Short Term Effects of Exercise Flashcards
1
Q
What are the short term effects of exercise on the muscular system?
A
- Muscle fatigue
- Lactate accumulation
- Oxygen debt
- Temperature increase
2
Q
What are the short term effects of exercise on the CV system?
A
- Increased heart rate
- Increased stroke volume and cardiac output
- Increased vascular shunting (heart rate and stroke volume)
- Increased blood pressure
3
Q
What are the short term effects of exercise on the respiratory system?
A
- Increased depth of breathing and breathing rate
- Increased tidal volume
- Oxygen debt
4
Q
Muscle fatigue
A
- Not enough oxygen is available when exercising intensely, anaerobic respiration takes place and produces lactic acid
5
Q
Lactate accumulation
A
- Lactic acid builds up
- Because not enough oxygen entering muscles
6
Q
Oxygen debt
A
- Rapid heavy breathing after exercise to pay back oxygen
- More is required than normal
7
Q
Implications of short terms effects of exercise on the muscular system in sport
A
- Can lead to cramp in later stages of games
8
Q
Implications of short terms effects of exercise on the CV system in sport
A
- Increased depth of breathing
- Increased tidal volume
- Gaseous exchange speeds up
- Oxygen debt may occur
- Allow performer to get more oxygen to working muscles
9
Q
Implications of short terms effects of exercise on the respiratory system in sport
A
- Performer gets more oxygen to working muscles
