06a. Activity analysis Flashcards
What is the purpose of activity analysis?
To determine the important physiological requirements (energy systems, fitness components and muscle groups) of an activity to increase specificity of training program
When should activity analysis be completed when creating a training program?
First step - before any others
What information can be gained from W:R?
energy systems
What information can be gained from movement patterns?
fitness components and energy systems
What information can be gained from a skill frequency table?
fitness components
Which method of activity analysis has high accuracy but lower practicality?
video recording
Which method of activity analysis has low accuracy but higher practicality?
direct observation
What energy system would be associated with 1:4
anaerobic glycolysis
What energy system would be associated with 4:1
aerobic energy system
What energy system would be associated with 1:9
ATP-CP
What W:R ratio is associated with ATP-CP system?
1:5+ (rest significantly higher than work)
What W:R ratio is associated with anaerobic glycolysis system?
1:2-1:4
What W:R ratio is associated with aerobic system?
1:1 or 2:1 (work equal to or greater than rest)
Data that shows a large number of changes of direction would support which fitness component?
Agility
Data that shows a large number amount of time within the aerobic training zone would support which fitness component?
aerobic power
Data that shows a large number of efforts above 85%MHR with limited/insufficient recovery would support which fitness component?
anaerobic capacity
Data that shows a large number of leaps would support which fitness component?
Muscular power
Flexibility also a possibility depending on sport/action
Data that shows a large number of lunges would support which fitness component?
Flexbility
Data that shows a large amount of time holding a position would support which fitness component?
Muscular strength
What type of activity analysis is best used to determine most important muscle groups?
Skill frequency table
eg. increased number of passes = upper body power = deltiod, biceps
What is an advantage of direct observation?
increased practicality due to increased accessibility (no much equipment required)
What is a disadvantage of direct observation?
decreased accuracy (things can be missed, subjective)
What is an advantage of video recording?
increased accuracy (can be rewatched/slowed down)
What is a disadvantage of video recording?
decreased practicality due to decreased accessibility (need equipment)
