Kinesiology 2230A/B Lecture Notes - Lecture 5: Acclimatization, Thermoregulation, Vo2 Max
Document Summary
Factors in uencing training: bene t gained in systems other than vo2max , strength and power (skill, ef ciency) from increased frequency and duration of training may assist elite athletes. Fitness sport - distance running (all about physiology) The way the muscle adapts - adaptations are speci c to the movement load and speed (velocity of shortening of the muscle) Performance is dictated to how speci c the training you are doing is - changes in both strength and aerobic adaptation: overload continued improvement will not occur unless physiological systems are continuously overloaded. Temperature is constant at a given % vo2max despite greater absolute work (increase in vo2max) Even though you can do more work you do the work at the same % of the vo2 max because the vo2 max has increased - thermoregulation is related to the vo2 max.
