Name the four ATP energy systems and how long they provide energy for. correct answers 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? correct answers 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? correct answers excess post-exercise oxygen consumption
What is the lactate threshold? correct answers 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? correct answers Stored ATP
what type of fuel does the glycolytic system use? correct answers blood glucose, muscle
glycogen
what type of fuel does the oxidative system use? correct answers blood glucose, muscle glycogen
what type of fuel does the fatty acid oxidation system use? correct answers fatty acids in the
blood stream
What is the work to rest ratio for ATP-CP interval training? correct answers 1:3-1:6
What is the work to rest ratio for glycolitic system interval training? correct answers 1:2-1:5
What is the work to rest ratio for oxidative system interval training? correct answers 1: .5 - 1:1
Why do you not use work relief to train ATP-CP system? correct answers Adequate rest is
needed to replenish ATP in the cells
Why would you use work relief to train glycolytic system? correct answers Blocks ATP
replenishing of ATP
,Body relies on lactic acid
Oxidative interval training, why rest relief? correct answers 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? correct answers 5-10 min
How much rest should be between glycolytic training interval sets? correct answers 10-12 min
How much rest should be between oxidative training interval sets? correct answers 10-15 min
What is the definition of energy? correct answers The body's ability to do work
What is anaerobic metabolism? correct answers without oxygen
What is aerobic metabolism? correct answers with oxygen
What is the function of the right atrium and right ventricle? correct answers Collect blood from
the tisues and move it through the lungs
What is the function of the left atrium and left ventricle? correct answers 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? correct answers into
Arteries carry blood into or away from the heart? correct answers away
Oxygenated blood leaves the heart via the? correct answers aorta
How many liters of blood typically circulate in an adult every minute? correct answers 5L
Blood pressure is the result of? correct answers Blood being pumped out of the heart and
pressing against the arterial walls
What is an average resting blood pressure? correct answers 120/80 (mmHg)
What is name of function of the top number with regards to blood pressure? correct answers
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? correct answers
diastolic, the pressure exerted on the walls of the arteries as the heart relaxes
During exercise what happens to systolic blood pressure? correct answers Rises quickly to about
200 mmHg then levels off
, During moderate exercise what happens to the diastolic blood pressure? correct answers remains
relatively stable
During what kind exercise might blood pressure spike to higher levels then 200 mmHg? correct
answers weightlifting as the muscular contractions compress the arteries and resist blood flow
Aprox average resting heart rate? correct answers 72bpm
Where is the carotid artery and what can it be used to measure? correct answers neck below jaw
line, blood pressure
Where is the radial artery and what can it be used to measure? correct answers wrist, blood
pressure
What is stroke volume? correct answers the amount of blood that the left ventricle ejects in one
beat
What is the average stroke volume at rest for a typical male? correct answers 70 milliliters
What happens to SV as client becomes fitter? correct answers ventricles become larger
contract with more force
SV increases
trained deliver more blood/heartbeat vs. an untrained
What is cardiac output? correct answers the amount of blood that the heart ejects in 1 minute
What is the equation for determining cardiac output? correct answers CO=SVxHR
What happens to stroke volume during moderate exercise? correct answers increases early and
rises until it plateaus
What happens to HR during exercise? correct answers intensifies to maximal levels before
exhaustion
What are the benefits of better cardiac output? correct answers - means that heart will beat fewer
times ( more rest for heart\n- able to deliver more oxygen and nutrients to working muscles with
less effort
Ventilation refers to? correct answers the mechanical process of moving air in and out of the
lungs
Diffusion refers to? correct answers The way gases are exchanges in the lungs
The average adult male has a lung volume of? correct answers 4-6 liters
What is the rate of pulmonary ventilation at rest? correct answers 10 liters per minute
