Document Summary

Study questions: find a resource (book, magazine or web site) on plyometric training. Dampen your landing: small lateral jumps side to side, briefly explain what we mean by the stretch-shortening cycle. What type of training focuses on eliciting a stretch-shortening cycle: stretch-shortening cycle: when a muscle is forced to contract eccentrically just prior to concentrically. Explain: energy system: anaerobic lactic acid system, fuel: atp made from glucose through glycolysis, at the end of a 400-meter sprint, your legs would feel heavy and you would generally feel unpleasant. You feel unpleasant because working anaerobically is very stressful physically. Your body produces lactic acid which causes the unpleasant feelings. You could recover more quickly by continuing to train anaerobically. Your body will be able to handle high lactate levels better, and will be faster at removing it from the body. Justify your training methods: we can use interval training.
