Factors Related to Aerobic Endurance Performance
|
1. Max aerobic power- VO2max (duration of aerobic endurance event increases=proportion of total energy demand increases
2. lactate Threshold-the % of VO2max at which lactate levels begin to increase/accumulate in large amounts 3. exercise economy-energy cost of activity at a given velocity (expend less energy) |
|
maximal lactate steady state
|
the exercise intensity at which maximal lactate production is equal to maximal lactate clearance within the body
|
|
what improvement can enhance maximal aerobic power(vo2max) and lactate threshold?
|
improved exercise economy
|
|
1. Which of the following adaptations occur as an outcome of an aerobic endurance training program?
I. Increased Oxygen delivery to working tissues II. Higher rate of aerobic energy production III. Greater utilization of fat as a fuel source IV. Increased disturbance of the acid-base balance |
I. Increased Oxygen delivery to working tissues
II. Higher rate of aerobic energy production III. Greater utilization of fat as a fuel source |
|
3. Which of the following is the method most commonly used to assign and regulate exercise intensity?
a. Oxygen consumption b. Heart rate c. Ratings of perceived exertion d. Race pace |
b. Heart Rate
|
|
what are the aerobic endurance training program design variables?
|
step 1: exercise mode
step 2: training frequency step 3: training intensity step 4: exercise duration step 5: exercise progression |
|
research has shown that it is necessary to train how many times per week to increase VO2max
|
more than 2x per week
|
|
Using the Karvonen method, what is the target heart rate for a 30-year-old male aerobically exercising at 80% of his functional capacity if his resting heart rate is 60bpm?
|
164 bpm
formula: [(HRR x Exs Intensity) + RHR] 220-30=190 HRR=190-60=130 [(130x.80) + 60]=164 |
|
what is the heart rate reserve formula
|
HRR= max HR - resting HR
|
|
All of the following are physiological differences between elite long-distance cyclists and elite Olympic weightlifters EXCEPT:
a. Age-predicted HR max b. Estimated VO2 max c. Cross-sectional area of the triceps brachii muscle d. Proportion of Type I to Type II muscle fibers |
Age-predicted HR Max
|
|
Using the Karvonen formula, what is the target heart rate of a 40-year-old female athlete (with a resting heart rate of 80 beats per minute) who is prescribed and exercise training intensity of 60%?
|
140bpm
formula: MHR=180 HRR=180-80=100 [(100 x .60)+80]=140 |
|
One MET is equal to =
|
3.5 ml/kg/min of O2 consumption
it is considered the amount of O2 required by the body at rest |
|
Long, Slow Distance Training is equivalent to=
|
approximately 70% Vo2max or 80% max HR
|
|
this type of training employes an intensity at or slightly higher than race competition intensity and corresponds with the lactate threshold
|
Pace/Tempo Training
(threshold training or aerobic/anaerobic interval training) |
|
what are the 2 way to conduct Pace/Tempo Training?
|
1. steady-continuous intensity equal to the lactate threshold for 20-30 minutes
2. intermittent-intensity is equal to lactate threshold but is done is shorter intervals with brief recovery periods (also called tempo intervals, cruise intervals and threshold training) |
|
what is the purpose of pace/tempo training
|
to stress the athlete at a specific intensity and improve energy production from both aerobic and anaerobic metabolism
|
|
what is the primary objective for pace/tempo training
|
enhance the body systems' ability to sustain exercise at that pace (this training involves the same pattern of MF recruitment as competition)
|
|
what are the benefits of pace/tempo training
|
improved running economy
increased lactate threshold |
|
2. Which of the following types of training is conducted at an intensity equal to the lactate threshold?
a. Pace/tempo b. Interval c. Repetition d. Fartlek |
a. pace/tempo
|
|
-this type of training involves exercise at an intensity close to VO2 max
-work intervals should be no longer than 5 minutes -W:R =1:1 |
Interval Training
|
|
What are the benefits from interval training
|
increased VO2max
enhanced anaerobic metabolism |
|
conducted at intensities greater than VO2max
Work intervals lasting btw 30-90 seconds recovery periods 4-6 times as long as work intervals W:R= ~1:5 frequency 1x week |
Repetition Training
REPS |
|
What are the benefits of REPS
|
-improved running speed
-enhanced running economy -increased capacity for and tolerance of anaerobic metabolism |
|
This type of training is beneficial for the final kick or push of an aerobic endurance race?
|
REPS
|
|
A runner is using repetition to improve her final kick in a 10km (6.2mile)race. Which of the following describes this type of training?
I. frequency: 1x/week II. work: rest ration: 1:1 III. intensity: greater than VO2max IV. work bout duration: 3-5 minutes |
Frequency 1x week
intensity greater than VO2max |
|
a combination of several types of training with in the work out
challenges all systems of the body and may help reduce boredom/monotony |
Fartlek Training
(ex: LSD run with fast burst of 85-90% max VO2 or hills) |
|
Fartlek training enhances
|
vo2max
increases LT improves running economy and fuel utilization |
|
what should the Off-Season (base training) be composed of in an aerobic training program
|
long-duration low intensity work outs with progression to higher intensity
duration should be increased but not more that 5-10% per week |
|
What is the focus of pre-season in an aerobic training program
|
increasing intensity, maintaining or reducing duration
incorporating all types of training into the program strengths and weaknesses of the individual athlete should determine the amount and frequency of each type of training |
|
In season training includes:
|
low intensity short duration training
days should precede scheduled competitions for full recovery continue to improve strengths/weaknesses |
|
The longest aerobic endurance training sessions should be performed during which sport season?
|
off season
|
|
when the athlete experiences a loss of the physiological adaptations brought about by training
|
detraining
|
|
4. The loss of physiological adaptations upon the cessation of training is and example of
a. Specificity of training b. Cross-training c. Detraining d. Tapering |
c. detraining
