Cards

Term
Oxidative System
Definition
Primary source of ATP at rest and low-intensity workouts and primarily uses proteins and carbs
Term
Krebs Cycle
Definition
A series of reactions that continue the oxidation of the substrate begun in glycolysis and produces 2 ATPs from GTP
Term
Electric Transport Chain (ETC)
Definition
Term
Cytochromes
Definition
A series of electron carries used in the ETC
Term
Oxidative Phosphorylation
Definition
Term
Beta Oxidation
Definition
A series of reactions in which the free fatty acids are broken down, resulting in the formation of acetyl CoA and hydrogen atoms
Term
Branched Chain Amino Acids
Definition
Amino acids that are oxidized in the skeletal muscle
Term
Exercise intensity
Definition
The level of muscular activity that can be quantified in terms of power
Term
Energy substrates
Definition
Molecules that provide starting materials for bioenergetic reactions (ATP, creatine phosphate, glucose etc)
Term
Oxygen Deficit
Definition
The anaerobic contribution to the total energy cost of exercise
Term
Oxygen Debt
Definition
Postexercise oxygen uptake
Term
Excess postexercise oxygen consumption (EPOC)
Definition
the oxygen uptake above resting values used to restore the body to pre exercise conditions
Term
Interval training
Definition
Based on the concept that more work can be performed at higher exercise intensities with the same of less fatigue than continuous training
Term
Combination Training
Definition
Aerobic training being mixed with anaerobic training because recovery relies primarily on aerobic mechanisms
