GUNGAHLIN COLLEGE Human Movement EXERCISE PHYSIOLOGY (ACUTE) PHYSIOLOGICAL RESPONSES and ADAPTATIONS TO EXERCISE
DEFINITIONS • Acute response: an immediate response to an exercise session. • Chronic response: a long term response or adaptation to a number of exercise sessions, constituting a training program.
DEFINITIONS • Cardio-vascular: the system made up of the heart, blood & blood vessels. • Respiratory: the system made up of the airways & lungs.
DEFINITIONS • Cardio-respiratory: the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. • Muscular: the system made up of the skeletal muscles.
DEFINITIONS • Neuro-muscular: the nervous and muscular systems. • Musculo-skeletal: the muscular & skeletal systems.
DEFINITIONS Stroke volume (SV) is the volume of blood pumped from one ventricle of the heart with each beat. It is calculated by subtracting the volume of blood in the ventricle at the end of a beat.
DEFINITIONS • Cardiac output (Q) is the volume of blood being pumped by the heart, in particular by a ventricle in a minute. An average cardiac output would be 5 L·min-1 for a human male and 4.5 L·min-1 for a female.
DEFINITIONS • Respiratory rate (RR) is the number of breaths taken within a certain amount of time (frequently given in breaths per minute).
DEFINITIONS • Tidal Volume - The volume of air inspired or expired with each normal breath; normally about 500 ml.
DEFINITIONS • Respiratory (minute) volume (or minute ventilation, or flow of gas) is the volume of air which can be inhaled (inhaled minute volume) or exhaled (exhaled minute volume) from a person's lungs in one minute.
