Document Summary

Final is energy, ventilation, cardiovascular and muscles/adaptation. Talk about the start (acceleration, power and strength) Big picture slide to be aerobically fit: speed of running is how we quantify power, on a logarithmic scale, increasing exponential. Each pathway is related to power output productions. Energy used is going to be dictated by how fast energy is being produced. E. g. basketball all 3 systems can be used critically at different times. Carbs and fats for energy not really protein. 1g of carbs has 4kcals of energy, same mass of fats 1g of fat gives 9kcals, giving you more than twice as much energy. Makes a lot more sense to store energy as fats as opposed to carbohydrates. Hydrogen is particulary important, going to be processed through the etc, to give us energy. More hydrogens we have in carbs or a fatty acid, it is going to give us the sense of the most amount of energy we can get.
