Soc 9 - Long Term Effects Of Exercise Flashcards
What are the three main areas of cardio-respiratory system
Heart
Blood
Lungs
Whats the long term effects of exercise on the heart
Size and strength of the heart
Increased resting stroke volume
Maximum cardiac output
Decreased resting heart rate
Faster recovery rate
Whats the long term effects of exercise on the blood
Improved fitness increases the number of capilleries in your muscles
Increased number of red blood cells
Drop in resting blood pressure
Whats the long term effects of exercise on the lungs
Increased lung capacity/volume and vital capacity
Increased number of alveoli
Increased strength of the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles
What is adaptation
Your body’s response to training and how your body changes to cope with new activity.
What is aerobic training
Working at a moderate intensity level with oxygen.
What is anaerobic training
Working at a high intensity level without oxygen.
What are alveoli
Tiny sacs within our lungs that allow oxygen and carbon dioxide to move between the lungs
and bloodstream.
What is the diaphragm
The primary muscle used in the process of inspiration or inhalation.
What is cardiac output
The amount of blood ejected from your heart in one minute (CO) = (SV) x (HR)
What is resting stroke volume
The amount of blood pumped per beat.
What is recovery rate
The speed at which your heart returns To RHR after you exercise
What are the long term effects of exercise on the musculo-skeletal
Increased strength of ligaments and tendons.
Increased bone density
Muscle hypertrophy:
