| Increased bone strength and thickness - this is due to exercise stimulating the mineral content of calcium within the bones. Preventing bone weakness or injuries. | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Skeletal System |
| Hypertrophy occurs due to increased muscle fibre Recruitment – increasing muscle strength – muscles get bigger and stronger. | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Muscular System |
| A reduction in the resting heart rate due to the heart not having to work as hard. | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Cardiovascular System |
| More efficient exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen - exercise increases the capillarization around the alveoli thus allowing for more oxygen to enter and carbon dioxide to leave. | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Respiratory System |
| Increase in contraction rates resulting in quicker reaction times – increase in muscle speed | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Muscular System |
| Improved endurance capacity of respiratory muscles - more oxygen getting to the diaphragm and intercostal muscles which means it can work for longer. | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Respiratory System |
| Reduction in resting heart rate: due to the heart becoming stronger and stroke volume increasing the heart doesn't need to beat as often thus reducing the rate | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Cardiovascular System |
| Increase in bone mineral content increases – calcium increase allowing the bones to get stronger and less likely to get fractures. | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Skeletal System |
| Helps to eliminate or ease back problems due to muscles being stronger | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Muscular System |
| Increased cardiac output - this is due to exercise causing the left ventricle to become thicker and stronger allowing more blood to be passed around the body. | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Cardiovascular System |
| Increased efficiency regarding transportation/redistribution of blood - endurance athletes have more capillaries allowing more blood to transfer through them. Causing athletes to recover quickly after exercise. | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Cardiovascular System |
| Improve posture due to core muscles being stronger. | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Muscular System |
| Strengthened breathing muscles: when exercising our lungs are working harder. This continuous use causes the lungs to strengthen. More muscle fibres are recruited and more oxygen is getting to the muscles. | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Respiratory System |
| Improved lactate processing - Due to better supply of oxygen to the working muscles. | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Muscular System |
| Increase in range of motion at joints and reduce joint problem | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Skeletal System |
| Improves muscle flexibility - With the process of damaging and repairing the muscles, elasticity of the muscles can be increased through stretch training such as yoga. | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Muscular System |
| Reduce the rate of age related bone loss – osteoporosis due to the increase of calcium | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Skeletal System |
| Improved muscular endurance - Improved slow twitch fibre response. Increased O2 supply means more efficient use of slow twitch fibres. Due to better supply of oxygen to the working muscles. | Long Term Effects of Exercise on the Muscular System |
