why do we need a balanced diet?
different types of foods provide suitable nutrients, vitamins and mineral
for energy, growth and hydration
to perform daily tasks
prevent diseases and illnesses
skill vs ability
skill is learnt, needed hard work
ability is inherited potential
classifications of skills
basic/complex
externally paced/self paced
gross/fine
open/closed
types of goals
performance goals: no social comparison, only personal performance
outcome goals: with social comparison, a bigger picture aim of the result
SMART goals
specific: to the sport, movements or muscles used
measurable: can be seen when complete
accepted: eg by coach
realistic: achievable to their availability level
time-bound: cove a certain period of time to monitor progress regularly
four stages of information processing
input
decision making from working memory
output
feedback (pos/neg, ex/intrinsic)
types of feedback
intrinsic- performer giving themselves feelings and comments
extrinsic- information and opinions of others
knowledge of result/performance
positive/negative
four types of guidance
verbal
visual
manual
mechanic
verbal guidance
pros & cons
to give instructions with sayings
pros: Useful for higher-level performers,
Good for highlighting key points, Quick and easy
cons: info overload, boring, complex things hard to explain
manual guidance
where the coach physically assists the learner
pros: good to learn the correct feel, for complete beginners
cons: feels not doing it themselves
visual guidance
learning through demonstration
pros: can be copied easily, know to see specific requirements and be observed, all levels, can be online/ photos , no need to be in person
cons: need concentration, demonstrator must be of good quality, some may not be accessible to demonstrate eg swimming

role of fats in a balanced diet
To provide energy (at low intensities) (1)
• To help insulate the body (1)
• To protect vital organs (1)
• To support cell growth (1)
Explain why a games player requires carbohydrates and protein in their diet. 4 marker
Carbohydrates (sub-max 2 marks)
• During a game carbohydrates would be the preferred energy source enabling them to perform for
the whole game (1)
• Carbohydrates provide energy when working at different intensities which is a key component of
most games (1)
Protein (sub-max 2 marks)
• Protein can help develop muscular strength which will allow the player to potentially jump higher/
change direction quicker (1)
• After training/competing protein can help repair muscle tissue which means the player will be
ready to perform again (1)

Define an open skill
A skill which is performed in a certain way to deal with a changing or unstable environment
Outline the difference between self-paced and externally paced skills
AO1
Self-paced – started when the performer decides to start it / the speed, rate or pace of the skill is
controlled by the performer (1)
Externally paced – started because of an external factor / the speed, rate or pace of the skill is
controlled by external factors (1)
AO2
Self-paced – javelin throw / conversion in rugby / marathon running (1)
Externally paced – sprint start / when you respond to your opponents movement whilst marking (1)
Give an example of a complex skill. 4 marks
AO2 (sub-max 1 mark)
Performing a high jump (1)
AO3 (sub-max 3 marks)
Requires coordinated running in an accurate bend (1)
Correctly timed jump in relation to the bar/bed (1)
Effective body position to clear the bar (1)
Gender is a factor that affects the recommended calorie intake per day for an
individual.
Describe two other factors that affect calorie intake.
Age (sub-max 2 marks)
Age (1)
Under the age of 25 people need more calories (1)
When you get old your body replaces muscle with fat and fat burns fewer calories (1)
Height (sub-max 2 marks)
Height (1)
You need to consume more calories the taller you are (1)
Taller people have larger skeletons (1)
Energy expenditure (sub-max 2 marks)
Energy expenditure (1)
The more exercise you do the more calories you will need (1)
As you need more energy to carry out the exercise (1)
Define dehydration.
Excessive loss of body water interrupting the normal function of the body
Outcome goals
Concerned with overall result and winning, having comparison to others
Intrinsic and extrinsic motivations
Intrinsic – the drive that comes from within (eg for pride, satisfaction, a sense of accomplishment, self-worth) (1)
• Extrinsic – the drive to perform well or to win in order to gain external rewards (eg prizes, money, praise) (1)
Eg… running a pb in a marathon ; winning a medal
consequences of dehydration
- blood thickens (increased viscosity > slows blood flow)
- HR increase
- muscle cramps(lactic acid buildup)
- temp increase
- reaction time decrease
percentages of nutrition
carbs 55-60 %
fats 25-35 %
protein 15-20 %
vitamins, fibre, minerals, hydration in the mix
aggression
deliberate intent to harm another person
- direct: physical contact involved
- indirect: taken out on object
information processing
input (5 senses)
decision making (long + short term memory)
output (muscle movement)
feedback (intrinsic + ex)
personalities
extrovert - team sport, sociable, outgoing talkative - football rugby
introvert - shy quiet reserved - badminton, running
motivation
intrinsic: drive from within (pride, satisfaction, self-worth)
extrinsic: external rewards or result
PEDs definition
Performance enhancing drugs - substances that change chemical balance of body when taken and affecting performer’s ability, causing unfair advantage
types of PEDs
BADS PNB
Beta blockers
Anabolic steroids
Diuretics
Stimulants
Peptide hormones
Narcotic analgesics
Blood doping
Beta blockers
Prevent adrenelin to keep heart rate low, reduce muscle tension, anxiety and depression
eg divers, snooker players, fine motor skills
Anabolic steroids
increases muscles rate of recovery, increasing power and strength, can train harder for longer
since muscles gain faster
weight lifters, rugby player, cyclists (endurance sports)
high blood pressure, heart disease, imbalanced hormores
Diuretics
Remove excess water from body to lose weight rapidly.
mask use of other PEDs
jockeys, gymnasts

