Short term effects

• There are no short term effects on the skeletal system
• Muscular system effects:

  • Increased muscle temperature
  • Latic acid is accumulated
  • Muscles fatigue
  • CO2 increase
  • Oxygen deficit
• Muscular system impacts:

  • Increased muscle elasticity and range of movement at joints. Reduced risk of injury
  • Reduced ability to perform and maintain exercise intensity
• Cardiovascular system effects:

  • Heart rate increases
  • Stroke volume increases
  • Cardiac output increases
  • Redistribution of blood flow via vascular shunting
• Cardiovascular system impacts:

  • Increased transport of oxygen and nutrients
  • Increased gas exchange at muscles
• Respiratory system effects:

  • Respiratory rate increases
  • Minute ventilation increases
  • Tidal volume increases
• Respiratory system impacts:

  • Increased oxygen intake to the lungs
  • Increased gas exchange at the lungs
  • Quicker removal of CO2
