Cardiovascular response to exercise
The Heart
Outline
• General cardiac responses to exercise– Control of heart rate– Control of stroke volume– Blood pressure– Distribution of blood flow– Barroreceptors
• Adaptations to training• Impact of the environment
Examples of work (METS)
• Rest 1• Cycling <10 mph 6• Cycling >20 mph 16• Running (10 min/mile) 10• Running (6 min/mile) 16

Why is blood pressure going up? I thought we had sensors that control blood pressure.
Arterial Baroreceptors
Cardiovascular Physiology. Berne and Levy 1972
Activation of Barroreceptor reflex
Response to an increase in arterial pressure• Withdrawal of sympathetic tone• Activation of parasympathetic tone• Results:
– Decrease heart rate and contractility– Arterial vasodilation– Increase in venous compliance
Afferent nerve firing responds to absolute pressure and rate of change in pressure

Schematic illustration of the effect of exercise on arterial baroreflex control of heart rate. Exercise resets the relationship between arterial pressure and heart rate upward and to the right (OP = hypothetical arterial baroreflex operating point).
Oxygen Demand

vO2 content=15 ml O2/100 ml blood
CO=5 L/min
Meeting oxygen needs during exercise
Fick equation VO2 = Q (CaO2 – CvO2)
VO2 = [HR SV] (CaO2 – CvO2)
VO2 = [BP TPR] (CaO2 – CvO2)

The heart is under net vagal tone
Epinephrine
• Source: Adrenal medulla
• Increase heart rate and contractility (1),
• low concentrations vasodilation (2)
• high concentrations vasoconstriction (1), decrease
venous compliance (1)
Norepinephrine
• Source: Adrenal medulla
• Increase heart rate and contractility (1),
• Limited effect on 2
• At all concentrations vasoconstriction (1), decrease
venous compliance (1)
Determinants of Cardiac Output
• Heart rate• Stroke volume
– Ventricular end-diastolic volume– Contractility– Afterload (aortic pressure)
Venus Blood Return to Heart
• muscle pump• one-way venous valves • breathing
Return of blood to heart
Increase Preload
Increase Afterload
Increase Contractility
Stroke volume
• End diastolic volume– End-diastolic volume (Starling’s Law)
• End systolic volume– Afterload– Contractility
Time between beats

What would happen if you could not increase adrenergic tone to the heart during exercise?

Adaptations to Training
Resting bradycardia• Increased stroke volume• Increased cardiac size and compliance
Increased blood volume• Lower vascular resistance at any work load• Improved flow distribution• Improved oxygen extraction• Improved heat tolerance
Training Heart Rates
• Low range– Between 60-70% of maximal heart rate– ~50-60% of VO2 max
• High range– 90% of max heart rate– 85-90% of VO2max
