Rate, Speed at which energy can be provided to resynthesise ADP to ATP, Yield, The amount of energy required for a task, Food fuels, Carbohydrates, Fats,, Chemical Fuels, PC, Glycogen, Triglycerides, ATP-PC System, Energy system that resynthesises ATP at the fastest rate but lowest yield, Anaerobic Glycolysis System, Energy system that resynthesises ATP at a fast rate but low yield, Aerobic System, Energy system that resynthesises ATP at a slow rate but highest yield, Glycogen, Main fuel for aerobic system for events lasting up to 90 minutes in duration, Triglycerides, Fuel used when at rest and aerobic events lasting over 2 hours, Passive recovery, Recovery involving little to no movement (standing/sitting), Active recovery, Moving at low intensity immediately post exercise, Thermoregulatory Fatigue, The fatigue resulting from an inability to maintain a stable body temperature, H+ ions, By-product of the Anaerobic glycolysis system that creates a burning sensation in muscles, Heat, By-product of the aerobic system, PC depletion, Cause of fatigue for the ATP-PC system, CHO loading, Ingesting increased amounts of CHO in the days leading up to an event to maximise glycogen stores, Co-ingestion of protein and CHO, glycogen at the muscle site, allowing athletes to recover at a faster rate than consuming CHO alone, Co-ingestion of water and CHO, enhance the absorption rate of CHO and faster restoration of muscle glycogen
