acute responses (SAC 2) Flashcards
blood pressure
- the pressure exerted on the arterial wall
resting value = 120/80
exercise value = 180/80
systolic- pumping phase (increased through exercise)
diastolic- steady/relaxed phase
high BP - hypertension
low BP - hypotension
redistribution of blood flow
- Increases
Resting Rate: Muscles 20% Organs 80%
Exercise Rate: Muscles 20% Organs 80%
RESPIRATORY:
- Vasoconstriction (20%): occurs in arterioles supplying oxygen to the inactive areas.
- Vasodilation (80%): occurs in arterioles supplying oxygen to the working muscles.
CARDIOVASCULAR:
- Vasoconstriction (20%): decreases blood flow to inactive muscles and non-vital organs
- Vasodilation (80%): increases blood flow to active muscles
respiratory system & equation
- helps the body to take in oxygen from the environment and remove carbon dioxide from the body
- more O2 you can breathe in and more often you do, the more O2 into bloodstream and cells.
Respiratory Rate (BPM) x Tidal Volume (ml/breath) = Ventilation(L/min)
=> RR x TV = V
respiratory rate (RR)
- Increase
Resting Rate: 12-16 BPM
Exercise Rate:
Moderate
20-30 BPM
Intense
40-50 BPM
- RR increases to meet energy demands of exercise and deliver more O2 to working muscles. Allowing us to work at a higher aerobic capacity.
tidal volume (TV)
- Increase
Resting Rate: 500ml/breath
Exercise Rate:
Moderate
2.5L/breath
Intense
3.0L/breath
- TV increases to allow greater volumes of blood/O2 being taken in per breath. Allowing us to work at a higher aerobic intensity.
ventilation (V)
- Increase
Resting Rate: 6L/min
Exercise Rate:
Moderate
50-75L/min
Intense
120-150L/min
- An increased rate leads to more O2 rich blood being distributed to the heart and to the working muscles per minute. Allowing us to work at a higher aerobic intensity.
cardiovascular system & equation
- to get more blood to the working muscles and to increase the removal of waste
Rate(BPM) x volume(ml/beat) = total cardiac output(L/min)
=> HR x SV = Q
heart rate (HR)
- Increase
Resting Rate: 60-80 BPM
Exercise Rate:
Moderate120-150 BPM
Intense180-200 BPM
- HR increases to meet energy demands of exercise and deliver more O2 to working muscles. Allowing us to work at a higher aerobic intensity.
CALCULATE MAX HR:
MAX HR = 220-AGE
stroke volume (SV)
- Increase
Resting Rate: 60-80 BPM
Exercise Rate:
Moderate 120-150 ml/beat
Intense 150-180 ml/beat - Amount of blood injected out of the heart per beat. Allowing us to work at a higher aerobic intensity
- Increase allowing more blood to be ejected out during exercise
- It will reach max at around 50% max HR - due to the heart only being so big and having a certain filling capacity
cardiac output (Q)
- Increase
Resting Rate: 5-6 L/min
Exercise Rate:
Moderate
12-15 L/min
Intense
20-30 L/min
- An increased leads to more O2 rich blood being distributed to working muscles per minute. Allowing us to work at a higher aerobic intensity.
- REGARDLESS OF YOUR AEROBIC FITNESS AT REST A UNFIT PERSON AND FIT PERSON WILL HAVE THE SAME CARDIAC OUTPUT
plasma volume
- decrease
resting: higher
exercise: lower
- Due to sweating and fluid loss during exercise, the plasma (fluid component of the blood) will decrease.
- not steady during steady state, it goes down.
relationship between cardiovascular and respiratory acute responses
- linear relationship
- increases and decreases together
blood lactate (muscular response)
- increase
- higher intensity = higher lactate production
- as you begin exercise the more lactate you will create due to not enough O2 being delivered to the working muscles
- lactate is the end product of glycolysis
- O2 helps metabolise the byproducts (lactate & hydrogen ions) and therefore we have less fatigue
glycolysis = the transformation of glucose to lactate when limited amounts of O2 are available (products = lactate & hydrogen ions)
- ALWAYS LACTATE IN BLOOD DUE TO ALWAYS HAVING GLYCOGEN METABOLISM
muscular system acute responses
- efficiency to extract the available oxygen and fuels from the bloodstream and use for muscular contraction performance that allow movement to occur
- increases = rate of ATP production, force production, contraction rate
AVO2 difference
- Increase
Resting Rate: Low
Exercise Rate: High
- The difference between oxygen saturation within the arteries as opposed to the veins. Directly related to muscular O2 demand.
- high AVO2 difference = move more oxygen in your arteries and get it into the muscle cell
- low AVO2 difference = means only small amount of oxygen in veins and arteries, which mean muscles have used barley any oxygen from bloodstream
