1. ATP-CP What are the four systems the human body uses when forming
2. Anaerobic (glycolytic) ATP?
system
3. Aerobic (glycolytic) system
4. Fatty acid oxidation system
The ___ systems are limited Anaerobic
and
efficient for only short bouts
of activity
The __ system uses an Aerobic
abundant supply
of fat and carbohydrate to
create ATP to fuel long
bouts of activity
What terminology best describes the point at which
Lactate Threshold the aerobic system cannot supply enough ATP for
the needs of the body, forcing the anaerobic
systems to increase their contribution of ATP?
Capillaries Which are the smallest and most numerous of blood vessels?
120/80 What is the average BP (Blood Pressure) of a healthy person at
rest?
The top number, or , is the pressure exerted on the walls of
Systolic pressure
the arteries as
the heart contracts, representing peak pressure in the system
The bottom number, or , is the pressure exerted on the walls of
Diastolic pressure
the arteries as
the heart relaxes and fills again, representing the lowest pressure
in the arteries
, 72 The heart pumps approximately beats per minute (BPM) at
rest

bones), the pelvic girdle (2 bones), and the lower limbs
(60 bones) for a total of 126 bones
_ __ are tough, short bands of fibrous connective tissue that
Ligaments
connect bones to
other bones
Systolic blood pressure greater than is considered a risk factor
140
and should see a
physician to be cleared for physical activity
Diastolic blood pressure greater than is considered a risk
90
factor and should see a
physician to be cleared for physical activity
PAR-Q+ The first step in pre-exercise screening is to have client fill out a
_________________________________________ form
Anaerobic If you need energy quickly (power) the systems will be used
predominantly
If you need a lot of energy, but you do not need it
Aerobic
quickly, such as for a long distance hike, the
_____________systems will be used
predominantly
Mitochondria ATP is made in the _______
Work relief When working out anaerobically, what type of relief should be
utilized?
Rest relief When working out aerobically, what type of relief should be
utilized?
Specific, Measurable, SMART stands for-
Attainable, Realistic, Time
