Effects of training on stroke volume


Stroke volume is termed the amount of blood that is pushed out of the ventricles of the heart with each beat.  A normal range of values at rest is between 60 and 130 ml per beat. These amounts can increase to between 150 and 180 ml per beat during exercise. These values refer only to the blood that is pumped out of the left ventricle. An equal amount of blood will simultaneously be pumped out of the right ventricle.
