Name the four ATP energy systems ATP-CP - 1-10 sec's at very high intensity
and how long they provide energy \nGlycolytic - high intensity 10 secs - 2-3
for. min\nOxidative - mid to low intensity +2 min\nFatty
Acid Oxidation - low intensity +2 min
How many units of ATP does each ATP-CP: 1 unit of ATP/ unit of CP
ATP energy system deliver?
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 Stored ATP
energy system use?

what type of fuel does the glycolytic blood glucose, muscle glycogen
system use?
what type of fuel does the oxidative blood glucose, muscle glycogen
system use?
what type of fuel does the fatty acid fatty acids in the blood stream
oxidation system use?
What is the work to rest ratio for ATP- 1:3-1:6
CP interval training?
What is the work to rest ratio for 1:2-1:5
glycolitic system interval training?
What is the work to rest ratio for 1: .5 - 1:1
oxidative system interval training?
Why do you not use work relief to Adequate rest is needed to replenish ATP in the
train ATP-CP system? cells
Why would you use work relief to Blocks ATP replenishing of ATP
train glycolytic system? Body relies on lactic acid
Oxidative interval training, why rest If lactic acid not cleared from the system the
relief? glycolic system is less able to provide energy
therefore giving a stronger training stimulus to the
oxidative system
How much rest should be between 5-10 min
ATP-CP training interval sets?

What is aerobic metabolism? with oxygen
What is the function of the right Collect blood from the tisues and move it through
atrium and right ventricle? the lungs
What is the function of the left atrium receive blood from the lungs and moves it to the
