Prolonged activities have been reported to induce muscle glycogen depletion and to acutely increase the rate of fat metabolism, while chronically leading to an increase in stroke volume, mitochondrial density, and a more efficient oxidative capacity (7, 18). Building a base level of aerobic capacity also improves the ability to recover between training sessions (17). Such adaptations are necessary to allow for progressions in intensity, duration, and volume during training as the competition phase approaches. In addition, base training helps enhance the basic cardiorespiratory and cardiovascular adaptations that are expected to occur with aerobic endurance exercise (7, 18).
It allows athletes to participate in a relatively large training volume without imposing a high level of stress on the musculoskeletal system. This is sometimes referred to as base training. Moderate-intensity training (i.e., LSD training) generally constitutes a major portion of an aerobic endurance athlete’s training volume. Typically, the training distance is greater than the race distance by at least 30 minutes (9). The most common type of training identified with aerobic endurance sports, often referred to as long, slow distance (LSD) training, is characterized by moderate intensities (i.e., 60% to 70% of VO 2max or HRmax) maintained for long periods of time. Long-Duration, Moderate-Intensity Training However, conventional beliefs regarding the routine practice of pre-event static stretching have recently been questioned (48, 50, 53). Static stretching exercises, in which a body position is held stationary for a predetermined period of time (typically 10-30 seconds), are habitually recommended by some sport coaches to improve range of motion within joints, enhance performance, and reduce the risk of injury prior to activity (30, 36, 46). Although these three primary training strategies are all important to a balanced training program, specificity and variety are key to an enjoyable experience and a successful outcome. This evidence suggests that combining traditional long-duration training with moderate-intensity training and short-duration, high-intensity training may yield the same (if not better) results in performance adaptations. New research in the lab and on the field has utilized a complex strategy of strength, speed, and stamina to demonstrate the importance of training multiple physiological components, debunking the idea that long, slow distance is the only way to train. Creative use of the principles of aerobic endurance training program design should focus on reducing the risk of overtraining and enhancing endurance performance. Aerobic endurance training programs in particular require thought and creativity, due to the broad range of activities that fall under the umbrella of aerobic endurance. However, it is essential that training programs be designed to be specific to the sport, season of competition, and the individual needs of the athlete. As with any sport, a variety of training methods can be implemented to promote the greatest physiological adaptations. The structure of any training program is instrumental for athletic success, injury prevention, and individual confidence. All text and images provided by Human Kinetics. WOD DATE AND TIME: Saturday 12/14 during Open Gym (7am – 11am).The following is an exclusive excerpt from the book NSCA's Guide to Program Design, published by Human Kinetics.
These workouts will be open to everyone, member and non-member alike.

We subsequently encourage everyone to feel free to bring a friend, family member, loved one or anyone you know might be interested in working out with you. Finally, these workouts will be longer in duration and will highlight consistency in execution and pacing. These workouts will focus on quality of movement and will incorporate an emphasis on “perfect” repetitions. These workouts will be light to moderate in intensity and will focus on lower skill level exercises making them perfect for any fitness level. This in turn will contribute to shedding those extra unwanted calories (especially around the holidays) while also contributing to your longevity. These aerobic capacity workouts will be specifically designed to develop your aerobic metabolism and energy systems.
We are going to switch from a weekly Bro Session to a weekly Aerobic Capacity Workout. So we are going to try something new here at CFTR.
