Active vs. Passive Recovery • Recovery after exercise is associated with reduction of blood lactate concentration • Active recovery (low intensity aerobic exercise) reduces recovery time compared to passive recovery • During active recovery, blood flow to the active muscles remains high • Since the energy consumption during active recovery remains high, the use of lactate as an energy source is higher compared to passive recovery Active vs. Passive Recovery • Recovery after exercise is associated with reduction of blood lactate concentration • Active recovery (low intensity aerobic exercise) reduces recovery time compared to passive recovery • During active recovery, blood flow to the active muscles remains high • Since the energy consumption during active recovery remains high, the use of lactate as an energy source is higher compared to passive recovery Economy of Movement and Mechanical Efficiency in Exercise • Efficiency- the relation between input and resulting output • The quantity of energy required to perform a particular task in relation to the actual work accomplished • Economy of physical effort Mechanical / biomechanical efficiency Economy Environmental factors Mechanical Efficiency Mechanical efficiency (%) = Actual mechanical work accomplished Input of energy kgm = x 100 VO2 תפוקה = השקעה x 100 Mechanical Efficiency Example: - 13,300 kgm of work were generated during 15 minute ride on a stationary bicycle. - Total oxygen consumption 25 liters.

Training a FT -fibered muscle for endurance will not increase the number of ST fibers, nor will training a STfibered muscle for strength and power increase the number of FT fibers. With the proper training, FT -B fibers can take on some of the endurance characteristics of FT -A fibers and FT -A fibers can take on some of the strength and power qualities of FT-B fibers. However, there is no interconversion of fibers. FT fibers cannot become ST fibers, or vice versa. What an athlete is born with is what he or she must live with.
