Recovery

Question 9

Mark the equation which represents how our having a strong aerobic system can help to remove lactic acid after exercise.

Lactic Acid + Oxygen = Water + Carbon Dioxide + Glucose

Answer

Lactic Acid + Carbon Dioxide = Water + Oxygen + Energy

Answer

Lactic Acid + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Glucose

Accepted Answer

Country

Answer

Overall strength and fitness

Answer

Age

Answer

Sleep

Answer

Genetics

Question 11

Name the energy system that has been used by the athlete when performing the long jump.

Accepted Answer

Anaerobic

Answer

Lactic Acid

Answer

Aerobic

Answer

Fast Twitch Fibers

Question 12

Describe long-term changes to the heart as a result of regular aerobic exercise. Refer to the

left ventricle in your answer.

Accepted Answer

the cardiac muscle and increases in strength;

Accepted Answer

walls of the ventricle thicken;

Answer

higher amount of capillaries;

Answer

increase in size of the right ventricle;

Answer

low heart rate at rest;

Question 13

Suggest TWO ways that regular aerobic exercise develops the efficiency of the circulatory and respiratory systems and TWO more improvements to performance.

Accepted Answer

increased stroke volume;

Accepted Answer

more efficient gaseous exchange;

Accepted Answer

quicker recovery;

Accepted Answer

increased endurance;

Answer

the muscles will produce significantly more Lactic Acid

Question 14

Suggest two of the long-term effects of regular aerobic training on skeletal muscles.

Accepted Answer

more capillaries form around the muscles / muscles can work for longer / harder as they become more efficient at using oxygen;

Accepted Answer

muscles become thicker / hypertrophy / stronger / increase the power of contraction;

Answer

more capillaries form around the alveoli / heart rate at rest is lower / increased production of Lactic Acid;

Answer

muscles get tired faster / hypertrophy / stronger / increase the speed of contraction;

Answer

higher production of lactic acid / left ventricle wall becomes thicker / less tolerance to lactic acid / muscles get stronger

Question 15

Mark three benefits that regular anaerobic training may provide to a performer.

Accepted Answer

improves fast-twitch muscle fibers;

Accepted Answer

increases speed / strength / power;

Accepted Answer

increased oxygen debt tolerance;

Answer

increases number of slow-twitch muscle fibers;

Answer

slows metabolism and therefore slows recovery;

Question 16

Suggest two possible disadvantages for a performer of only using anaerobic training methods.

Accepted Answer

difficult to maintain technique at high intensity;

Accepted Answer

it can be difficult to maintain the level of effort on a regular basis;

Answer

will only develop the muscles, but not the heart in general;

Answer

make harder to lose weight as only aerobic exercises can help with it;

Answer

no adaptation to cardio-vascular system;

Question 17

Explain how lactic acid is formed in muscles and the effect it has on a performer retrospectively.

Accepted Answer

lactic acid is formed when the supply of oxygen to muscles is insufficient for the work they are required to do / causes muscle fatigue;

Answer

as muscles continue to work the level of lactic acid builds up / may cause the performer to work for a longer period of time;

Answer

lactic acid is formed during high-intensity work / does not affect muscles and movement in general;

Answer

lactic acid is formed during aerobic activities / muscles become more efficient;

Answer

without oxygen, glucose can provide energy for a longer period of time / helps the performer to recover faster;

Question 18

Explain the immediate effects of high-intensity exercise on a performer.

Accepted Answer

heart rate increases to move blood to the muscles at a faster rate to keep up with the demand of muscles;

Answer

low heart rate as a short term effect from exercising;

Answer

breathing decreases to provide the same volumes of oxygen (to the muscles);

Answer

blood is kept in the organs not directly involved in the activity;

Question 19

Describe TWO effects of long-term aerobic exercise on the circulatory system AND a benefit of each effect for a performer.

Accepted Answer

increased cardiac output / faster blood supply so performer can last the whole game;

Accepted Answer

lower resting heart rate / more efficient circulatory system so performer needs less effort to achieve the same level of performance;

Answer

increase in the size and strength of the heart / same blood flow so performer cannot work at a greater intensity;

Answer

increase in the volume of blood pumped / better gas exchange so the performer can recover slower and steady;

Answer

arteries grow larger and become more elastic / decreased oxygen content of blood supply

Question 20

Explain two changes to the efficiency of the circulatory and respiratory systems that result from exercise can benefit a performer.

Accepted Answer

more efficient gaseous exchange / more efficient gaseous exchange;

Accepted Answer

recovery rate increases / recover from exercise more quickly;

Answer

lower resting heart rate / the heart rate will reach maximum rate faster;

Answer

increased capillarisation / increases the supply of carbon dioxide and blood flow;

Answer

oxygen debt tolerance decreases / improves the performance

Question 21

A performer undertakes a cardio-vascular fitness test that involves running on a treadmill at constant intensity. Their heart rate during the test and during recovery is recorded. After six months of aerobic training the performer retakes the fitness test. What do we expect to find in relation to his Heart Rate at rest and speed of recovery, respectively?

Accepted Answer

heart rate increases at a slower rate / faster recovery

Answer

heart rate increases at a faster rate / slower recovery

Answer

heart rate increases at a slower rate / slower recovery

Answer

heart rate increases at a faster rate / faster recovery

Question 22

State two long-term benefits of exercise.

Accepted Answer

All alternatives are correct

Answer

improvements in health / less likely to suffer from heart disease

Answer

improve fitness / able to sustain exercise for longer

Answer

improvements in mental health / more able to cope with stress
