HP midterm CH3

QuestionAnswer
ATP (adenosine triphosphate)Energy released from the breakdown of food creates a compound
Energy The fuel needed for muscle motion/Derived from the breakdown of food
ATP is made and stored in small amounts in muscle and other cells
The breakdown of ATP releases energy in a form that muscles can use for movement
ATP is the only compound in the body that can provide this immediate source of energy; therefore, it must be available for muscles in order for them to contract
Anaerobic and Aerobic Systems Two systems in muscle cells produce ATP
Anaerobic (without oxygen) Provides ATP at the beginning of exercise and for short-term, high-intensity exercise • Produced through glycolysis, the process that breaks down carbohydrates • Can only use carbohydrates as an energy source
Aerobic (with oxygen) The primary system for cardiorespiratory endurance • Relies on oxygen for ATP production • Can use fats, proteins, and carbohydrates to produce ATP • Supports prolonged exercise, with a shift from carbohydrates to fats as the primary energy source
Most daily activities rely on aerobic ATP production
Health Benefits of Cardiorespiratory Endurance (Organic) •Lower risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) • Increased longevity • Reduced risk of type 2 diabetes • Lower blood pressure
Health Benefits of Cardiorespiratory Endurance (Physical) • Increased bone density in weight-bearing bones • Easier weight control
Health Benefits of Cardiorespiratory Endurance (Mental) • Improved self-esteem and body image • Better sleep • Increased energy
Frequency 3–5 times per week
Intensity 50–85% of maximal heart rate
Time/Duration 20–60 minutes per session
Type/mode jogging, cycling, rowing
Measuring intensity-target heart rate – Target heart rate (THR) – Heart rate reserve (HRR)
Borg Rating of Perceived Exertion (RPE) A subjective way of estimating exercise intensity based on a scale of 6 to 20.
Training Threshold The training intensity above which there is an improvement in cardiorespiratory fitness. This intensity is approximately 50% of VO2 max.
Target heart rate (THR) The range of heart rates that corresponds to an exercise intensity of approximately 50%-80% VO2 max. This range results in improvements in aerobic capacity.
Heart rate reserve (HRR) The difference btw the maximal heart rate and resting heart rate.
