The Musculoskeletal System

How the body responds to exercise:
Musculoskeletal system-
This system responds to acute exercise in the three following ways;
There is an increase of blood supply during exercise and for a short amount of time afterwards. This therefore causes our body temperature to increase as well as metabolic activity in the muscles. The blood supply is increased due to the increase of metabolic activity as this increases the body’s demand for oxygen. This would apply in sports such as football as a footballers body would have to produce more red blood cells in order to allow more oxygen to be transported around the body and to the muscles in use so that the player can continue on for longer in matches.
Muscle Pliability and range of movement is increased. …show more content…

This is because the body is put under a lot of stress when exercising and micro tears are therefore an effect of this stress. These tears cause pressure on the nerves and pain and swelling is an outcome of this. These micro tears are essential in order to gain muscle. This would be important in sports such as weight lifting as when put under the stress of lifting the heavy weights micro tears will be a result of this which is what needs to happen in order to ensure that their muscles become stronger to improve their ability.
The energy systems response-
The energy systems respond to acute exercise when the intensity becomes too much for the cardiovascular and respiratory system.
Phosphocreatine-This energy system works in order to aid the body when taking part in physical activities which last between 3-10 seconds at maximal intensity such as anaerobic sports, including 100m sprint as no oxygen is needed for this system’s …show more content…

Energy requirements of different sports and exercise-
Cardiovascular response-
This system responds to exercise in four different ways. These consist of;
Increase of heart rate. During exercise the adrenal gland produces a higher amount of adrenaline and noradrenaline which is sent to the heart. Then the hormones influence the sympathetic nerves which causes the heart to beat stronger to increase the stroke volume in order to increase the heart rate and increase cardiac output. This is evident in sports such as long distance running where people get adrenaline close to the end of the race where they begin to feel tired but they push themselves on. The body would release adrenalin in order to keep the body going which therefore increases the heart rate.
Increase of blood pressure. During exercise the systolic blood pressure increases
Vasodilation and vasocontraction
Respiratory

The cardiac cycle is the coordination of the filling and exhausting of blood by electrical signals that cause the heart muscles to contract and unwind. The contraction of the heart is directed by a nerve drive that goes from the SA node to AV node to AV group to Purkinje fibers to the myocardium. Amid the cardiac cycle, the heart contracts by means of systole, pushing blood out of the heart, and unwinds through diastole, filling the heart with blood. Cardiomyocytes, or cardiac cells, are striated and are in charge of the pumping of the heart; they are the main muscle cells with intercalated plates. The heart's inner pacemaker controls and times the thumping of the heart by means of electrical signals.

The functions of the human cardiopulmonary system can be broken down into two, circulatory system and the respiratory system. The main goal of these two systems is to maintain homeostasis in our body. Homeostasis can be described as a type of condition where the internal continuity of an individual has to keep steadiness, regardless of any external changes from the outside environment. External changes from the outside environment may include factors such as excitement, stress, exercise, diet, and much more. Exercise can be carried out because the human body can endure a high level of exercise during a prolonged period of time.

P6 review physiological data collected, describing the effects of exercise on the musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, respiratory and energy systems Cooper Run The first test I did was the Cooper twelve minute test. This tests ones endurance. Advantages of this test is that you don’t need a lot of equipment, it is simple to set up and do so this won’t take up too much time. More than one person can do the test and one time.

According to Martini, F., Tallitsch, R., Nath, J., (2018), the ANS functions outside of our conscious awareness and makes routine adjustments in our body’s systems (Martini, Tallitsch, & Nath, 2018, p. 450). The autonomic nervous system helps maintain the homeostasis of our bodies by regulating body temperature and coordinating cardiovascular, repertory, digestive, excretory, and reproductive functions. Efferent axons innervate the visceral organs and the efferent nerve fibers and ganglia of the ANS organize in two systems or divisions. The sympathetic division and the parasympathetic division. The sympathetic division is most active during times of stress, exertion, or emergency, also known as “flight or fight”.

Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Nervous System Salma Ewing Feb 15, 2018 The sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system are two divisions of the autonomic nervous system of the body. They are very closely related and coordinated with each other and regulate the unconscious functions of the body. The autonomic nervous system is responsible for our involuntary reactions and controls our heart beat, digestive processes, blood flow and hormone production. This means that we can’t consciously control whether our heart beats or not.

Mental preparedness You need to be mentally ready for the changes your body will go through as a result of the fight-or-flight response during building searches: You may experience an increase in blood pressure, heart rate, and blood flow to major muscle groups. Simple movements will become difficult due to a lack of blood flow to the extremities.

This type of shock occurs when the heart is unable to pump blood effectively. This is evident to patients who have had myocardial infarction, such as John’s case. In this illness, the heart has decreased contractility resulting to decreased cardiac output. Such decrease will stimulate the sympathetic nervous system to activate the compensatory mechanism by increasing the heart rate as evident in John’s vital sign to increase the peripheral pressure and ventricular

Stress: Stress is related to sport and fitness because being stressed can affect your mental state of mind, this means you could make the wrong decisions within a sport or a fitness techniques. Due to being stressed your performances would drop and you wouldn’t be able to cope. This situation may arise because you may have other commitments. Alcohol: Alcohol can be related to sport and fitness because if a performer or athlete overdrink this could cause the person mind to get carried away and not to focus on the task in hand; this would also affect the person health. Alcohol can damage the person organs in the body they would need in order to perform to their maximum.

Now the digestive system is what helps us get some of the energy we need but the muscular system is what moves the food around our digestive track an out of our bodies. One of the biggest diseases that the muscular system has to deal with is the Iron Maid diseases. This malfunction is where the makeup of your muscles is remade and when they are impacted in a forceful way they turn to bone. This make the patient unable to move and it very slowly creates a pressure on their chest and stomach and makes them unable to do anything ever again.

Introduction Association Football, or more formally known as soccer is a multifaceted sport, in which success hinges on physical, technical, and tactical factors according to Stolen et al, (2005). Regarding the elite level of football, Reilly et al, (2000) specified that a number of physical and anthropometric prerequisites are necessary to compete. Over the course of a 45-week season, elite European football teams play more than 60 competitive matches, in addition to several pre-season friendlies (Lago-Peňas et al., 2011; Carling et al., 2012). Therefore, at specific times of the year players will be required to play multiple times within a single week, most notably the Christmas to new-year period within the English Premier league. The purpose
