Essay / Eight Ways to Improve Touch Football Performance...
There are eight physiological adaptations that a Touch Football player would experience in response to training; these include a change in stroke volume, heart rate, cardiac output, oxygen consumption, lung capacity, hemoglobin levels, muscle hypertrophy and effect on fibers slow and fast twitch muscles. A touch football player would expect to feel the benefits of training. after ten weeks. The first of these many benefits includes a change in stroke volume. An athlete's stroke volume is the amount of blood that is pumped through their body in a single beat. In response to training, a touch football player's stroke volume will increase both at rest and during exercise. This increase is the result of the increased size of the heart, which is most visible in the increased thickness of the ventricular walls. This allows more blood to enter the heart during the diastolic beat and then more blood to be pushed out of the heart due to the more powerful contractions. In response to training, an affected football player would experience an increase in resting and resting stroke volume. during exercise. This increase in stroke volume allows a greater volume of blood to be pumped throughout the body in a single beat, further improving the player's future performance. Second, a touch football player's heart rate would adapt in response to training. The athlete's heart rate would decrease, both at rest and during exercise, as a direct result of increased stroke volume and improved efficiency of the cardiorespiratory system. For example, before the touch football player began training, his heart rate may have been around 75 bpm at rest and 90 bpm during exercise. After about ten weeks of regular training, the tactile foot...... middle of paper ......ymes as a result of aerobic training. As a result of anaerobic training, the touch football player would see different changes, such as: better ATP/PC intake, increased glycolytic enzymes, hypertrophy and higher tolerance to lactic acid. As a result of training, a touch football player would experience many adaptations regarding slow and fast twitch muscle fibers. The effect of this physiological adaptation is very positive and would greatly improve the performance of the athlete's future aerobic and anaerobic work. In total, there are many physiological adaptations that a touch football player would experience in response to training. These adaptations range from lung-related adaptations to muscle-related adaptations, and not only are they the result of regular training, but they improve the physical performance of the touch football player for the future.
