Document Summary

Energy bacics, metabolism and fuel mix: definition of energy - ability to do work. Examples: what is an energy system, what are atp- adenosine triphosphate; chemical energy used by bodies cells to do work, High energy phosphate, made from cho protein, fat, creatine and cp- creatine; Phosphate reservoir , used to make atp: review the energy systems: creatine phosphate glycolysis krebs/electron transport. System: be able to rank how many steps are in each system and how fast they are. Creatine kinase ck, 1atp/cp molecule; 2 atp via glucose 3 atp via. Muscle glycogen 36 atp via glucose 37 atp via glycogen: be able to say if each system is aerobic or anaerobic. Anaerobic anaerobic aerobic: primary cause of fatigue for each energy system. Cp depletion low ph (metabolic acidosis) fuel depletion (muscle glycogen: atp-cp system. Benefits of creatine supplementation- allows athletes to work harder. Muscle glycogen produces more atp than blood glucose.
