Document Summary

Knes 373 lecture 2 principles of training. No, accumulation of lactate and the time of fatigue do not occur together: ex. Two minutes after a sprint you will have recovered a bit and not be super fatigued but you still have high lactate. True - cardiac output and vo2max both increase with aerobic training: the sarcoplasmic reticulum uses energy to remove calcium from the cytoplasm and end muscle contraction = Training progression or overtraining: overload and recovery leading to either progression or overtraining, overload recovery progression. Improvement does not occur unless you gradually progress the load placed upon an individual: progression. Increased overload: decreased recovery, but we need to avoid overtraining. What"s the optimum overload: we know training works, but we don"t know which training is best. The training response is complex: there are many fixed effects and random effects hat change your response to training, fixed effects = genetics, random effects = epigenetics, nutrition, motivation, environment, health.
