18
Q
Waldron et al., 2010 - GPS Systems
A
- reliability of current devices is constantly evaluated
- user caution is needed to utilise equipment to assess sprinting activity
19
Q
Brooks et al., 1990 - Lab Methods for Investigating Intermittent Exercise
A
- many studies use protocols that replicate typical patterns of multiple sprint activities but remain well controlled in a lab environment
- facilitates better insight into physiology of games
- focus of this work has dealt with metabolic and cardio-respiratory responses to repeated bouts of max-ex with some work on diet manipulation
20
Q
Power Output During Intermittent Maximal Exercise
A
- power output during a sprint can be many times more than that achieved during a test of VO2max
21
Q
Gaitanos et al., 1983 - Power Output
A
- PPO during 6s cycle sprint 5x greater than power output at VO2max
- subsequent sprints with insufficient recovery produce significant reductions in power output
22
Q
Gaitanos et al., 1983 - Energy and Fuel Use
A
- sprint 1 energy production (mmol ATP/kg dm) 89.3±13.4, sprint 10 = 31.6±14.7
- ATP utilisation, sprint 1 = 6.3%, sprint 10 = 3.8%
- Glycolysis sprint 1 = 44.1%, sprint 10 = 16.1%
- PCr utilisation sprint 1 = 49.6%, sprint 10 = 80.1%
23

Bracken and Brooks, 2010 - Intermittent Sprint Training
- 3 sessions (~45min-1hour) per week for 7 weeks
- test consisted of 10x6s cycle sprints with 30s recovery between each sprint
- pedal revolution and power output increase following 7 weeks of sprint training
- 14% increase in work done (P=0.005)
30
Jenkins et al., 1994 - Sprint Ability Improvements After 3 Weeks Training
-10x6s cycle sprint, 24s passive recovery, 3 times per week for 3 weeks (9 sessions)
- power output improved with sprint training
- Blac was increased following training
- no change in blood pH
- greater PO was due to improved GMP, but the increase in Blac suggests greater anaerobic glycolysis
- unaltered pH suggests improved intramuscular buffering preventing an increase in acidoses and this would facilitate a quicker PCr resynthesis
- resting muscle glycogen increased 26%
- resting citrate synthase increased 38%
- 2 weeks of SIT increases muscle oxidative potential and doubles endurance capacity during intense cycling
31
Aerobic Adaptations to Intermittent Training
Greater VO2max derived from changes in:
- cardiac and skeletal muscle hypertrophy
- angiogenesis
- hypervolemia
- muscle oxidative metabolism
- fuel storage (muscle and glycogen and TG's)
32
Anaerobic Adaptations to Intermittent Training
- Burgomaster et al., 2005 = greater capacity for muscle glycogen storage
- Jenkins et al., 1994 = greater buffering to reduce drop in blood pH and allow for continued PCr resynthesis
33
Hypoxia Definition
- a state in which oxygen is not available in sufficient amounts at the tissue level to maintain adequate homeostasis
34
Hypervolemia Definition
- a condition where your body has too much fluid
35
Angiogenesis Definition
- the formation of new blood vessels
