Practical Session Info Flashcards
Who comes under the athlete support team?
Head coach
S+C coach Technical coaches Sports Physiologist Sports Psychologist Sports Physiotherapist Nutritionist
What 3 aspects come under evaluation of the sport?
Movement analysis
Physiological analysis
Injury analysis
Under the athlete profile comes training status + training background
What comes under each of these?
Training Status = Injures + exercise technique skill level
Training background = Training age + recent training history
Define motor control
Integration of sensory info (internal + external) + prior experience for the prod of a motor response.
Define motor learning
Motor control processes associated with learning + experience resulting in a rel stable change to the ability to produce skilled movements.
Define motor development
Changes to motor behaviour over ind lifetime
What is the goal of coaching cues?
Motor outcome by guiding movements in a more efficient manner
What is the constrained action hypothesis
Ind who try to consciously control they movements tend to constrain their motor system + interfere w/ automatic control processes.
Whereas focusing on the movements effect allows for more automatic mode of control. - Promoting utilisation of unconscious, fast + reflexive control processes with the result that the desired outcome is achieved almost as a by-product.
What are the types of monitoring considerations?
Those for external load + those for internal load
MONITORING CONSIDERATIONS
Athletes response to training
What can come under external load?
Duration
Tonnage
Speed
Distance covered
MONITORING CONSIDERATIONS
Athletes response to training
What categories can come under internal load?
Perceptual response i.e RPE, general well-being
Physiological response i.e HR variability
Physical performance test i.e CMJ
Define mobility
Ability to produce a desired movement
Define stability
Ability to resist an undesired movement
JOINT BY JOINT CONSIDERATIONS
KEY ATTRIBUTE - MOBILITY OR STABILITY?
Joint = Ankle
Mobility
JOINT BY JOINT CONSIDERATIONS
KEY ATTRIBUTE - MOBILITY OR STABILITY?
Joint = Knee
Stability
JOINT BY JOINT CONSIDERATIONS
KEY ATTRIBUTE - MOBILITY OR STABILITY?
Joint = Hips
Mobility
What are the general guidelines for prior to training/competition?
Self myofascial release
Dynamic stretching
What are the general guidelines for post competition?
Self myofascial release
Static stretching
What are the core components?
Local stabilisers
Global stabilisers
Global movement system
What comes under local stabilisers as a core component?
‘Deep core’ muscles attaching directly to spine.
Provide proprioceptive fb to CNS + ⬆️ intra abdominal pressure contributing to spinal stiffness.
What comes under global stabilisers as a core component?
‘Superficial core’ muscles
Stabilise core during movements associated w/ ⬆️ force (load, speed)
What comes under the global movement system of the core components?
Muscles inv. in the generation of movement generating both concentric force prod + eccentric deceleration
Muscles included in the local stabilisers for core components
Transverse abdominus
Segmental multifidus
Diaphragm
Pelvic floor muscles
Psoas major
Muscles included in the global stabilisers for core components
Obliques
Superficial multifidus
Medial QL
Gluteus medius
Deep medial gluteus
Gluteus maximus
Proximal adductors
Muscles included in the global movement system for core components
Rectus abdominis
Erector spinae
Latissimus dorsi
Superficial lateral gluteus maximus
Adductor longs
Where is power generated from?
Hips + transmitted through the stiffened core
Bracing
When muscles contract together they form a structure where the total stiffness is higher than the sum of the ind contributing muscles.
- Important in the ab wall, highlighting the need to contract them together in a bracing pattern.
Injury
What is delayed trunk muscle reflex response associated with?
Back injury
Injury
What is the deficient trunk proprioception associated with?
Female knee injury
Injury
What is the postural sway associated with?
Male ankle injury
Injury
What is trunk displacement associated with?
Knee injury
