Background Information: Blood transports nutrients, oxygen and water to every cell in the body. There are 2 kinds of blood cells, red and white The primary function of white blood cells is to fight germs. The heart is made of muscle tissue, so exercise will make the heart pump. The heart supplies oxygen to our muscles when we are exercising and to our brain to keep us alert. The 3 elements of fitness are stamina, strength and flexibility. Strength is the amount of force muscles exert when performing a action. The ability of the heart and blood vessels is to deliver oxygen and nutrients to the body's tissue, including muscle is stamina. Flexibility is the ability of the joints to move freely and without discomfort. When exercising, the muscles need more oxygen because muscles work harder than normal. So there is a increase in blood flow and heart rate.…

It was stated by heart.org, “Your resting heart rate is the heart pumping the lowest amount of blood you need because you’re not exercising… A lower heart rate is also common for people who get a lot of physical activity or are very athletic. Active people often have lower heart rates because their heart muscle is in better condition and doesn’t need to work as hard to maintain a steady beat.” This means some individuals may last longer or be faster in certain physical situations due to their heart being used to the state or exercise. It would take less energy to do the same physical activities of a fit person than a person who does not exercise “During exercise, blood flow through tissues is changed dramatically. Its rate of flow through exercising…
In relation to heart rate and exercise, our cardiovascular system plays a vital role in delivering blood and nutrients to our muscles controlling the body temperature. While we exercise, the muscles will need more oxygen which will cause increase in the amount of blood because our heart will be pumping and moving that blood from passive organs to active muscles. Hormones will release to give sign for our heart rate to increase so that more oxygenated blood and nutrients will be transported to where we need them the…
Performing cardiovascular endurance exercises is done to help strengthen ones heart. The heart is one of the most important muscles in the human body. By going through the process of strengthening your heart you can increase your lifespan, decrease risk of heart disease, decrease risk of diabetes, increased metabolism, improved recovery ability, and much more. Also, due to the fact that cardiovascular health has a direct correlation with oxygen flow to the…
Stamina is both muscular and cardiovascular endurance. Muscular endurance is the muscle’s ability to continue contracting over a given time. It can be developed by progressive overload, which also increases the muscle’s strength, and this also helps the endurance of the muscle. During a ballet class, when working on technique, the repetitive movements will improve muscular endurance. Cardiovascular endurance is the ability to continue aerobic respiration and exercise over time. During exercise the heart rate increases from its resting rate to its maximum rate. After exercise it then returns to its resting rate. In a ballet class the heart is not usually at its maximum rate for long periods of time, for the exercises rarely exceed more than three or four minutes, and if doing a travelling sequence, a dancer would cross the floor once, or do an exercise once, then wait for others to do so before repeating on the other side. Therefore aerobic activity is not continued for long enough, so it recommended that a dancer should do some other aerobic activity outside of the class, such as running in order to increase their aerobic fitness and overall stamina.…

Dual cardiovascular demand is something that helps the heart beat like a pacemaker. It occurs when the heart is not giving the correct output. When the blood is not pumping blood into the right chamber for various reasons can effect the heart from pumping properly. This can play a role in the kinesiology topic because we need to have our hearts healthy in order to do exercises or training. Having the heart healthy is important while endurance training because the exercises can be more…
Exercise is a healthy approach to life, a hobby in varied forms, a must for a physically fit lifestyle, but also a necessity for a sharp mind and emotional stability? Physical activity promotes not only what the eyes see, but also what is felt inside. School, health administrators, and even mothers have preached the importance of exercise to our body. However, the real benefit is reaped through the most complex organ, the brain. With an organ that’s constantly at work, exercise increases the executive function, blood flow, and chemical secretion creating a euphoric experience. Exercise is the gateway to an enlightenment of a self-sustaining emotional benefaction.…

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. Having good cardiovascular fitness increases your energy level and you can be active for longer periods without tiring or becoming out of breath. A person needs to strengthen the heart muscle and improve the other parts of the cardiovascular system in order to have good health. Someone who exercises will have a stronger heart muscle than a person who does very little exercise. Scientific studies show that active people have less heart disease and are less likely to have heart attacks than inactive people. Some symptoms of heart disease can start to develop when people are in their teens. For this reason, it is important to develop and maintain cardiovascular fitness early in life.…
First of all, when a person begins exercising it immediately starts working their heart. When a person’s heart begins working because of exercise it pumps harder; this can lead to a better circulation for blood flow. Since the blood flow is increasing it causes more oxygen to be carried throughout the body. Better circulation due to exercise can also lower one’s blood pressure. All of these can result in a stronger and healthier heart due to working out.…
