Energy from Foods
We need energy in order to make our muscle fibres contract. Our energy comes from two main sources; Fats and Carbohydrates. Our energy is obtained from the oxidation that takes place in carbohydrate and fat food sources. Oxidation is the combination of a substance and oxygen. Fats and carbohydrates themselves do not form ATP. The energy that is released from these foods are what trigger the binding of ATP.
Fats
Triglyceride is the digested of fat needed for energy production. It is found …show more content…
These types of activities will last between 10 and 15 seconds and will have a high energy intensity. During half time a player will have about a two minute break. During this rest period our energy stores will be replenished and the player will be able to do high intensity activities without fatiguing easily.
Lactic Acid Energy System:
This system can be used during a match for slightly longer activities such as sprinting to tackle for the ball, sprinting down the pitch or running back to your position on the pitch. These types of activities will last between 30 seconds and 3 minutes at a relatively high intensity. To replenish these stores, a player will need to rest for approximately 2 hours.
Aerobic Energy System:
This system will be helpful during a hockey match as it will allow a player to last a whole match due to a slow release of energy to the working muscles. The energy supplied by this system will last for hours and as a player is constantly running during the match, this energy system is very appropriate for this type of long duration …show more content…
A typical session may last 20 minutes to half an hour, including rest periods between sets. Activities like this include:
Shuttle runs- sprinting for 10m to different cones and back, including 2 minute intervals after each set is complete.
Hill sprints- sprint up a hill and run back down. Do this a few times at maximum intensity and take a 2 minute rest interval before repeating this activity again.
Aerobic System:
This is the most effective method of exercise as it aids in weight management and the reduction of risk of illness. This is easily achieved by doing at least 60 minutes of 60% intensity to enable the athlete to carry on for a long period of time. Activities like this include:
Going for a long powerwalk for 40-60 minutes and fully recovering for 24 hours. This recovery is achieved by carrying on with everyday life and sleeping.
Cycling each day for 40-60 minutes and taking the same amount of time for
