what does practice affect?
what does training affect?
practice vs training
Practice primarily affects memory, cognition, perception, and other central nervous system processes associated with problem solving.
Training primarily produces peripheral effects on the central nervous system and usually affects muscle, bone, soft tissue, and the cardiorespiratory system.
Definition of disposition

system that enables performers to achieve predetermined goals
consistently
definition of training and what it affects

performance in an athletic or other event
affect muscle, bone, cardiorespiratory system
physical performance capacity definition
aspects of physical activity developed through training
definition of conditioning

possession of adequate strength, endurance, and flexibility to carry out
desired tasks
Types of physical fitness
-motor performance fitness
-health-related fitness
Motor performance

Abilities
Offer potential but it isn’t enough for high levels of skill

what does this mean: Subjective Experience of physical activity
what do we take away from subjective experience?
how we feel, think, and react to physical activity
derived from physical activity
-emotions
-cognitions
