But can be boring and repetitive

Question 12

Fartlek

Answer 12

Answer 15

Pulse raiser 
Mobility
Stretching
Dynamic movements
Skills rehearsal

Question 16

Purpose of a warm up

Answer 16

Body/ muscle temperature increase
Heart rate increases 
Blood flow and oxygen to the muscles increases
Flexibility of muscles and joints 
Pliability if ligaments and tendons
Speed of muscular contraction increases

Question 17

Components of a cool down

Answer 17

Low intensity (aerobic) exercise 
Stretching stretches should be held longer than in warm up

Question 18

Answer 18

Gradually lower heart and breathing rate
Lowers body temperature
Continues to circulate blood
Prevent joint and muscle soreness

Removes lactic acid
Prevent blood pooling in veins
