Q

Describe changes in anaerobic performance.

A
  • normalize to kg, graph still goes up

- therefore there are more factors than just increased body mass

Q

The effort in assessing aerobic performance can be ____ or ____.

A
  • maximal

- submaximal

17
Q

Maximal oxygen uptake is often measured to…

A

see how efficiently participant uses oxygen

18
Q

Aerobic performance is the largest amount of ….

A

oxygen the body can consume during aerobic work in a minute

19
Q

Changes in VO2 max: growth/maturation relationship to kg:

A
  • normalize to kg: graph goes flat/down

- therefore body growth accounts for changes in VO2 max

20
Q

Recovery of HR after exercise is faster in _____ due to….

A
  • children

- higher parasympathetic tone

21
Q

Changes in youth endurance performance:

A
  • girls change in steady fashion

- boys steady between year 1, 2, then big change

22
Q

A
  • 1%

- 20s

23
Q

_____ and ____ adults maintain higher maximal oxygen uptake than do _____ adults.

A
  • athletic
  • active
  • sedentary
24
Q

A
  • loss of cardiac muscle
  • loss of elasticity in cardiac muscle
  • thickening of left ventricle
  • fibrotic changes in valves
  • loss of elasticity in major blood vessels
  • maximum achievable HR with exercise declines
  • stroke volume in some older adults declines
  • cardiac output declines
25
Q

Respiratory changes in adulthood:

A
  • elasticity of lung tissue declines
  • vital capacity decreases, especially in smokers
  • oxygen-CO2 exchange loses efficiency
26
Q

28
Q

Cardiovascular adaptations to endurance training:

A
  • increased cardiac output
  • increase blood volume, RBC count, and hemoglobin concentration
  • enhanced blood flow to skeletal muscle

A
  • increased mitochondrial size and density
  • increased oxidative enzyme concentrations
  • increased myoglobin concentrations
  • increased capilarization in muscle bed
  • increased O2 difference between arterial and venous blood
