Name the two anaerobic energy systems.
The ATP-PC system and the Glycolysis system.
What is the difference between ATP and ADP?
ATP has 3 phosphate molecules, ADP has 2 phosphate molecules.
In movement energy is used for?
Muscle contraction
Macronutrient used for energy at rest
Fats
Why is energy produced much more quickly from the PC system compared to the aerobic system?
Less/quicker reactions take place in order to resynthesise ATP.
What is the primary energy system used in soccer?
Lactic Acid (Glycolytic) system
How long can the ATP-PC system produce energy for?
2-15 seconds
What determines the type of energy production required in athletics?
intensity and duration
What is it called when you need to produce energy quicker than the aerobic system allows?
The anaerobic threshold
Which aerobic fuel source produces ATP the quickest?
Carbohydrates
Which three places is glycogen and glucose found in the body?
Liver, blood and muscles
Explain how lactic acid is produced.
Lactic acid is produced when we produce energy in the glycolysis system and oxygen is not present.
What is the primary function of protein?
Build and repair muscle
Name primary factor that affects your VO2 max.
Stroke volume
What is lipolysis?
Breakdown of fats for energy
How long does it take to resynthesis 50% of PC levels?
30 seconds
