    Study Notes

    • The speaker discusses upcoming assignments related to training adaptations in the course schedule.
    • There are two planned media write-ups worth 25 points each, with the first one due in a few weeks.
    • The assignment involves watching or listening to a podcast and reflecting on how it pertains to personal goals.
    • The write-up should be less than one page with original writing and no references required.
    • Detailed instructions for the assignment can be found in the course schedule under assignments.- The training adaptations lecture is divided into sections covering resistance training adaptations and aerobic training adaptations.
    • Acute adaptations to resistance training include neuromuscular efficiency and muscle size increase.
    • Hyperplasia, an increase in muscle fibers, contributes less than 5% to strength increases compared to hypertrophy.
    • Technique improvement and neuromuscular coordination play a role in strength expression.
    • Motivation can impact an athlete's ability to push intensity levels and influence strength expression.
    • Fatigue in resistance training involves motor unit recruitment and firing rate.
    • An analogy using students lifting a boulder illustrates motor unit recruitment and fatigue.
    • Acute adaptations also include neurological, muscular, and endocrine responses to resistance training.
    • Hormones like epinephrine, cortisol, testosterone, and growth hormone increase during resistance training.
    • Hormonal responses are influenced by factors like intensity, volume, rest, and muscle mass in a workout.
    • Chronic adaptations involve neurological changes, muscle hypertrophy, skeletal tissue changes, and metabolic alterations.
    • Hypertrophy involves an increase in muscle size and number of myofibrils contributing to strength gains.
    • Neural factors are significant early in training, while hypertrophy becomes more dominant over time.
    • Unilateral strength training can lead to strength gains in the untrained limb due to central neural factors.
    • Resistance training improves bone strength and connective tissue integrity.
    • Metabolic changes from resistance training include increased phosphagen system capacity and glycolytic efficiency.
    • Resistance training can decrease lactate buildup during exercise, influenced by the type and amount of concurrent training.
