Need to Remember Flashcards

Q

Practice Distribution:

A

Distributed Practice: includes shorter but more frequent training sessions
- E.g. 4x 1hr sessions each week
- Greater number of rest breaks in a session
- Adopted by professional teams due to availability
- Better learning environment due to reduced fatigue
- Opportunity for feedback between tasks

Massed Practice: includes longer and less frequent training sessions
- E.g. 2x 2hr sessions each week
- Less number of rest breaks in a session
Adopted by non-professional teams to accommodate for lack of availabilities and different player commitments.

Q

Practice Variability:

A

Blocked Practice: includes practicing the same skill continuously in isolation from other skills
- E.g. Tennis - 50 forehand shots
- Good for learners in cognitive stage who are trying to reproduce the desired action
- Done in a closed environment where conditions are stable

Random Practice: practicing a varied sequence of different motor skills within a training session
- E.g. Tennis - forehand, backhand, volleys, forehand backhand, volley routine
- Appropriate for learners in associative and autonomous stages
Leads to greater retention of skills

Q

Types of Augmented Feedback:

A

Concurrent: occurs during the performance
- E.g. Coach telling triathlete their split times during the run phase

Terminal: occurs after the performance
- E.g. Coach telling a tennis player to toss the ball higher after a serve

Knowledge of Results: providing information about the outcome of performing the skill
- E.g. A gymnast being given a score of 7.6
- Good for beginners as it helps them identify intrinsically what occurs when successful outcomes occur

Knowledge of Performance: providing information about the process of performing the skill
- E.g. A coach instructing the golfer that they have a issue with weight transference during their swing
A more effective means of correcting faults and facilitating learning

Q

Momentum:

A

the amount of motion an object has and its resistance to changing that motion
- Momentum = Mass x Velocity (in kg m/s)

- An object not moving has zero momentum due to no velocity

- When two objects collide, they will move in the direction of the object with the greater momentum

- When two objects collide, there is a change in the momentum of each object and as the mass is staying the same, it means there is a change in the objects velocity

Q

Inertia:

A

the tendency for a body or object to resist change to its state of motion (whether the object is moving or at rest)
- An object will remain at rest or in constant motion until acted upon by an external force

- The greater the mass of an object, The greater the inertia, the greater the force needed to move it

Q

Summation of Momentum/Force Summation:

A

the sequential and coordinated movement of each body part segment to produce maximum velocity
- E.g. Throwing - momentum generated in lower body is transferred to the hips and trunk, then the shoulder and elbow, and finally to the wrist.

Principles of Force Summation:
- Use muscles that have the greatest inertia to begin with
- Recruit as many muscle groups as possible to generate more force
- Transfer momentum from one body part to the next when at maximum velocity
- Ensure a stable base to keep momentum
- Ensure there is an appropriate follow through to prevent unnecessary deceleration of body parts

Q

Newtons Laws of Angular Motion

A

First Law: the angular momentum of a body remains constant unless acted upon by an external torque

Second law: a torque applied to an object will produce a change in angular motion in the direction the torque is applied and directly proportional to the size of the torque and inversely proportional to the moment of inertia of the object

Third Law: For every torque, there is an equal and opposite torque

Q

Muscular Acute Responses to Exercise

A

Increased Motor Unit and Muscle Fibre recruitment

Increased Muscle Temperature: As exercise commences, there is an increase in the rate of metabolism to produce ATP aerobically, causing an increase in muscle temperature

Increased Muscular Oxygen Uptake: the volume of the oxygen used by muscles increases as exercise intensity increases

Increased Muscle Enzymatic Activity(glycolytic, ATPase, Oxidative Enzymes)

Decreased Fuel Stores

Increase in MBBP

17
Q

ATP-PC Fatiguing Systems

A

Accumulation of ADP: the build up of ADP which reduces muscular power
- Occurs during exercise of extended duration

Accumulation of Pi: increased build up of inorganic phosphates leading to impaired myofibrillar contractions, decreasing muscular force production.

Depletion of PC stores: Occurs when all PC stores have broken down to resynthesise ATP explosively, resulting in a reduction in force and speed of contractions as ATP resynthesis must come from the breakdown of glucose now

18
Q

Anaerobic Glycolysis Fatiguing Systems

A

Accumulation of H+ : the build up of H+ within the working muscles leading to an increase in acidity levels in the muscle cells(lower pH) which inhibits the glycolytic enzymes catalysing the breakdown of glycogen meaning energy for ATP resynthesis is produced at a slower rate therefore muscular contractions slow down

19
Q

Aerobic Fatiguing Systems

A

Thermoregulatory Fatigue: fatigue occurring when exercising for prolonged periods of time or in extreme conditions of high heat and humidity, leading to the body’s core temperature rising and in an attempt to cool it down(via evaporation), it increases the rate of dehydration

Fatiguing Factors as a result of increased core body temperature:
- Decreased plasma levels(dehydration): a fatiguing factor where the more fluid loss per body weight, the more adverse affects it has on the body

- Electrolyte imbalance: not having adequate levels of sodium, potassium or calcium in the body leading to impairments in hydration, nerve impulses, muscle functions and pH levels

- Nervous fatigue: fatigue that is detected by the brain, therefore sending weaker neural signals to the working muscles, impacting negatively on performance as it reduces the force and speeds of contractions
