Intensity

were based on the level of activities persons will be performing and the intensity of those activities. Total ninety-two individuals were asked to complete the survey and share their experiences and preferences on the recreational activities they wished to perform. The difficulty of a sport was divided into high- intensity and moderate intensity such as dancing, golf, walking. Persons who were participating in high-intensity sport such as basketball, hunting, climbing had experienced more…

York. 2. Describe and discuss the horizontal and vertical propagation of fire in grassland, shrub land, and forest as influenced by environmental variables of soil moisture, temperature, wind, and relative humidity. Include rate of spread and fire intensity in your discussion. (This is a very involved question.) (50 points) Horizontal and vertical arrangement is the orientation of fuel particles and the spaces between them. Grassland and shrub lands are vertically arranged fuel types, while…

treatments determined how the temperature will affect the color intensity of the atsuete and sugar beets. There were 4 test tubes used in each atsuete and sugar beets with each having a different treatment as seen in (fig 1) and (fig 2). The color intensity in each tube is divided into +,++, or +++. Yellow being the lightest (+) and the red being the darkest (+++). As seen in the results, Both the atsuete and sugar beets showed a strong color intensity for distilled water placed in a boiling…

The lactate threshold is the exercise intensity at which the blood concentration of lactate and/or lactic acid begins to exponentially increase. The reason for the increased lactate concentration in the blood at high exercise intensities muscle cells release lactate into the blood to be converted back into glucose by the liver (see the Cori Cycle): the high rates of ATP hydrolysis in the muscle release hydrogen ions, as they are co-transported out of the muscle into the blood via the MCT—…

The American College of Sports Medicine supports the point that light to moderate physical activity is beneficial for improving daily life activities in patients with the condition of COPD. Exercise can greatly reduce the disability associated with the disease by improving aerobic fitness, muscle endurance and breathing efficiency which ultimately improves the quality of life. Exercise guidelines by ACSM: People suffering from COPD may also have other diseases such as high blood pressure or…

efficiently use oxygen during the sustained exercise. In specific, aerobic training is significant for netball players due the stamina required to maintain intensity throughout the course of the game. The different type of aerobic training; continuous/ uniform (A single exercise sustained for an extended period, generally at low to moderate intensity- approximately 65%-80% of an athlete's maximum heart rate), fartlek (Frequent and random…

All energy systems are constantly working together, although there is always a bigger contribution from one energy system to another depending on the intensity and duration of the activity. During a soccer match the ATP-PC energy system is the dominant energy source for high intensity activities of up to 10 seconds. This is dominant when an outfield player is jumping for a header or a goalkeeper is diving to save the ball. The anaerobic glycolysis system is the highest contribution when working…

strength, muscular endurance, cardiovascular endurance, flexibility, and body composition. Each component has specific FITT principles: Frequency – how often?, Intensity – How hard of what level, Time (Duration), and Type. For cardiovascular endurance, the ACSM-FITT recommendations are: type – large muscle groups/rhythmic/continuous, intensity – 60-90% of maximum heart rate (MHR), time – 20-60 minutes for each bout, and frequency – about 3-5 days per week. In order to maintain or improve this…

public than athletes to get the most beneficial form of a fitness program for each person individually. F.I.T.T. stands for frequency, intensity, type, and time; when they are all put together differently and uniquely for each person, to give them the best exercise routine possible which can be modified at any time. Frequency is how often you exercise, intensity is how hard you walk during an exercise, type is the type of activity you are doing, and time is how long you exercise. The two…

Everyone wants to be healthy, whether one were to attain this goal by dieting or high intensity cardio there are always the select few that delve into the unforgiving world of weightlifting. Within weightlifting there are four main types of gym junkies,the meatheads,the crossfitters, and the fitness models. Each classification of lift is done by intensity of the exercises and diets. The meathead also known as bodybuilders are understandably categorized as a lifters that typically focuses on…
