Please Note - Clarification of Terminology

Lactic acid is NOT a energy system and therefore lactic acid SHOULD NOT be used by students as a type of energy system.  The correct terms for the three energy systems, as identified in the study design, are the:

  • 'ATP-PC' system,
  • 'Anaerobic Glycolysis' and the
  • 'Aerobic' energy system.

For assessment purposes lactic acid is NOT acceptable terminology to identify the 'Anaerobic Glycolysis' energy system.
