Cardiovascular/ cardio respiratory endurance 3. Flexibility 4. Body Composition Essential Body fat for men - ✔✔-2-5% Essential Body fat for women - ✔✔-10-13% Aerobic exercise definition - ✔✔-large-muscle, rhythmic activities that can be sustained without undue fatigue for 20 minutes (i.e. jogging, swimming, aerobics, cross country skiing, walking) Stay in a steady state At rest the body is primarily controlled by the ______________ nervous system - ✔✔-parasympathetic parasympathetic nervous system - ✔✔-keeps blood pressure, heart rate, and metabolism low VT1 - First Ventilatory Threshold - ✔✔-Ventilation increases as a reaction to increased lactate and need for oxygen as one begins exercising. This is approximately the highest intensity that can be sustained for 1-2 hours of exercise. This is the upper limit for most non-exercisers who are not in shape and working out for the first time in a very long time. passing the talk test means you are below this stage. VT2 - Second Ventilatory Threshold - ✔✔-Point that high intensity exercise is harder to continue b/c of accumulation of lactate. The highest intensity that can be maintained for 30-60 minutes of exercise. speaking is definitely not comfortable. At rest, what percent of cardiac output is directed toward the muscle? - ✔✔-10-15% During maximum exercise, what percent of cardiac output is directed toward the skeletal muscles? - ✔✔-80-85% There is less blood flow to what parts of the body during exercise? - ✔✔-Kidneys and gastrointestinal tract phosphagen system - ✔✔-meets the immediate energy needs of the body during the onset of physical activity Lactate system - ✔✔-provides energy to the body during endurance activities prior to reaching a steady state (100 m sprint) Aerobic System - ✔✔-provides body with energy during endurance activities once the body reaches a steady state (1000 M run) fat as fuel - ✔✔-used for energy based on what muscle has access to it. Triglycerides need to be broken down into FFA's and glycerol to be metabolized. It's usage depends on the intensity and length of exercise. protein as fuel - ✔✔-Must be broken down to amino acids before they can be used as fuel. The skeletal system can directly metabolize certain amino acids for fuel. lactate as fuel - ✔✔-produced by muscle during exercise then transported to the liver where it is converted to glucose and used as fuel throughout the body (the Cori Cycle) carbohydrate as fuel - ✔✔-stored as glycogen in both the muscle and liver. Most prominent fuel. What three things does the ability of a skeletal muscle to contract rely on? - ✔✔-1. Maximal Force Production (how much force the fiber produces per unit of fiber cross sectional area) 2. Speed of Contraction (fast-twitch faster due to higher ATPase) 3. Muscle Fiber Efficiency (requires less energy to accomplish a specific amount of work) Research suggests that fast-twitch muscles produce __ to ___ % more force than slow-twitch muscles because fast-twitch fibers contain more _________ _______-___________ per cross sectional area of fiber. - ✔✔-10-20%, myosin cross-bridges What are the four mechanisms the body uses to give off heat? - ✔✔-1. radiation (heat loss in the form of infrared rays) 2. conduction (heat loss from a hot thing touching a cold thing and transferring the heat) 3. convection (heat is transferred to air or water in contact with the body) 4. evaporation What are benefits of regular physical activity? - ✔✔-improved cardiovascular function, lowered systolic and diastolic blood pressure, decreased body weight and fat mass, improved lipid profile, improved glucose control, decreased anxiety and depression, enhanced feelings of well-being, decreased incidence of several cancers (e.g., colon, breast, prostate), and decreased incidence of osteoporosis.
