Name the four ATP energy systems and how long they provide energy for. -
ANSWER: ATP-CP - 1-10 sec's at very high intensity \nGlycolytic - high
intensity 10 secs - 2-3 min\nOxidative - mid to low intensity +2 min\nFatty Acid
Oxidation - low intensity +2 min
How many units of ATP does each ATP energy system deliver? - ANSWER:
ATP-CP: 1 unit of ATP/ unit of CP
Glycolytic: 2-3 ATP/unit of glucose
Oxidative: 38 ATP/ unit of glucose
Fatty Acid Oxidation: 100 ATP/unit of fatty acid
What is EPOC? - ANSWER: excess post-exercise oxygen consumption
What is the lactate threshold? - ANSWER: The point at which the aerobic system
cannot supply enough ATP for the needs of the body
What type of fuel does the ATP-CP energy system use? - ANSWER: Stored ATP
what type of fuel does the glycolytic system use? - ANSWER: blood glucose,
muscle glycogen
,2|Page
what type of fuel does the oxidative system use? - ANSWER: blood glucose,
muscle glycogen
what type of fuel does the fatty acid oxidation system use? - ANSWER: fatty acids
in the blood stream
What is the work to rest ratio for ATP-CP interval training? - ANSWER: 1:3-1:6
What is the work to rest ratio for glycolitic system interval training? - ANSWER:
1:2-1:5
What is the work to rest ratio for oxidative system interval training? - ANSWER:
1: .5 - 1:1
Why do you not use work relief to train ATP-CP system? - ANSWER: Adequate
rest is needed to replenish ATP in the cells
Why would you use work relief to train glycolytic system? - ANSWER: Blocks
ATP replenishing of ATP
Body relies on lactic acid
Oxidative interval training, why rest relief? - ANSWER: If lactic acid not cleared
from the system the glycolic system is less able to provide energy therefore giving
a stronger training stimulus to the oxidative system
How much rest should be between ATP-CP training interval sets? - ANSWER: 5-
10 min
,3|Page
How much rest should be between glycolytic training interval sets? - ANSWER:
10-12 min
How much rest should be between oxidative training interval sets? - ANSWER:
10-15 min
What is the definition of energy? - ANSWER: The body's ability to do work
What is anaerobic metabolism? - ANSWER: without oxygen
What is aerobic metabolism? - ANSWER: with oxygen
What is the function of the right atrium and right ventricle? - ANSWER: Collect
blood from the tisues and move it through the lungs
What is the function of the left atrium and left ventricle? - ANSWER: receive
blood from the lungs and moves it to the tissues of the body and back to right side
of heart
Veins carry blood into or away from the heart? - ANSWER: into
Arteries carry blood into or away from the heart? - ANSWER: away
Oxygenated blood leaves the heart via the? - ANSWER: aorta
, 4|Page
How many liters of blood typically circulate in an adult every minute? -
ANSWER: 5L
Blood pressure is the result of? - ANSWER: Blood being pumped out of the heart
and pressing against the arterial walls
What is an average resting blood pressure? - ANSWER: 120/80 (mmHg)
What is name of function of the top number with regards to blood pressure? -
ANSWER: systolic, the pressure exerted on the walls of the arteries as the heart
contracts
What is name of function of the bottom number with regards to blood pressure? -
ANSWER: diastolic, the pressure exerted on the walls of the arteries as the heart
relaxes
During exercise what happens to systolic blood pressure? - ANSWER: Rises
quickly to about 200 mmHg then levels off
During moderate exercise what happens to the diastolic blood pressure? -
ANSWER: remains relatively stable
During what kind exercise might blood pressure spike to higher levels then 200
mmHg? - ANSWER: weightlifting as the muscular contractions compress the
arteries and resist blood flow
Aprox average resting heart rate? - ANSWER: 72bpm
