Explain how individual physiological makeup affects VO2 Max

Evaluate responses using AI:

OFF

Answer explanation

VO2 Max is primarily linked to an efficient respiratory system, but it is the contribution of the heart, circulatory system and muscle efficiency that collectively allows an athlete to increase their aerobic capacity. The higher the VO2 Max, the greater potential the athlete has to work at a higher level of their VO2 Max, just below the anaerobic threshold, thereby increasing their work intensity and delaying fatigue.

Explain how heredity/genetics affects VO2 Max

Evaluate responses using AI:

OFF

Answer explanation

Can account for as much as half the variation in VO2 Max, e.g. whether an athlete has a higher percentage of Type I and Type IIa (FOG) oxidative fibers. Similarly an athlete's response to training varies because of genetic variation and therefore their individual level of adaptation may affect how much their VO2 Max may increase. However, heredity only indicates an individual's potential to have a high VO2 Max - it is ultimately the aerobic training they undertake that helps them achieve their full potential.
