Q

what is an isometric contraction

A

the muscle stays the same length so nothing moves

29
Q

what is an isotonic contraction

A

the muscles changes length so something moves

30
Q

what are the two types of isotonic contraction

A

concentric isotonic contractions

eccentric isotonic contraction

31
Q

what is a concentric isotonic contraction

A

this is when a muslces contracts and shortens

32
Q

what is an eccentric isotonic contraction

A

exhaling

38
Q

A

amount of gas an individual can exhale beyond tidal expiration

43
Q

what is inspiratory reserve volume

amount of gas an individual can inhale beyond tidal inspiration

44
Q

what is residual volume

A

amount of gas remaining after maximum expiration

45
Q

what is vital capacity

capillaries
arteries
veins

50
Q

how is blood redistributed during exercise

A

Vasodilation

Vasoconstriction

51
Q

what is vasodilation

A

enlargement or stretching of vessels

52
Q

what is vasoconstriction

A

constriction of vessels

53
Q

what is diastole

A

occurs when the chambers of the heart fill with blood

54
Q

what is systole

A

occurs when the chambers of the heart empty of blood

55
Q

what is cardiac output

A

total amount of blood outputted from the heart per minute

56
Q

what is stroke volume

A

volume of blood pumped form the left ventricle per beat

57
Q

what is heart rate

A

amount of times the heart contracts per minute

58
Q

what is the cardiac output formula

A

cardiac output = stroke volume x heart rate

59
Q

what is aerobic respiration

A

working at a low to moderate intensity so that the body has time to use oxygen for energy production and can work for a long period of time

60
Q

what is anaerobic respiration

A

working at a high intensity so that the body doesn’t have time to use oxygen for energy production and can work for a long period of time

61
Q

what does EPOC stand for

A

Excess Post-exercise Oxygen Consumption

62
Q

what is EPOC

A

the amount of oxygen needed to recover after exercise. it is characterised by deep breathing and increased breathing rate

63
Q

how does a massage help recover form exercise

A

increases blood flow to the muscles

64
Q

how does an ice bath help recover form exercise

A

helps to flush out lactic acid because cold constricts vessels

65
Q

what are the 5 immediate effects of exercise

A 
Heart rate increases
body temp increases
sweat
skin goes red
breathe more deeply and frequently
66
Q

what are short term effects of exercise

A

effects of exercise that are felt 24-36 hours after exercise

67
Q

what are the 6 short term effects of exercise

A 
muscle fatigue
light headed
nauseous
muscles ache
DOMS
muscle cramps
68
Q

what are the 6 long term effects of exercise

A 
body changes shape
improvements to specific components of fitness
work for longer periods
muscles increase in size and strength
heart size increases
resting heart rate lowers
