Soc 9-Long Term Effects Of Exercise Flashcards
Adaptation
Your body’s response to training and how your body changes to cope with new activity.
Aerobic
Working at a moderate intensity level with oxygen.
Anaerobic
Working at a high intensity level without oxygen.
Alveoli
Tiny sacs within our lungs that allow oxygen and carbon dioxide to move between the lungs and bloodstream.
Diaphragm
The primary muscle used in the process of inspiration or inhalation.
Cardiac output
The amount of blood ejected from your heart in one minute (CO) = (SV) x (HR)
Resting stroke volume
The amount of blood pumped per beat.
Recovery rate
The speed at which your heart returns To RHR after you exercise.
What is muscle hypertrophy?
Muscle hypertrophy:
When muscles grow as a result of training.
What is a coronary heart disease?
Coronary heart disease:
When your coronary arteries are narrowed by a slow build-up of fatty material within your walls.
What are the long-term effects of training on the musculo-skeletal system?
- Increased Strength of ligaments and tendens.
- Increased bone density - helps with preventing osteoporosis (weakening of bones)
- Muscle hyperthrophy
- Adaptation - the body adapts to training by increasing the ability to cope with those loads
What are the long-term effects of training on your heart (Cardio-respiratory system)?
- size and strength of the heart
- increased resting stroke volume
- maximum cardiac output
-decreased resting heart rate
-faster recovery rate
What are the long-term effects of training on your blood?
- improved fitnesses increases the number of capillaries in your muscle
- increased number of red blood cells
- drop in resting blood pressure
What are the long-term effects of training on your lungs?
- increased lung capacity/volume and vital capacity
-increased number of alveoli
-increased strength of the diaphragm and external intercoastal muscles
