Q

Aerobic energy system

A

Aerobic glycolysis:
- Glycogen is broken down by glycogen phosphorylase forming glucose
- glucose is broken down by PFK forming Pyruvic acid + energy +2 ATP
- (Pyruvic acid + energy +2 ATP) + Coenzyme A forms Acetyle CoA

Krebs Cycle:
- Acetyle CoA + Oxaloacetic acid = Citric acid
- Citric acid enters the krebs cycle and releases 2 ATP, H2 and CO2.
- Oxaloacetic acid is regenerated

ETC:
- H + NAD & FAD = NADH & FADH
- H splits in the Cristae of the mitochondria releasing 34ATP andH2O

Q

why use target HR intensities to guide training? (5 points)

A
  • HR is a good indicator of work intensity
  • different training zones target different benefits
  • if a performer works below their target HR, no adaptations will occur/no training benefit
  • if a performer works above their target HR, anaerobic benefits may occur/may fatigue quickly
  • highly trained performers will work at the upper end of zones
