The fats and carbohydrates we eat contain energy - this is our food fuel sources. ]]> 2018-04-16 14:48:05 UTC https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252176724 selbycollegespo https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252177355 There are three energy systems: 
- ATP-PC
- The lactate system 
- The aerobic system
Each work in a slightly different way, although all resynthesize ATP. ]]> 2018-04-16 14:49:17 UTC https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252177355 selbycollegespo https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252180025 2018-04-16 14:53:56 UTC https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252180025 selbycollegespo https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252180169 - Short duration

If the body is able to store more creatine, this will allow the system to be used for longer.]]> 2018-04-16 14:57:06 UTC https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252181794 selbycollegespo https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252182608 This systems adapts by building up a tolerance to lactic acid, therefore the muscles do not become fatigued as quickly which extends the length of time this energy system can be used without needing recovery. ]]> 2018-04-16 14:58:32 UTC https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252182608 selbycollegespo https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252183430 - Increased ability to use fats as a food fuel source. 
- Increased storage of glycogen. 
- Increased  umber of mitochondria. 
Each of these adaptations increases our potential for aerobic energy production. ]]> 2018-04-16 15:00:01 UTC https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252183430 selbycollegespo https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252185200 2018-04-16 15:03:10 UTC https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252185200 selbycollegespo https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252185784 2018-04-16 15:04:10 UTC https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252185784 selbycollegespo https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252186253 The ATP-PC recovery time is 2-3 minutes. This is because energy is needed from one of the other systems to replenish the PC stores of the body. 

The lactate system has a recovery time of approximately 8 minutes. This aids the removal of lactic acid and also gives the body time to replace the glycogen stores in the muscle cells. 

The aerobic system recovery time can vary from 2-3 hours to 3 days. This depends on the intensity, duration and the individual's fitness levels.

There is a lack of insulin, or insulin function, so the glucose remains in the blood rather than travelling to the cells. Therefore, diabetes impacts on the amount of energy we can use from the food fuel carbohydrates. ]]> 2018-04-16 15:10:47 UTC https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252189317 selbycollegespo https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252191163 This is when the blood sugars fall too low. Participation in sport can increase the risk of having an attack. This is why people with diabetes must monitor glucose levels before and after activity. ]]> 2018-04-16 15:13:59 UTC https://padlet.com/heartofyorkshireeg/rpf6wdxgy2vu/wish/252191163
