ANAEROBIC ENERGY SYSTEM

GROUP 6

Energy
Energy capacity for work, comes from food
which is converted to fuel in the bodys cells
through a complex chemical process called
metabolism
METABOLISM foods are broken down into
nutrients and stored in the bodys cells where
they are converted into adenosine triphosphate
(ATP)
Our body stores very little ATP but fortunately is
continually making it

Energy fitness
Energy fitness- ability of the energy system to
use the energy the body has stored
As energy fitness improves, the body is able
to convert stored energy in the form of carbo
and fat into ATP and more efficiently use ATP
within the cells to generate energy
There are 3 energy systems for generating ATP
: Phosphagen, Anaerobic, Aerobic

Phosphagen System
ATP used to contract muscle, build new tissue,
transports
