energy systems
anaerobic=occurs with oxygen
glucose-----energy+lactic acid
aerobic=occus without oxygen
long period of time
slow twitch
more than 1 min
low intensity
marathon/cyclists
this type is used when the body contiunes an activity fo a long period of time and the energy to do so is produced by oxygen.
high intensity
glucose+oxygen-----carbon dioxide+water
lactic acid build up
short duration
goalkeeper/javelin/sprinter
this occurs when the body works without sufficent oxygen being supplie. if oxygen isnt supplied this can result in only short burts
last for upto 60 seconds
what is the effect of lactc acid on the body?
A temporary buildup of lactic acid can be caused by vigorous exercise if your body doesn't have enough available oxygen to break down glucose in the blood. This can cause a burning feeling in the muscle groups you're using. It can also cause nausea and weakness
lactic acid= a mild poisonand waste product of anaerobic respiration
