Q

Describe specificity and progression in a training program

A

Specificity: geared towards demand of activity eg certain muscles of fitness component used, age ability current fitness level

Progression: bodies adapt so training gradually increases over time

Q

What factors affect VO2 max the efffect and why

A

Physiological make up: greater the efficiency of body stakes to transport and utilize O2=higher VO2 max
: stronger respiratory muscles, larger heart, higher SV, increased RBC and capillaries, SO Fibres= higher VO2 max

Age: from age 20 VO2 max drops by 1% each year
: efficiency lost in elasticity of heart, blood vessels and lung tissue= lower VO2 max

Gender: females lower then males
: females have higher body fat, smaller lung volumes, lower haemoglobin levels= lower VO2 max

Training: aerobic training increases VO2 max up to 20%
: aerobic training causes long term adaptations to heart lung and blood= higher VO2 max
