Answers with Verified Solutions | Latest
Updated 2026
interval training -repeated short or long bouts of HI
exercise
interspersed w/ recovery periods
-work:relief ratio
aerobic interval training (AIT) elicits aerobic metabolism at a higher ratio
than
anaerobic
short AIT -prevent glycogen depletion, increase fat
oxidation compared to continuous training
-brief intervals rely more upon O2
myoglobin
-stimulates lactate removal during recovery
periods
long AIT -more continuity
-more effective for increasing VO2 max
-likely to result in higher [LA]
-1-8 min intervals
anaerobic interval training (HIIT) -target ATP-PC, glycolytic systems
-HI bursts w/ higher work:relief ratios
-all-out bursts = 3-10 sec (60 sec rest)
-TABATA
