Effect of Training on Lifestyle Diseases

What is atherosclerosis?

• Buildup of fatty deposits in the blood vessels

• Narrowing of the airways

• Blockage of the coronary artery

• Decrease in blood viscosity

What is the main artery that supplies the heart with oxygenated blood?

• Coronary artery

• Bronchiole

• Capillary

• Diaphragm

What is the term for the narrowing of the artery that could lead to a heart attack?

• Angina

• Asthma

• Emphysema

• Bronchitis

What happens during a heart attack?

• Complete blockage of the coronary artery

• Decrease in blood pressure

• Increase in blood viscosity

• Enlargement of the heart

How can training help reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases?

• Increasing high density lipids and decreasing low density lipids

• Narrowing the airways

• Increasing blood viscosity

• Decreasing blood pressure

What is the term for the narrowing of the airways in respiratory diseases?

• Bronchitis

• Atherosclerosis

• Angina

• Emphysema

What is the effect of training on asthma?

• Stronger respiratory muscles and increased oxygen intake

• Decreased resting breathing rate

• Increased surface area of the alveoli

• Capillarization around the bronchioles

What is COPD?

• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

• Coronary artery disease

• Cardiovascular disease

• Chronic respiratory disease

How does training support COPD?

• Increased capillarization and stronger respiratory muscles

• Decreased blood pressure and thinner blood

• Increased blood viscosity and reduced blood clotting

• Narrowing of the airways and increased oxygen intake

What is the benefit of increased surface area of the alveoli?

• Greater gaseous exchange and more oxygen in the body

• Decreased resting breathing rate

• Increased blood viscosity

• Narrowing of the airways
