Biology 101 revisited! thanks for the thorough breakdown! Just got my Forerunner 55 (first running watch), and really want to utilise all the features! keep it up
How can we get more oxygen intake to our blood capilliries to deliver it to the muscles for usage in running? Is it only obtained thru the air that we breath or is there anything else we can take to increase our oxygen intake?
You can’t control the % of oxygen in the air you breathe in, that’s determined by your atmosphere. What can improve is diffusion of gases in the lungs, transport of Oxygen via the hemoglobin in the blood and then diffusion of oxygen into the muscle, plus a number of additional components as a result of aerobic training.
Kuoppa not necessarily. A greater VO2max (as long as pace increases also) will allow you to run a faster pace for longer. For example most will have maximal fat use up to about 65-70% of VO2max which occurs at a particular pace. When you improve that same pace likely becomes a lesser percentage of VO2max, so you have the same contribution from fat as before but just getting a greater output.

If you got better vo2max do y utilize fat more insted glycogen At lower intensity ?
