Name the four ATP energy systems and how long they provide
energy for.
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?
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?
excess post-exercise oxygen consumption
What is the lactate threshold?
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?
Stored ATP
what type of fuel does the glycolytic system use?
blood glucose, muscle glycogen
what type of fuel does the oxidative system use?
,blood glucose, muscle glycogen
what type of fuel does the fatty acid oxidation system use?
fatty acids in the blood stream
What is the work to rest ratio for ATP-CP interval training?
1:3-1:6
What is the work to rest ratio for glycolitic system interval
training?
1:2-1:5
What is the work to rest ratio for oxidative system interval
training?
1: .5 - 1:1
, Why do you not use work relief to train ATP-CP system?
Adequate rest is needed to replenish ATP in the cells
Why would you use work relief to train glycolytic system?
Blocks ATP replenishing of ATP
Body relies on lactic acid
Oxidative interval training, why rest relief?
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?
5-10 min
