Aerobic conditioning

being able to give out a little sprint at the end or to pass someone while I am running. This is one of the reasons why the lactic acid system and ATP systems are still important for the Mud, Sweat and Tears event even though it primarily uses the aerobic system. Interval training is also a good way to train because it allows you to do small sections of high intensity work and still run the same distance. For instance in the example above I could have ran the full (90x6) 720m and been exhausted for

knowledge of the two main types of energy systems: aerobic and anaerobic. The aerobic, or oxidative system is used for any physical activity that lasts more than two minutes, such as swimming or hiking, because it can supply energy for longer periods of time (Fahey 61). Meanwhile, the anaerobic, or nonoxidative system comes into play during high-intensity exercises that last from about ten seconds to two minutes, such as sprinting. Unlike the aerobic system, the anaerobic system has a much more limited

Stress Stress has no defined definition and cannot be measured. It varies across each individual. It can be either good stress or bad stress depending on the nature, extent and outcome. It can be a good stress if it is temporary, positive, motivational and helpful for an individual to accomplish more and can be a bad stress if it leads to mood swings and affects body systems. Stress is mostly commonly known as physical, emotional and mental disturbance of a human body. Things that are stressful

Bryanna Ward #21421728 The Effects of Fitness Training on VO2 max and VCO2 Max Abstract: Mammals consume oxygen and produce carbon dioxide as part of their metabolism process in order to maintain body functions. This occurs at all times, both rest and during intense work, within mammals. During times of greater work, skeletal muscles work harder than they do at rest. This in turn increases their metabolic rate and results in a greater demand for oxygen. It has been proposed that fitness training

Figure skating requires the athletes to use precise and nearly perfected executed moves during a routine. Aerobic Training strategies are used for training figure skaters. Normal practice times run as long as two hours, two times a day totaling at least four hours on ice. “During a two hour training session roughly 2,200 kcal/day are burned” (Bozeman, 1998). While a two hour training session, 250-300 kcal/hr are used. In order to keep a balanced diet skaters are recommended to primarily intake carbohydrates

American exercise that was created in the mid-90s by a Colombian fitness instructor named Alberto "Beto" Perez. The fabrication of Zumba was accidental. It was stated that Perez arrived to teach his fitness class one day, and forgot his traditional aerobics music. So he used his Latin music that was available at the time and substituted it for that class (Murphy 2015). This improvised class was a hit to his students. Now Zumba is taught in gyms and studios all over the world. Not only is Zumba upbeat

that restore humor and fun in their lives. Tkachuk and Martin (1999) claim that constant worrying among humans facilitates the cycle of anxiety and depression. In a study reviewing systematic research Perraton, Kumar and Machotka (2010) state that aerobic exercises such as yoga, Pilates, Tai Chi and anaerobic training including machine-based resistance and standing exercises, keep the patients occupied and reduces the stressors. Further, in the study, Wipfli, Landers, Nagoshi, and Ringenbach (2009)

I really enjoyed my fitness program because thanks to it I realized that I am good at doing physical performance when I am motivated. In this occasion, I was motivated because when I set myself an objective I make sure I accomplish it or at least I try very hard to accomplish it.

I liked this activity, and thanks to it I was able to rediscover myself an adapt a healthier lifestyle
