energy + P + ADP (ENDOTHERMIC)

20
Q

ATP-PC SYSTEM : BY-PRODUCTS

21
Q

ATP-PC SYSTEM : INTENSITY

A

very high intensity

22
Q

ATP-PC SYSTEM : DURATION

A

23
Q

GLYCOLYTIC SYSTEM : TYPE OF REACTION

24
Q

GLYCOLYTIC SYSTEM : SITE

A

sarcoplasm

25
Q

GLYCOLYTIC SYSTEM : FOOD FUEL USED

A

glycogen / glucose

26
Q

GLYCOLYTIC SYSTEM : ENZYME

A

PFK and LDH

27
Q

GLYCOLYTIC SYSTEM : YIELD

28
Q

GLYCOLYTIC SYSTEM : STAGES

A

anaerobic glycolysis: glycogen -> glucose -> pyruvic acid + energy

lactate pathway: pyruvic acid -> lactic acid

energy + 2P + 2ADP -> 2ATP (ENDOTHERMIC)

29
Q

GLYCOLYTIC SYSTEM : BY-PRODUCTS

A

lactic acid

30
Q

GLYCOLYTIC SYSTEM : INTENSITY

A

high intensity

31
Q

GLYCOLYTIC SYSTEM : DURATION

A

10s - 3min (peak at 1min)

32
Q

What is the KREB’S CYCLE ?

A

the SECOND STAGE of the aerobic system producing energy to RESYNTHESISE 2 ATP in the MITOCHONDRIA MATRIX

33
Q

What is the ELECTRON TRANSPORT CHAIN (ETC) ?

A

the THIRD STAGE of the aerobic system producing energy to RESYNTHESISE 34 ATP in the MITOCHONDRIA CRISTAE

34
Q

What is the ENERGY CONTINUUM ?

A

relative CONTRIBUTION of each energy system to overall EVERY PRODUCTION depending on INTENSITY and DURATION of the activity

35
Q

PREDOMINANT ENERGY SYSTEM…
intensity = very high
duration = < 10 secs

A

ATP-PC system

36
Q

PREDOMINANT ENERGY SYSTEM…
intensity = high
duration = 10s - 3min

A

Glycolytic system

37
Q

PREDOMINANT ENERGY SYSTEM…
intensity = low-moderate
duration = > 3 mins

A

Aerobic system

38
Q

What is INTERMITTENT EXERCISE ?

A

activity where the INTENSITY alternates either during…

  • interval training = work : relief intervals
  • game = breaks of play
39
Q

What is a THRESHOLD ?

A

the point at which an athlete’s PREDOMINANT energy production moves from one energy system to another

40
Q

What are WORK : RELIEF PERIODS ?

A

the VOLUME of RELIEF in relation to the VOLUME of WORK PERFORMED

41
Q

How do RECOVERY PERIODS affect thresholds ?

A

anaerobic activities = ATP-PC and Glycolytic = quickly replenished = breaks aid recovery (basketball)

42
Q

How does FITNESS LEVEL affect thresholds ?

A
  • high VO2 Max
  • efficient cardiovascular
  • increases INTENSITY
  • increased BUFFERING CAPACITY
  • better LACTIC ACID removal
  • O2 arrival earlier
  • FFA demand is met
  • increases DURATION
43
Q

What are the other factors that affect energy production ?

A
  • position of the player
  • tactics and strategies
  • level of competition
  • structure of the game
44
Q

How does POSITION OF THE PLAYER affect energy systems ?

A
  • goalkeeper = aerobic

- atp-pc for dives, kicks, defense

45
Q

How do TACTICS AND STRATEGIES affect energy systems ?

A
  • man-man marking = increased intensity = anaerobic systems
46
Q

How does LEVEL OF COMPETITION affect energy systems ?

A
  • tough competition = increased intensity = anaerobic systems
47
Q

How does the STRUCTURE OF THE GAME affect energy systems ?

A
  • field games = large pitch = increased duration = decreased intensity = aerobic system
