Q

What is the difference between lab testing and field testing?

A

Lab testing is done in a lab/advanced facility, generally done for individual testing, whereas field testing is completed in a field environment, such as a sports field/court, and can test multiple athletes at once.

Q

What is the difference between maximal and submaximal testing?

A

A max test is completed as close as possible to exhaustion whereas submax tests are performed at lower intensities.

32
Q

What is the difference between direct testing and indirect testing?

A

A fitness battery test refers to several fitness tests being performed to assess various fitness components to create a fitness profile.

46
Q

What is the aim of an activity analysis?

A

An activity analysis aims to create a reliable record of performance by analysing observations with the aim of making changes to improve performance.

Introduction for written breakdown

A

Within the following activity analysis, there will be a discussion of the major fitness components, energy systems, and major muscle groups used by an athlete in a sport match. The methods for data collection are this, and they record this. The data analysis will allow for the major fitness component strengths and weakness to be identified and establish a baseline for the player, so they know what fitness tests would be appropriate to undertake to improve their performance.

70
Q

A

4 key fitness components used (data)
Muscle groups used in those fitness components
Definitions of the fitness components
Why a player would want to improve the fitness component in relation to the sport
