Exercise, Drugs and Lifestyle - Results Tables

To explore the impact of exercise on physical strength and cardiovascular response, two sets of results tables are used to record changes over time. The first table, titled "Does Exercise Make You Stronger?", tracks the number of push-ups a person can perform and the size of their bicep in centimetres over a period of seven weeks. This data collection begins at week 0, serving as a baseline measurement, and continues through to week 6, providing insights into the progression of muscular strength and growth as a result of consistent exercise.

The second table, "What is the Effect of Exercise on Breathing Rate?", measures the heart rate in beats per minute (bpm) at various intervals, from 0 to 10 minutes. This table captures the immediate cardiovascular response to exercise, revealing how the heart rate changes with time during physical activity. By monitoring the heart rate at one-minute intervals, the table offers a detailed view of how exercise influences breathing rate and heart function over a short duration. This information can be crucial in understanding the body's acute responses to exercise and the benefits of regular physical activity on cardiovascular health.
