Anaerobic Training Can Increase Aerobic Capacity

May 30th, 2010

It is easy to think of aerobic and anaerobic training as two discreet training processes that serve two different functions. However, it is important to remember that these training methods overlap. In a recent study, Robert Pritchett, Matt Green, and Kelly Kerr showed that anaerobic training also increases VO2max (aerobic capacity) in athletes. Thus, coaches should remember that even when they are assigning anaerobic exercise to increase lactic tolerance, athletes are also benefiting from an increase in aerobic capacity.
