CARDIOVASCULAR FITNESS CARDIOVASCULAR fitness is the fitness of the heart‚ blood and blood vessels. “Cardiac” is another word for heart‚ and “vascular” refers to blood vessels. Of all the parts of fitness‚ this part is one of the best for helping you feel good and enjoy life more and to reduce stress. Cardiovascular fitness helps you look good because the exercises you do to maintain your fitness help you control your weight and develop a good physique (figure) and increases your self-esteem.

Cardiovascular response to changes in body position and physical activity Abstract The aims of the experiment were to investigate the cardiovascular responses to changes in body position and exercise on human blood pressure using an electronic (automated) blood pressure meter. Moreover‚ monitoring changes in blood flow and blood pressure in the body while sitting‚ lying supine‚ standing‚ as well as engaging in low intensity exercise of walking and medium intensity exercise of squatting after

Lab 34b Cardiovascular Physiology 1. What was the baseline heart rate for the frog? 59-63 bpm 2. Which wave is larger‚ the one for atrial contraction or the one for ventricular contraction? Why? Ventricular. It shows the strength of the ventricle as it pumps blood‚ and it is a thicker muscle to pump stronger as it contracts 3. At what time during the contraction cycle was it possible to induce an extrasystole? The time during the relaxation part of cardiac cycle. 4. By clicking the Multiple
