The Bioenergetics of Training

A keen understanding of the energy systems at play during exercise is crucial for trainers and fitness enthusiasts alike.

Knowing the difference between terms like "fast glycolysis" and "aerobic metabolism" enables us to target each specifically. The upshot of this know-how is improved exercise selection, program design, and RESULTS from our hard work.

Below is a handout my mentor and I adapted from the NSCA's Essentials of Strength and Conditioning (3rd edition) by Baechle & Earle. It contains all the practical information you need in order to apply the scientific principles of the human body's energy systems to your training right away.

Enjoy!
