Yeah smart athletes and coaches pretty much knew what worked long before science started looking for why it works. I'd be interested in knowing how much science has actually improved training in the last 50 years. And this is coming from a guy with a degree in exercise science.Screw all of this advanced definitions bs, I'll rely on the things found in the conditioning forum to improve my conditioning.
if your working non stop for 120 seconds than your doing aerobic work. However if you do say a set of 10 power cleans, take a 20,30 second break, then start over again, it's purely anaerobic.
LMFAO.cuz its fucking haaaaaarrrrd.
-respect- *pounds chest*
LMFAO.
My favorite post this month.
Jesus, you can't read, reminds me of someone else on here, saying I was anti carbs 50 times. I never stated anything about aerobic use under 400 meters. Not 25 meters, 50 meters etc. If you want to qoute me, at least get it straight from your end.Your talikng about Post Exercise Oxygen Consumption. Once again, in the "evidence" you just posted it supports my argument.
"Without oxygen: pyruvate (figure 4.10, from chapter 4) converts to lactate so ATP can be continuously made to finish the high intensity exercise. (This is crucial during a 400 meter dash, hockey and soccer competitions). If to much lactate builds up, fatigue and pain set in"
"In maximum anaerobic effort, like a 200 meter dash, carbohydrate is the sole contributor to ATP production (due to glycolysis)."
"Energy for a 100 meter dash, or a 25 meter swim are supplied by ATP phosphocreatine stored within muscles. These are termed phosphagens."
Activities like a Power Clean, or 40 yard dash, or 100 meter sprint are purely anaerobic, a 400 meter might be slightly aerobic, an 800 meter is partially aerobic.
So please shoot yourself, even in your own evidence, you admit that a 100 meter dash is anaerobic

The link above actually verifies Ross's statement regarding a 400m sprint being 43% aerobic. In fact, it's exactly the same which makes me think he may have gotten his information from this very source.
According to the source even doing a 200m sprint is 29% aerobic. Both systems start simultaneously from every thing that I've read and as training time increases the aerobic system becomes more and more dominant. It also states that around 75 secs. the anaerobic and aerobic systems are supplying equal amounts of energy.
One thing is for sure. The different energy systems are not as black and white as some of you make them out to be. The body does not shut one down immediately and start another up at any given time.
