Exercise
A subcategory of physical activity that is planned, structured, repetitive, and purposeful, aimed at improving or maintaining components of physical fitness.
Example: Running regularly to enhance cardiovascular health.
Physical Activity
Any bodily movement produced by skeletal muscles that requires energy expenditure. It includes all movements, not necessarily structured or planned.
Example: Walking to class or doing household chores.
Exercise Physiology
The branch of biological sciences focused on understanding how the body responds and adapts to physical activity and exercise at molecular, cellular, system, and whole-body levels.
Example: Studying how muscle oxygen consumption increases during exercise.
Acute Response
The immediate physiological changes that occur during and shortly after exercise, such as increased heart rate or ventilation.
Example: Elevated breathing rate during a sprint.
