Preparation And Training Methods Flashcards
Cardio-respiratory
Ability to delay the onset of fatigue
Cardio-respiratory methods of training
Continuous
Fartlek training
Strength
Force with which a muscle can contract
Explosive strength
Rapid contraction of a muscle to achieve maximum generation of force
Dynamic strength
Repeated contraction and relaxation of a single muscle
Static strength
Holding a body part in a static position
Methods of training to improve strength
Circuits
Weights
Isometric training
Methods of training to improve muscular endurance
Weights
Circuits
Muscular endurance
Ability of a muscle to repeat muscular contractions
Speed
Time taken out move the body/body part
Methods of training to improve speed
HIT
Intermittent
Fartlek training
SAQ training
Methods of training to improve power
Plyometrics
Weights
Power
Work done per unit of time/force linked with speed
Flexibililty
Range of movement about a joint
Methods of stretching
Active
Passive
Static/PNF
Ballistic
Active stretching
Holding a stretched position by contraction of your own agonistic muscles
Passive stretching
Stretch position being held by something other than the agonistic muscles
Static/PNF stretching
Stretching to limit of range and then isometrically contracting the stretched muscles
Ballistic stretching
Movement to ‘bounce’ in and out of a stretch
Body composition
Amount of lean body tissue to fat in our bodies
Healthy amount of fat for a man
Between 15-18%
Healthy amount of fat for a woman
20-25%
Training method to improve body composition
Continuous
Agility
Ability to move and change direction and position of the body quickly and effectively under control
Agility
Ability to move and change direction and position of the body quickly and effectively under control
Method of training to improve agility
SAQ training
Static balance
Ability to maintain stable at equilibrium/COG over base of support
Method of training to improve static and dynamic balance
Core stability
Dynamic balance
Ability to maintain balance under changing conditions of movement and position
Co-ordination
Effective interrelationship of commands from the central nervous system linked to the responses form the muscle motor units required to achieve movement
Reaction time
How quickly your brain can respond to a stimulus and initiate a response
Continuous training
Targets aerobic system by working continuously at the same intensity
Exercise within ATZ and 20-60 mins
Benefit of continuous training to a games player
Develop aerobic fitness
Increase VO2 max
Increase anaerobic threshold
Speeds up EPOC
Good as a pulse raiser within warm up
Anaerobic threshold
Point before you get tired
Limitations to a games player of continuous training
Football played at various intensities
No improvement in speed and agility - vital components in game
Within games - no continuous running for long periods of time
Medium to low intensity - negative impact on FTMF
