The Effects of Exercise on Recovery Time Aims ==== I am going to test how long it takes a persons heart rate to return to their resting hear rate after different periods of exercise. I will vary the time spent exercising each time and I will keep the intensity of the exercise constant. Preliminary Work ================ During my preliminary work I tested how my heart rate reacted to different periods of exercise. I measured my resting heart rate at 77 bmp. Unfortunately the school does not own heart monitors so I had to take my pulse manually so this may not be accurate. Firstly I did step-ups for one minute at a set intensity, my heart rate was 117 bpm. Then I did step-ups for two minutes and measured my hear rate, it was 126 bpm. When I did the same exercise and intensity for five minutes my heart rate was 250 bpm. Because I thought that there was enough difference between my bpms I decided to use minutes for my exercise times. I will use one minute, two minutes, three minutes etc up to five minutes. I used a stop clock to measure my bpm. I measured how long it took my body to recover when I exercised for one minute and when I exercised for five minutes. For five minutes of exercise it took my bpm about three minutes to recover and when I exercised for one minute it took my bpm about one minute. I think that these recovery times are far enough apart to use minutes for my experiment. Equipment · Stop clock · Heart monitor · Stepping block Fair test Factors · I will take five repeats of the experiment and average the results to get a better end result. · I will use the same person throughout the experiment because some people will recover faster than others, i.e. people that do a lot of exercise regularly will have a faster recovery rate because their heart and lungs will be fitter and healthier than a person who doesn't
The main materials include energy drinks, water, test subjects, heart rate monitor and a timer. For the test subjects I chose 17 year old boys who all weighed about the same. As for the procedures they were fairly simple and required at least an hour to do. My first step was checking each person’s heart rate and writing it down on a piece of paper. After that, I measured one cup of each drink into separate cups to make sure they were each consuming the same amount. Followed by them drinking the drink they were assigned to, I set the timer for 15 minutes to notify me when I needed to check their heart rate again. Once an hour had past I had enough data to make a conclusion.
Materials: This Cardiovascular activity was performed by different groups of students who were divided into groups of 4. A low step platform and stopwatch was used in both experiments of this study.
The first thing we did was create the Phenol Red Solution which was 20 ml of water and 8 drops of Phenol Red. Then we used a straw and exhaled into the solution and counted how many second it took for the color to change and we recorded that. Then we measured our heart and breathing rates by counting how many times we took a breath in one minute, and how many beats we had in 30 seconds. After this we exercised for 1 minute and repeated the steps from before, and recorded the results. Then we exercised for 2 minutes and repeated the steps from earlier and recorded those
In addition, each of the test subjects had high resting heart rate. On average, resting heart rate should be approximately
Due to the strong and growing evidence in scientific literature on the beneficial effects of physical activity on health and well-being, the importance of Clinical Exercise Science has increased. Physical activity is defined as any bodily movement produced by skeletal muscles that requires energy expenditure. Exercise, is a subcategory of physical activity that is planned, structured, repetitive, and purposeful in the sense that the improvement or maintenance of one or more components of physical fitness is the objective (http://www.who.int/dietphysicalactivity/pa/en/; last accessed on 30 April 2016). Generally speaking, Clinical Exercise Science is an applied clinical branch which deals with the application of various exercise modalities for
Schools serve as an amazing venue to provide students with everyday physical movement, and to instruct the essentialness of general physical action for wellbeing. Shockingly, most individuals' get little to no general physical activity while in school. Budgetary obligations and the pressure to increase test scores have brought on school authorities to address the worth of PE and other physical activity programs. This has prompted a significant lessening in the time accessible for PE, and in a few cases, school-based physical action projects have been totally eliminated.
Aim- To determine if the intensity of an exercise affect the heart rate of a 15-year-old boy.
The two major things that will help an athlete while measuring the cardiovascular drift are progression and hydration levels. The heart rate of an athlete working hard during a workout should be no more than their maximum heart rate which is found by, if you’re a female take 226-age, if you’re a male take 220-age. If while doing a workout the maximum heart rate is exceeded by too much it may be necessary to take a break or slow down greatly. This may also help with traking the hydration of an athlete. If an athlete stays hydrated their core temperature will stay regulated which means they won’t sweat as much, which also means the heart won’t be under as much stress while transporting the oxygenated blood throughout the body to the
To complete the data sheet I used to finalize my hypothesis, I was given a sheet that had a survey and different activities I had to perform and check my pulse while doing them. The survey consists of questions that ask if I smoke, exercise, drink coffee, drink soda, drink Energy drinks, eat breakfast, and eat dinner. The activities included resting, walking, riding an excursive bike, drinking water, drinking soda, drinking coffee, taking an exam, driving through traffic, eating breakfast, eating dinner, and awakening from sleep. I had to record my pulse before, during, five minutes after, and...
My resting heart rate is 64 bpm and my bleep test score (which I aim
Creative new training methods, developed by coaches, athletes and sport scientists, are aimed to help improve the quality and quantity of athletic training ( Kellmann, 2010, p.1). However, these methods have encountered a consistent set of barriers including overtraining ( Kellmann, 2010, p.1). Due to these barriers, the need for physical and mental recovery in athletics brought an increasing attention in practice and in research ( Kellmann, 2010, p.1).
The materials used: one wristwatch (with second hand), two variably indifferent humans (one male, one female), and a standard staircase at CCC. The method was simple: two test subjects were exposed to two trials involving one minute of physical activity and x minutes needed for the recovery of the heart rate. Before the experiment began, each subject's resting heart rate was taken. This would become the controlled variable. Next, each subject ran up one set of stairs at CCC, one stair at a time, for one minute. After one minute of activity, the subjects stopped and began taking his or her heart rate.
The purpose of this experiment was to gather data on how the amount of time spent active impacts the speed of heart rate in beats per minute. The hypothesis stated that if the amount of time active is lengthened then the speed of the heart rate is expected to rise because when one is active, the cells of the body are using the oxygen quickly. The heart then needs to speed up in order to maintain homeostasis by rapidly providing oxygen to the working cells. The hypothesis is accepted because the data collected supports the initial prediction. There is a relationship between the amount of time spent active and the speed of heart rate: as the amount of time spent active rose, the data displayed that the speed that the heart was beating at had also increased. This relationship is visible in the data since the average resting heart rate was 79 beats per minutes, while the results show that the average heart rate after taking part in 30 seconds of activity had risen to 165 beats per minute, which is a significantly larger amount of beats per minute compared to the resting heart rate. Furthermore, the average heart rates after 10 and 20 seconds of activity were 124 and 152 beats per minute, and both of which are higher than the original average resting heartbeat of 79.
Pulse rates can vary from 60 up wards to about a 180 (this is the
Most people know exercise is good for you, but they usually don’t know just how good it really is. Everyone receives many benefits from exercising no matter your age, sex or physical ability. Exercise can affect your body directly and indirectly. There are several ways exercise affects people: emotionally, internally, and physically.
