Physiology of fitness Acute exercise lasts for the length of a training session. During this time our bodies respond to the exercise and physical stress of the physical activity in lots of different ways. These are called acute responses. Acute responses immediate responses to exercise‚ such as an increase in body temperature and heart rate. Musculoskeletal response The musculoskeletal system allows and enables the body to move through a system of muscles‚ bones‚ tendons‚ cartilage and
