06f. Training Session Flashcards
What are 3 reasons why we do a warm up
Prepares body both physiologically and psychologically for conditioning phase of session. Increased blood flow to muscles therefore decreased deficit and increase in muscle temperature therefore increased flexibility. Improves range of motion of the joints and muscles to decrease the risk of injury.
what order activities should be done in during the conditioning phase of training.
Lowest fatiguing to highest fatiguing eg CP oriented activities first then Aerobic and Anaerobic glycolysis
What are 3 reasons why we do an active recovery
Prevents venous pooling and therefore DOMS. Therefore athletes can resume training/train harder earlier. Allows for gradual recovery of heart rate and blood pressure. Increases flexibility
Describe how to do an active recovery.
Do the same activity at a lower intensity. Include an aerobic component and static and PNF stretching.
Lisst 3 reasons why a coach would want to record and monitoring training data
Compare the aims of the training program with what is actually being achieved, Identify signs of overtraining or a need for progression,Provide information that allows for modifications to be made in order to increase specificity of program and chance of success.
List an example of the types of data training diaries can record.
Physiological: eg Heart rate. Psychological: Eg motivation. Sociological: Eg who you trained with
Outline PNF stretching
PNF: Involves stretching a muscle while contracting against a resistance (partner, band, wall etc).
Outline static stretching
Static: taking muscle to greatest range and holding for 30sec.
Outline dynamic stretching
Dynamic Stretching: stretching while moving.
Outline Ballistic stretching
Ballistic stretching: “bouncing” as you strecth trying to get further each movement
Describe and give 2 examples of physiological data you could record
Provides information about the bodies physical functioning in response to training. Eg Heart rate, muscle soreness, sleeping patterns
Describe and give 2 examples of psychological data you could record
Provides the athlete with an understanding of their mental readiness and mental capacity to train and perform. Eg Motivation levels, arousal levels, stress levels, confidence levels.
Describe and give 2 examples of sociological data you could record
Provides context about the broader social, cultural and environmental factors that contribute to an athletes performance. Who you trained with, temperature and weather conditions during the session, time of day, venue you trained at etc.
What type of data is muscle soreness
Physiological
What type of data is sleep quality
Psychological
