Topic 2.  Exercise Physiology

Physiology is the study of how the body functions.  This topic explores the efficiency of these systems during exercise.


2.1 Ventilatory System

The structure and function of the ventilatory system supports life. The health of our ventilatory system can be measured in a variety of ways that change with technology. The overall best bet is a healthy lifestyle that ensures the oxygen transport system is functioning at its optimum levels.


2.1.1 - List the principal structures of the ventilatory system
2.1.2 - Outline the functions of the conducting airways
2.1.3 - Define the terms PULMONARY VENTILATION, TOTAL LUNG CAPACITY, TIDAL VOLUME, EXPIRATORY RESERVE VOLUME, INSPIRATORY RESERVE VOLUME  and RESIDUAL  VOLUME.
2.1.4 - Explain the mechanics of ventilation in the human lung.
2.1.5 - Describe the nervous and chemical control of ventilation during exercise.
2.1.6 - Outline the role of hemoglobin in oxygen transportation.
2.1.7 - Explain the process of gaseous exchange at the alveoli.

2.2.11 - Discuss how systolic and diastolic blood pressures respond to dynamic and static exercise.
2.2.12 - Compare the distribution of blood at rest and the redistribution of blood during exercise.
2.2.13 - Describe the cardiovascular adaptations resulting from endurance exercise training.
2.2.14 - Explain maximal oxygen consumption.
2.2.15 - Discuss the variability of maximal oxygen consumption in selected groups.
2.2.16 - Discuss the variability of maximal oxygen consumption with different modes of exercise.
