Name the six goals of a warm-up?
Preprare the muslces, prepare the joints,prepare the mind, prevent injury,prepare the ligament, prepare the cardiovascular system.
3 stages of a warm up?
Cardiovascular, Stretching, Sports specific
Cardiovascular phase
Gradually raise the heart rate towards the working heart rate, this phase can take various forms depending on the main activity. The part usually takes between 10-15 mins depending on the person and the activity. Professional athletes usually take longer as they will be preparing psychologically.
Stretching phase
Static- easy, on the spot stretching without straining. Dynamic- stretches that use movements specific to a sport,gradually increasing your reach and speed.
Sports specific phase
The final phase of the warm up will be to practice the skills of the activity such as
- Sprint Starts (sprinter)
- catching crosses, shot stopping (goalkeepers)
Goals of a cool-down
Activities similar to those used in the warm-up such as jogging can be used to return heart rate gradually to its resting level. The cool down usually takes about 5-10 mins. Static stretching is preferred in a cool-down and are held for 30-35secs.
Why do we set goals?
We set goals to make us more motivated, this will will help us to complete our final achievement easier if we break it up into different stages to complete (goals).
What anagram do we use to set goals?
SMART
How to set goals?
Specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, time-bound.
Specific (SMART)
Means exactly knowing what the goal is. ‘I want to run 100m further in my cooper run’ is specific.
Measurable (SMART)
Means it will be easy to know when goals are achieved. Time, Distance, Speed.
Achievable (SMART)
Goals must be attainable. Unachievable goals result in demotivation. E.g. 100m increase in cooper run is more achievable than 1000m.
Realistic (SMART)
A goal can be achievable in practice but there are other reasons that may hinder the completion of that goal. E,g the gym was closed so i couldn’t do weight training.
Time-bound (SMART)
Does the goal have an end point?
If it doesn’t then it is easy to put off.
E.g the training will be every week for 6 months.
