Does SV plateau, and if so, when?
A
Yes at about 40-60% of max intensity
14
Q
What happens to EDV in acute exercise w/increase intensity and why
A
It increases until about moderate intensity due to an increase in venous return causing greater stretch and therefore a greater contraction. After it plateaus
15
Q

Not much change to it - If contractility increases it will decrease
16
Q
What is Qmax

A
All will increase but are limited by max HR and SV
24
Q
What is CV drift
A
A heart rate increase even with steady state exercise to try to compensate the decreased SV due to increased sweating - this is exacerbated in a hot environment
25
How can you limit CV drift
Fluid replacement during exercise
26
What happens to Q during acute maximal aerobic exercise
It will increase to a point but will level off - around same point as HR max
27
Can you keep increasing workload past the max Q
Yes it is possible
28
What happens to HR during acute maximal aerobic exercise
It will increase to a point but will level off - around same point as Q max
29
What occurs with SBP in acute maximal aerobic exercise
Increase to a point but stop bc Q will stop increasing
30
What occurs with DBP in acute maximal aerobic exercise
It stays flat because any changes are offset are due to the massive vasodilation that occurs
31
What occurs with MAP in acute maximal aerobic exercise
It increases due to the increase in SBP
32
What occurs with TPR in acute maximal aerobic exercise
It will reduce with an increased workload due to the increased vasodilation of the vessels
33
What occurs to RPP in acute maximal aerobic exercise
It increases and plateaus near the Q max and SBP max
34
Do HR, VO2, and Q share a common max in acute maximal aerobic exercise
Yes - they all increase to around the same point
35
Q and VO2 in UE vs LE (acute)
Q and VO2 are lower in UE than LE due to less muscle mass being utilized
36
Difference of HR max UE vs LE (acute)
It is the same max value for both, it just occurs at a lower VO2 for UE
37
SV in UE vs LE (acute)
SV decreases in UE due to less vasodilation since there is less muscle mass recruited and therefore a higher TPR
38
MAP in UE vs LE (acute)
Q is the same at any given VO2, but TPR lower in LE so lower MAP
39
RPP UE vs LE (acute)
It is higher in UE because of higher TPR in UE so heart has to do more work
40
What kind of overload do you get with (acute):
A: Aerobic training
B: Resistance training
A: Flow overload
B: Pressure overload
41
(acute) HR and
A: Aerobic Training
B: Resistance training
A: Increase a lot more than just static
B: modest increase due to resistance to blood flow (decreased SV due to increased afterload)
42
(acute) BP and
A: Aerobic Contraction
B: Resistance Contraction
A: Some increase - mainly milks muscles to increase flow/venous return
B: Sharp rise in BP due to contracting venous blood flow, therefore increase TPR to increase V and SBP and DBP due to large afterload
43
(acute) Q and
A: Aerobic Training
B: Resistance training
A: higher bc SV and HR increase (increase Q due to increased demand -flow overload: increase venous return to increase EDV)
B: lower due to lower SV
44
(acute) BP and
A: Aerobic Training
B: Resistance training
A: Increase SBP, no change DBP
B: increase SBP and increase DBP (due to TPR) - note: LE > UE
45
What happens to blood flow when you increase sympathetic tone (acute)
Increased SV and Q due to compressing the venous volume so more return to heart
46
Where is most of the blood at rest
On the venous side (64%)
47
What is the primary determinate of flow

```
50
```
Absolute changes of blood flow during acute exercise

Renal and GI - decrease with intensity
Heart- increase proportional to intensity
Brain - no change (areas in brain and activity changed)
51
Can you increase O2 consump of working tissue without changing Q?
Yes - due to the change in distribution of blood flow to the heart, lungs, and working tissue
52
What is the Fick equation
VO2 = Q x a-vO2 diff
53
Acute Central changes in Q and a-vO2 to alter VO2 max:
Change HR or SV to alter ability to move O2
Change blood volume to increase flow
Change Hb to increase carrying capacity
54
Acute Peripheral changes in Q and a-vO2 to alter VO2 max:
Alter flow to the nonexercising regions to improve a-vO2 diff
Increased amount of capillaries for O2 exchange in the working tissues
55
Endurance training and VO2 max (chronic)
Considerable increase
| Q and a-vO2 also increase due to increase SV
56
What happens to SV relative to VO2 with endurance training (chronic)
It will be higher at any given VO2 (due to increase in EDV)
57
What is the adaptation to EDV with endurance training (chronic)
It will be higher at any given workload - even at rest
58
What happens to the Left Ventricular Volume with endurance training (chronic)
It will be higher to lead to increased SV
59
What happens to the heart with endurance training (chronic)
Increased left ventricular mass and change in the direction of the muscle fibers to allow for higher force of contraction
60

