Cardiorespiratory Endurance
Cardiorespiratory Endurance
• Basic Physiology of Cardiorespiratory Endurance Exercise
• Benefits of Cardiorespiratory Exercise
• Assessing Cardiorespiratory Fitness
• Developing a Cardiorespiratory Endurance Program
• Exercise Safety and Injury Prevention
3-2
The Cardiorespiratory System
• Cardiorespiratory system: system that circulates blood through the body; consists of the heart, blood vessels, and respiratory system
3-3
Benefits of Cardiorespiratory Endurance Exercise• Cardiorespiratory
endurance exercise helps the body:
• Become more efficient
• Cope better with physical challenges
• Resist chronic diseases
3-4
FIGURE 3.2Immediate and long-term effects of regular cardiorespiratory endurance exercise
3-5
Improved Cardiorespiratory Functioning• Endurance exercises
enhance heart health:• Maintaining or increasing the heart’s blood and oxygen supply• Improving the heart muscle’s function• Strengthening the heart’s contraction• Increasing the heart’s cavity size• Increasing blood volume• Reducing blood pressure
3-6
Improving Cellular Metabolism
• Regular endurance exercise improves metabolism
• Increases capillaries in muscles
• Allows training muscles to make the most of oxygen and fuel
• Increases mitochondria• Prevents glycogen depletion
3-7
Reduced Risk of Chronic Disease
• Cardiovascular Diseases• Cancer• Type 2 Diabetes• Osteoporosis• Inflammation
• Inflammation: body’s response to tissue and cell damage, environmental poisons, or poor metabolic health
• Deaths from all causes • Physically fit people have
reduced risk of dying prematurely
3-10
Better Control of Body Fat
• Regular exercise increases daily calorie expenditure
• Exercise increases resting metabolic rate
• Improved immune function• Immune system: The physiological processes that protect us
from diseases such as colds, bacterial infections, and even cancer
• Exercise increases immune function

Improved Psychological and Emotional Well-Being• Performing physical activities provides proof of skill
mastery and self-control• Endurance exercises lessen anxiety, depression, stress,
anger, and hostility, while improving sleep
3-13
Choosing an Assessment Test
• The 1-Mile Walk Test• Estimates level of maximal oxygen consumption based on
time it takes to complete one mile of brisk walking and the heart rate at the end of the walk
• The 3-Minute Step Test• Measures how long it takes the
pulse to return to normal after three minutes of stepping exercise
3-14
Choosing an Assessment Test
• The 15-Mile Run-Walk Test• Oxygen consumption increases with speed
• The Beep Test• A prerecorded series of tones sound off
at faster and faster intervals, and the exerciser must keep up with the beeps
• Monitoring Your Heart Rate• Measure your heart rate using a heart rate monitor or
counting your pulse beats• Interpreting Your Score
3-15

3-16
Developing a Cardiorespiratory Endurance Program• Set realistic goals• Set starting frequency,
intensity, and duration of exercise at appropriate levels
• Choose suitable activities• Warm up and cool down• Adjust program as fitness improves
3-17
Setting Goals
• Set “SMART” goals• Specific• Measurable• Attainable• Realistic• Time frame-specific
3-18
Applying the FITT Equation
• Frequency of Training• Experts recommend 3 to 5 days per week
• Intensity of Training• Target heart rate zone: Heart rates that should be reached
and maintained during cardiorespiratory endurance exercise to obtain training effects
• Heart rate reserve: Difference between maximum heart rate and resting heart rate
3-19
Applying the FITT Equation
• Intensity of training• MET: Unit of measure that represents body’s resting
metabolic rate• Ratings of perceived exertion (RPE): System of monitoring
exercise intensity based on assigning a number to the subjective perception of target intensity
• Talk test
3-20
Applying the FITT Equation
• Time (duration) of training• Total duration of 20 to 60
minutes per day recommended
• Type of activity • Cardiorespiratory endurance
exercises include activities that involve rhythmic use of large muscle groups for an extended period of time
