Aerobic Endurance Exercise Training Flashcards
Factors related to aerobic endurance performance 3
Vo2 max, lactate threshold, exercise economy
Lactate threshold
Point at which blood lactate begins to increase over resting levels
Exercise economy
Measure of the energy cost of activity at a given exercise velocity
Step 1
Exercise mode
Exercise mode
Specific activity performed by the athlete. The more specific the mode the greater the improvement in performance
Step 2
Frequency
How frequent to improve vo2 max?
More than twice a week
Sep 3
Training intensity
High intensity increases
CV and resp function and o2 delivery
With high intensity, greater type 2 recruited. Allows…
Them to become more aerobic ally trained
Most frequently used for prescribing aerobic exercise intensity
Heart rate
HRR=
Max HR- RHR
Step 4
Exercise duration
Duration influenced by
Intensity. Inversely
Step 5

Types of gaining programs (5)
LSD, pace tempo, interval, repetition, fartlek
LSD % vo2 max
70%
Distance for LSD
Longer than race distance
