short and long term effects of exercise Flashcards
short term effect from exercise to muscles
muscle fatigue, lactate accumulation due to anaerobic exercise
short term effect from exercise to cardiovascular system
increase HR, increase stroke volume (amount of blood leaving heart per contraction) resulting in Aa increased cardiac output (stroke volume x HR)
short term effect from exercise to respiratory system
increased breathing depth, increased breathing frequency, increased amount of oxygen in the lungs, increased oxygen supply to targeted muscles, increased carbon dioxide removal
training adaptation due to long term exercise effects
able to train longer, higher intensity, faster recovery - able to train more frequently
skeletal adaptation due to long term exercise effects
increased bone density, less chance of getting osteoporosis, brittle bones and stress fractures, increased strength of ligaments and tendons
muscular adaptation due to long term exercise effects
increased muscle mass and size - muscle hypertrophy
cardiac adaptation due to long term exercise effects
decreased RHR, increased hypertrophy of the heart, increased resting stroke volume, increased maximal stroke volume
vascular adaptation due to long term exercise effects
increased capillarisation (number of capillaries), increased number of red blood cells, decreased resting blood pressure, increased elasticity of arteries and veins
respiratory adaptation due to long term exercise effects
increased lung capacity, develop more alveoli, increased strength of respiratory muscles
