Understanding Body Energy Systems

The document discusses how the body produces ATP through three energy systems to enable movement and activity. It explains that basal metabolic rate provides energy for maintaining basic body functions at rest, while working energy is required for voluntary movements. The document also differentiates between aerobic and anaerobic exercises and respiration. Aerobic exercise can be sustained for longer periods and uses oxygen to break down glucose efficiently, while anaerobic exercise causes quick fatigue due to a temporary oxygen debt and less efficient breakdown of glucose without oxygen. Both exercise types provide benefits, with aerobic building endurance and anaerobic improving strength and power.

Lesson 1: ATP: Keep you Moving!


 You want to be active, but it seems you easily get tired.
You are curious to know how to generate more energy to
be part of the school’s varsity team. This lesson will
discuss how our body produces energy that enables us to
perform different daily activities, as well suggested
activities that will enhance our muscles for enhanced
movement.
 At the end of this lesson, you should be able to
● explain the how the three energy systems can
produce Adenosine Trisphosphate Glycolysis that
enables movement; and
● enumerate physical activities that can improve
the production of ATP.
1. Basal Metabolic Rate

 It is a transfer needed to maintain body temperature to keep us alive


with no motion required.
2. Working Energy

 The next transfer of energy is when we work or play. These are


considered voluntary movements. According to a study, “The more
active we are, the more energy we transfer and therefore the more
“fuel” we need in food. The bigger, or more active a person is, the
more energy they will need, and vice versa”.

Lesson 2: Aerobic and Anaerobic Exercises
 Doyou sometimes interchange the terms aerobic
with anaerobic exercises? Which activity uses
more energy, aerobic or anaerobic exercise?
 Themost common exercise people know is
aerobic exercise, activities under this exercise are
characterized as low high or with exertion.
 At the end of the lesson, students should be able
to
● differentiate aerobic to anaerobic respiration; and
● enumerate the benefits of aerobic and anaerobic
exercises for our body.
Learn about It!
 According to an article, “ aerobic exercise
stimulates the heart rate and breathing rate to
increase in a way that can be sustained for the
exercise session. On the other hand, the word
anaerobic , which means without oxygen, is a
form of exercise that causes you to be quickly out
of breath. ”
Anaerobic Respiration
 Anaerobic Respiration is the
process of the quick release
of a limited amount of
energy from the incomplete
breakdown of glucose
without the oxygen.
Anaerobic respiration occurs
when the muscles are forced
to work so hard that the
lungs and bloodstream
cannot deliver enough
oxygen to respire the
available glucose
aerobically.
Anaerobic Respiration
 On the other hand, the building
up of lactic acid can cause
acute fatigue, called oxygen
debt . When there is oxygen
debt, a repaid must be done by
performing continuous deep
breathing after
 Compared to aerobic
respiration, anaerobic is an
inefficient process since it only
produces 1/20 energy.
However, anaerobic produces
energy three times faster and
so is used during high intensity
or explosive activities for short
time. exercise.
 The diagram below enumerates the benefits of the
anaerobic respiration and exercise to our body.