62
Normal values of components of Q at rest post training adaptations
HR: 54 bpm
SV: 90ml/min
Q: 4.9ml/min
63
Is HR max different post endurance training?
It is the same value it just occurs at a higher workload due to the overall decrease in HR at any given time
64
What happens to Q with endurance training at rest, during submax, and max (chronic)
Rest: unchanged
Submax: unchaged
Max: higher due to increased SV max
65
What is the Karvonen Method
Calculate HRR and find training sensitive zone
66
Karvonen Method Equation
0.6(MHR - RHR) + RHR
67
Does it take longer or shorter for HR to return to baseline post training (chronic) and the caloric significance (EPOC)
It takes a shorter amount of time, lowering EPOC and post-exercise calories consumed
68
What is a normal a-vO2 dif at max
5 ml O2/dL
69
What happens to the a-vO2 diff with endurance training (chronic)
It will be improved due to a reduction in venous O2 content (due to better O2 consumption by vasodilation and constrict to properly direct flow of blood)
70
What happens to BV with endurance training - chronic
Increase due to increased water retention and increased plasma volume
71
Chronic adaptations to CV at rest with resistance training

75
What are some of the cognitive effects of increased altitude (acute)
Slow and slurred speech, decreased reaction time, decreased light sensitivity, decreased visual acuity
76
Does O2% of air decrease with high altitude?
No - it is the PO2 that decreases, not the % O2 of the air
77
What happens to the a-vO2 diff with increased altitude (acute)
It is decreased to almost no difference at all causing very marginal ability of gas diffusion
78
As you increase in altitude, does blood become more acidic or alkalotic? Why? (acute)
It becomes more alkalotic due to blowing off more CO2 as a result to the increase of O2 as the driver of respiration
79
What occurs to PCO2 with increases in altitude
It decreases
80
Where is the "sudden death" height
2000m
81
What are the acute changes to VO2 max with increasing altitude
VO2 max declines considerably past 2000m due to the decrease in PO2
82
Acute change to Ve with increased altitude
Increased due to increased frequency of breaths
83
Acute change in oxy hemoglobin curve with increased altitude
The curve will shift to the left due to the lower PO2 and loss of CO2
84
Chronic change in oxy hemoglobin curve with increased altitude
Curve shifts back to the right due to renal compensation to lose HCO3

Increase Ve
86
What happens to blood volume with altitude acclimatization
It will eventually increase back to normal values
87
What happens to heart rate with altitude acclimatization

M ± R ± C ± K - E = 0
94
What accounts for 80% of heat loss during exercise
Evaporation through sweat
95
Where does sweat come from
the extracellular fluid - interstitial and plasma V
96

