Cardiovascular adaptations
Respiratory adaptations
Muscular adaptations
Metabolic adaptations
Increased myoglobin content
Increased glycogen storage
Increased plasma volume
Increased stroke volume
Minor increase in the proportion of slow-twitch muscle fibres
Decrease in insulin resistance
Cardiac hypertrophy
Lower resting heart rate
Increased tidal volume
Increased red blood cell content
Increase in haemoglobin
Increase in fat metabolism (intramuscular triglycerides; IMTG)
Increased size and density of mitochondria
Increased muscular endurance
Greater diffusion of carbon dioxide from the capillary to the alveoli for expiration from the body
increased strength of connective tissues, e.g. tendons and ligaments
Capillarisation
Greater minute ventilation capacity
Increased surface area of the alveoli, thus greater efficiency of gas exchange
Greater heart rate recovery
Increased venous return
Greater vascular shunt efficiency
Increased cardiac output
Increased ventilation rate
Increase Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR)
Increased end diastolic volume
