Q

What are the three main areas that benefit from exercise?

What is a long term effect?

What is this otherwise known as?

What happens to the lungs as a result of aerobic and anaerobic fitness increasing?

What is the body better able to cope with in exercise as a result of aerobic and anaerobic fitness increasing?

Why is this?

What two things are you able to do as a result of aerobic and anaerobic fitness increasing?

What three things happens to the absorption of water as a result of aerobic and anaerobic fitness increasing?

What is the main effect of training long term with an increase in anaerobic exercise?

A

Muscular skeletal system, cardio-respiratory system and performance

Where a change occurs over a period of time (month/year)

Adaptation

The lungs work more efficiently

Body better able to cope with the carbon dioxide produced by exercise

Because the lungs are removing it more efficiently

Work harder and longer than before

Water is more efficiently used by cells or lost through sweat or exhaled air

There will be an increase in the ability to move in quick bursts.

Q

What do weight bearing exercises do to the bones?

What does your body do in response?

What does this then do?

What does weight bearing exercise also do to ligaments and tendons and reduces what?

What will increased strength training do to a muscle?

What increases muscular endurance?

When does adaptation occur?

What does your resting heart rate give an indication of and why?

What is heart recovery rate?

What dies it mean if the faster the recovery rate?

A

Puts them under stress

Your body produces more cells that build new bone

Makes the bones stronger and denser

Increases the strength of ligaments and tendons reducing the chances of injury

Result in an increase in both the size and strength of the muscle

Light weights and many repetitions

During the recovery period after the training session is completed

Your fitness due to the heart getting bigger and stronger with training

The speed at which your heart returns to resting heart rate after you exercise

The fitter you are.

Q

What two things happens to your stroke volume when you exercise regularly?

What is the definition of cardiac output?

What two factors control this?

When do these change?

What reduces the risk of Coronary Heart Disease (CHD)?

What happens to the blood with increased exercise and why?

What three impacts does this have on the blood vessels?

What happens to the number of red blood cells?

What drops due to increased exercise?

What three things increase in your respiratory system due to increased exercise?

What happens to the number of alveoli due to increased exercise?

A

Stroke volume increases both at rest and at work

The amount of blood ejected from your heart in one minute

Stroke volume and heart rate (pulse)

When you participate in exercise over a long period of time

Hypertrophy of cardiac muscles

Increased capillarisation- improved fitness increases the number of capillaries in heart muscle

Helps make blood vessels more elastic, flexible

Increase in the number of red blood cells

A drop in resting blood pressure

Increased lung capacity, lung volume and vital capacity

Increase in the number of alveoli.

Q

What two things increase in strength in the respiratory system due to increased exercise?

What happens to the alveoli after regular exercise?

What two things happens as a result?

What then increases as well?

What is the definition of recovery?

A

Increased strength of diaphragm and external intercostal muscles

More alveoli become available for gaseous exchange

More oxygen can be absorbed by the capillaries and more carbon dioxide taken from them

VO2 max (aerobic capacity) increases too

The time required for the repair of damage to the body caused by training or competition.