Vo2 will decrease -
| Plasma V decrease, SV decrease, Q decrease, VO2 decrease
97
What are the main ways we lose heat
Evaporative and convective
98
What are the main ways we gain heat
Metabolism
Radiative
Conductive
99
Where in the brain do we control temperature
In the hypothalamus - we can adjust our set point
100
How do we adjust thermoregulation
Change blood flow to skin and veins
Increase output to sweat glands
Change behaviour to influence the kinds of clothes that we wear
101
Do adjustments in set points always work?
No - once you get over about 40 C heat stroke can become possible
102
Core T vs WBCT
The higher the intensity of exercise at any given environmental T, the higher the core temperature will be. Max exercise limited quicker at higher environmental Ts
103
What can the sweat rate increase to at high intensities or temperatures? Why is this significant
1.5 - 2L
| Significant because it is a large decrease in plasma volume so fluid replacement is important
104
What happens to SV with acute exercise in heat
It will decrease due to more blood volume going to cutaneous blood flow
105
What will happen to HR with acute exercise in heat
It will increase due to the decreased SV
106
What happens to VO2 with acute exercise in heat? Why is this important
It gets higher faster leading to faster glycogen depletion and higher lactate levels so time to failure is sooner
107
What occurs to RPP and TPR during acute exercise in heat
TPR will decrease due to the vasodilation of the skin so RPP will also decrease
108
How long does it take to acclimate to the heat? At what intensity?
About 2 weeks for all of the adaptations to occur
| Moderate to high Intensity required, otherwise the timeline stretches out
109
What happens to sweat rate with heat acclimatization
Sweat more at lower T causing less blood to flow to the skin so it can stay with the working muscles
110
```
What happens to x with heat acclimatization:
BV
SV
HR
RPE
```
BV: not decrease as much
SV: increased (compared to initial heat exposure)
HR: lower (not as low as normal conditions)
RPE: lower (can do more exercise)
111
Which substrate do we use more of after heat acclimatization?
We use more fat so we get less lactate accumulation and less glycogen depletion
112
What happens to core body T with heat acclimatization?
It is lower at all durations and intensities of exercise than before acclimatization
113
What happens to time to fatigue in 4-11 C weather
It is improved - able to work for longer time due to improved VO2 max
114
What is the ideal T range for aerobic exercise
35-50 F
115
Describe the ways the body tries to conserve heat
Shivering - muscle contractions to generate heat
Nonshivering thermogenesis- brown adipose tissue (small amount)
Peripheral vasoconstriction: reduce blood flow to skin
116
What are the factors that affect heat loss
Body size and composition (obese = more insulation and ability to maintain heat)
Air T & Wind Chill : Conductive & Convective heat loss
Water immersion: much easier to lose heat and therefore t to survival is lower
117
Short term cold exercise responses
Muscle weakening and faster fatigue
Increased water loss (from respiration)
Increase HR
Greater carbohydrate mobilization and less FA transport
118
Can we acclimate to the cold?
Partially but the response is different in each person and none of the changes are life saving
119
What is cold habituation
A type of acclimatization to the cold that is blunted shivering and less cutaneous vasoconstriction
120
What is metabolic acclimation
A type of acclimatization to the cold that is an enhanced ability to shiver
121
What is insulative acclimation
A type of acclimatization to the cold that is enhanced vasoconstriction and improved muscular blood flow
122
t of survival in water immersion and cold acclimation
15-20 minutes if 32-40 F, lethal after one hour no matter if acclimated or not
123

125
In the HH, HL, and LL groups, what happened to Hct and Red cell mass
Increased HL and HH
126
In the HH, HL, and LL groups, what happened to performance
faster in HL and HH
127
In the HH, HL, and LL groups, what happened to VO2 max
HH and HL improved due to the altitude exposure
128
In the HH, HL, and LL groups, what happened to change in steady state VO2 (ventilatory threshold VO2)
Increased most in HL group leading to an increased ability to work out at a higher intensity
129
In the HH, HL, and LL groups, what happened to 5k performance time
LL decreased making HL and HH appear to increase more than they actually did
130
What are the main takeaways of the detraining paper study starting in 1966
Living a sedentary lifestyle (/3 weeks of extreme bed rest) is worse for your body than aging 30 years
Regardless of age, aerobic exercise will improve CV function
131
What is the overall ACSM recommendation?
> 30 min moderate/day for >5days/week or >20 min vigorous/day >3 days/week or mix of moderate/vigorous for E expenditure of >500-1000 MET/week
132
General process for ACSM recommendation
```
Committee of experts
Inclusion/exclusion criteria
Data Review
Group breakdown to research
External Review

Approval
```
133
What is the focus of the ACSM recommendation
CV and metabolic health - to decrease risk of heart disease, diabetes, etc.
134
Recommendations for frequency
> 5 days/week mod or 3 days vigorous or combo 3-5days
135

It is decreased
136
Time recommendation
30-60 minutes of moderate, or 20-60 minutes of vigorous
137
Can exercise be split into bouts and still meet the daily needs?
Yes - you can accumulate your exercise periods
138
Can steps be used to fulfill the time recommendation for exercise?
It can be used as a rough estimate for exercise volume. >7000 steps a day is the goal, and if intensity if up, it is helpful.
139
What is the Intensity recommendation for exercise? How is it calculated?
Moderate to vigorous intensity
| Karvonven method: 30-39 light, 40-60 moderate, vigorous 60-90
140
What was found with BMI or age and intensity?
No matter the BMI or age, exercising at higher intensities will show CV improvements
141
What has been found regarding sitting time and heart health?
In a sedentary population, standing instead of sitting will show improvements in heart health. If you already exercise mod-vig daily, then there is no change in heart health.
142
What is the recommendation for exercise type?
Any sort of aerobic exercise that you will consistently do each day is a good recommendation.
