[PDF] effect of exercise on pulse rate

When you are exercising, your muscles need extra oxygen—some three times as much as resting muscles. This need means that your heart starts pumping faster, which makes for a quicker pulse.

  • How does exercise affect pulse rate?

    As your exercise, your heart contracts faster and increases blood circulation, resulting in oxygenated blood, reaching the muscles more quickly.
    As the body moves, it requires more oxygen; hence the heart will have to meet the demand by pumping more blood, which increases the heart rate.

  • What happens to your pulse rate after exercise?

    After exercise, your heart rate returns to its normal or resting rate fairly quickly.
    Like other muscles, the heart gets more efficient at its work the more often you exercise, so your pulse rate will decrease the more ?t you get.

  • Can exercise help pulse rate?

    Exercise works like beta-blocker medication to slow the heart rate and lower blood pressure (at rest and also when exercising).
    High blood pressure is a major risk factor for heart disease.

  • Can exercise help pulse rate?

    The more the heart beats, the more breathing occurs.
    As the heart beats faster, it uses more energy and sends more oxygen to the body.
    If a person is exercising the oxygen is used very quickly in order to provide the muscles with needed energy to move.
    Thus the heart beats faster to pump more oxygen to the muscles.
