Q

It is the weight of the water pressed down on the object.

A

Hydrostatic Pressure

17
Q

The pressure exerted by the water at equilibrium due to the force of the gravity.

A

Hydrostatic Pressure

18
Q

Transfers heat away from the body much quickly than air given in the same temperature

A

Enhance cooling

19
Q

This is the reason we can stay longer in the water and can tolerate longer workouts without feeling being overheated.

A

Enhance cooling

20
Q

What are the five theories?

A
  1. Temperature - Water cools the body with less effort than air
  2. Gravity - Water reduces the effect of gravity on the body. Blood flows from below the heart back up with less effort.
  3. Compression - Water is thought to act like a compressor on all body systems, including the vascular system, causing smaller venous load to the heart than equivalent land exercise.
  4. Partial Pressure - A gas enters a liquid more readily under pressure. In water exercise the gas is oxygen and the liquids blood.
  5. Dive Reflex - This is a primitive reflex associated with a nerve found in the nasal area. When the face is submerged in water, this reflex lower’s heart rate and blood pressure.

A

breast stroke

31
Q

another stomach-position stroke, in which the arms move forward in a circle motion going above the head and directly into the water. Once the arms hit the water, the legs are kicked backward at the same time in what is known as a dolphin kick. It is known as the hardest swimming stroke to master.
