Decreases
What is heart rate at rest?
70 beats/min
By what mechanism does heart rate at rest decrease with 10 or more weeks of aerobic training?
An increase in parasympathetic innervation
What happens to heart rate during submaximal exercise with 10 or more weeks of aerobic training?
Decreases
By what mechanism during submaximal exercise does heart rate decrease with 10 or more weeks of aerobic training?
A decrease in sympathetic innervation
How to calculate heart rate during maximal exercise?
220-age
What happens to heart rate during maximal exercise with 10 or more weeks of aerobic training?
Slight decrease if > 180 prior to training
How is stroke volume expressed?
mL/beat
What is stroke volume at rest?
70 mL/beat
