A cardiovascular system that works well consists of...

*A heart that pumps efficiently (e.g., more blood pumped with each heart beat). *Blood that carries oxygen to tissues effectively. *Unclogged blood vessels that allow for effective delivery of oxygen.

your heart rate should drop less than __ bpm in 5 minutes

120

Normal blood pressure

120/110

High blood pressure

140/90 or more

Low blood pressure

90/60 or less

static muscular edurance

A muscle's ability to remain contracted for a long period

Recovery Heart Rate

After you exercise, your heart should recover to about 120 beats per minute within five to six minutes, and should be below 100 beats per minute after 10 minutes.

Capillaries

Are tiny blood vessels that serve as bridges between arteries and veins. This is where food and oxygen are transported from the blood to the cells.

Ligaments

Attach bones to bones

Tendons

Attach muscle to bone

recommendations for stretching:

Avoid Stretching swollen joints, stretch what you strengthen and strength what you stretch, Don't force the stretch past the point of pain

BMI

Body mass index

Fast Twitch (muscle fibers)

Contract at a fast rate and have great strength but very little endurance

Slow Twitch (muscle fibers)

Contract at a slow rate and have great endurance. Needed for endurance runners, cyclists, cross country ski racers

Muscle vs. Fat

Five pounds of muscle is half the size of five pounds of fat

Principle of Progression

Gradually increase the intensity - stretch farther and hold longer as you progress.

10 minute rule

If you don't feel like exercising, then exercise for ten minutes and see if you change your mind

PNF Stretching

It involves contracting the muscle before you stretch it so that you can stretch it farther

Why is cardiovascular fitness important?

It will increase your energy level,Help you feel and look good,Creates body fat loss,Helps with stress reduction ,Improves health,Can extend your lifespan,Forms more arteries in the heart,,Clears fats from the bloodstream Lowers chance of atherosclerosis,Strengthens the heart muscle,Decreases chance of heart disease or stroke Improves self concept

diastolic

Lower #. this is your heart refilling or relaxing between beats.

a method of stretching based on the principle that paired muscle groups (agonists and antagonists such as quadriceps and hamstrings) should be worked together so the stretch reflex is lessened and flexibility is more easily improved.

PNF stretching

RICE Principles

Rest, Ice, compression, elevation

10% rule

States that you should increase your workout no more than 10% per week

When a muscle is suddenly stretch, what is called to action?

Stretch reflex

avoid injuries

Stretching can help

Muscles

Surround, protect, and move bones

The right side of the heart

The VEINS carry deoxygenated blood back into

Resting Heart Rate

The number of times your heart beats per minute while at rest. Take in bed, before getting up.

Heart Rate or Pulse

The pressure of blood on the artery wall due to heartbeat.

Movement of oxygen

The right side of the heart is responsible for sending blood to the lungs, where the red blood cells pick up fresh oxygen. This OXYGENATED blood is then returned to the left side of the heart. From here the oxygenated blood is pumped to the whole body supplying the fuel that the body cells need to function.

body fat below 5%

Too little body fat

stretch reflex

When a muscle is called into action

Cardiac cycle

When you breath in, oxygen is absorbed from the lungs and by the blood stream, and oxygenated blood is sent to the left side of the heart .

Cardiovascular System

Your cardiovascular system consists of your heart (cardio), blood, and blood vessels (veins, arteries and capillaries).

Diabetes

a condition in which a person's body cannot regulate sugar levels (due to the inability of the pancreas to produce sufficient levels of insulin.)

Isometric

a muscle contraction in which no movement occurs.

Isotonic

a muscle contraction that pulls on the bones and produces movement.

joint

a place in the body where bones come together.

Pyramid training

a system of adding more and more to the workout

Ballistic stretching

a technique that uses "bouncing" to the desired position to increase flexibility

Physical Fitness

ability to carry out the demands of everyday life without getting tired

Aerobic

activities are characterized by rhythmic, and continuous activity that can be maintained over long periods of time

Anaerobic

activities are characterized by short, intense bursts of activity that can seldom be maintained for longer than 1 minute at a time without rest

factors that influence physical fitness

age, heredity, and maturation

factors that increase the risk of cardiovascular disease

age, obesity, stress, blood pressure

Isokinetic

an exercise that regulates the resistance and/or speed of movement through a full range of joint movement.

typical sports related injuries

ankle sprain, ligament tear, tennis elbow, ligament tear, Achilles tendinitis,

Examples of joints

ankles, knees, hips, wrist, elbows, shoulders

Physical Activity

any bodily movement designed to increase your energy expenditure above what you normally do

Low-density lipoproteins

are often called the "bad cholesterol" because they contribute to plaque build up in the blood vessels (atherosclerosis).

examples of a dynamic stretch

arm circle, swinging legs from side to side, rotating head in circle in front of body

Normal blood pressure

around 120/80

Normal blood pressure

around 130/85

lordosis

excessive curvature in the lower back

kyphosis

excessive curvature in the upper back

The left side of the heart

forces oxygenated blood away from the heart and into the body through ARTERIES.

FITT formula

frequency, intensity, time, type

ballistic stretch

gentle bouncing or bobbing movement

For sports performance, it is important for major muscle groups to be flexible:

hamstring, calf muscle, lower back

arteriosclerosis

hardening of the arteries
