ENERGY SYSTEMS Flashcards
(20 cards)
what is the adaptation to exercise for ATP-PC energy systems
- increased creatine stores
what is the adaptation to exercise for lactate energy systems
- increased tolerance to lactate
what is the adaptation to exercise for aerobic energy systems
- increased use of fats as an energy source
- increased storage of glycogen
- increased number of mitochondria
what are the additional factors for Energy systems
- diabetes
- children’s lack of a lactate system
what is the ATP-PC energy system duration
6-10 seconds
what is the lactate energy system duration
10 seconds- 2 minutes
what is the aerobic energy system duration
more than 2 minutes
what is the ATP-PC energy system fuel source
phosphate creatine
what is the lactate energy system fuel source
glycogen
what is the aerobic energy system fuel source
glycogen and fats
what is the ATP-PC energy system recovery time
roughly 3 minutes
what is the lactate energy system recovery time
1-2 hours
what is the aerobic energy system recovery time
24-48 hours
what type of sports is the ATP-PC energy system used in
sports requiring explosive power
what type of sports is the lactate energy system used in
stop/start games. field and court games
what type of sports is the aerobic energy system used in
long distance and endurance games
role of ATP during exercise
- ATP availability
- ATP structure
- ATP breakdown
- ATP resynthesis
how is ATP available in the body
ATP is stored in the muscles
it is readily available to be broken down
how is ATP structured in the body
it is 3 phosphates attached to an adenine group
how is ATP broken down
the final phosphate is broken off and energy is released and the remaining product is ADP
