What cardiovascular adaptations occur as a result of resistance training?
The cardiovascular adaptations that occur as a result of resistance training are, decreased heart rate, decreased blood pressure in both systolic and diastolic, decreased rate pressure product, increased stroke volume, increased cardiac output, and increased peak oxygen consumption. Five acute cardiovascular responses to resistance training are, an increased heart rate, change in stroke volume (subtle decrease in concentric and increase in eccentric), increased cardiac output, increased blood pressure (both systolic and diastolic), and increased intra thoracic pressure (highest when a Valsalva maneuver is performed). ↑Back to top Five misconceptions about women and resistance training are: Some of the misconceptions about women and resistance training are, strength training will make women big and bulky, a woman’s program should be less intense than a man’s, women can’t get strong, strength training is only for young women, and men are stronger than women. The truth is that strength tr
