Heart rate and stroke volume response to exercise Flashcards
what is heart rate
sub max, increases as exercise increases and decreases as intensity decreases
what is the stroke volume response to exercise
when you start running it increases gradually and reaches a plateau at 120ml-140ml per beat
what is the stroke volume response to exercise because of
venous recture and ventricles ability to stretch further and enlarge
what is venour recture
increases in blood returning to heart
what is the cardiac output response to exercise
co increases directly in line with exercise intensity from 5000ml / min up to 20,000 to 40,000 / min max in highly trained endurance athletes
what does cardiac output increases to supply
increased demand for oxygen from our working muscles
