Acute and Chronic Response to Training

Which of these is an acute musculoskeletal response?

• Hypertrophy

• Increased enzymes

• Increased blood supply

• Reduction in blood pressure

When an athlete uses each energy system one after the other it is known as

• Vital Capacity

• ATP-PC

• Energy Continuum

• ATP Resynthesis

Hypertrophy of the heart takes place

• In the septum

• The Left Atrium

• The Aorta

• The left Ventricle

Hypertrophy Takes Place

• In the muscles

• In the heart and muscles

• In the heart, muscles and blood vessels

• All your musculoskeletal system

Hypertrophy is n

• Acute Response

• Chronic Response

Capilliarisation is (2)

• An acute response

• When more capillaries form allowing more diffusion

• When more alveoli form diffusing oxygen better

• A chronic response

When would a marathon runner use the ATP-PC System

• When running 26 consecutive 5minute miles

• At mile 22 when surging away from an opponent

• At mile 16 when a 4minute mile is done

• As soon as the marathon runner steps out of bed

A decrease in resting heart rate.... (2)

• Is an acute response

• Is a chronic response

• Happens because tidal volume increases meaning more air is passed in and out

• Happens because stroke volume and cardiac output go up as the heart gets more efficient

Which of these are acute responses? (3)

• Heart rate anticipatory rise

• Muscle fibre microtears

• Increased aerobic fitness

• Increased blood pressure

Which of these are chronic responses?

• Increased tendon strength

• Increased stroke volume

• Increased bone and calcium stores

• Decreased recovery time