strokes, addiction, increased risk of injury (pain suppressing)
disads of PEDs
health risk
damaged reputation
loss of sponsorships/contracts
financial penalty
disqualifications or bans
teammates affected
reasons for PEDs use
achieve success, rewards, sponsorships
enhance performance
Level to playing field
influence by others
quick recovery or mask pain
WADA
world anti-doping agency
tests on athletes and education
procedures and manage tests
Define performance goals
Personal standards set to be achieved without comparison with other performers
Concerned with improve oneself’s skills and techniques and mastery
Define outcome goals
Judging the end result by comparing with other performers
What is blood doping? For who?
To increase performer’s RBC count
- removal of blood weeks before competition, and inject before competition
Mostly for endurance athletes, so more oxygen can be carried to muscles for energy
Side effects from blood doping
- thicken blood viscosity
- heart attack risk increase
- risk of blood-borne diseases eg HIV
- blockage of blood vessel
Side effects of diuretics?
Dehydration
Low blood pressure
Muscle cramp
Side effects of beta blockers?
Poor circulation leading to heart problems,
tiredness
weakness
Nausea
What are peptide hormones? Who for?
Improve muscle growth, production of RBCs to increase oxygen supply to muscles, hence reduces fatigue
Endurance athletes, long distance events
Risks of peptide hormones (EPO)?
Blood thickening -> Increased risk of heart attack/strokes
What are narcotic analgesics?
Strong painkillers to mask pain from injury or overtraining
Side effects of narcotic analgesics ?
Low blood pressure
Constipation
Loss of concentration and possible coma
Basic vs complex skills
Basic requires minimal decision making, learnt fairly quickly
As opposed to a lot of decisions needed and master with expertise and experience, time
Open vs closed skill + examples
Open: unstable, externally paced, affected by environment
Eg football pass, rugby tackle
Closed: opposite, repeatable every time
Eg javelin throw, somersault in gymnastics.
Self paced vs externally paced skills + examples
Self: start of movement controlled by performer
Eg long distance running, long jump
External: start of movement controlled by external factors
Eg returning badminton after opponent serves ; 100m sprint after starting pistol
Gross vs fine skills + example
Gross: involves large muscle groups, parts of body, not focused on precision
Eg rowing, running,
Fine: involves small precise movements, small muscle groups
Eg snooker, darts, archery
ways to control arousal levels
deep breathing
mental rehearsal, visualisation
