Quick questions on Acute responses and chronic adaptations to training: HSC Health and Movement Science Focus Area 2
4short Q&A pairs drawn directly from our worked dot-point answer. For full context and worked exam questions, read the parent dot-point page.
What is chronic adaptations (after weeks-to-months of training)?Show answer
The two headline cardiovascular adaptations move in opposite directions but for the same reason: a bigger, stronger heart ejects more blood per beat (stroke volume up), so it needs fewer beats per minute at rest (resting heart rate down).
What is q1?Show answer
Distinguish between an acute response and a chronic adaptation, with one cardiovascular example of each. [4 marks]
What is q2?Show answer
Analyse the chronic adaptations to aerobic training across cardiovascular, respiratory and muscular systems. [6 marks]
What is q3?Show answer
Justify why a strength-and-conditioning coach must plan aerobic and resistance training carefully to avoid the interference effect. [6 marks]
