Metabolic Drivers of the Lydiard Phases: Session 1 - Muscle Fiber Types (2.5 Credit Hours)
2022 class dates to be confirmed
Instructors:
Dr. Keith Livingstone
Nationally accomplished athlete under the tutelage of Lydiard Olympic bronze marathon medalist Barry Magee. Author of Healthy Intelligent Training—the official handbook of Lydiard Training.
Greg McMillan
Called “one of the best and smartest distance running coaches in America” by Runner’s World magazine, Greg McMillan is also a runner, exercise physiologist, and popular author of training books including “You, Only Faster.”
Moderators:
Lorraine Moller and/or Colin Lancaster
Session (2.5 Hours)
Muscle Fiber Types and their Most Dominant Energy Systems
Neuromuscular recruitment of different muscle fiber types
Fats, Carbohydrates, Protein
Lipolysis of fats and Glycolysis of glucose and their relative energy yields
Acid or Alkali? Why does it matter?
Type IIB Alactic energy vs Type IIA Lactate Energy:
Why lactate is now considered a very high-energy simple carbohydrate, and why what was called ‘lactic acid’ is now simply termed ‘acidosis’.
The ‘Size Principle of muscle fiber recruitment by the brain.
The Strength Training Pyramid and how it relates to neuromuscular recruitment
Why None of this new knowledge affects the Lydiard phases in any way
