Oxygen uptake quickly increases when dynamic exercise is begun or increased. Vagal reactivation is an important cardiac deceleration mechanism after exercise it is accelerated in well-trained athletes but may be blunted in deconditioned and/or “medically ill” patients. In the postexercise phase, hemodynamics return to baseline within minutes of termination. Cardiac output can increase as much as 4- to 6-fold above basal levels during strenuous exertion in the upright position, depending on genetic endowment and level of training. In normal subjects, this is not a limiting determinant of peak exercise capacity. The pulmonary vascular bed can accommodate as much as a 6-fold increase in cardiac output without a significant increase in pulmonary artery pressure.

Diastolic blood pressure may remain unchanged or decrease to a minimal degree. As exercise progresses, skeletal muscle blood flow is increased, oxygen extraction increases as much as 3-fold, total calculated peripheral resistance decreases, and systolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, and pulse pressure usually increase. During strenuous exertion, sympathetic discharge is maximal and parasympathetic stimulation is withdrawn, resulting in vasoconstriction in most circulatory body systems, except for that in exercising muscle and in the cerebral and coronary circulations. At fixed submaximal workloads below ventilatory threshold in healthy persons, steady-state conditions are usually reached within minutes after the onset of exercise after this occurs, heart rate, cardiac output, blood pressure, and pulmonary ventilation are maintained at reasonably constant levels. In the early phases of exercise in the upright position, cardiac output is increased by an augmentation in stroke volume mediated through the use of the Frank-Starling mechanism and heart rate the increase in cardiac output in the latter phases of exercise is primarily due to an increase in heart rate.
