Energy Systems and Training Zones

ATP-CP System

anaerobic energy, no oxygen, ATP and CP broken down to release energy - no longer than 10 seconds - e.g. throwing/jumping/sprinting

1 of 8

Lactic Acid System

Anaerobic energy, no oxygen, carbohydrates, high intensity, 10 seconds-3 minutes - fast running up to 3 minutes

2 of 8

Aerobic System

Aerobic energy, oxygen required, carbohydrates, moderate intensity exercise, 3 muniutes+ - long distance running, being able to last a full game

3 of 8

Oxygen Debt

After anaerobic exercise, body needs extra O2 to get rid of lactic acid. Air is gulped in, lactic acid is turned into CO2, H2O and lactate.

4 of 8

Threshold of training

Levels of intensity which exercise begins to have an effect on the body

5 of 8

Training zones

There are 2 aerobic training zones and an anerobic training zone.

6 of 8

Aerobic training zone

Aerobic exercise working between 60%-80% of MHR

7 of 8

Anaerobic training zone

Anaerobic exercise working about 80% of MHR
