_______ is stored in the muscles and is broken down to replenish ATP stores.

CP

What activities use ATP-CP for energy?

a block start in 50-M freestyle

Glycolysis

vitamins E and C and selenium

What is the recommended amount of exercise

150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) a week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity provides substantial health benefits for adults by reducing the risk of many chronic diseases - though as little as 60 minutes a week of moderate-intensity activity offers some health benefits -To gain additional health benefits, such as a lower risk of colon and breast cancer, up to 300 minutes (5 hours) per week of moderate-intensity physical activity

T or F: Athletes should eat immediately after training.

True

How much glycogen is stored in the liver?

60-120g

How is ATP made?

ADP is regenerated to ATP in the mitochondria of the cell when creatine phosphate donates a phosphate molecule. Creatine phosphate is a quick source of phosphate with a dual role in energy production. Energy is directly produced when the phosphate group is removed from the creatine phosphate molecule.

When the end phosphate is hydrolyzed from an _________ molecule, ADP is formed, and energy is released.

ATP

What kind of exercises use fat for energy?

At low-intensity exercise, the body uses mostly free fatty acids in the blood (released from adipose tissue), rather than fatty acids stored in muscle, for energy. During moderate-intensity exercise, the body begins to use more fatty acids from muscle triglycerides and less fatty acids released from adipose tissue.

carbohydrate loading

diet and training strategy that maximizes glycogen stores in the body before and endurance event

Frequency

how often an individual performs the activity, such as the number of times per week

Carbohydrate is the predominant fuel used during high-intensity, short-duration, anaerobic exercise. It provides energy to the working muscle either through blood glucose, stored glycogen in the muscles and the liver, or the consumption of dietary carbohydrates

What should you consume a couple hours before exercising?

Complex carbohydrates like whole-grain rice and pasta, oatmeal, and whole wheat are ideal because they take longer to digest than simple carbohydrates and enter the bloodstream much more slowly, thereby providing a sustained source of energy.
