Training adaptations

ANAEROBIC TRAINING:

• overloads ATP/PC system
• increases muscle stores of ATP/PC
• delays threshold between ATP/PC and lactic acid systems
• increases potential duration of high intensity excercise (up to 2 secs)

ANAEROBIC TRAINING:

• increases body's tolerance to lactic acid

• increases body's stores of glycogen

• delays OBLA blood lactate accumulation

• athletes can work at higher intensities for longer

AEROBIC TRAINING:

• increases storage of muscle and liver glycogen
• increases mobilisation of aerobic enzymes
• uses FFAs as a fuel earlier which conserves glycogen stores
• increases aerobic threshold which increases potential intensity of performance
• delays muscle fatigue
• increases efficiency of lactate removal
