Study Notes

Heart Rate and Exercise Intensity

  • Heart rate is often used to measure stress and exercise intensity.
  • A linear relationship typically exists between exercise intensity and heart rate.
  • Resting heart rate can be influenced by factors like anxiety and mental stress, leading to higher initial heart rates.
  • Training can lower heart rates at specific exercise intensities.
  • Anticipatory effects can cause elevated heart rates before exercise due to anxiety.

Emotional State and Heart Rate

  • Emotional state, including mental stress, significantly impacts heart rate.
  • Higher heart rates during exercise can be observed in individuals experiencing anxiety or mental stress.
  • This anticipatory effect is apparent before the start of the exercise.

Training Effects on Heart Rate

  • Training results in lower heart rates at the same intensity levels.
  • The post-training heart rate response to the exercise will be lower than pre-training.
  • Consistent training leads to a shift in the heart rate values at each exercise intensity, leading to lower heart rates at the same speeds.

Heart Rate as a Measure of Training

  • Heart rate is an accessible and easy-to-understand measure of exercise intensity.
  • It can provide valuable feedback on training load and progress.
  • Limitations include influences from external factors (environmental conditions and mental stress).

Other Measures of Exercise Intensity

  • Skeletal muscle oxygenation (Sm02) is a measure of the amount of oxygen delivered to, and consumed by, skeletal muscle during exercise.
  • It provides specific feedback on a specific muscle group's oxygen availability.
  • Skeletal muscle oxygenation can decline even during a warm-up, illustrating reduced oxygen delivery compared to consumption.
  • Surface EMG (electromyography) is a method of measuring electrical activity in muscles; it provides a measure of muscle activation.
