Study Notes
Fatigue and Recovery
- Fatigue is a limiting factor in performance, not just feeling tired
- Fatigue depends on the energy systems used, duration, and intensity of events
ATP-PC System
- In short explosive events (e.g., 100m sprint), PC depletion is a major cause of fatigue
- PC stores are limited (~10 seconds) and depletion slows down performance
- Inorganic phosphate accumulation reduces contraction power, leading to fatigue
Recovery for ATP-PC System
- Passive recovery is ideal for replenishing PC stores
- Low-intensity passive recovery can replenish 70% of PC stores in 30 seconds and 98% in 3 minutes
- Complete replenishment takes around 10 minutes
Anaerobic Glycolysis System
- In longer high-intensity events (e.g., 400m sprint), anaerobic glycolysis is a major cause of fatigue
- Metabolic byproducts (e.g., lactic acid) accumulate and lead to fatigue
- Hydrogen ions from lactic acid are responsible for fatigue
- An active recovery is best for removing metabolic byproducts
Recovery for Anaerobic Glycolysis System
- Active recovery helps remove metabolic byproducts
- Low-intensity activity (e.g., jogging or cycling) promotes oxygen distribution to muscles, aiding in byproduct removal
- Increased oxygen supply helps convert lactate back into glucose, reducing fatigue
Aerobic Energy System
- In long-duration events (e.g., marathons), fatigue occurs due to glycogen depletion, dehydration, and increased core body temperature
- Glycogen depletion leads to fatigue when muscles rely on fat as a fuel source
- Dehydration thickens blood, making it harder for the heart to pump, leading to fatigue
- Increased core body temperature impairs enzyme function, leading to fatigue
Recovery for Aerobic Energy System
- Refuel with high-GI carbohydrates to replenish glycogen stores
- Hydrate with 1.5 times the amount of body weight lost to replenish fluids
- Rest and stretching can aid in recovery
