This is produced by chemical breakdown of ATP
UNIT 1 - Information Muscle contraction Requires energy This is produced by chemical breakdown of ATP ATP ADP + P
2
There is a limited supply of ATP in muscle cells
UNIT 1 - Information There is a limited supply of ATP in muscle cells (it’s usually used up after 3 – 5 seconds of exercise) For exercise to continue, ATP has to be re-generated from ADP using energy obtained from other sources. ADP + P ATP Note: ATP: Adenosine triphosphate ADP: Adenosine diphosphate P: Phosphate

There are 3 sources (energy systems) that the body can use:
UNIT 1 - Information There are 3 sources (energy systems) that the body can use: 1.ATP/ PC or CP System Anaerobic Pathway 2. Lactic Acid System Aerobic Pathway 3. Aerobic System
4
The CP (Creatine Phosphate) System
UNIT 1 - Information The CP (Creatine Phosphate) System CP – Stored in Muscles Combines with ADP to re-build ATP Immediate source of energy Limited source – lasts up to 10/15 seconds Very important for bursts of explosive speed Suitable for short duration events: 100m, throwing/ jumping athletic events. Phases of team game play. Replenishing stores of CP takes up to 6 minutes of recovery after end of exercise ADP + CP = ATP + C CP: Creatine Phosphate C - Creatine
5
UNIT 1 - Information LACTIC ACID SYSTEM
Glycogen made from glucose obtained from digested food present in all cells of the body – muscles, liver When glycogen breaks down it releases pyruvic acid and energy. This energy is used to re-build ATP from ADP and P This system is anaerobic – no O2 Pyruvic acid is easily removed when O2 is available Where there is little O2 it is changed into lactic acid Muscles fail to contract fully - fatigue Energy from this source lasts longer – up to three minutes before build up of lactic acid prevents further energy production Suitable for athletes – 200m – 800m. Games players who need to keep up continuous short bursts of activity Takes about 20 – 60 minutes to remove accumulated lactic acid after maximal exercise ADP + glycogen = ATP + Pyruvic acid (or pyruvic acid without O2)
6
UNIT 1 - Information AEROBIC SYSTEM
For longer events – muscles must work aerobically. O2 present This system can take the pyruvic acid produced when glycogen breaks down and turns it into more energy rather than lactic acid Supplies energy to athletes who are working sub-maximally at 60 – 80% of maximum effort and can take in a constant supply of O2 This system provides most of the energy required for physical activity lasting longer than about 3 minutes – long distance activity – runners/ cyclists – Games Players ADP + Glycogen = ATP + Pyruvic acid

Characteristics of the 3 Energy Systems
UNIT 1 - Information Characteristics of the 3 Energy Systems Energy System Aerobic/ Anaerobic Fuel/ Energy Source By-product Exercise intensity Duration Sporting Examples NOTES ATP/ PC Anaerobic Creatine High (Flat Out) 10 – 15 Seconds Sprinting, athletic field events, weight-lifting. Small muscular stores of ATP and PC are exhausted quickly leading to a rapid decline in immediate energy. Lactic Acid Glycogen Glucose Pyruvic Acid/ Lactic Acid High Intensity Up to 3 minutes 400m 800m Racket sports. Lactic acid is a by-product and can cause rapid fatigue. Aerobic Fat/ glucose mixture Water/ CO2 Low 3 minutes onwards Long distance running/ cycling. This system is limited by availability of O2
9
UNIT 1 - Information Characteristics of the 3 Energy Systems The importance of each source of energy for physical activity depends on: Type of physical activity. Intensity of physical activity. Duration of physical activity. In many aspects of physical activity the 3 energy systems work together at different times to supply the particular type of energy needed.
10
UNIT 1 - Information Oxygen Debt When all the ATP required for muscular contraction cannot be supplied AEROBICALLY, the lactic acid system takes over. The side-effect of the body using this system is that there is a build-up of lactic acid in the muscles and CP stores are depleted – causing fatigue. After strenuous exercise the following have to be completed: O2 stores replaced. ATP replenished. Lactic acid removed. The need for extra O2 after strenuous exercise is known as the O2 DEBT. The body pays off this O2 debt by gulping air into the lungs and panting. As a result, the lactic acid is turned into CO2 and water.
11
Training Energy Systems
UNIT 1 - Information Training Energy Systems Individuals, teachers, coaches need to have a knowledge of energy systems to: Identify needs / demands of the physical activity. Aerobic Anaerobic Act upon those needs train correctly Continuous training Interval training Different methods: Fartlek Weight training Circuit training Flexibility training Plyometrics To help in training effectively we should be able to use MHR (MAXIMUM HEART RATE) ) and VO2 MAX to establish the identified Training Zones and Training Thresholds.
12
Training Energy Systems
UNIT 1 - Information Training Energy Systems To establish TRAINING ZONES the MHR has to be decided: MHR Males = 220 – AGE To gain AEROBIC fitness the exercise should be maintained between 60 and 80% of the established MHR. e.g. 20 year old man 220 – 20 = 200 AEROBIC TRAINING THRESHOLD = 60% OF 200 = 120 HR ANAEROBIC TRAINING THRESHOLD = 80% OF 200 = 160 HR AEROBIC THRESHOLD is the level of exercise where the intensity is sufficient to produce a training effect. ANAEROBIC THRESHOLD is the point where the Aerobic Mechanisms become overloaded and anaerobic metabolism begins to play a major role. The thresholds do vary (marginally). The training zone between 60 and 80% MHR is known as the AEROBIC TRAINING ZONE. Exercising in the zone above the Anaerobic Training Threshold – 80% MHR, means you are in the ANAEROBIC TRAINING ZONE.

Pupil led warm up and pupil led skill micro session. Review of the energy systems and their effects on performance. Consider sport specific energy requirements linked to nutrition and hydration strategies. Record netball game and analyse in relation to quality of performances, positional responsibilities and the different energy demands being made. Consider the effects of intensity and duration of the activity e.g. sprinting, feint dodge, walking back to the restarting of play, and link to energy systems/ positional responsibilities.
