Unit 2 Acute response to exercise is short term effects that exercise has on the body. Musculoskeletal response An acute response of the musculoskeletal system during exercise includes an increase in blood supply. The short term effects on your muscles increases the temperature therefore there is more activation energy so chemical reactions are used by the musculoskeletal system and the metabolic activity increases. As the oxygen demand increases, more oxygenated blood needs to be supplied to the muscles so vasodilatation occurs so more blood can pass through the arteries. This affected me during the bleep test because vasodilation allows more oxygenated blood to travel to the actively respiring muscle tissues.
The body’s metabolic rate is increased as its need for energy is increased, and the body becomes more resourceful. Muscle tone and muscle mass increase after the muscles tear and reconstruct themselves. In addition to improved muscle tone and muscle mass, there are other effects of exercise for physical disease control and/or prevention. A person’s entire body system, including all the ***** 2 body parts, is in continuous movement when exercising. The cardiovascular (heart), circulatory, and pulmonary (lungs) systems probably benefit the most from routinely
Rigorous exercise primarily affects the skeletal system in the area of bone-mineral density. Providing weight-bearing loads on the body significantly affects the integrity, stability and strength of bone. Bone-mineral density is improved through chronic exercise in the form of resistance training. There are a variety of positive changes that occur in the cardiovascular system due to rigorous exercise participation. Rigorous exercise increases several vital components of the cardiovascular system such as heart size, stroke volume, cardiac output, blood flow and blood pressure.
Compression is also be used for helping with severe cases of shin splints, ensuring that it does not get worse. The effectiveness in doing rest, ice, and compression, either separately or all together, is very high and should allow athletes to recover from shin splints at a much higher rate. Stretching and strengthening the legs for treatment should only be done after rest to prevent further strain on the tibia. Stretching and exercising is another great way to help strengthen tibia. In this, stretching and exercising the leg muscles, the muscle will be able to increase endurance, and prevent of muscle fatigue, thus preventing
This single metabolic fact accounts for the profound changes in not only respiration, but also in cardiac and circulatory physiology during exercise. Increased oxygen supply is provided by increases in both arterial oxygen delivery and tissue oxygen extraction; at the same time there is increased carbon dioxide transport on the venous side. The need for increased gas exchange by exercising muscles leads to the following general physiologic
The body receives oxygen from the lungs and transmits it to your muscles through your bloodstream. The heart controls the flow of blood throughout the body and your heart rate is a factor of that flow. Therefore when your muscles work harder and require more oxygen, your heart rate increases to meet the needs to maintain a consistent internal state, the harder you work the faster your heart pumps. The probable homeostatic responses to changes in the internal environment during exercise to the breathing rate, exercise will increase the demands on your body to supply the fuel it needs to perform. Your body’s need for oxygen will increase.
Being active can increase levels of HDL, the good cholesterol. Exercise also gets the blood flowing throughout the body at a faster rate, which also works the heart. When the heart is being exercised, it gets stronger, which can prevent some cardiovascular diseases and risks. Some other health concerns that can be reduced by exercise are stroke, metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, depression, certain types of cancer, arthritis and falls (Mayo Clinic). Exercise improves mood.
Bones respond to lifting, making them stronger and then helping to prevent osteoporosis. Your metabolic rate increases, as lifting builds muscle, and muscle burns more calories than fat. When you lift, it rips little strands of muscle tissue, and the muscles grow back bigger and stronger. This makes me stronger, and able to do more things in my life. As result of being stronger, I am able to increase my performance in sports.
This is done because it is said to increase aerobic capacity therefore having more oxygen intake as well as the prevention of hypertension and improving cardiovascular diseases and consequently improving quality of life in patients with heart failure or coronary artery disease (Guiraud et al, 2012, p 599). In HIIT, a person is able to maintain physical exercise through bursts of vigorous activity for longer periods than during continuous or traditional exercises and it is more commonly done through high intensity cycling or running (Gibala & McGee, 2008). Traditional exercises or continuous exercises on the other hand, sees a person performing physical activity for a prolonged period of time without rest periods in order to build up their endurance, working muscles and improve cardiovascular strength and increase oxygen intake (Laursen, 2010) leading to a healthier brain with less depression and anxiety symptoms. When a person exercises, different biological effects takes
Lastly, exercise increases macrophage production, salivary immunoglobulin A, and increase immune cell circulation improving the function of the immune system. Psychologically, they diminish anxiety and depression, control stress and minimize its negative effects on the body, improve self-esteem, self-concept, and body image, and improve cognition and problem solving. There are two types of fitness, aerobic fitness and muscular fitness, with their own benefits. Aerobic fitness pushes your body and forces it to adapt to adapt to the overload that the exercise is causing when trying to complete continuous tasks. This will later enable you to participate in harder workouts and exercise in the future.
