Q

What occurs physiologically during anaerobic sprint efforts?

A
  1. Rapid decrease in PCr as it supplies energy to resythesize ATP
  2. Aerobic glycolysis stimulated to supply energy
  3. Lactate and H+ produced which decreased pH (increases acidity)
  4. Anaerobic glycolytic system starts to fatigue, aerobic sources called on but the rate will have to slow.

Q

What are the metabolic Glycolytic system adaptations to anaerobic training?

A
  • increase phosphorylase (PHOS) following training (prolonged or short sprints)
  • increase phosphofructokinase (PFK) activity following training (prolonged or combination sprints)
  • increase lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)
  • overall = increase glycolytic enzymes -> increase rate and duration of energy supply

Q

What are the changes in resting metabolites with anaerobic training?

A
  • ATP may decrease following high volume/intensity
  • ATP:ADP decreases with heavy training
    leads to: - increase adenylate kinase reaction to energy supply
    - increase myoadenylate deaminase reaction
    = loss of purine bases to resynthesize ATP
  • increase lactate and H+ with high intensity exercise utilizing anaerobic glyoclytic pathways
  • increase in H+ = decrease pH = acidic - fatigue
  • increase monocarboxylate transporters (MCT)
  • increased Max Hla- = better clearance

Q

What are the changes to sacroplasmic reticulum with anaerobic training?

A
  • possibly leads to increased SR volume due to increase in Type II fibres
17
Q

What is W’?

A

the finitite work capacity above CP

  • potential maxmim capacity for a set amount of power and time
  • with an increase in intensity time will decrease and vice versa
18
Q

What is Critical power?

A
  • point between the heavy-intensity domain (after LT2) and severe-intensity domain (70-90% VO2max)
19
Q

Describe the effect of altering interval duration and rest/recovery time on the energy system contributions

A
  • insufficient rest between efforts leads to build up of fatiguing metabolites and insufficient recovery of energy systems
  • short sprints with minimal recovery or prolonged sprints with relatively short recovery = increased contribution of oxidative system -> limits work rate
  • prolonged sprints with short recovery = aerobic = increase in type I fibres and less increase in type II
  • short sprint = increase type II fibres
20
Q

Describe the effect of altering the recovery time between interval training sessions on subsequent adaptations

A
  • increased days between sessions may improve myokinase response for ATP resynthesis
  • more frequent training = increase Type I musc. fibres
  • less frequent training = increase Type II musc. fibres
  • anaerobic training everyday may not lead to greatest improvements, we must allow time for recovery
