Document Summary

Spare cho: cho levels, specifically glycogen levels dictate when you"ll fatigue. Mitochondria: adaptations happen within the mitochondria itself buffered and get more oxygen in. Consuming more oxygen because kreb"s cal process chos faster so vo2max has the opportunity to increase. Gastroc"s enzyme activity in untrained (ut) subjects, moderately trained (mt) joggers, and highly trained (ht) marathon runners. Looking at enzyme activity and the speed at which a particular reaction can occur as it is related to the activity of the enzymes. All the enzymes in kreb"s cycle increase with the more training someone does: more hydrogen is, thus, available to the etc, the more substrate there is for the etc, the more atp we can form aerobically. Increase in maximal oxygen consumption: looking at volume/day over a 7-month period. Volume: there"s a steady increase in volume over the period: the increase ended up between 7 and 8 thousand m/day and increase linearly.
