| What is aerobic? | it means with oxygen. the first system to produce ATP; dominate system when adequate oxygen is delivered to the cell to meet energy production needs. i.e: when mulsces is at rest; uses fatty acids and glucose to produce ATP; produces more than anaerobic b |
| What is the All or Nothing Principle? | when a skeletal muscle is stimulated to contract it does so with maximaum force; cant grade contractile force like cardiac muscles can |

| What are the causes of muscular fatique | 1. Power event 1 - 30 seconds: Depleted ATP 2. 30 minutes heavy exercise: Build up of lactic acid 3. 3 hour marathon: depleetion of glycogen stores |
| what are changes in cardiac output due to aerobic conditioning | the ventricles hold more blood -the resting HR decreases-strove volume at rest increases--same cardiac output can be maintained at lower HR- increased mitichondrial density |
| What are the changes in O2 Extraction due to aerobic conditioning? | more capillaries; more mitochondria & More activity of mitochondrial enzymes |
| what is contractile force? | Golgi Tendon ORgans serve as a protective mechanism against excessive |
| What is the creatin phosphate system? | a 2ndary source anaerobic ATP(to glycogen); high energy phosphate molecule store in cells;used to resynthesize ATP immediately; system of energy transfer for resynthesis of ATP; system of energy transfer for resynthesis of ATP w/o oxygen via breakdown of |
| What are the CV effects of a single exercise session? | 1. Sytolic bp increase 2. diastolic bp no change or it decreases 3. blood flow to abdomen decreases (goes to the limbs) 4. periphia resistance in vasculary system decreases 5. ATP production increases |
| Whare are delayed onset muscle sorness? | Small tears in the muscle |
| what is Diastole | phase in which the heart refills |
| what is ejection fraction? | % total blood volume remaining n ventricles @ the end of diastole that is subsequentlly ejected during contraction --- 50% @ rest and 100% during exercise |
| what are factors limiting flexibilty? | 1. elastic limits ligaments & tendons; 2. muscle tissure elasticity 3. bone & joint structure; 4. the skin |
| What are the ACSM postive coronary risk factors? | family history of heart disease, 200+ Cholesterol, cigarette smoking |
| what are fast twitch muscle fibers? | fast speed of contraction & high capacity for anerobic glycolysis (e.g. sprinter, power lifter) |
| Formula to calculate VO2 Max? | VO2 max (ml/kg/min or L O2/min) = cardiac output max X O2 extraction max |
| WHat are the basis of any exercise program developmenet | Frequence Intensity Type and TIME |
| Glucose and Fatty acids are... | Primary energy source for runner 45-60 min @ 65% VO2 max |
| what is Glycogen? | Chain of glucose storied in muscle & liver; primary source of anaerobic ATP production |
| Golgi Tendon organ? | tendon organ/part of the nervouse system protecting the muscle from too much contractile fource; causes muscles to Relax? |
| Characteristics of of slow -twitch Muscles fibers? | They have a higher aerobic apacity than fast twitch fibers |
| hemoglobin? | proteins that carries oxygen in the red blood cells |

| What are the physiological effects of high altitude? | increased cardiac output |
| ischemia? | decreased bloodflow to the heart leading to insufficient oxygen to the hart and chest pain or angina |
