Effects of trainingStroke Volume Heart

Greater volume of blood per heartbeat pumped through the body of the trained person than the untrained person

Effects of trainingPulse Rate

The trained individual has a lower pulse rate than the untrained person

Effects of trainingBlood

The rate of lactic acid is lower in the trained individual, resulting in a lower blood lactate concentration.

Lactic Acid- the substance that is transferred from glucose when a muscle contracts.

The more lactic acid, the more fatigued an individual will become.

Effects of trainingArterial Blood Pressure

Increase in blood pressure is less in trained individual than in the untrained individual

Effects of trainingRed Corpuscles

Bone Marrow becomes redder, indicating an increased rate of blood manufacture

Effects of trainingRespiration

Trained - 6-8 breaths/minUntrained- 18-20 breaths/min

Deep diaphragmatic breathing in the trained person, hence the diaphragm moves very little. A trained individual takes in smaller amounts of air in greater amounts of air and absorbs oxygen from the air in greater amounts than untrained individuals

Effects of trainingNervous System

Enhances nerve-muscle coordination

Nervous fatigue maybe lessened by pleasant physical activityNervous fatigue accumulated through anxiety or mental work is offset through muscular activity

Factor affecting fitnessTobacco and Fitness

SmokingSpeeds up the pulse rate, raises the blood pressure, constricts the blood vessels and may cause damage
