25
Important factors for aerobic endurance performance
1) High VO2max 2) High lactate threshold 3) Good exercise economy 4) High efficiency of using fat as a fuel source 5) High percentage of type 1 muscle fibres
26
VO2 max and performance
There is a threshold point that increasing it more doesn't aid performance
27
Why didn't Lance Armstrong win his first marathon?
Exercise specific economy Cyclists don't easily convert to runners
28
Lactate threshold and perfromance
Want to shift the curve to the right to prolong fatigue at maximal VO2
29
Good exercise economy
Postures and techniques that come with running By increasing maximal output, operational output becomes more efficient (everything at sub-maximal levels)
30
Type 1 muscle fibres
Slow twitch are better for aerobic exercise
31
Aerobic training frequency
2-5 days per week
32
Maintaining aerobic adaptations
Fewer training sessions needed to maintain aerobic adaptations than are required to achieve them
33
Recovery for aerobic exercise
Imp for endurance sports as the development is purely physiological
34
Imp factors for recovery from aerobic training
Rehydration Restoration of fuel CHO intake Sleep Muscle recovery
35
Ways to quantify training intensity
1. Blood lactate 2. HR 3. VO2 4. Modified Borg RPE
36
HRR
Heart rate reserve Directly correlated to VO2
37
Karvonen method of calculating target heart rate
[(220-age)-RHR] Training intensity + RHR
38
