Adaptations - Coggle Diagram
Adaptations
Increased Myoglobin store
Myoglobin is a type of heamoglobin
Used exclusivly for the muscles
Carrys oxygen to the muscles through the blood stream
Carrys oxygen to the mitrochondria
Increased Glycogen store
Glycogen is needed to get energy
As the body adapts it can produce and hold more Glycogen
This means you can train harder for longer
Dose not require oxygen
Increased Fat store
Produce energy
aerobic glycolysis
Breaks fat down into acids which turns it into energy
Increased fat storage
Hypertrophy
Increased muscle size and increased strength
Overload the muscles
Increased protein in the muscles increases that strength and size of muscle fibres
Increased force
Increased mitrochondria size and number
Mirochondria are responcible for energy production
On increase in fibre size means there is more room for more and larger mitrochondria
Increased lactate tolerance
Anerobic training stimulates the muscle and clears the acid away at a quicker and more efficent rate
Higher intensity for longer times
Increased tendon strength
Like muscles tendons adapt to the overloading
Tendons increase is flexability and in strength
