Before endurance training program, a 20-year-old college male had a resting cardiac output of 5.0 L/min, a resting heart rate of 60 beats/min, and a resting stroke volume of 83 mL/beat. After 16 weeks of endurance training, his resting heart rate was now 50 beats/min, so his resting cardiac output would be equal to 42 L/min (equal to cardiac output divided by stroke volume). During interval training, the rest interval should be long enough to allow the heart rate to reach a level of 160 min, 100 min, or 150 min, depending on what feels good. For a young athlete observed to have a low capacity in ATP-PC energy output, the best training program to improve this energy system would be to run hard, 6x100 yards, with 60 sec recovery each day. In organizing a training program for a competitive dancer (ballet or contemporary step), it would be recommended to include weight training, sport-specific training, and continuous training. To train the anaerobic glycolysis system, the best option would be to run 10 sprints of 100 meters each at maximal speed.
13. The volume of oxygen consumed (in liters per minute) while a person is at rest and while a person is exercising (running on a treadmill) were both measured for 50 subjects. The goal is to determine if the volume of oxygen consumed during aerobic exercise can be estimated from the amount consumed at rest. The results are plotted below. If the outlier is removed, the correlation coefficient r will: A) increase. B) decrease. C) neither increase nor decrease. D) There is not enough information to determine the effect on r.
