What is exercise physiology? Exercise physiology is the science that describes‚ explains and uses the body’s response to exercise and adaption to exercise to maximise human physical potential. Exercise physiology is very important in touch because the amount of physical activity our body can tolerate‚ the better we will play for the longest amount of time. ATP/CP system is used by the body to produce ATP quickly in the absence of oxygen. High intensity activities lasting for less than 10 seconds

There are many aspects of being an exercise physiology major. The field of exercise physiology has always interested me‚ but I was never sure about what career path I would choose. This year has really given me a better understanding of what path I would like to pursue. I really wanted to be an occupational therapist‚ but shortly after decided that I wanted to be a physical therapist. According to Writing‚ the annual salary for a physical therapist is in a range from $70‚000-$100‚000 (2010). I wanted

Analysis to Their Relevance of Touch Football Touch football is a type of football in which the ball carrier is downed by touching instead of tackling. In the game of touch football‚ there are many different fitness components that relate to specific touch positions. This essay will evaluate the components of fitness and analysis their relevance to touch football. To complete this‚ a series of fitness tests were done to help determine my suitability to touch football resulting in a recommendation

Exercise physiology Touch football is a game derived from Rugby League that requires the opposition to tag or touch the opponent to stop their progress. This assignment is centred on exercise physiology in relation to touch football and my performance in the position of centre. Exercise physiology is the study of the function of the human body during various exercise conditions. Throughout a game of touch football our bodies rely on various energy systems to meet energy demands. Whilst addressing

ATP stores are fully replenished after 2-3 minutes or 50% can be replenished after 30 seconds. The ATP-CP system is anaerobic

Lab 9 Report: Exercise Physiology Introduction When the human body is put to work and undergoes any sort of activity‚ it requires more energy and resources in order to sustain this. The cells in muscles and organs must work faster‚ and thus require more energy to do so. The body compensates by increasing heart rate and respiration in order to increase the amount of oxygen entering‚ carbon dioxide leaving‚ and rate at which these gases are delivered to cells throughout the body. In this lab‚ we

Physiology plays a major role in the way the body functions. In football the body has to adapt to the intensity of the game as it varies from low to high. A footballer would mainly use their aerobic energy system due to constant and consistent exercise. It is suggested that footballers use 90% of their aerobic metabolism (Mcmillan et al 2004). Yet they would also use their anaerobic energy when displaying skills such as striking as it uses a short burst of energy. The aerobic capacity of a footballer

well. The process of testing an instrument’s accuracy is known as calibration. The purpose of this lab was to calibrate a variety of equipment frequently utilized in the Exercise Physiology lab and to become familiar with the operation of the calibrated equipment (Lab manual). The equipment calibrated in the exercise physiology lab was the speed of the Parvo treadmill‚ the incline of the Cosmed treadmill‚ the resistance of the ergometer‚ and the measurements of the Detecto and Chatillon scales.

how they are used in the game of touch football and how they function together. To understand the energy systems‚ our class went through a number of fitness tests. The Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) stores in the muscle and lasts for approximately 2 seconds and the resynthesis of ATP from Creatine Phosphate (CP) will continue until CP stores are used up‚ which is approximately 4-6 seconds. This gives us around 5-10 seconds of ATP. The use of ATP in touch football is high intensity‚ it would be used
