and the Physiology of Stress. Most Americans are suffering from moderate to high stress‚ with forty four percent reporting that their stress levels have increased over the past five years (Clay‚ 2011). Headaches‚ heart disease and high blood pressure have been associated with chronic stress. In the article Chronic stress may damage dna it states that Medical care professionals estimating that nearly seventy percent of doctor visits are directly related to ongoing stress (Sharf‚ n.d.‚ para. 4).

BTEC Level 3 Unit 2: The Physiology of Fitness Describe the musculoskeletal and energy systems response to acute exercise. What is an acute response? An acute response is an immediate response to exercise. Acute exercise will last throughout the full length of your training session. During the training session our bodies begin to respond to the exercises we are doing and begin to feel the changes within our bodies and mind due to physical strain and stress of the physical activity in lots
