EXERCISE INTENSITY - Coggle Diagram
EXERCISE INTENSITY
Exercise intensity Domains
moderate
(below lactate threshold)
heavy
(above LT, below MSS)
severe
(above MSS at vo2 max)
characterised by specific boundaries with predictable characteristic physiological responses to each domain
extreme
(exhaustion before VO2 max)
the slow component
above LT
slowly developing component of VO2 after 2-3 mins of exercise
additional motor unit recruitment: additional fibres recruited to replace fatiguing ones
calculating GAIN
change in VO2 (ml-min)/change in work load (w)
Baseline - EE (ml-min)
Measured at a % of VO2 max
