    Study Notes

    Energy Systems

    • The ATP-PC energy system provides energy for short, quick bursts of activity.
    • The anaerobic glycolytic system provides energy for activity of moderate intensity and short duration.

    Energy Sources

    • Muscle glycogen is the main source of carbohydrate energy for active muscles during exercise.
    • The main fuel source utilized during exercise is carbohydrates.

    Anaerobic Process

    • The anaerobic process that provides rapid formation of ATP is called myosin ATPase.

    Therapeutic Exercise

    • Therapeutic exercise is defined as a systematic and planned approach to the prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of a wide range of health problems (Taylor, Dodd, Shields & Bruder, 2007).
    • The main goal of therapeutic exercise is to improve function, relieve symptoms, and enhance overall health and well-being.
    • Functional fitness and rehabilitation refers to the process of enhancing an individual's ability to perform daily tasks and activities.

    Physiological Effects

    • Basic exercise physiology affects the cardiovascular, muscular, respiratory, and nervous systems.
    • Therapeutic exercise would be most beneficial for patients with chronic diseases, injuries, or disabilities.

    Exercise Response

    • ATP is resynthesized during exercise in the mitochondria.
    • An increase in the ability to oxidize fats during exercise is led by an increase in mitochondrial density and enzymes.
    • The pituitary gland releases human growth hormone in response to exercise.
    • Specific training leads to a decrease in blood lactate levels during exercise.
