SYSTEM INTERACTIONS
You have learned about each system in isolation. Now it’s time to see how they
work together and affect each other. The individual systems are complex…their
interactions are even more so. And we are not even including the endocrine
system…

Muscle contraction during exercise is responsible for producing changes, including biochemical ones (e.g.
decrease in pH due to H+ ions and/or an increase in organic phosphates etc, as well as changes to the
cardiovascular system, energy system (e.g. glycogen is depleted and blood glucose falls), and
thermoregulatory (body temperature rises).
Represented in the next diagram by the mitochondria at the muscle, the liver for energy supply, the
heart, and body temperature.
These changes DIRECTLY inhibit exercise, either by:
• Causing the muscle to lose its force generating ability. This is the theory for H+, phosphates, oxygen
supply (the “anaerobic” limit to exercise) and calcium ions; or
• By acting on the brain to force the muscle activation levels down. This is the case with high body
temperatures.

WHAT SYSTEM
IS NOT
MENTIONED…

RESPIRATORY
A “overload” of the
respiratory system will signal
a feedback loop to the brain.
The metaboreflex will kick in,
initiating vasoconstriction of
the circulation to the
locomotor muscles.
This will ensure the vital
organs receive the O2
required.

• CO2 and O2 concentrations are vital to the ability of O2 to off load at the muscle (Bohr)
and off load CO2 at the lung (Haldane)
• Hyperventilation leads to decreases in CO2 concentrations at the muscle (hypocapnia)
• This leads to an increased affinity of O2 to the haemoglobin
• This leads to a decreased ability to deliver O2 at the muscle
• Negatively effects performance

Exercise lowers blood pressure by reducing blood vessel stiffness so blood can flow
more easily. The effects of exercise are most noticeable during and immediately after
a workout. Lowered blood pressure can be most significant right after you work out.
In brief, from early ideas that the baroreflex was “shut off” during exercise, our
understanding has progressed to the realization that not only is baroreflex function
preserved during exercise, but also the operating point of the baroreflexes is actually
“reset” to higher operating pressures in proportion to work intensity, and there is
evidence that both central command and peripheral feedback from muscle can reset
the baroreflex
Much of the recent work on this topic has focused on the influence of steady-state
dynamic exercise on overall baroreflex control of arterial pressure.

• Anything affecting blood pressure OR neural control over blood pressure can effect performance
• Poor cardiovascular fitness can limit your hearts ability to increase SV
• Medications can effect HR and blood pressure
• Respiratory limitations (e.g. metaboreflex) can effect venous return and thereby interfere with this process
by effecting SV
• Hyperventilation can lead to decreased CO2 levels and thereby affect offloading of O2 at the cardiac
muscles
• A lack of mitochondria in the cardiac muscles can effect O2 utilization thereby effecting CO
• Decreased vascularity (capillaries) in the cardiac muscles can effect O2 delivery
