SOC 9 - Long Term Effects Of Training Flashcards
What is adaptation?
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
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 (heart)
The speed at which your heart returns To RHR after you exercise
What are the effects of training anaerobic exercise?
It will lead to increased ability to move in quick bursts.
What effects does exercise bring to your musculo-skeletal system?
• Increased strength of ligaments and tendons
• Increased bone density
• Muscle hypertrophy
• Adaptation
What does increased bone density help to prevent?
Osteoporosis (weakening of bones)
What is muscle hypertrophy?
A term for the growth and increase of the size of muscle cells
What are the effects of aerobic exercise and what does it improve?
The effects of training will increase your ability to work for long periods of time, improving your cardiovascular fitness levels
What is meant by decreased resting heart rate?
Your heart gets bigger/ stronger with training, so it can supply the same amount of blood with fewer beats.
What is faster recovery rate?
Heart recovery rate is the speed at which your heart returns to RHR after you exercise. The faster your recovery rate, the fitter you are.
