Which type of relief should be used for ATP-CP (Phosphagen) intervals?

  1. Fast walking

  2. Slow jogging

  3. Rest relief

  4. Both fast walking and slow jogging

The correct answer is: Rest relief

Rest relief should be used for ATP-CP (Phosphagen) intervals because in this type of interval, the intensity and duration of the work interval should be high enough to exhaust the body's ATP-CP energy system. This means that the body needs a longer rest period in order to replenish and recover this energy system before the next work interval. Fast walking or slow jogging may not provide enough rest for the body to fully replenish its ATP-CP system, resulting in reduced performance during the next work interval. Both options A and B may also be too strenuous and could potentially tap into other energy systems, reducing the targeted training effect of the ATP-CP intervals.
