Test Four Flashcards
how much heat production is increased during shivering
5%
WET relates to
temp as a result of humidity
acclimatization
adaptation over a long time period
heat loss must match
heat gain
what is the equation for body heat gain during exercise
heat produced- heat loss
what are the four principles of training
PROS, progression, overload, specificity and reversiblity
what are the differences in gender for heat tolerance
very small
Dry relates to
ambient temp
how much heat required to raise body temp
.83 kcal/kg
what are the adaptations during heat acclimation
increased plasma volume, earlier onset of sweating and higher sweat rate, reduced sodium chloride loss in sweat, reduced skin blood flow, increased cellular heat shock proteins
acclimation
rapid adaptation to environmental change and tends to be artificial
what are the two forms of involuntary heat production
shivering and action of hormones
during radiation, how much heat is loss at rest
60%
what specificity mean
specific muscles involved, specific energy systems utilized, the way muscles move
what is the most important means of heat loss during exercise with evaporation
heat loss at rest
which system is more genetically determined
anaerobic
can you reach steady state in hot environment
no
what is conduction
heat loss due to contact with another surface
increase in body temp is directly related to
exercise intensity
training can only improve anaerobic how much
to a certain degree based on fast 2x fibers
what are the guidelines for dehydration
hydrate before performance, consume 150 -300 ml fluid every 15 to 20 min, ensure adequate rehydration, monitor urine color
higher humidity makes it harder to
offload heat
normal core temp is
37 degrees celsius
VO2 max increases how much with trained atheletes
3 to 5% but it is still an important difference
