evaluating the 3 energy systems during exercise Flashcards
1
Q
how do the fuel sources and energy systems work during exercise?
A
During exercise all fuel sources and energy systems come into play to meet the demands of ATP. The rate at which the energy systems can synthesise ATP varies
2
Q
which is the slowest system?
A
Aerobic system
3
Q
which is the fastest system?
A
ATP-CP
4
Q
which system will be used for higher intensity exercise?
A
ATP-CP (fastest)
5
Q
which system is necessary across all range of exercise intensities?
A
aerobic
6
Q
Explain how a games player like in lacrosse will use the systems
A
They will have periods of high intensity work (ATP-CP and lactic acid system) and periods of lower effort (aerobic systems)
