    and Field event that uses various energy systems and muscles. The three energy systems used within all sports include: • ATP – PC System (Anaerobic System): This system works by breaking down food energies (stored in the cells) to produce energy and Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP). From here Phosphate Creatine (found in muscles)‚ a chemical compound‚ combines with ADP to produce more ATP. This system is used best for high intense events using large bursts of energy. • Lactic Acid System (Anaerobic
