Question 28

HIGH ALTITUDE TRAINING

Component trained

Answer 28

Cardiovascular endurance

Question 29

HIGH ALTITUDE TRAINING

Involves

Answer 29

Effective form of aerobic training

Good for endurance athletes as carried out at high alights

Question 30

HIGH ALTITUDE TRAINING

What is it

Answer 30

There is less ixygen at high altitude so the oxygen carrying capacity of blood is reduced and more blood is made to carry oxygen so when back to sea level their are additional red blood cells to carry oxygen and so more oxygen can be delivered to working muscles quicker

Question 31

HIGH ALTITUDE TRAINING

Limitations

Answer 31

Expensive to travel
Fitness can be loaded at high altitude
Altitude sickness can arise
Benefits are lost quickly

Question 32

HIGH ALTITUDE TRAINING

Advantages and benefits

Answer 32

Increasing oxygen capacity helps performers perform better but it’s soon lost
Good for endurance athletes or game players who need to work anaerobically
