  1. Long and Short term effects of exercise

  2. Short term effects • List as many short term effects of exercise/training on the body you can think of. Can they be grouped? (respiratory,circulatory)

  3. Short term effects Circulatory • Skin colour changes • Blood moved to surface for heat reduction- Vasodilatation • Blood moved to working muscles • Heart rate increases • Stroke volume increases • Cardiac output increases • Water lost through sweat • Arteries widen to allow more blood through Respiratory • Tidal volume increases • Breathing rate increases and becomes deeper- aerobic respiration • Stroke volume increases • Blood flow to areas not in use is reduced • Muscles begin to fatigue • Gaseous exchange becomes more efficient as more alveoli are used. • Energy released- Glycogen in liver and muscles is released

  4. Long term effects of Exercise/Training • List as many long term effects of exercise/training on the body you can think of. Can they be grouped? (respiratory, circulatory, muscular) • Can you also write down which method of training might be best at bringing about this change?

  5. Long term effects Circulatory • Heart strengthen • Increase in heart wall size • Resting stroke volume increases • Resting Cardiac output increases • Resting heart rate decreases • Recovery rate is reduced • Decrease in blood pressure • Respiratory • Gaseous exchange becomes more efficient- increased ability to carry O2 • Muscle fatigue happens later • Vital capacity is increased • Capillarisation of alveoli

  6. Long term effects • Muscles strength is increased – • Hypertrophy= Increase in muscle size because of exercise • Atrophy= Reduction in muscle size because of lack of exercise • Muscular endurance is increased • Increased tolerance of lactic acid • Body fat % is reduced • Reduced likelihood of respiratory problems • Reduced likelihood of heart disease • Increase in tendon ligament and bone strength.
