Energy Systems

Characteristics of ATP-PC (rate, yield, intensity, duration, fatiguing factors, by-products, fuel used and preferred recovery)

most rapid rate, low yield, maximal intensity, short duration 0-10s, PC depletion & ADP + Pi build up, creatine phosphate, passive recovery

Characteristics of Anaerobic Glycolysis (rate, yield, intensity, duration, fatiguing factors, by-products (4), fuel used and preferred recovery)

fast rate, small yield, high intensity, repeated efforts (90s), lactic acid accumulation, ADP & Pi & lactate & hydrogen ions, glucose/glycogen, active recovery

Characteristics of Aerobic (rate, yield, intensity, duration, fatiguing factors, by-products, fuel used and preferred recovery)

slow rate, large yield, submaximal, endurance (90+), depletion of glycogen & accumulation of by products, carbohydrates & fats, active recovery

ATP-PC activities (4)

golf drive, 100m sprint, weightlifting, jumping

Anaerobic Glycolysis activities (3)

400m, repeat sprints in intermittent sports, 100 swim

Anaerobic activities (3)

marathon, walking, long intermittent sports eg. AFL

Passive Recovery

completed rest by sitting or standing still to replenish CP stores at a fast rate which can take up to 10 minutes

Active recovery

low- intensity activity that allows the body to maintain elevated blood flow to prevent venous pooling in muscles and removes build up of by products. generally 5-10 mins, targeting same muscle used in activity
