Summary of long-term adaptations to regular aerobic and anaerobic exercise. Aerobic exercise can cause several central cardiovascular adaptations, including an increase in stroke volume (SV) [5] and maximal aerobic capacity (VO 2 max), [5] [6] as well as a decrease in resting heart rate (RHR).

Cyclists may be trained and assessed by exercise physiologists to optimize performance. [1] Exercise physiology is the physiology of physical exercise. It is one of the allied health professions, and involves the study of the acute responses and chronic adaptations to exercise. Exercise physiologists are the highest qualified exercise ...
Neural adaptation or sensory adaptation is a gradual decrease over time in the responsiveness of the sensory system to a constant stimulus. It is usually experienced as a change in the stimulus. For example, if a hand is rested on a table, the table's surface is immediately felt against the skin.
Cycling is a popular form of exercise. Weight training. Exercise or workout is physical activity that enhances or maintains fitness and overall health. [1] [2] which is performed for various reasons, including weight loss or maintenance, to aid growth and improve strength, develop muscles and the cardiovascular system, prevent injuries, hone athletic skills, improve health, [3] or simply for ...
Adaptation affects all aspects of the life of an organism. [24] The following definitions are given by the evolutionary biologist Theodosius Dobzhansky: 1. Adaptation is the evolutionary process whereby an organism becomes better able to live in its habitat or habitats. [25] [26] [27] 2.
Respiratory adaptation is the specific change that the respiratory system undergoes in response to the demands of physical exertion. Intense physical exertion, such as that involved in fitness training, places elevated demands on the respiratory system. Over time, this results in respiratory changes as the system adapts to these requirements. [1]
Supercompensation describes the adaptation of muscles on a previous stimulus over time. [3] Long-term endurance training induces many physiological adaptations both centrally and peripherally mediated. [4] Central cardiovascular adaptations include decreased heart rate, increased stroke volume of the heart, increased cardiac output. [4]
