Energy Systems Energy Nutrients 1. Proteins 2. Fats 3. Carbohydrates • Glucose Metabolism = Chemical reactions in the body that convert the fuel from food into the energy we need Energy: ATP • Adenosine TriPhosphate (ATP) • “free energy” • ATP ADP + P + Energy Energy Systems 1. Anaerobic System • No oxygen • Occurs in cytoplasm • Powerful, but short period of time 2. Aerobic System • With oxygen • Occurs in mitochondria • Long period of time (as long as there is oxygen) Metabolic Pathways ATP-PC Pathway (anaerobic alactic) Glycolysis Pathway (anaerobic lactic) Cellular Respiration (aerobic) ATP-PC Pathway (Phosphagen System) • • • • • Anaerobic alactic “no oxygen” & “without lactic acid” Duration: 10-15 seconds Occurs in cytoplasm Relies on available phosphocreatine (PC) – Readily accessible – Does not involve metabolism of glucose • Sustain ATP for short, powerful bursts of activity Weightlifting 100-metre sprint Glycolysis Pathway • • • • • Anaerobic lactic “no oxygen” & “lactic acid present” Duration: 1-3 minutes Occurs in cytoplasm Partial breakdown of glucose 2 ATP • Lactic acid = by-product, when built up causes muscle pain 400-metre or 800-metre 1 Hockey shift Cellular Respiration • • • • • • Aerobic “oxygen present” Duration: > 90 seconds Occurs in mitochondria Complete breakdown of glucose 36 ATP Sustain intense activity for longer period of time Marathon Triathlon Muscle Fibre Types • Slow-Twitch – Generate and relax tension slowly – Maintain lower level of tension for long durations • Fast-Twitch – Generate & relax tension quickly – large amounts of tension with low endurance – Activate 2 or 3 times faster than slow-twitch Fibre Types Based on tension-generating features & metabolic properties 1. Type I – Slow Oxidative • Low intensity, longer duration • Fatigue resistant • Depend on aerobic 2. Type IIA – Fast-Oxidative Glycolytic (intermediate) • Intermediate intensity, shorter duration • Glycolytic capacity 3. Type IIB – Fast-Glycolytic • High intensity • Quick contractions without oxygen Cellular Respiration Glycolysis ATP-PC
