1. three basic
phosphagen, glycolytic, and oxidative
ener- gy
systems
2. phosphagen at beginning of exercise
involved at the beginning of all activity regardless of exercise intensity
and provides energy by breaking down ATP and creatine phosphate
(CP)
3. glycolytic system 400 m sprints, middle of run
breaks down carbohydrates (glucose)via multiple catabolic reactions.
Although not as fast as the phosphagen system, the duration of energy
production is significantly longer
4. oxidative during a mile run it would start to kick in, the longer distances.
metabolizes carbohydrates, fats, and protein as the primary source of
ATP produc- tion during restand low-intensity activities
5. VO2 max VO2max is the maximum amount of oxygen the body can take in and
utilize during one minute of high intensity exercise
-fitness over fatness
6. lactate threshold lactate threshold (LT) is the point in exercise at which lactate starts to
accumulate in the blood above resting levels
-changes the most
7. exercise Exercise economy is the amount of energy required to maintain a
econo- my consistent pace
8. muscle fiber type type 1: slow-
twitch
type 2: fast-twitch
