Bmc Recovery

Introduction: In this experiment, cardiovascular fitness is being determined by measuring how long it takes for the test subjects' to return to their resting heart rate. Cardiovascular fitness is the ability to "transport and use oxygen while exercising" (Dale 2015). Cardiovascular fitness utilizes the "heart, lungs, muscles, and blood working together" while exercising (Dale 2015). It is also how well your body can last during moderate to high intensity cardio for long periods of time (Waehner 2016). The hypothesis is that people who exercise for three or more days will return to their resting heart rate much faster than people who only exercise for less than three days.

All subjects were healthy third year physiology students (n=10), aged between 19-24. Basal heart rate was measured using an OMRON, time 0, after which each participant consumed 250 ml of Red Bull each. Heart Rate was measured again at 30 mins, 60 mins and 90 mins after the full consumption of Red Bull. For each time point three readings were taken and the average was used. Participants were required to sit down during the whole procedure, and remain claim. A paired t-test was performed to determine whether there was a significant difference in heart rate at the start and end of the trial. Significance level was set at p<0.05.

We conducted a study, 2 subjects took their blood pressure and pulse before exercise, immediately after exercise and 5 minutes after exercise, their appearance and sweating was also noted. This table shows that before exercise both subjects had relatively normal blood pressure, immediately after exercise both subject 's blood pressure had dropped. The blood pressure was retested after 5 minutes of rest both subject 's blood pressure risen back up to a normal level. Before exercise subject A 's pulse was average, after exercise it had risen to compensate for the need of oxygen to get around the body quicker. After 5 minutes this had then returned back to a normal pace when the body had relaxed. Subject B had an average pulse before exercise, immediately after exercise it had risen, 5 minutes after exercise it had dropped again to a normal pace. the differences in pulse shows that subject A is healthier than subject B because the difference between subject A 's resting and exercise

P6- follows guidelines to interpret collected data for heart rate, breathing rate and temperature before and after a standard period of exercise

In addition, heart rates vary according to exercise, physical needs, age, gender, air temperature, etc. In this experiment the dependent variable

The graphs also show that Sara’s heart takes the longest to recover after exercise, followed by Jonathan and then me. This means that from these results, Sara is the most unfit and I am the fittest out of the three of us. Since all three of us did the exact same kind of moderate and strenuous exercise it shows that Sara’s heart is not as used to

The respiratory monitor measured baseline respiration for a minute. Respiratory rate was also measured by the respiratory monitor throughout the entire experiment. After initial respiratory rate had been measured for about 30 seconds, researchers established a baseline heart rate range using the pulse oximeter. This was done by recording maximum and minimum heart rates within a period of 30 seconds. Since the site of the experiment had abundant background noise, silence could not be used as the control variable. Therefore, white noise was used as the control instead. The subjects listened to “Original White Noise” by White! Noise using Sony MDR7506 Dynamic Stereo Headphones. The subject was instructed to pedal at a rate between 8 and 10 mph and was supervised by an experimenter to ensure that the participant stayed within the proper pedaling speed range. As the participant pedaled, the researchers changed the resistance on the stationary bike between resistance levels 8 and 11 to make sure that the participant’s heart rate was within the preferred range. Subjects were monitored to ensure they had the heart rate ranges of 55-65% of his or her age-predicted heart range. The subject pedaled for two minutes,

Throughout the course of everyday life, variability of heart rate is present for each individual. As the college students on the campus of Truman State University go about their day-to-day lives, they too experience the phenomenon of heart rate variability. While resting and using little movement, many students spend a great number of hours each day studying - a period of time when the body requires a smaller cardiac output in relation to times of movement. However, during the course of an academic day, Truman students, like the majority of human beings, are faced with instances under which time is limited, and they must increase work output to get from one destination to another. Additionally, there are instances in which physical activity is required with variation of difficulty within a workload/resistance. Through this understanding, one can see that the heart rate changes throughout the course of each day, and is thus dependent on the intensity of each daily activity. Although every student on Truman State University’s campus has his/her own unique physiological makeup and personal physical fitness level - every individual is impacted by the variability of his or her own heart rate in response to activities of daily life.

trained athletes will have a lower heart rate during this period of exercise. Recovery heart rates –

In performing this activity/assessment, I have learned a few things. From this assignment I have learned that the amount of exercise or physical activity for a certain amount of time affects your heart rate and pulse. We were instructed to run up and down the stairs for a total of eight minutes with a 30 second break in between every two minutes to measure your pulse. We recorded data to see what our pulse was every two minutes of physical activity for eight minutes. In doing this i have concluded that the longer you perform physical activity the higher your pulse and heart rate increase, and the longer it take your pulse and heart rate to go back down to your resting heart rate.

The purpose of this experiment is to investigate the recovery time of the heart rate for teenagers according to various levels of exercise.

The heart was more likely to have quicker recovery time when the cardiovascular tissue was better equipped to deal with the strain of the exercise and better conditioned. The weakness with this study is there are too many variables that have been put into play with this experiment. Between the type of exercise, the intervals in which the exercises were to be done, the duration of the experiment. The amount of people within the experiment, as well as their age and family history could have played a large role in this experiment. These variables, as well as other variables that develop more questions could quite possibly be condensed and more isolated in future

Using the step-test experiment, in order to assess the effects of how gender can effect cardio recovery time. We divided our class into two groups with two individuals in each group. It did not depend on what gender calculated your recovery time for you. We measured our partners pulse rate before even beginning the step-test and after they exercised using step-test. After the step test experiment the data demonstrated that men in our class showed a small increase in their pulse rate than the women did. The mean for women was 84 while the men’s mean was 84.375.

If the subject started exercising again for another cycle the volunteer’s heart rate, breathing rate, and respiration will increase again to accommodate

Most endurance trained athletes and participants in a group exercise class monitor their exercise intensity through palpation of the carotid or radial artery. Heart rate (HR) is used as an indictor of exercise intensity because of the linear relation between HR and oxygen consumption (Cotton & Dill, 1935). The researchers of this study have decided to use pule rate palpation to monitor exercise intensity because the procedure is described in many textbooks and it is common in various exercise settings (American Collage of Sports Medicine, 2000). However most chronic exercisers have a rapid recovery of HR following the cessation of exercise, and therefore carotid or radial palpation could underestimate exercise HR. Also, endurance trained individuals have a greater arterial baroreflex sensitivity and are more responsive to carotid palpation. Therefore, the palpation of the carotid artery may unload arterial baroreceptors and elicit feedback reductions in HR (Heidorn & McNamera, 1956).
