Year 10 (Term 4)

Question 1

What is ATP

Answer 1

ATP is a chemical that produces energy

Question 2

Energy and Sport

Answer 2

The body requires energy in order to perform bodily functions (digestion, growth, repair, muscle contractions, ect)

Question 3

Aerobic vs Anaerobic

Answer 3

Aerobic means “with oxygen”

Anaerobic means “without oxygen”

Question 4

The ATP-PC system: key charactersistics  
Anaerobic or Aerobic
Heart rate
Duration 
Fitness components 
Examples of activity

Answer 4

Anaerobic doesn’t require energy
(>95% maximum heart rate)
Duration 0-20 seconds
Fitness components: Speed, agility,
muscular strength ((1-3 repeats), muscular power, dynamic flexibility.
Examples of activity: High jump, 100m sprint, clean and jerk.

Question 5

The lactic System: Key Characteristics 
Anaerobic or Aerobic
Intensity 
Heart rate
Duration 
Fitness components 
Examples of activity

Answer 5

Anaerobic
High intensity activity (>85% maximum HR)
Duration 20 seconds- 2 minutes
Fitness Components: Speed, agility (if fatiguing), muscular endurance, muscular power
Examples of activity: 400m run, 500m swim, plank hold

Question 6

The Aerobic System 
Anaerobic or Aerobic 
intensity 
Heart rate
Duration 
Fitness components 
Examples of activity

Answer 6

Aerobic
Low intensity (<85% maximum HR)
Duration >2minutes
Fitness components: Aerobic Capacity, muscular endurance, static flexibility
Examples of activity: 5 km cycle, 400m swim, marathon

Question 7

Define: The Components of Fitness

Answer 7

A series of seven categories used to identify specific aspects of an athletes overall fitness

Question 8

What are the fitness components

Answer 8

Speed, agility, power, aerobic capacity, strength, muscular endurance, flexibility

Question 9

Power

Answer 9

The ability to exert maximum power in the shortest amount of time. it is the product of strength and speed

Question 10

Anaerobic Capacity

Answer 10

the ability of heart, lungs and circulatory system to supply oxygen and nutrients efficiently to working muscles and to remove waste products.

Question 11

Strength

Answer 11

the ability of muscles to exert force by contracting against resistance

Question 12

Speed

Answer 12

The ability to move quickly

Question 13

Agility

Answer 13

The ability to move the entire body from one position to another quickly and precisely.

Question 14

muscular endurance

Answer 14

The ability to sustain or repeat a series of muscles contractions without fatigue.

Question 15

Flexibility

Answer 15

The ability of a joint to move through it’s full range of motion

Question 16

The Principals of Training include

Answer 16

Specificity, progressive overload, Individuality, reversibility, variety, recovery

Question 17

Energy System overlap

Answer 17

ATP-PC is in a shape of a J
Aerobic is like an S
Lactic is like a mountain

Question 18

At Maximum Heart Rate

Answer 18

Increases in intensity are unable to occur

Fatigue starts to limit performance as not enough oxygen can reach the muscle to continue the supply ATP

Question 19

How do you calculate the estimated heart rate?

Answer 19

220-age

Question 20

Increase Heart Rate

Answer 20

When you begin to exercise heart rate increase the supply of oxygen to your working muscles
If you exercise at a comfortable sub-maximal pace (steady state) then your heart rate will level off and remain constant until you increase pace or work load.

Question 21

Heart Rate and Energy System

Maximum Heart rates and the connection with Anaerobic and Aerobic and recovery

Answer 21

Heart rate can be used as an indicator of energy system demands.

Greater then 85% maximum indicates Anaerobic work
Between 70-85% maximum indicates Aerobic work
Below 70% indicates recovery

Question 22

To Calculate (Maximum Heart rates and the connection with Anaerobic and Aerobic and recovery)

Answer 22

Maximum heart rate= 220-age
Anaerobic Zone= Max HR x 0.85
Aerobic Zone= Max HR x 0.70. ANSWER-Anaerobic zone
