It is evaluated by the maximal volume of oxygen that can be consumed in a given time per kilogram of body mass
VO2 max (ml/min/kg)
264
Q

Name the three factors contributing to high aerobic power

A

1) Cardiac output (HR x stroke volume)
2) Arterial oxygen content
3) tissue oxygen extraction

265
Q

What does arterial oxygen content depend on?

A

Depends on ventilation & O2 carrying the capacity of blood

266
Q

How do we determine the tissue oxygen extraction? how could we increase it?

A

Arterial minus venous O2 difference

Increase by more myoglobin

267
Q
  • At rest CHO & Fats use __:___ for energy
  • Short duration of exercise = nearly all ___
  • Mild/severe exercise = more ___ than ___
  • Prolonged less intense exercise = more ___
A

50:50
CHO
more CHO than fat
Fat

268
Q

Which two ways can we test the power of our Anaerobic Alactate System? (stored phosphocreatine)

A

1) Margaria Test (12 stair sprint - measuring velocity between step 8 and 12)
2) Quebec Test (bicycle ergometer - 10 sec)

269
Q

In which way can we test the power of our Anaerobic Energy System? (alactate & lactate)

A

Wingate Test ( 30 sec all out bicycle ergometer test - gaz and blood samples)

270
Q

We can compare capacity of the Anaerobic Energy systems (alactate & lactate) by:

  • timing a series of __ short distance sprints (40 m) (with rests of __ sec in between)
  • calculate average velocity of the first __ sprints
  • Calculate average velocity of the last __ sprints
  • by dividing the final 3’s average, by 1st 3’s average and express as %, (you are showing _________________________)
A
  • 10, 25 sec
  • 3
  • 3
  • the ratio of how the last sprints compared to the first ones
271
Q

Competitive athletes Anaerobic Energy System:

  1. Superior =
  2. Good =
  3. Sub-par =
  4. Poor =
A
  1. > 90%
  2. 85-89%
  3. 80-84%
  4. <79%
272
Q

How can we assess the Aerobic Energy System?

A

Step tests, running tests, swimming tests, cycling tests, treadmill tests, etc.

273
Q

How can we expect s training adaptation?

A

If you exercise frequently at a level greater than your normal habitual level
**In other words, you must stress of “load” your body’s tissues

274
Q

Adaptation to training:
- Tissues are ______, then ______
- Restoration is usually to a ____ level than before
.. which is also called _____ (or __________)
- To get continued adaptations, you must ___________ your “loading”

A
  • depleted, then restored
  • higher
  • Compensation (or super compensation)
  • Progressively increase
275
Q

Adaptations to training (Loading):

  • Speed, power, coordination are what?
  • Morphological (size and shape)
    • _______ of muscle, tendon
    • _______ (higher density)
  • What type of adaptation has increased glycogen stores, and red blood cells?
A
  • Function (neural adaptations)
    • Hypertrophy
    • Bone accretion
  • Metabolic (anaerobic, aerobic)
