physiological adaptations during aerobic training needed!!

[enigm@tic]

Can some describe the physiological adaptations that will occur in response to aerobic training?..

[powerburn]

it will get easier. heart will beat less, you will breath less, your body will adapt in almost every way.

thanks mate

Aerobic/cardio training will lead to:

1. strengthening the muscles involved in respiration, to facilitate the flow of air in and out of the lungs,

2. strengthening the heart muscle, to improve its pumping efficiency and reduce the resting heart rate (increased stroke volume),

3. strengthening of muscles throughout the body, which can improve overall circulation and reduce blood pressure,

4. increase in the total number of red blood cells in the body to facilitate transport of oxygen throughout the body (increased plasma volume).

The increased stroke volume is measurable via your resting heart rate. You should see a difference in your resting heart rate after a sustained regimen of aerobic training. Your heart wil not need to beat as frequently, since it will move more blood per beat. There is a lot of info out there to determine a decent resting heart rate based on your age.

thanks sucher that hit the spot!

Improved [myoglobin], [hemoglobin], [RBC],mitochodrial density, cardiac output, stroke volume, vital and tidal capacity, decreased HR, improved VO2 Max, time to fatigue, endurance capacity, decreased sweat concentration but quicker time to perspiration, improved HDL levels, along with a myriad of hormonal and enzymatic alterations that are likely too complex for you to understand. hope that helps.

BTW, []'s around a word means concentration.
