11. The first pitch is harder to stop. The first pitch has
greater momentum because it has a greater velocity, so
the change in momentum to zero is greater.

2.1.4 Explain the mechanics of ventilation in the

2. Describe the process of breathing and comment on
how exercise affects this process.
Starts with the breathing (inhalation) of oxygen rich
air through the mouth and nose and into the lungs.
This is done by changing the pressure inside the lungs
to be lower then outside the lungs. When this occurs
air will flow from the higher pressure outside of the
lungs to the lower pressure inside.

The diaphragm is the muscle that facilitates this

2. Describe the process of breathing and comment on
how exercise affects this process.
The exhalation of air is done in the reverse. The
diaphragm relaxes and recoils back to its starting
position. This decreases the area (volume) in the chest
cavity which in turn increases the pressure inside the
lungs. The air then flows from high to low pressure
out of the lungs.

During exercise there is a need for additional oxygen
and a need to get ride of additional carbon dioxide
being produced. The rate of breathing will increase. In
addition, muscle of the crest wall, abdomen and
shoulders will assist in increasing the area (volume) of
the chest cavity to bring in more air. They will also
assist in compressing the chest cavity to decrease the
area and increase the pressure so more air can be
exhaled.

Blood is a specialised type of connective tissue.
It is heavier and more viscous than water and
accounts for about 8% of our total body weight.
Healthy adult males have around 5-6 litres of
blood and females about 4-5 litres.
Its color varies, depending upon the amount of
oxygen it is carrying, from dark red (oxygen
poor) to scarlet red (oxygen rich)

Blood performs a number of specialized
functions:
Transports nutrients, oxygen, carbon dioxide, waste
products and hormones to cells and organs around
the body.
Protects us from bleeding to death, via clotting, and
from disease, by destroying invasive microorganisms and toxic substances.
Acts as a regulator of temperature, the water
content in cells, and body pH.

The heart is an involuntary muscle with striated

The heart wall is composed of three layers and
four chambers which are separated by a septum
and valves. A triple layered bag called the
pericardium surrounds, anchors and protects the
heart.

The atria act as receiving chambers for blood
returning to the heart. They are relatively small and
thin walled, because they only have to pump blood
the relatively small distance into the ventricles.
The ventricles are quiet large, because they are
responsible for propelling blood from the heart into
circulation around the body.

muscle
The heart is able beat spookily after being
separated from the body of it’s owner (as
seen in horror films) is not totally a product
of overactive imaginations. The heart can
actually continue to beat for a number of
hours if supplied with appropriate nutrients
and salts.
This is because the heart has it’s own
specialized conduction system and can beat
independently of it’s nerve supply.

The sinoatrial (SA) node is a small mass of
specialized muscle in the posterior wall of the
right atrium. Because automatic self-excitation of
the SA node initiates each heart beat, setting the
basic pace for the heart rate, the SA node is
known as the pace maker.

Although the heart is capable of beating
independently of body control systems, in
order to adapt its rate to the changing
needs of the body it is carefully regulated
by the nervous system. A number of other
factors, including hormones, ion

Parasympathetic innervation originates in the
cardiac centers in the medulla and passes to the
heart by way of the vagus nerves. Vagus nerve
fibres richly supply the SA and AV nodes. When
stimulated, these parasympathetic nerves
release acetylcholine, which slows the heart.

Sympathetic nerves that serve the heart originate
in the upper thoracic spinal cord and reach the
myocardium by way of several nerves sometimes
called accelerator nerves. These nerves supply
the nodes and also the muscle fibres themselves.
When stimulated, they release norepinephrine or
noradrenaline, which increases the heart rate as
well as the strength of ventricular contraction.

Noradrenaline is released from the adrenal medulla

but it is also a neurotransmitter in the central

where it is released from noradrenergic neurons

cardiac output and stroke volume at rest and during

Cardiac Output = the amount of blood pumped
from the heart in one minute. This measured in
litres per minute.
Stroke Volume = the amount of blood pumped by
each ventricle in each contraction. The average
volume is is about 0.07 litres of blood per beat.
Basal Heart Rate = when heart rate is reduced to
it’s minimum. E.g. when sleeping.

One response to exercise of the cardiovascular
system is the increase in cardiac output from
around 5 litres at rest to between 20 and 30 litres
during maximal exercise. The response is due to
an increase in stroke volume in the rest to
exercise transition, and an increase in heart rate.

2.2.8 Explain cardiovascular drift
If you begin a 90 minute steady state ride on
your bicycle trainer at a controlled intensity,
your heart rate may be 145 after 10 minutes.
However, as you ride and check your heart rate
every 10 minutes, you will notice a slight
upward "drift".

2.2.8 Explain cardiovascular drift
By 90 minutes, your heart rate may be 160.
Why is this happening if intensity is held
constant? There are two explanations. As you
exercise, you sweat. A portion of this lost fluid
volume comes from the plasma volume. This
decrease in plasma volume will diminish venous
return and stroke volume.

2.2.8 Explain cardiovascular drift
There is also a second reason for the drift during an
exhaustive exercise session. Your heart rate is
controlled in large part by the "Relative" intensity of
work by the muscles. So in a long hard ride, some of
your motor units fatigue due to glycogen depletion.

2.2.8 Explain cardiovascular drift
Your brain compensates by recruiting more motor
units to perform the same absolute workload. There
is a parallel increase in heart rate. Consequently, a
ride that began at heart rate 150, can end up with
you exhausted and at a heart rate of 175, 2 hours
later, even if speed never changed!

Cardiac performance is determined by
factors such as preload, afterload and heart
rate. Preload is related to the end-diastolic
volume when there is passive tension in the
ventricles.
The Frank-Starling law of the heart refers to
the principle that the more the heart fills
during diastole, the greater the force of
contraction during systole, so the higher the
end-diastolic volume (EDV) the more
forceful the next contraction is.

Arterioles have a much smaller diameter

On the other hand when one stands still for a long
period of time, e.g. when a soldier stands at
attention, blood pools in the veins. Within a few
moments, pressure increases in the capillaries (veins
are not accepting blood from them because they are
dammed up with their own), and some plasma is
lost to interstitial fluid. After a short time as much as
20% of the blood volume can be lost from
circulation in this way. Arterial blood pressure falls
and blood supply to the brain is diminished,
sometimes resulting in fainting.

cardiovascular
system
How well your body can transport and use oxygen during
exercise.
The more CO2 you expel the closer you
are to fatigue, you no longer use O2 for
energy.
Proper Units: mL/kg/min
O2/body mass/time

Young Vs Old
Older people have a much lower VO2 MAX.
This can be attributed to issues such as
atherosclerosis and hardening of the
arteries.

2.2.15 Discuss the variability of maximal oxygen
consumption in selected groups
Trained Vs Untrained
A VO2 MAX exceeding 60ml is an indication
of a trained athlete.
Trained athletes are able to demonstrate
their full cardio-respiratory potential, whilst
Untrained athletes yield fatigued muscles
and are only able to reach sub-maximal
levels.

consumption in selected groups
Males Vs Females
VO2 of untrained female is 2 litres/min, an
untrained male of the same age is 3.5
litres/min.
Heart size scales in proportion to lean body
size, so therefore the male heart is usually
bigger than the female heart. Stronger
pump results in a increase in MAX VO2.
