Energy systems

ATP-PC, Anaerobic Glycolysis, Aerobic

carbohydrates, fats, protein

travels in the body as glucose and stored as glycogen

travels as free fatty acids (ffe) and stored as triglycerides

travels in the body as amino acids and is stored as amino acids or muscle tissues

bread, pasta/ preferred fuel in exercise, simplest food and is ranked from 0-100 on a glycemic index/ 45-65%

avocado, nuts/ provide 2/3 energy requirements at rest 25-30%

egg, red meats protein requires minimal contribution towards energy requirements, 10-15%

the glycaemic index- scale from 0-100 on how food well food provides sustenance during activity low gi gradual release/ high gi- sugar spike

ATP- immediate fuel broken down in the msucle to produce contractions(movement)/ 2-3 seconds available

ADP is required to rebuild back into the ATP to enable muscles to continue to function during exercise

anaerobic system that resynthesises ATP the quickest/ fastest rate

anaerobic that enable ATP to be rebuilt at a rapid rate when PC is depleted

synthesizes at the slowest rate

natural resource that cannot be rebuilt to keep up with demand

limitless supply

standing, slow walk allows the minimal energy output

low intensity recovery to prevent accumulation of hydrogen ions and lactate acid

acidic build up in the muscles that causes fatigue and slows enzymes required for exercise

the amount of time , quantity something takes

the maximum threshold

phosphagens (ATP and creatine phosphate), glucose, free fatty acids and amino acids

three main COH, fats and proteins

performing exercise with the presence of oxygen
