Metabolic Adaptations to Training How Can We Maximize Our Potential To Perform?
Adaptations To Aerobic Training • Increase size of ST muscles • FTb fibers take on FTa characteristics • Increase capillary density • Increase myoglobin up to 75% • Increase size and number of mitochondria • Increase enzyme activity • Muscles store more glycogen • Muscles store more triglyceride • Glycogen sparing effect
Training The Aerobic System • Frequency • 3 - 5 days a week • 700 - 900 Kcal a day, no more • Intensity • 50 - 85% of VO2 max or (HRR) • intervals with short rest periods • continuous training has advantage • Time • volume of training stresses energy levels for adaptation • Specificity
Adaptations To Anaerobic Training • Increased ATP-PCr use (5s) • Increased strength • Increased enzyme activity (30s) • Efficiency of movement • Increased aerobic capacity which decreases lactic acid • Increased buffering of lactic acid which decreases fatigue
