1. Cardiovascular fitness the ability of the heart and lungs to efficiently deliver
oxygenated
blood to the working muscles as well as the muscles
ability to extract and use the oxygen provided
2. Endurance training a specific method of training used to improve
cardiovascular fit-
ness
3. Phosphagen energy -lasts 0-10 seconds
sys- tem -for very high intensity exercise
-immediate rate of ATP production
-fuel is ATP
-no oxygen used
*Short distance sprints
4. Glycolytic energy system- lasts 11-120 seconds
-used for high exercise intensity
-rapid ATP production
-fuel is muscle glycogen and blood glucose
-no oxygen used
*mid-distance sprints and shuttle runs
5. Oxidative energy system - lasts for more than 2 minutes
-low to moderate exercise intensity
-slow ATP production
-fuel is stored carbohydrates and fat
-oxygen is used
*long-distance sprints, pace-tempo training, and long
slow dis- tance runs

the maximum amount of oxygen the body can take in and
utilize during 1 minute of high intensity exercise;
correlated to run time, meaning run time can be
increased if weight is decreased
Amount of oxygen consumed divided by body weight in kg
7. Exercise economy the amount of energy required to maintain a consistent
pace
8. Muscle fiber type - more type 1 slow-twitch muscle fibers are better for
slower,
longer endurance events
-more type 2 fast-twitch muscle fibers are better for
faster, shorter endurance events
9. Factors that influence -VO2 max
en- durance -lactate threshold
performance -exercise economy
-muscle fiber type
-long slow distance
10. Types of endurance -pace/tempo
train- ing -interval
-high intensity interval
-fartlek
11. Long slow distance training type of endurance training that employs a constant
pace at low to
moderate intensity over an extended distance or period of
time; ettective at improving VO2 max in untrained or
moderately trained individuals
