Understanding Fatigue Mechanisms
Discover the nuances of fatigue at different paces, particularly in the high-end aerobic domain. John explains how muscle glycogen depletion and central fatigue play crucial roles in why runners tire at half marathon pace, despite stable oxygen consumption and lactate levels. This conversation delves into the physiological intricacies that affect performance and endurance.In this clip
