| A | B |
| Energy | All forms of energy is associated with motion |
| Mechanical work of muscle contraction | The protein filaments of muscle fibers directly convert chemical energy into mechanical energy. |
| Chemical work | Performed by all cells for growth and maintenance. |
| Transport work | A continual expenditure of stored energy is required to accomplish this "quiet" form of biological work. |
| Potential energy | Energy in position. |
| Kinetic Energy | Energy in motion. |
| Aerobic exercise | Takes place in the presence of oxygen. |
| Anaerobic exercise | (Nonoxidative exercise) involves intense effort of short duration and leads to the production of lactic acid. |
| Lactic acid | A sort of promissory note that insures the repayment of the oxygen debt. |
| Anaerobic Threshold | A commonly used term meant to describe the level of oxygen consumption at which there is a rapid and systematic increase in blood lactate concentration. |
| ATP | Energy currency of the body |
| Slow-Twitch muscle fiber | Is efficient at using oxygen. |
| Fast-oxidative-glycolitic | Is a faster contracting type of fiber that is also capable of using oxygen. |
| Fast-glycolytic muscle fibers | A fiber that isn't well suited for aerobic or oxygen-using metabolism. |
| Maximal Oxygen Intake | The maximal rate at which oxygen can be consumed per minute, the power or capacity of the aerobic or oxygen system. |
| Recovery Oxygen Uptake | The oxygen in excess of the resting value consumed during recovery from exercise, whether it is small from light exercise or large from heavy or exhaustive exercise. |
| Isometric exercise | Type of exercise when the muscle remains the same length. |
| Isokinetic exercise | Type of exercise done with a machine to regulate movement/velocity. |
| Isotonic exercise | Exercise where the muscle changes length. |
| Glycogen | Stored polysaccharide in muscle and other tissues in animals |
| 1 gram of fat | 9kcals |
| 1 gram of protein and CHO | 4kcals |
| Formula for Max Heart Rate | 220-Age |
| FIT Principle | Guidelines for how often, how hard, and how long you should exercise |
| Carbohydrates | Majority of your daily calorics should come from this source |
| Sweetest of monosaccharides | Fructose |
| Fiber | Provides a sense of fullness |
| Bioenergetics | Converting foodstuffs into energy for the body |
| Athletic diets | Need more carbs than sedentary people |
| Endurance Athletes | Possess high % of Slow-twitch fibers |
| Sprinters | Possess high % of fast-twitch muscle fibers |
| Warm-up components | Cardio and flexibility |
| Cool-down importance | Minimize the pooling of the blood |
| Hyperthermia | Excessively high body temp caused by excessive heat production |
| Heatstroke | Most severe form of heat problems |
