Muscle Response To Acute Exercise
Physiology of fitness
Acute exercise lasts for the length of a training session. During this time our bodies respond to the exercise and physical stress of the physical activity in lots of different ways. These are called acute responses. Acute responses immediate responses to exercise, such as an increase in body temperature and heart rate.
Musculoskeletal response
The musculoskeletal system allows and enables the body to move through a system of muscles, bones, tendons, cartilage and ligaments. Each past of the system is operated by the nervous system, which has its main control center in the brain, this creates voluntary movement such as kicking a ball. The body moves through different muscle contractions, these contractions are …show more content…
This is regulated by;
The inspiratory center, which increases the stimulation of the diaphragm ad external intercostal muscles. It also stimulates the other muscles used during inspiration, such as the pectorals minor and sternocleidomastoid. This increases the force of contraction and therefore increases the depth of inspiration. The expiratory center stimulates the expiratory muscles, which are the internal intercostal muscles, obliques and rectus abdomens. This causes a forced expiration, which reduces the duration of insulation.
In response to this, the inspiratory center immediately stimulates the inspiratory muscles, causing them to inspire. The results in the intensity of the exercise increasing, the depth of breathing decreases and the rate of breathing increases.
Increased tidal volume
Tidal volume is the amount air inhaled and exhaled with each breath. This is usually around 500cm cubed. Tidal volume increases to around 3-4 litres during exercise. This increase occurs as the breathing rate pulmonary ventilation increased during exercise, which increases both the depth and rate of
