Heart rate goes up, you’re breathing a lot, let’s find out why that is.
β €
πŸ“Leg muscles are generally bigger than upper body muscles
This means that there will be more blood having to travel to those larger muscles in greater volumes.
β €
πŸ“Oxygen travels in blood farther away from heart increasing the heart rate and stroke volume (amount of blood pumped out by heart in one contraction)
The working muscles of the legs are requiring oxygen because oxygen is being used up to a greater degree.
β €
πŸ“Respiratory Pump
Your blood doesn’t just simply travel back up to the heart super easily. You have mechanisms in your body that help transport that blood back to the heart and replenish your oxygen quicker. Your diaphragm muscle helps actually squeeze that blood upward back to the heart. This causes you to breath more frequently and also take deeper breaths. Along with getting more blood back to the heart, this blood also travel to the lungs to pick up more oxygen and get rid of the carbon dioxide that was picked up from the muscles. This means you will need to breath more to get rid of the CO2 and get more O2 into your body.
β €
πŸ“In comparison to your upper body workouts, the oxygen demand during your upper body workout isn’t as great because muscles are generally smaller and O2 in the blood doesn’t have to travel too far from the heart. Blood is more easily able to replenish its oxygen without having to increase heart rate and stroke volume as much.
β €
Hope this gave you some insight on how your body reacts when exercising.
