Like the amount of energy per minute those guys and those marathons are burning is astronomical from what their bodies can keep up with, right?
Not everyone's gonna be able to do that, but everybody can shift their ability to burn or oxidize or use more fat during activity.
Um
And so that crossover point of which when those two cross over, or for many people, they're lactate thresholds, or we've talked, you know, a lot of people hear about zones, which are just indirect measures of like physiological points.
And we had Martin Gabbala on there.
He's like, Yes.
Yes, no, exactly.
Um
And so ever you with training, all of those thresholds can shift.
And your ability to oxidize fat will remain for longer during physical activity.
And that is a positive adaptation because for athletes, that preserves your depletion of glucose and glycogen and your body, which is a good thing.
Um, but also it's a marker of that underlying adaptation that is both, you know, more
Capillaries being able to deliver more blood and more oxygen to your mitochondria and your tissue, but also
What most people care about is that you either have more or more efficient or rust mitochondria that are able to use that oxygen because your aerobic fitness and your metabolism, they're all interlinked, are dependent on your ability to deliver oxygen and your ability to use that oxygen when it gets to the muscle cell.
And mitochondria are what using that for energy production.
So that is a trainable characteristic.
Sedentary people, both men and women, who do.
endurance or cardiovascular training and get those adaptations at the muscular level.
There's of course heart and capillary and vasculars.
No one cares about that.
