Q

what happens if X activity analysis

A
  • not know spec requirements of the game - training program will not be as specific - waste times on unimportant MG, ES, FC - X improve as much as they could

Q

direct obs evaluate

A

+ immediate feedback - quicker impact on performance and easier to organise (die to decrease in equiptment)

  • not as accurate - can be subjective and need expertise

25
passes / hits SFT - MG??
deltoid , biceps , triceps etc.
26
balance / dodges
abs / core strength
27
similarities with muscular strength/ power/endurance
-all require a max force - closely linked to anaerobic path -greater the strength greater the power and endurance
28
difference between muscular E, P , S
strength - one effort --> 1:5 power - quick -->1:5 endurance - repeated --> 1:3
29
muscular strength
peak force a muscle can produce eg. 1RM bench press ATP -CP
30
fitness tests muscular strength
7 stange abdominal strength test 1RM stest push pull / grip dynamometer
31
factors affect strength muscular
- age - peak at 30 increased mm -sex - increased testosterone - muscle fibre type - greater % fast twitch - muscle size - increase force generated/ mf recruited - type of contraction - isometric = greatest force without movement ...............
32
muscular endurance
ability of a muscle or group of muscles to sustain repeated contractions against a resistance for an extended period of time
33
muscular endurance examples
paddling canaoe, cycling ,400m freestyle
34
fitness test muscular endurance
60 sec push up test 30 sec crunch / situp test pull up / bar hold
35
factors affecting muscular endurance
-sex= males increased aerobic capacity and musc strength - larger muscles and VO2 -muscle FT = increase % slow twitch - higher intensities aerobically and contract repeatedly - LA tolerance = greater LA tolerance - increase anaerobic capacity - more by products tolerated - longer high intensity efforts
36
aerobic power
max rate of energy produced in the presence of O2
37
fitness tests aerobic POWER
Vo2 max Yoyo test 20m shuttle run test Coopers 12 minute run
38
factors affecting aerobic power
- age = peaks at mid 20s - increased elacticity of the lungs , increase VO2 max , increase haemoglobin and mitochondria (increased muscle mass) - sex= males larger lungs and O2 / larger muscle mass and mitochondria - MFT = slow twitch = use more O2 bc increase mit. and myoglobin - increase aerobic
39
increased mitochondria links with what ?
increased muscle mass
40
anaerobic capacity
total amount of energy obtainable fro, anaerobic energy systems eg sprints , repeated efforts
41
0 -5 m sprints is what fitness component
muscular power
42
anaerobic capacity tests
Repco peak power test 30 second wingate test phosphate recovery test
43
factors affecting anaerobic capacity
- age - peaks at 30 - decreases due to decrease muscle mass and protein synthesis - sex = males have increased muscle mass and places to store CP and anaerobic enzymes - increased anaerobic ability - MFT - % fast - LA tolerance
44
muscular power
the ability of muscle or a muscle group to exert a mix force in shortest period of time eg. jump / pass
45
fitness test muscular power
- vertical jump test - basketball throw -margaria kalamen stair sprint
46
factors affecting muscular power
-age = peak 30 - protein / muscle mass - sex = increase testosterone / mm -MFT= % of fast twitch - muscle length = muscle prestretched - increase length - eccentric then concentric contract with greater power
47
speed - anaerobic
ability to move from one point to the other in the shortest possible time eg sprints >5 m
48
fitness tests speed
20m/35m/50m sprint
49
speed factord affecting
- age = 30 peak - sex = men increase muscle mass and testosterone - increase mit and 02 to muscle - MFT = fast twitch - generate greater force - flexibility - greater stride length greater speed - get further each sprint - reaction time
50
agility
ability to change direction quickly without losing balance eg. dodges , boxing
51
factors affecting
-MFT= % fast -RT = quicker rt - quicker speed + ag. -sex = increase t and muscle mass - generate greater force and speeds - age - peak at 30 - protein and mm
52
fitness tests agility
semo , illinois and 505
53
flexibility
the range of movement possible around a joint
54
types of flexibility
- static - stationary - dynamic - whilst moving -ballistic - dynamic while moving /bouncing - PNF - hold isometric against resistance
55
fitness tests flexibility
- sit and reach test - trunk flexion and rotation - shoulder and wrist elevation
56
factors affecting flexibility
- sex - females better bc oestrogen - greater joint laxity and less muscle mass - age - flex decrease as age increases bc inactivity and decrease lubrication -> pain and aches in their joints - warm up - joint structure eg ball and socket joint - injury - increase scar tissue inhibit flex. - resting muscle length
57
body comp
ratio of fat to non fat components (muscle/bones) of the body
58
types of bodys
-ectomorph- low fat and non fat - skinny -mesomorph - low fat and high non fat - muscly -endomorph - high fat and low non fat - spongy
59
av body comp
males - 15-20% body fat females- 25% body fat
60
test for body comp
skinfold caliper BMI chart weight circumfrence
61
factors affecting body comp.
-age - increase chance of endomorph as age increases as dec. metabolism - sex - females - more likely to be endomorphbc increase body fat% and hard to build muscle - genetics diet and physical health - pos energy balance more eat than burnt - increase endomorph
62
coordination
ability to execute a sequence of movements smoothly and accurately
63
factors affecting coordination
- poor eyesight and hearing - stage of development
64
balance
ability to maintain body in equilibrium
65
reaction time
time bw stimulus and initiation of muscular response
66
factors affecting rt
- age = fastest bw 19 - 30 - gender - men> -intensity of cue - no. of choices - probability of cue / warning sign - eg get set and go
67
purpose of health screening
increase safety for all
68
PAR -Q - health screening
- identify health risks or underlying health conditions for athlete - tests suitability for the fitness tests and type of test
69
informed consent
- inform participants about aims /purpose, benefits and risks, confidentiality - this will minimise risks of injury , assure social confidentiality, mentally - motivation
70
pre fitness testing
- determine strengths and weaknesses - benchmarks - motivation
71
during fitness testing
evaluate effectiveness motivation
72
post fitness testing
evaluate effectiveness motivation
73
difference with fitness test and activity analysis
AA= physical requirements - identifies what are relevant hw FT = tests the fitness components / athletes strengths etc
74
physiological
- replicates requirements of the sport - capability to perform the test - consider health
75
type of fitness testing
lab and field
76
lab vs field
lab = expensive , most accurate, elite field = inexpensive , readily available , class ,estimate/ not very accurate
77
lab is
direct
78
field is
indirect
79
direct vs indirect
direct value vs based on predictive/ estimate measures
80
rules / protocols
accurate , reliable ,precise
81
accurate
rules and guidlines are strictly followed
82
reliable
replicated to produce constant set of results - same conditions
83
valid
recognised method to measure FC
84
selecting tests ORDER
least fatiguing to most alternate body parts sufficient recovery
85
when would harvard fitness test be used
to test aerobic power for those with low levels of fitness / aerobic power
86
fast twitch means.......
the muscle size is larger + greater force produced
