Cardiovascular System
  1. Short term effetcs
    1. Heart rate increases
      1. Stroke Volume increases
        1. Cardiac output increases
          1. Blood vessels dilate
            1. Making skin red/cooling body
            2. Increased systolic blood pressure
              1. Blood shunted to working muscles
                1. Blood shunting
                  1. Rest-Blood flow to digestive system is greater
                    1. Exercise- Blood is shunted to the muscles
                      1. Blood Vessels...
                        1. Arteries
                          1. Veins
                            1. Capillaries
                      2. Long term effects
                        1. Stronger heart-Keeps going for longer
                          1. Increased maximum cardiac output
                            1. Increased stroke volume
                              1. Decreased resting heart rate
                                1. Faster recovery after exercise
                                  1. Healthy veins and arteries
                                    1. Increased VO2 Max
                                      1. More red blood cells
                                        1. Deliver oxygen quicker to muscles
                                        2. Less risk of coronary disease
