Metabolic Adaptations

to Training

How Can We Maximize


Our Potential To
Perform?
Adaptations To Aerobic
Training

➤ Increase size of ST muscles


➤ FTb fibers take on FTa
characteristics
➤ Increase capillary density
➤ Increase myoglobin up to 75%
➤ Increase size and number of
mitochondria
➤ Increase enzyme activity
➤ Muscles store more glycogen
➤ Muscles store more triglyceride
➤ Glycogen sparing effect
Training The Aerobic
System

➤ Frequency
➤3 - 5 days a week
➤ 700 - 900 Kcal a day, no more

➤ Intensity
➤ 50 - 85% of VO2 max or (HRR)
➤ intervals with short rest periods
➤ continuous training has advantage

➤ Time
➤ volume of training stresses energy
levels for adaptation
➤ Specificity
Adaptations To
Anaerobic Training

➤ Increased ATP-PCr use (5s)


➤ Increased strength
➤ Increased enzyme activity (30s)
➤ Efficiency of movement
➤ Increased aerobic capacity
which decreases lactic acid
➤ Increased buffering of lactic
acid which decreases fatigue
