Improve cardiovascular system with this method Oxygen used as fuel
Not generally recommended for those with high BP
The human body is a machine…it needs fuel to run & like a machine it creates byproducts. Oxygen also considered a necessary fuel 40% to heat to keep our body temp around 98.6
Everything ingested for fuel utilization is broken down into Glucose (blood sugar). There are glucose stores in the muscle fibers as well as in the blood. When oxygen is brought in by the blood the energy pathways in the muscle fibers can create ATP. This is what allows you to continue to exercise. When your glucose stores become depleted or the oxygen supply does not meet the demand you will fatigue.
- @ beginning of exercise carbs are being burned to create ATP (warm-up) The longer you exercise (after about 5-10 minutes +) your oxygen intake increases and you are able to burn fats as well as carbs - Proteins are used as a last resort energy source. Their primary role is for muscle rebuilding.
Like a machine your body gives off by products. The first 3 are constant byproducts that will never change. 2) evaporation, or the conversion of a liquid (sweat) to a gas, becomes the body's only legitimate defense against overheating. Millions of sweat glands on the surface of the skin secrete large amounts of liquid, which when evaporated, help to cool the skin, which in turn cools the blood and ultimately the body.
The oxygen is not being efficiently used in the muscles…you can only take in a certain amount of oxygen and that can not be changed. Nitric oxide is released and allows vessels to dilate.
Normal EF – 55%, you need some left over in the ventricle so it does not close up Heart becomes more conditioned…can pump out just as much or more with less beats.
220-age….doesn’t work with cardiac patients b/c of meds Skeletal muscles will dictate how hard the heart is working…as they demand more oxygen (from the blood) they signal the heart to work harder
