Effect Of Training On The Anaerobic Energy System

Slideshow Transcript

1. Slide 1:
2. Slide 2:Energy can be defined as the capacity of a physical system to do work. Energy is fundamental to everyday living and exercise. The word anaerobic can be defined as something that is ‘capable of living without oxygen”. The anaerobic system can be indirectly assessed by performance tests such as the vertical jump and the step test. Vertical jump test
3. Slide 3:The anaerobic system consists of both the ATP-PC system and the Lactic acid system. The ATP-PC system is used only for very short durations of up to 10 seconds. The ATP-PC system neither uses oxygen nor does it produce lactic acid. Adenosine triphosphate works together with creatine phosphate to increase the capacity of the ATP-PC system ATP stands for Adenosine triphosphate and is also known as the Alactacid system. After 5- 10 seconds of maximal work the supply is depleted, and another energy system is used. As th
