Abstract

In the section "Energy Systems in Physical Activity," the focus is on the biological processes that fuel muscle contraction and movement, playing a critical role in physical activity and athletic performance. It specifically emphasizes three key energy systems: the Phosphagen System, Glycolytic System, and Oxidative System. Each system is described based on its function, duration of efficacy, and contribution to various levels of physical exertion. The Phosphagen System supplies immediate energy for brief, high-intensity activities, the Glycolytic System supports moderate to high-intensity activities lasting around two minutes, and the Oxidative System is crucial for prolonged, low to moderate-intensity tasks. The historical development of these ideas is also explained, highlighting important scientific breakthroughs and progress in comprehending energy metabolism. Furthermore, it explores the physical adjustments to training, the merging of energy systems during sustained physical activity, and their real-world uses in sports and exercise training. The thorough understandings seek to provide professional with the information needed to enhance performance and stamina while reducing the risks of tiredness and injury.
