What is EPOC? .....ANSWER.....excess post-exercise oxygen

consumption

What is the lactate threshold? .....ANSWER.....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?

.....ANSWER.....Stored ATP

what type of fuel does the glycolytic system use?

.....ANSWER.....blood glucose, muscle glycogen

what type of fuel does the oxidative system use?

.....ANSWER.....blood glucose, muscle glycogen

What is the work to rest ratio for ATP-CP interval training?

.....ANSWER.....1:3-1:6

What is the work to rest ratio for glycolitic system interval

training? .....ANSWER.....1:2-1:5

What is the work to rest ratio for oxidative system interval

training? .....ANSWER.....1: .5 - 1:1

Why do you not use work relief to train ATP-CP system?

.....ANSWER.....Adequate rest is needed to replenish ATP in the

cells.

Why would you use work relief to train glycolytic system?

.....ANSWER.....work relief blocks the replenishing of ATP within

the cells and ensures that body relies on the lactic acid system

Why does oxidative interval training rely on rest relief?

.....ANSWER.....If the lactic acid is not cleared from the system the

glycolic system is less able to provide energy therefore giving a

stronger training stimulus to the oxidative system
