Mastering Aerobic Capacity and Anaerobic Thresholds in Sports Science
Slide 1 - Slide
Learning Objectives
At the end of the lesson, you will understand aerobic capacity, anaerobic thresholds, their testing protocols, and their role in homeostasis and sports performance.
Slide 2 - Slide
What do you already know about aerobic capacity and anaerobic thresholds?
Slide 3 - Mind map
Introduction to Aerobic Capacity
Aerobic capacity is the maximum amount of oxygen the body can utilize during exercise. It's crucial for endurance.
Slide 4 - Slide
Physiology of Aerobic Capacity
Involves cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Efficient oxygen transport and utilization are key.
Slide 5 - Slide
Introduction to Anaerobic Threshold
Anaerobic threshold is the exercise intensity at which lactate begins to accumulate in the blood.
Slide 6 - Slide
Physiology of Anaerobic Threshold
Involves lactate production and clearance. Determines how long high-intensity exercise can be sustained.
Slide 7 - Slide
Testing Aerobic Capacity
Common tests: VO2 max test, Cooper test. VO2 max is the gold standard for measuring aerobic capacity.
Slide 8 - Slide
Testing Anaerobic Threshold
Lactate threshold test, ventilatory threshold test. Both provide insights into exercise intensity sustainability.

Slide 11 - Slide
Importance of Homeostasis
Homeostasis maintains stable internal conditions. Vital for optimal sports performance.
Slide 12 - Slide
Homeostasis and Exercise
Exercise challenges homeostasis. Body adapts to maintain balance during physical activity.
Slide 13 - Slide
Homeostasis in Aerobic and Anaerobic Exercise
Different demands on the body. Aerobic focuses on oxygen supply, anaerobic on energy without oxygen.
Slide 14 - Slide
Role in Sports Performance
Aerobic capacity and anaerobic thresholds determine endurance and power in athletes.
Slide 15 - Slide
Training Aerobic Capacity
Endurance training increases VO2 max. Includes long-distance running, cycling.
Slide 16 - Slide
Training Anaerobic Threshold
Interval training enhances lactate threshold. Short, high-intensity bursts.
