adaptations
increase myoglobin
type of haemoglobin
found exclusively in muscles
responsible for binding and storing oxygen in the blood
myoglobin will transport oxygen to mitochondira which will turn oxygen into energy
increase glycogen storage
means you can train harder and longer
as your body adapts to exerscie you can store more glycogen in your body
your body needs glycogen as a steady constant supply of energy
glycogen turns into glucose when exercising this allows you to use more energy and train longer
increase tendon strength
cartilage becomes thicker
like muscles tendons adapt to the overloading of regular exercise
designed to withstand tension
tendons with increase flexibility and strength with regular exercise
hyper trophy
increase muscle size and strenght
muscles overloaded this will increase muscle strength and size
muscles become larger due to increase in protein
increase number of mitochondria
increase fibre size more room for mitochondria
responsible for energy production
this means an increase in muscles being able to produce more aerobic energy
increase tolerance of lactate acid threshold
anaerobic training stimulates the muscle to become better able to tolerate lactic acid and clear it away better
during exercise the muscles clear away lactate at a fast rate this means you can perform better and for longer
fat storage increase
you can use fat storage to use as energy through aerobic glycolysis
well train athletes can breaking these down into fatty acids and into energy using oxygen
