1. What problems is Eric likely to have? Why? l l l Long duration=O

1. What problems is Eric likely to have? Why? l l l Long duration=O 2 demand, therefore it will negatively impact Eric VO 2 max reduction More perceived effort to run usual pace Can’t compete at typical level of competition Elevation

2. What could he have done? l l l High intensity training at sea

2. What could he have done? l l l High intensity training at sea level=increase VO 2 max Arrive in Denver and run at lower % Timed arrival within 24 hours of race

3. What contributed to Beamon’s success? l Thinner air provided less resistance to athlete’s

3. What contributed to Beamon’s success? l Thinner air provided less resistance to athlete’s movement

4. Why didn’t Jessie’s discus throw improve? l Thrown object are dependent on gaining

4. Why didn’t Jessie’s discus throw improve? l Thrown object are dependent on gaining lift from air…thinner air=less lift

5. Should Rachael do anything? l l No Anaerobic sprint activities less than one

5. Should Rachael do anything? l l No Anaerobic sprint activities less than one minute place minimal demands on O 2 transport system

6. Will training @ altitude improve Eric’s performance? Why or why not? l No

6. Will training @ altitude improve Eric’s performance? Why or why not? l No evidence that training at high altitude will improve performance at sea-level any more than training at sea-level…reasons not clear

7. What are the training options? l l Compete w/i 24 hrs of arrival

7. What are the training options? l l Compete w/i 24 hrs of arrival Train at higher altitudes for several weeks before Train at higher intensity at sea-level=increase VO 2 max One year prior live at moderate altitude

1. l Who will PR? Why? Will, he used a taper period which allowed

1. l Who will PR? Why? Will, he used a taper period which allowed muscles to repair and his energy systems to replenish

2. Describe effects on taper period on Will… l A. Muscle strength: during intensified

2. Describe effects on taper period on Will… l A. Muscle strength: during intensified training FT fibers show reduction in maximal shortening capacity…his FT fibers repaired – l l Damage to muscle repaired B. Energy reserves: Will’s muscle and liver glycogen was probably restored during taper period C. VO 2 max: Once VO 2 max is developed, it takes much less training to maintain
