Aerobic system
a.k.a oxidative system
* Location
* Primary Energy Source:
* Byproducts
* Energy Yield
* Duration of Activity:
* Sporting Events:
* Advantages:
* Limiting Factors:
location: Mitochondria
Primary energy source: Glycogen (CHO), glucose (CHO), fats
ByProducts: H20 and CO2
Energy yield: 36 ATP (glucose) 460 ATP (TG/fat)
Duration of activty: > 3 mins.
sporting events: Walking, jogging, swimming, walking up stairs
Advantages: Large amount of energy over a
long period of time, removal of lactic acid
Limiting factors: Lung function, max. blood flow, oxygen availability, excess. energy demands
rate of accumulation of lactic acid can be decreased by:
- reducing the rate of lactate production
- increasing effectiveness of aerobic oxidative system - Increasing the lactate elimination
Aerobic Power or VO2 max evaluated by:
(ml/min/kg) maximal volume of oxygen that can be consumed per kilogram of mass in a given time.
Absolute vs. Relative VO2 max
Absolute = (L/min)
Relative = (ml/min/kg)
What are the primary roles of the cardiovascular system?
- to transport oxygen from the lungs to the
tissues - to transport CO2 from the tissues to
the lungs - to transport nutrients from the digestive
system to other areas in the body - to transport waste products from sites of
production to sites of excretion.

define Diastole and systole
Diastole: ventricles relaxing & filling with
blood
Systole: ventricles contracting, push blood
through
All arteries carry oxygenated blood, except ___________. All veins carry deoxygenated blood except ___________.
Pulmonary artery and pulmonary vein.
Plasma carries approx __% blood, comprised mainly of water __%.
55% blood, 90% water
identify the components of the respiratory system
-Diaphragm/ribs
-pharynx/trachea
-bronchioles/lungs
describe the physiology characteristics of the respiratory system
-Diaphragm/ribs: increase in volume, decrease in pressure.
-Pharynx/trachea: air passes through nasal cavity
-Bronchioles: 23+ branching bronchioles
Summarize the function of the RS in
maintaining optimal health and performance
To maintain muscle energy supply:
* Nutrients must be delivered
* Oxygen must be delivered
* By-products must be removed
Discuss the physical activity demands of, and training effects on the cardiovascular and respiratory system collectively.
the physical demands of training are O2, which is carried by hemoglobin. Aerobic needs O2 gives off CO2 & H2O
define cardiorespiratory
refers to the integrated function of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems working together to supply oxygen to the body and remove carbon dioxide and other waste products.
what are the effects of aerobic fitness or what are the effects of the lack of?
-effects of aerobic fitness: Increased stroke volume, Larger and more efficient heart. Increased storage of glycogen, triglycerides in muscle (& in liver).
-Lack of aerobic fitness: Hypertension, heart disease, chronic back pain and obesity.
Identify aerobic physical activity
requirements for health
A minimum of 150 minutes
MVPA (moderate to vigorous physical activity) weekly.
Discuss general guidelines for
prescription
- Never train extremely hard on consecutive days
- Training extra hard no more than 3x per week
- Schedule one extra-hard, all-out workout 1x per week
- Use cross-training in aerobic component
- Use maintenance approach after reaching your desired level of fitness
- Monitor your progress carefully (know your body and allow it to
direct you) - Dress appropriately for ease of movement & temperature regulation
- Choose soft surfaces whenever possible
- Warm up and cool down
(FITT prescription)
Outline ways to monitor aerobic intensity
-Karvonen equation (MHR - RHR) x Intensity + RHR (RHR= resting heart rate)
-max HR= 220 - age.
- Borg scale (6-20)
List ways in which aerobic fitness can be
measured
-VO2 max
Discuss sex differences in VO2 max
Females typically report a
10 - 15% lower VO2 max
than males (even when
expressed in relative
values)
- this is due to females having less hemoglobin due to less muscle mass. (hemoglobin carries oxygen)
Identify and describe the 6 essential nutrients (carbs, fats, proteins, vitamins, minerals, and water)
- Know caloric values of PRO, CHO, Fats
- Know the importance of macronutrients
-Carbohydrates (primary source of energy) 4 cal/g
* Fats (Insulate the body and cushion organs) 9cal/g
* Proteins (broken down into amino acids, Essential for regulating metabolism, Important in growth) 4 cal/g
* Vitamins (water soluble: B and C), (Fat soluble (A, D, E, K)
* Minerals (Necessary for
1. Structural elements (teeth, hormones, muscles)
2. Regulation of body functions (muscle contractions,
blood clotting, heart function)
3. Aid in the growth and maintenance of body tissues
4. Catalytic action in energy release
- Water- (1. Nutrient transport
2. Waste transport
3. Digestion & absorption
4. Regulation of body
temperature
5. Lubrication
6. Chemical reactions
Understand the nutritional requirements and components of a healthy diet
- Eat a variety of healthy food
each day - Limit highly processed food
- Make water your drink of
choice - Limit food high in sodium,
sugar, and saturated fat - Use food labels
- Be aware that food marketing
can influence your choices.
