  • LACTIC ACID SYTEM
    Relies on store muscle glycogen to resynthesise ATPS for energy THROUGH ANEROBIC GLYCOLOSIS
  • what type of exercise use the lactic acid system
    moderate intensity/time period
  • ANEROBIC GLYCOLOSIS
    1. Carbs breakdown into glycogen and is stored in muscles
    2. LA system is triggered, then glycogen is converted to glucose
    3. Glucose turns inti 2 x A P P P (ATP)
  • SOURCE OF FUEL FOR LACTIC ACID SYSTEM
    Stored muscle glycogen
  • ATP PRODUCTION EFFICIENCY IN LACTIC ACID SYSTEM
    moderate - fast and short
  • DURATION OF OPERATION?
    30 SECS - 3 MINS
  • CAUSE OF FATIGUE IN LACTIC ACID SYSTEM
    No fatigue IF duration is less than 3 mins otherwise lactic acid/pyruvic acid build up
  • BY PRODUCTS OF ENERGY PRODUCTION IN LACTIC ACID SYSTEM
    Lactic & pyruvic acid
  • PROCESS/RATE OF RECOVERY OF LACTIC ACID SYSTEM
    O2 clears acid - 30 - 60 minutes to full recovery
