to exercise training to maximum human physical
Define exercise physiology potential.
It includes the interaction of the heart, lungs, and
muscles, and how they respond to exercise.
Optimal fitness refers to the best functioning level of
Define optimal fitness fitness a Marine can attain. At the optimal level, the body
of the Marine functions as efficiently as it can.
Which factor measures a Optimal fitness can be measured by accomplishing

the heart and pumped to
the body by the (blank) side
of the heart.
(1) The size of the heart increases making it able to pump
more blood with more force.
(2) The amount of blood the heart pumps with each
contraction increases. This is due to a combination of an
increase in the heart size and a decrease in pulse that
allows more blood to enter the heart between beats.
