    There are a few errors. VT1 is the 'ventilatory threshold' and oxygen uptake will start to deviate from CO2 exhalation. The VT2 is called the respiratory compensation point.
    This is most easily visualised by the 'ventilatory threshold', where VE/VCO2 will drop, then flatten out (isocapnic) between the VT1 and VT2 and then increase again due to hyperventilation past the respiratory compensation point. Respiratory compensation is not a compensation to elevated CO2, but lowered pH and actually leads to a relative hypocapnia.
    The anerobic threshold is associated with, but should not be considered synonymous with either threshold, since this is more of a peripheral phenomena, depending on the relative metabolic balance of the respective motor units and their activation. Likewise the lactate threshold isn't of key importance, because it is the large increase in the rate of glycolysis, rather than the accumulation of lactate that causes acidosis and there are various buffering mechanisms. (Remember that lactic acid is less acidic than pyruvic acid and pyruvate from glycolysis is an input to the citric acid cycle and consequently oxidative phosphorylation).

      Late response, but note that the end product of glycolysis is pyruvate, some of which enters the TCA cycle which does produce CO2.

    Is it true that VT1 corresponds to the first increase of VE/VO2 ratio with no concomitant change in VE/VCO2 ratio, while VT2 corresponds to the second increase of VE/VO2 ratio with a concomitant change in VE/VCO2 ratio ?

  • @superstrada6847

    Excellent. However @ VT1 Glycolysis can proceed oxidatively when pyruvate is adequately cleared (used as fuel) through Type 1 fiber mitochondria vs,. the cytosol. Cytosolic metabolism of excess pyruvate would be anaerobic. This I assume is a consequence of exercise intensity vs., level of fitness. Thank you for the video.

    Hello Dr. Sandoo, thank you for this wonderful video!
    As you probably know, there are different theories about these thresholds,; whether they are occurring at the same instance or not. From what I listened from other academics like yourself; it seems like there isn't any consensus about when these thresholds happen. Some lecturers and studies suggest that the lactate threshold occurs at the same time as the aerobic threshold occurs, immediately when anaerobic metabolism kicks in. Therefore, Ventilatory and Anaerobic thresholds occur at the same instance; after the aerobic and lactate threshold, when anaerobic glycolysis becomes the dominant energy source. What are your thoughts about this situation?
    Thank you very much!

      For ease of use and interpretation, using HR training zones is the most effective way to ensure you are training in the desired intensity to elicit physiological adaptations. Further, knowing the HR achieved at your LT will provide the specificity needed in your training.

    I am a big fan of "test, don't guess". However, I can go to many labs in my area and get VT2/lactate...however...VT1 seems to be elusive; at least in Milwaukee Wisconsin. Any recommendation on how to deal with this or I am misunderstanding the services they advertise?

    • @physiologymadeeasy216
      @physiologymadeeasy216  4 роки тому

      My suggestion would be to visit your nearest University Sport Science department, as they will have lab staff who can interpret the data correctly and provide you more specific information. It would be even better if they offer such service to the public (e.g. human performance) as they will be confident in interpreting the data to exactly how you need it.

    • @snowleopard9749
      @snowleopard9749 4 роки тому

      Note that the the graph in the video is incorrect at VT1, where there should be a clear deviation in both the minute ventilation of Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide. By definition, if there is no deviation in ventilation, there is no ventilatory threshold.
      Any sports science laboratory that performs ramped maximal power output CPET tests will be able to supply the raw ventilation (VE), VO2 and VCO2 data, with which you can perform your own analysis using the "V‐Slope Method" or the ventilatory equivalent method to determine the VT1.

    Thank you for the video, and a question: as a fairly novice runner, I’m (1) unable to run at all for more than a few minutes or half a mile to a mile without my HR exceeding 90% of max; (2) happen to be able to run overall (by average pace) *faster* with comparable or less perceived effort by taking brief (30-60s) walk breaks after every half a mile to a mile or so. How can I train to get to a point where I can just jog continuously and pleasantly (in zone 1 or 2) for a few miles?
    All the conventional running advice about logging in most of your mileage in easy pace in zone 1 or 2 feels unusable to me because just jogging gets me to zone 5 in a few minutes.

      I have no medical qualifications at all, so big grain of salt:
      But I was where you describe in May. I just followed the “increase distance by no more than 10% per week” and set out to run those distances.
      I started with “giving” myself 5 miles. At first it was hard to run the full 5 in a week, running 4 times a week (1.25 each). Once I could do that I chose a day for my “long run” (most people chose a weekend day.) I would add my +10% distance on that day, trying to go further than I did before without stopping.
      At first that’s only like .1 or .2 a week. But pretty soon you’re adding a mile and get to the point you can run 1 hour without stopping. I worked my other runs up to how ever far I went in 15 minutes.
      Only once I was there did I really start to care about my heart rate. Pretty quickly I was able to run further at lower heart rates. I think at first we are just so weak there is nothing for it but to build up.

      @@piedpiper1172 Thank you, that’s helpful to hear. I’ve been able to run for 45-60+ minutes for over 6 months now, but my HR still consistently hits 170+ (over 90% of max) in the first few minutes and then mostly stays at that high level. On rare occasions, it’s slightly lower, for example, on a really good day, I can hold a 167 or so average HR through a 10K distance, but that’s not the norm. Slowing down doesn’t really seem to help because below a certain speed, my form is so poor that it is uneconomical and therefore induces a high HR.
      What if anything did you do to reduce your HR once you did start caring about it as you say? Did just more and more running automatically bring it down? That is what doesn’t seem to be happening for me.

      Having read the other comments I will just add. Slow down. Even if it's uneconomical you will get used to that also and you legs.and body will adjust. Just out curiosity are you overweight or what way would you describe yourself?
      Also one thing to note is if you are say the 167bpm you mention that doesn't matter really.that much unless compared to your max heart rate or VO2max.
      My max heart rate was 199 on a Vow max (it went higher in training ) and my lactic-threshold is just at 141. Yours could be 167 depends on the person.
      The guy who did my vow Mac said his and his brothers max heart rates are completely different. So comparing to others would be a bad idea.
      Good luck. If you doing that distance you can now Jog so you got there
