lactate threshold
You produce the most growth hormone as an adolescent but levels drop dramatically with age. This can lead to the gradual loss of muscle and bone tissue. Can regular exercise bring about a release of growth hormone?
Why does one person perform better in endurance activities than another? Part of it is genetics and training but physiologically it comes down to three main factors. Find out what they are.
Who doesn’t want to see fitness training results quickly? According to a new study, high-intensity interval training may offer faster improvements in aerobic capacity than moderate-intensity aerobic exercise. Read on and discover how HIIT training can help you get in shape more quickly.
Anaerobic exercise – you hear a lot about it – but what does it really mean to work out anaerobically or above your lactate threshold? Find out what anaerobic training is and what type of benefits it offers.
Exercise recovery is important for fitness gains and muscle growth to take place. It’s during “down time” that muscles repair so that change can occur. A number of factors can impact exercise recovery. This article discusses five of those.
Lactate has some positive benefits when it comes to building lean body composition. Find out how this poorly understood compound that builds up during intense exercise helps you get slimmer and more defined. You’ll also discover how to get the benefits of lactate training.
Ventilatory threshold can be used to monitor how hard you’re exercising. Find out what ventilatory threshold is, how it relates to lactate threshold and how you can use it to monitor your intensity during high-intensity interval training.
One way to maximize how long you hard and long you can run or cycle is to increase your lactate threshold through training. Find out what lactate threshold is, why it’s important and how to use it to improve your workouts.
