Revison Flashcards
Does warming up reduce injury
Yes but can be injured in warm up and despite warm up
Does warm up improve performance
Yes but there are mixed results because you don’t want to over work the warm up
What are the 3 cost of warming up
- time
- Physiology
- use of substrate
What is warm up proportional to
Intensity
What is warm up inversely proportional to
duration of effort
Repetition (w/ practice) allow human to:
(3 point)
- percieve
- decide
- act
What is deliberate practice
differs from play
No immediate award
High interacts motivated
structured
what is deliberate play
internal motivation
unsupervised
immediate reward
enjoyment
representative learning is when
content reflects the performance of environment
What is challenge point (referring to practice)
modifying a skill for different people
High contextual interference effect means
you learn better and skills are in a random order
Do you learn better with a distribution of practice or mass group
distribution of practice
Does sleeping improve motor skills
yes sleep consolidate learning
What is a form of direct measurement?
Cadaver
What are some examples of indirect measuring
imaging of tissue, labeled water dilution, densitometry
What are some examples of doubly indirect measurement
Bio impedance analysis (BIA), skinfolds and ultra sound, 3D scanning , 2D photos
Most (and eventually all) of the energy released from stored chemical energy during exercise will become
Thermal energy (heat)
which would LEAST important performance determinant for cold water endurance
Anaerobic power
Which fuel can NOT be catabolised (broken down) and used to drive oxidative metabolism
Creatine Phosphate
Which is the LEAST useful got measuring energy usage
Knowing blood lactate concentration
What is the Gold-standard method by which you might be able to measure usage at rest or during exercise
Oxygen consumption
Upper sustainable limit of human metabolic rate, during prolonged exercise or other stress lasting weeks or more, appears to b approx. how high relative to BMR
2.5x
How efficiently do humans perform dynamic exercise? i.e. what proportion of stored food-substrate energy get converted into useful work
0-22%
Is heart rate linearly related to work rate and to oxygen consumption
YES
What is the gold standard for measuring body density
Underwater weighing
Muscles are the strongest when tested …..
isometrically
- specific to sport or isolates muscle joint
What is the best way to measure power
Vertical jump
What is the best way to train power
plyometric
Humans are built bilateral this allows
organisms to move purposefully and efficiently
Humans are built for what type of movements
Powerful and endurance
how is BMI measured
mass(kg)/height2 (m)
What does BMI not measure
body composition, fat mass, fat free mass
anthropometry is a standardised technique which
predict body size, proportion and shape
3 indirect measures
imaging tissue
labelled water dilution
densitomerty
Why can you calf raise so much weight
class 2 lever
gastrocnemius and solus able to achieve high force value
muscle configuration evolves
why do people train with chains on a bench press bar
the resistance will increase as the height of the bar increases. therefore end of the lift should feel as heavy as beginning
What is torque
the turning effect e.g. axis
how to measure torque
T= Fx r(moment arm)
what is the peak torque from biceps brachii at elbow flexion
80 degrees
what is the most efficient way to lose weight
eatting less
an open skill
is performed in a changing environment e.g. netball
an close skill is one that s
performed in a predictable environment e.g. tennis serve
concentric muscle is
shorting
eccentric muscle is
lengthing
open kinetic chain
movement that can move freely
e.g. dumbbell curl
Closed kinetic chain
distal and proximal segments are fixed
e.g. squat or press ups
What are two contributors to a skilled performance
Predisposition and practice
a skill requies
perception, intention, postural control and coordination
what is postural control
a key factor that under pins skilled performance
- subconscious controlled
what is the definition of coordination
pattern of body and limb motions relative to patterning of environmental objects and events
T/F
Typically more individual component parts or degrees of freedom that are necessary to perform a given task successfully
true
Degree of freedom
things the can move or change position
What are bernstein 3 learning stages
- freezing limbs
- releasing limbs
- exploitation of environment
What are some examples of physical literacy
agility, balance, coordination, speed power, precision, strength, endurance
Describe a force
Push or pull
moving object
Non-contact forced relate to mass and magnitude
What is titin when referring to force bing generated by contraction muscle
a highly elastic component that creates the stretch of muscle fibres
What is the peak/optimal load of force for a joint angle
75-85% mark
What is the men opt angle for elbow torque
86%
what is the equation for measuring force
F=m xa
how do you measure work - and what units
W= F x s
jules
if two people with the same mass and the same distance will the work be the SAME
YES
Power measures the rate of
work
what is one equation for power
P=w/t (watts)
what is the best way to measure max force
isometrically
what is the best way to measure max force
isometrically
How do you train power (3 ways)
- stimulate as many muscle fibres at one time
- simulate nervous system by moving quick
- use functional exercise = plyometrics
