Lecture
Aquatics
• also known as water sports
• fun and popular forms of recreational
activity
Importance of Aquatics
• competitive values (athletes)
• therapeutic values (injured)
• physiological values (increases
cardiovascular endurance)
Importance of Aquatics
• safety (sea) and flood casualties
can be avoided if more people know
how to swim

Optimization of Energy
Systems
 Sources of Energy
1. Carbohydrates
2. Fat
3. Protein
 Sources of Energy
1. Carbohydrates
- also known as glycogen
 Sources of Energy
2. Fats
- serves as insulation for the body to
prevent heat loss
 Sources of Energy
3. Protein
- used for the repair and growth of
body tissue
 The ATP Cycle
1. The Phosphocreatine Energy System
2. The Lactic Acid Energy System
3. The Aerobic Energy System
 The ATP Cycle
1. Phosphocreatine Energy System
- used for instantaneous activity
lasting several seconds
 The ATP Cycle
2. Lactic Acid Energy System
- sustains quick burst of high intensity
of activity, up to 90 seconds
 The ATP Cycle
3. Aerobic Energy System
- sustains prolonged activities such as
walking, jogging, swimming, cycling, and
circuit-based weight training
