🗑
Excessive training   an unnecessarily high volume or intensity  
🗑
4 effects of properly tapering   increased muscular strength, reserved energy stores, no loss of VO2 max, performance increases  
🗑
which sport has seen the most tapering research?   swimmers  
🗑
detraining   cessation of regular training due to inactivity or immobilization; loss of muscle strength/size/power, decrease in muscular & cv endurance, loss of speed/agility/flexibility  
🗑
loss of muscle strength during detraining   disrupted fiber recruitment (also happens in sarcopenia), atrophy  
🗑
how to retain training gains if detraining?   training once every 10-14 days (only works ~2x)  
🗑
loss of muscular endurance (5)   ox enzyme, glycolytic unchanged for 84 days, glycogen, acid-base, capillaries
