Recovery Proxess

Question 1

EPOC

Answer 1

Excess post exercise oxygen consumption

Volume of O2 consumed above resting levels allowing exercise

Question 2

Oxygen deficit

Answer 2

When there is insufficient O2 available at the start of exercise to provide all ATP needed anaerobically

Question 3

Oxygen consumption

Answer 3

The amount of O2 used by the body

Question 4

Myoglobin

Answer 4

Protein that stores O2 in the muscle

Question 5

Active recovery

Answer 5

Use of light energy to aid recovery

Question 6

Alactacid

Answer 6

A fast process that takes 2-3 minutes where O2 is used for rapid resynthesis of ATP/PC

Question 7

Lactacid

Answer 7

Slow process that takes 1-24 hours where O2 is used to remove lactic acid and maintain high heart rate breathing rate and body temp

Question 8

What happens in epoc

Answer 8

Replenishment of O2 in myoglobin
Replenishment of glycogen
Removal of lactic acid
Return body temp to normal

Question 9

Answer 9

Graph

Question 10

Recover alactacid

Answer 10

During exercise PC and ATP are depleted but can be replenished by taking in 4 litres of O2 in 2-3 minutes
PC levels restored

Question 11

How much PC is restored during alactacid recovery

Answer 11

30 secs- 50% PC
1 min- 75% PC
4 min - 100% pc

Question 12

How long does it take myoglobin to be restored

Answer 12

1-2 minutes

Question 13

Recovery lactacid stages

Answer 13

1. Lactic acid removed from cells/blood can take up to 1 hour
2. the removal of CO2 by maintaining cardiac output and venous return
3. Replenishment of glycogen stores
