SOC 9 Flashcards
What is the defintion of Aerobic Exercise?
Working at a moderate intensity level with oxygen
What is the definition of Anaerobic Exercise?
Working at a high intensity level without oxygen
What are the long-term training effects of Anaerobic exercise?
• Sprinting for the ball in football.
• Making a powerful tackle in a rugby game.
• Improved time over the shorter/ sprint distances in athletics or swimmin
What are the long term training effects on aerobic exercise?
• Improved times for long distance athletes (5,000m, 10,000m, marathon runners etc.).
• Ability to run for 90 minutes during a football game (improve cardiovascular fitness levels).
What are the long term affects of exercise on the musculo-skeletal system?
• Increased strength of ligaments and tendons.
• Increased bone density – helps prevent osteoporosis (weakening of bones).
• Muscle hypertrophy: is a term for the growth and increase of the size of muscle cells.
• Adaptation: the body adapts to training loads imposed on it by increasing the ability
to cope with those loads.
What are the long term effects of exercise on the cardio-respiratory system? (your heart)
Decreased resting heart rate
Faster recovery rate
Increased resting stroke volume
Maximum cardio output
Size and strength of the heart
What are the long term effects of exercise on the cardio-respiratory system? (your blood)
Capillaries (helps make blood vessels more elastic)
Increased number in red blood cells
Drop in resting blood pressure
What are the long term effects on the respiratory system?
Increased lung capacity/ volume and vital capacity
Increased number of alveoli
Increased strength of the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles.
What is the definiton of Adaption?
Your bodies response to training and how your body changes to cope with new activity
What is the definiton of Aerobic?
Working at a moderate intensity level with oxygen
What is the definiton of Anaerobic?
Working at a high intensity without oxygen
What is the definiton of Alveoli?
Tiny sacs within our lungs that allow oxygen and carbon dioxide to move between the lungs
and bloodstream.
What is the definition of Diaphragm?
The primary muscle used in the process of inspiration or inhalation
What is the definition of cardiac output?
The amount of blood ejected from your heart in one minute (CO) = (SV) x (HR)
What is the definition of resting stroke volume?
The amount of blood pumped per beat.
