100
This can be used to make more than 36 ATP molecules
What is pyruvate
100
An untrained athlete has a low one of these
What is lactate threshold
100
Lactate threshold can be increased by this type of training
What is interval training, or continuous training
100
The amount of lactic acid produced in the blood as a result of anaerobic activity
What is blood lactate
100
This meal is a good source of energy and should be eaten the night before a sporting event.
What is pasta
200
Pyruvate and lactic acid are the by products of this cellular process
What is anaerobic gylcolysis
200
The OBLA in this type of athlete happens early on during exercise
What is an untrained athlete
200
By eating this type of food 15min after exercise, recovery time will decrease
What is carbohydrates
200
The body’s functional unit of energy
What is ATP
200
Lactic acid is produced in this metabolic pathway
What is glycolysis (anaerobic lactic)
300
In glycolysis this substance is metabolized
What is glucose
300
These levels in the blood increase dramatically during activity.
What is blood lactate levels
300
After training and proper diet an athlete will reach this point later on during increasingly intense exercise.
What is lactate threshold or OBLA
300
The point during increasingly intense exercise where the blood lactate level exceeds your resting blood lactate level
What is lactate threshold
300
The presence of oxygen allows this cycle to take place
What is the Krebs cycle
400
In the absence of oxygen, glycolysis produces two of these molecules
What is ATP
400
The lactate threshold of an untrained athlete is reached at this percentage of their V02 max
What is 50-60%
400
After exercising for a long period of time, more of these are produced which helps in processing oxygen.
What is mitochondria
400
An accumulation in blood lactate
What is Onset of Blood Lactate Accumulation (OBLA)
400
The Krebs cycle takes place in this part of the cell
What is the mitochondria
500
When there is oxygen present, pyruvic acid is converted into this molecule instead of lactic acid.
What is Acetyl CoA
500
An untrained athlete will reach their maximum lactic acid build up at this percent intensity.
What is 75-85%
500
The enhancement of this organ aids in raising the lactate threshold
What is the heart
500
Pyruvic acid is converted into this
What is lactic acid
500
The final stage of cellular respiration
What is the electron transport chain
