Methods Of Training. Flashcards
Aerobic training- what does it involve?
Uses the whole body for a long period of time but of moderate intensity.
Muscles get oxygen as they need it.
What are the benefits of aerobic training?
Heart becomes stronger and more efficient. Recovery rate is reduced. Levels of haemoglobin increases. Diagram gets stronger. More alveoli for gas exchange.
Anaerobic training- what does it involve?
Short but high intensity bursts.
Oxygen is not supplied to all the muscles quick enough so produces lactic acid.
Benefits of anaerobic respiration.
Stronger muscles.
Increase power, speed ect.
Continuous training.
Moderate intensity for a long period of time.
Pulse between 60-80% constantly of max heart rate.
Respire aerobically and keeps pulse high.
3 sports that can be used for continuous training.
Cycling, jogging and swimming.
Advantages of continuous training.
Not much equipment needed.
Training levels easily controlled.
Easy to organise.
Disadvantages of continuous training.
Doesn’t develop anaerobic respiration.
Doesn’t change the pace like most sport needs.
Can be difficult to measure training amounts.
Can be boring.
Circuit training.
A series of excercises completed for a certain amount of time one after the other.
Can be linked to any sport depending on what the stations focus on.
Never have the same body part station next to each other, time do recovery.
Advantages of circuit training.
Can develop many different components of fitness.
Different activities up motivation levels.
Need little specialist equipment.
Large number of people in a small area.
Can train both anaerobic and aerobic systems.
Disadvantages of circuit training.
Needs organising and planning.
Some equipment can be expensive if not basic stations.
Weight training.
Increase the strengths of muscles using a programme or reps and sets.
Can use machine or free weights.
Weight training- muscular strength or power.
Heavy weights with few repetitions.
Weight training- muscular endurance.
Lighter weights with more repetitions.
Repetitions
How many times you lift the weight.
Sets
How many times you carry out each excersise.
Advantages of weight training.
Can target specific muscles groups.
Can be adapted for most sports.
Quickly increase muscle strength and endurance.
Disadvantages of weight training.
Need specialist equipment- can be expensive.
Need suitable location.
Must be planned carefully.
Interval training.
Period of work followed by periods of rest.
