The three main functions of the Cardiorespiratory system are.....

• 1) Increasing oxygen deficit

  2) Maintaining steady state exercise

  3) Improving EPOC (excess post-exercise oxygen consumption)

• 1) Adjusting Respiratory Exchange Ratio

  2) Utilizing the 5 health related fitness components

  3) Improving tidal volume

• 1) Getting Oxygen to the blood

  2) Delivering oxygen to the active tissues

  3) Extracting oxygen

The 5 concepts of physical fitness are....

• 1) Aerobic Glycolysis

  2) Phosphagen system

  3) Anaerobic Gycolysis

  4) ATP

  5) Amino Acids

• 1) Muscular strength

  2) Muscular endurance,

  3) Flexibility

  4) Cardiovascular endurance

  5) Body composition

• 1) Respiratory Exchange Ratio

  2) 3 Energy Systems

On your way to spring break, the car you and your friends are riding in gets a flat tire. You quickly realize that there is no jack in the trunk so, with your muscular strength, you have to lift the car so your friend can change the tire. Unfortunately you can’t hold up the car more than 10 seconds at a time. Eventually you have no energy left and you have to call a tow truck.

Which energy system is most likely being utilized and why? Explain your thinking using the terminology of the energy system.

• The Phosphagen System

• Anaerobic Glycolysis

• Aerobic Glycolysis

During a spring break dance party the DJ is playing all of your favorite music and you can’t help but go out and dance. After about 2 hours of continuous dancing, you realize you are sweaty and your tidal volume is increased but you never really needed to stop and rest.

Which energy system was most likely being utilized?

• Aerobic Glycolysis

• Phophagen System

• Anaerobic Glycolysis

After an all night dance party, you and your friends go hang out at a house that is only about a block away from where you live. Because you had to lift a car multiple times and then danced for two straight hours, you quickly fall asleep. You wake up and notice that you only have 4 minutes to make it home before curfew so you bolt out of the house and run home. Fortunately you make it on time but you are exhausted.

Which energy system is most likely being utilized ?

• Phosphagen System

• Anaerobic Glycolysis

• Aerobic Glycolysis
