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.
