Question 15

responses to training

Answer 15

heart rate - how quickly - large spike, then platform to intensity - decrease quickly then slowly
ventilation rate - directly corresponds with intensity
stroke volume - 63% then plateau - how much - before HR - gradual decrease
cardiac ouput - HR and SV - pressure - blood pumped per min - increase, stabilise as SV just before HR, then lower as SV decreases
lactate - inc acidity of muscle cells - harder to convert energy - primarily anaerobic training as lactic acid system

goals/motivation, prevent injury, monitor heath trends, assessing heatlh

aerobic - 60-75%MHR usual, 80-85% to push aerobic close to anaerobic - 85-95% to work and improve anaerobic - 50-60% to build aerobic base - challenge cardiovasuclar system, imrpove oxygen delivery, improve muscular strength
