Heart walls are muscular. They increase in thickness due to exercise, especially the walls of left ventricle increase in thickness. As a result, the left ventricle is able to take up more blood than normal. This results in increase in stroke volume. During rest, the cardiac output remains constant, so due to increase in stroke volume, the heart rate decreases slightlly. But during strenous exercise, the cardiac output increases, due to increase in heart rate. So, all the body parts get enough amount of oxygenated blood during strenous exercise also. Overall the muscle performance improves.
One more thing to take into consideration is that, the heart beat which should be highly increased during strenous exercise, decreases slighly than the normal high value in these conditions. So, overall the person will get less tired during strenous exercise also in this way. Thus, muscle performance improves...
what cardiovascular adaptations are associated with physical fitness? How do these changes help improve muscular performance?
five components of fitness: cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, muscular endurance, body composition, and flexibility. These are common tests to administer to a new client at a fitness center - commercial or clinical. You would likely not do all of these tests (lab and field), but would select at least one test from each component. Below are two descriptions of 'clients.' Select one of these (state which one you are using) and list the tests that you would choose to use...
Name two physiological changes that occur in the muscle due to exercise training which allow an individual to improve their fitness (VO2max)? Why do these changes result in a change in overall fitness? Does max HR change with training? Are there any cardiac adaptations to long-term exercise training?
answer all Physical activity and fitness benefit people's physical and psychological wellbeing and improve their resistance to disease. The components of fitness are flexibility, muscle strength, muscle endurance, and cardio-respiratory endurance. To build fitness, a person must engage in regular physical activity.

Describe the 4 components of fitness. Explain how carbohydrates, fats and proteins are used for energy during physical activity. What changes could you / would you do to increase your physicial activity? COURSE: Essentials of Nutrition
A fitness course claims that it can improve an individual's physical ability. To test the effect of a physical fitness course on one's physical ability, the number of sit-ups that a person could do in one minute, both before and after the course, was recorded. Ten individuals are randomly selected to participate in the course. The results are displayed in the following table. Can it be concluded, from the data, that participation in the physical fitness course resulted in significant...
