effects of regular training on the heart Flashcards
what is the definition of stroke volume
the amount of blood pumped out the ventricle with each contraction
what is the definition of cardiac output
amount of blood pumped around the body per minuite
what is systole
contracting/pushing blood out
what is diastole
relaxing and filling up with blood
what is the end diastolic volume
total amount of blood in the ventricles just before systole
how do i work out the maximum heart rate
220-age
what is the definition of ejection fraction
the amount of blood leaving the heart per contraction
what are 5 effects of regular training in the heart
increased stroke volume(heart is stronger of pumps more blood)
increased heart rate range
bradycardia(resting heart rate under 60bpm)
cardiac hypotrophy(thickening/bigger of ventricle walls)
increased ejection fraction
do stroke volume and heart rate increase when we exercise
yes, until a certain point
why are athletes less fatigued
as there is more blood(oxygen) available to the rest of the body, as the heart demands less as it is stronger
