Relating the three systems to sport.

A one hundred meter sprint runner would mainly use the ATP system, however if the exercise is ongoing the lactic acid system will start to kick in. This occurs because the runner is completing a short period bust of energy.
A fifteen hundred meter runner would be using the aerobic system because this type of track event is for a long period of time lasting longer that four minutes. This runner will have oxygen flowing to the moving muscles so that the muscles can contract for a longer period of time.
Rugby players use all three systems during their eighty-minute game since they will have to use the ATP-PC system once completing a scrum when the back line gets the ball. This happens because the players need to use a short bust of energy. Lactic acid system will occur before the game ends because the players will sprint forty meter for dfence on to score a try after an interception. Rugby players will also use the aerobic system since they will be running back and forth across the pitch trying to defend their team and about to score a try.
For athletes completing one hundred meter sprint, they should be doing interval training to make them more faster during the event. The training that should be completed would be interval training since during the event the athlete will be working at 95% intensity. The interval training they should be completing five reps or sixty meter sprints with a short rest of thirty seconds or one minute. There are various ways to complete interval training, another could be setting three lines of cones and getting the athletes to run to them. They will all be different lengths from the starting line.
For athletes completing a two hundred meter swim,they should also be doing interval training. But completing the interval training they should be working to their maximum potential since this would be working the lactic acid system. The swimmer should complete various reps of a distance for example five reps of forty meters swim. This allow the athlete to be able to cope with the lactic acid build up.
For athletes completing a fifteen hundred meter sprint, they should be completing continuous training. This would be because the athlete would be able to get used to running for so long and being faster. The type of continuous training that could be completed would be running for twenty to thirty mintues.

The speed of energy produce for creatine phosphate is very fast however, aerobic it is slow and lactic acid is just fast. The energy source for ATP is creatine phosphate; lactic acid is from the glycogen and for the aerobic system is glycogen and fat. The amount of ATP produced is very limited for creatine phosphate because this is for short burst of exercise for eight to ten seconds. For lactic acid is limited again because this system is used anaerobically lasting one to three minutes. Finally for the aerobic system this is unlimited since oxygen travels to the working muscles lasting twenty minutes to two hours. The waste product from using the lactic acid system is lactic acid having a achy feeling, however for the aerobic system the waste produce would be carbon dioxide and water from sweating and breathing out heavily. The recovery time for creatine phosphate is thirty seconds to four minutes, lactic acid it is twenty minutes to two hours and finally for the aerobic system it is until the glycogen stores have been replaced.
We are able to use both systems at the same time this will occur at the start of a exercise using the aerobic system to start off a race then ending using the ATP-PC system because the runners will use the short burst of energy to try and beat any other athletes to win the race. Basically throughout the exercise aerobic system becomes the main supplier of energy to the athletes body.
Strengths & Weaknesses
The strengths in ATP-PC System is that it is quick when it starts and its also high intensity activity which doesnt last long which ia weaknes. Another strength is that the energy store is in the body for the system to react quickly. Another weakness would be recovery time since it takes a minute for the ATP-PC system to recover however, the mental and physical aspect it would take longer for the athlete to go another heat.
The strengths of the lactic acid system would be that it kicks in 3 minutes after completing exercise which again is high tenisty work out or activity. The weakness would be that the latic acid build up occurs and cramps will begin to happen making the athlete not carry on completing the activity. Another weakness would be that the recovery time takes very long since the glycogen levels will need to be returned to the original level this will happen by eating various carbohydrates.
For the aerobic system the strengths would be that it last a long time since oxygen is getting delivered to the working muscles allowing the athletes to work longer. A weakness would be that it becomes harder at the middle and towards the end of the activity since the athlete would be working for long periods of times. Another strength would be that more ATP is created from fat during the duration of the acitivty. Also the another strength would be that carbon dioxide would be removed since the athlete would be working harder and breathing out more frequently.
