Summary

Professor David Bishop is a world leader in muscle exercise physiology with more than 250 publications to date. He explains how high training volume and high-intensity training each leads to particular endurance adaptations on a cellular and mitochondrial level. Knowing about these adaptation pathways and effects of different training methodologies is essential for triathletes and coaches when planning out their training. IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT: -The difference between mitochondrial content and mitochondrial function -How high-volume training skews towards increased mitochondrial content, and high-intensity training towards improved mitochondrial function -Mitochondrial content may be the more important adaptation of the two when it comes down to performance -Different intensity levels and their benefits and drawbacks -Guidelines on appropriate Training Intensity Distributions -"Training Low" - adaptations to training with low glycogen stores SHOWNOTES: https://scientifictriathlon.com/tts215/ THAT TRIATHLON SHOW HOMEPAGE: www.thattriathlonshow.com SPONSORS: Precision Hydration - One-size doesn't fit all when it comes to hydration.

0:00.0	you need a high volume of training, so, you know, that 80% of the high volume training to get
0:07.3	that large increase in mitochondrial volume. But getting that high intensity interval training,
0:13.9	you know, around about 100% of VO2 max and even above, then that seems to be more important
0:20.2	for increasing mitochondrial function.
0:22.3	And we've tended to see greater improvements
0:24.3	in mitochondrial function
0:25.6	with that level three type training.
0:31.5	That trap on show, 250.
0:34.2	Yeah. 215.
0:52.5	Hey, what's up, everybody, and welcome back to another episode of that triathlon show,
0:56.2	the podcast presented by Scientific triathlon.com.
1:00.9	I'm your host Michael, and on today's episode, I interview Professor David Bishop.
1:09.1	Professor Bishop is a world leader in muscle exercise physiology and has published more than 250 publications.
1:12.7	He leads the skeletal muscle and training research group at the Victoria University in Melbourne, Australia, which has a focus of examining how exercise,
1:19.5	genes and diet interact to regulate skeletal muscle adaptations and to translate this new knowledge
1:26.2	at a cellular and mitochondrial level into recommendations for improving human performance.
1:31.3	And one of the main topics that we really get into today is discussing volume and intensity, the adaptations of each, and how you can balance the two adequately to get the best of both worlds and which one might be more
1:46.4	important than the other. So we'll get into that right after thanking our sponsors. First, we have
1:52.0	precision hydration that you can find on precision hydration.com. And we're looking forward to having
1:58.3	founder Andy Blow back for another hydration episode at some point quite soon.
2:04.0	So I would encourage you to send in any questions that you want to get asked or topics that you want us to specifically touch on regarding hydration, electlights and cramping.
2:14.6	To my email, Michael at Scientific Traathlon.com, and that's Michael Wood a K.
