chapter 21 Flashcards
changes from anaerobic training
- increased level of substrates (PCr)
- increased key anaerobic enzymes that are used in glucose catabolism
- increased glycogen and glycolytic enzymes
- improved motivation and pain tolerance
Training can improve (4)
- ventilation aeration
- central blood flow
- active muscle metabolism
- peripheral blood flow
ventilation-aeration improvements
- minute ventilation
- oxygen diffusion capacity
- arterial oxygen saturation
central blood flow improvements
- cardiac output
- arterial blood pressure
- oxygen transport capacity
active muscle metabolism improvements
- energy stores and substrate availability
- enzymes and oxidative potential
- myoglobin concentration
- mitochondria size and number
- active muscle mass
peripheral blood flow improvements
- muscle blood flow
- flow to nonactive regions
- O2 diffusion
- O2 extraction
- venous compliance and reactivity
greater blood flow in active tissues results from
increased microcirculation
more effective redistribution of cardiac output
combined effect of both factors
overloading specific muscles with endurance training …
enhances performance and aerobic power
trained skeletal muscle fibers contain _______ and ________ mitochondria than less active fibers
larger & more numerous
impacts of training the aerobic system
- increases intramuscluar FAs oxidation
- reduced CHO as fuel and increased FA combustion in submax. exercise
- enhanced metabolic adaptations in each muscle fiber type
what is athletes heart?
long term aerobic training increases heart mass and volume with greater left-ventricular end-diastolic volumes during rest and exercise
____ to ____ % increase in plasma volume occurs after three to six aerobic training sessions
12 to 20
plasma volumes increases (4)
- end diastolic volume
- stroke volume
- O2 transport
- VO2 max
- temperature regulation during exercise
factors that increase stroke volume
- increased internal left-ventricular volume and mass
- reduced cardiac and arterial stiffness
- increased diastolic filling time
- improved intrinsic cardiac contractile function
aerobic training _________ quantity of O2 extracted from circulating blood
increases
