Poster: my understanding
Subject: RE: Kellogism vs Coeism
Body:

I'll give my take. For what it's worth:
-Im a physician
-Have had a pretty strong interest in exercise phys for a long time
-have trained with elites

Does this mean Im an expert? No

Benefits of high mileage running:
-MUSCLE LOSS which has two benefits:
-Less overall body weight, requiring less energy to cover any distance

-Selective weight loss in the arms and legs- these are the MOVING PORTIONS OF THE STRIDE. This is why oscar Pistorius uses less energy than everyone else in the 400 and closes the 400 better than anyone

-increased myoglobin expression in muscle=substance that removes oxygen from the blood

-increased capillary density= more oxygen to you muscle


Downside to high mileage
-muscle loss: decreased power generation


upside and downside of speed and strength
-opposite of above


takes a mix depending on your event
