When looking at training you need to consider the energy systems that you are using and needing to train. This is important becuse you want to select training methods and apply POTS that are going to support you in developin the energy systems that are suitable and needed for your chosen event/ sport/ activity. There is no point in doing heavy weights developing the ATP-PC system when you are a marathon runner.

What are the specific needs of your sport/ test? When we train we have short and long term adaptations to exercise or Acute (Short term) and Chronic (long term). The cardiovasular system develops over a period of time just as any other system to increase the efficiency of its work allowign you to run further/ longer without becomming as tired. The heart is a musclle and as such it develops just like a muscle in the body enlarging when trained through continous training or training that has the heart rate elevated for longer periods of time (Interval, fartlek, continuous, circuit training). Consider the specific requirements for your sport/ activity and the links between the MOTS/ POTS and physiology and the impact they have on the cardiovascular system.

The muscular system explores changes that occur within the muscles in our body. Just as we have adaptations to our cardiovascular and respiritory system we also have physiological adaptations to our muscles. Increasing in size (hypertrophy) is not the only thing that happens to our muscles. Explore the video which also discusses things link increased tendon strength, increased myoglobin stores and other things.
Respiritory system

Our respiritory system is amazing how it functions and delivers oxygen (o2) around the system and removes carbon dioxide (Co2). There are specific adaptations to this particular system just as we have to our cardiovascular system. These two systems work together as one supplies and and the other transports around the body. Without these two systems working together in harmony we would not be able to work as efficiently. Just as we have acute and chronic adaptions in the cardiovascular system we to have acute and chronic adaptations in the respiritory system. Consider what changes may be occuring to this system as a result of the MOTS and POTS that you have chosen to apply in your training plan.
