Environmental effects on the body
The recovery process and EPOC (Sam)
marathon runner using the aerobic system
recovery process for the aerobic system would be to glycogen load again as there would be little amount of glycogen left from the race.they may also use ice baths to vasodilate arterioles to remove lactic acid.
800m runner using the glycolytic system
recovery process for a athlete using the glycolytic system w
100m runner using the atp-pc system
the recovery process for a athlete using the atp-pc system
Effects of heat on the CV and Respiratory systems
Strategies to maintain performance (Myles)
Effects of altitude and acclimatization
(Millie)
Acclimatization
A process where the athlete gradually adapts to a change in their environment which is essential for endurance athletes.
Benefits
Releases erythropoietin which increases red blood cells
Increased oxygen transportation
Increased oxygen consumption
Breathing rate and ventilation remains the same straight after
Stroke volume and cardiac output reduces :
Altitude
As altitude increases the barometric pressure of the air decreases, this has a significant impact on gaseous exchange and oxygen. The percentage of oxygen in the air stays the same but pressure reduces.
Systems
Cardiovascular
Blood plasma volume decreases
Increased density of red blood cells
Stroke volume decreases
Heart rate increases
Maximum cardiac output at high intensity
Respiratory
Increased breathing rate at rest and exercise, reduction in VO2 max which is the maximum oxygen breathed in or used, demand for anaerobic system increases and early fatigue
Training and strategies to enhance performance (Jennifer)
Fast & Slow Components of Recovery
Fast Alactacid Component
Components of Diagram:
Large O2 Debt
O2 supply does not meet demand, lactic acid accumulates meaning OBLA is met faster
EPOC then needs t be large enough to contradict this
Slow Lactacid Component
Components of the Diagram:
Small amount of O2 Debt
Steady state oxygen consumption is quickly met
Limiting the use of anaerobic energy systems and lactic acid build up
