products of the Alactic Acid System?
Heat
What is the recovery process for the Alactic Acid System?
Decreasing the intensity of the exercise/Increased breathing rate replenishing O2
What is the recovery rate for the Alactic Acid System?
Fully recovered in approximately 2 minutes
What are some examples of activities using the Alactic Acid System?
100m sprint, bench press, shot putt
What is the source of fuel for the Lactic Acid System?
Carbohydrates (in muscle and liver as glycogen = blood)
How efficient is ATP production in the Lactic Acid System?
Quick ATP, fatigues drastically as lactic acid level rises.
What is the duration and intensity of the Lactic Acid System?
30sec - 3min of high intensity activity
What causes fatigue in the Lactic Acid System?
Accumulation (build up) of Lactic acid
What are the by-products of the Lactic Acid System?
Lactic acid
What is the recovery process for the Lactic Acid System?
Decreasing the intensity of exercise/increased breathing rate → lactic acid is broken down in the presence of O2.
What is the recovery rate for the Lactic Acid System?
30 mins - 2 hrs
What are some examples of activities using the Lactic Acid System?
400m and 800m run, 100m and 200m freestyle swim.
What is the source of fuel for the Aerobic System?
Carbohydrates (in muscle and liver as glycogen. Sometimes in fat and proteins)
How efficient is ATP production in the Aerobic System?
Produces slowly but has endless supply
What is the duration and intensity of the Aerobic System?
Endless at low to moderate intensity
What causes fatigue in the Aerobic System?
Depletion (reduction) of glycogen levels
What is the recovery process for the Aerobic System?
Stocking of glycogen through diet
What is the recovery rate for the Aerobic System?
Up to 48 hours
What are some examples of activities using the Aerobic System?
Triathlon, 5000m run
