Soc 9: Long Term Affects Of Exercise Flashcards
What is adaption
Your body’s response to training and how your body changes to cope with new activity.
What is Aerobic exercise
Working at a moderate intensity level with oxygen.
What is anaerobic exercise
Working at a high intensity level without oxygen.
What is an alveoli
Tiny sacs within our lungs that allow oxygen and carbon dioxide to move between the lungs
and bloodstream.
What is your diaphragm
The primary muscle used in the process of inspiration and inhalation (breathing in and out)
What is Cardiac output
The amount of blood ejected from your heart in one minute (CO) = (SV) x (HR)
What is your resting stroke volume
The amount of blood pumped per beat
What is your recovery rate
The speed at which your heart returns To RHR after you exercise
Long term Effects of the musculo-skeletal system exercises
• 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.
Long term Effects on the cardio-respiratory system - your heart
-size and strength of your heart will increase
-your heart will pump more blood faster (your resting stroke volume)
-decrease your resting heart rate
-faster recovery rate
-reach maximum cardiac output
Long term Effects on the cardio-respiratory system - your blood
-improved fitness increase (the number of capillaries in your muscles)
-increased number of red blood cells
-drop in resting heart rate
Long term Effects on the respiratory system - the lungs
-increased lung capacity (lungs become more efficient)
-increased number of alveoli (easier to transport oxygen)
-increased strength of the diaphtagm and external intercostal muscles (increase airflow during physical activity)
