Increased lung ventilation at maximal exercise Increased L.I.P Explain increased lung ventilation Due to higher levels of tidal volume and respiratory rate there is an incease in pulmonary diffusion Leads to an increase in VO2 Max which is related to heart adaptations of increased Q, RBC and a-VO2 diff. Explain increase in L.I.P Due to training the aerobic system is much more efficient so anaerobic glycolysis is not used as much Decrease in the ammount of H+ ions and lactic acid in blood stream Athlete can work harder for longer
