What is ATP >>> Adenosine Triphosphate - chemical compound that is the source of energy for muscles to work. What are the three main energy systems in the body >>> ATP-PC System, Aerobic System, Lactic Acid System What is the ATP/PC System used for? >>> High intensity performance of maximum effort. ATP-PC System Fuel? >>> Creatine Phosphate Duration ATP-PC System? >>> 1-10 seconds energy Activities of the ATP-PC System >>> 100m sprint, shot put, weight lifting, high jump, golf swing, discus throw What causes fatigue in the ATP/PC System? >>> when there is no time to break down glycogen and produce ATP and PC is depleted What by-products come from the ATP/PC System? >>> Nil Recovery of ATP/PC System >>> 2-3 minutes and repeated effort is possible. What is the lactic acid system used for? >>> Intense activity lasting up to 3 minutes Fuel source of the lactic acid system? >>> Glycogen from stored glucose. What is anaerobic glycolosis? >>> partial breakdown of glucose to form lactic acid in the absence of oxygen. Duration of the lactic acid system? >>> 10-30 seconds of maximal energy and up to 3 minutes near maximal energy use. Activities of lactic acid system? >>> 800m run, 200m swim Fatigue of lactic acid system caused by? >>> Accumulation of lactic acid in muscles as a by product of energy production in the absence of oxygen Recovery of lactic acid? >>> Takes up to 90 minutes. What is the fuel source of the aerobic system? >>> Carbohydrates, fats then proteins in that order. How long can ATP production occur for in the Aerobic System? >>> Unlimited time.
