Definition of diaphragm

Effects exercise has 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.
Effects exercise has on the cardio-respiratory system
• Decreased resting heart rate
• Faster recovery rate
• Increased resting stroke volume
• Maximum cardiac output
• Strength and size of the heart
Effects exercise has on the cardio-respiratory system
• Improved number of capillaries
• Increased number of red blood cells
• Drop in resting blood pressure
