Q

How can you change the intensity of HITT

A

Duration of work periods
Intensities
Number of sets and reps
Recovery time
Type of exercise

17
Q

What does plyometric training improve

A

Power
Muscular strength

18
Q

What are the 3 stages of plyometric jumps

A
  1. Eccentric pre-stretch
  2. Amortisation (quick change from done to up or backwards to forwards)
  3. Concentric contraction
19
Q

How can you change the intensity of plyometric training

A

Increasing sets and reps
Reducing rest/recovery

20
Q

Types of flexibility training

A

Active- no external resistance
Passive- external resistance
Ballistic- bouncing in and out of stretching position
Static- body is held still
Dynamic- body is moving
PNF

21
Q

What is PNF

A

Proprioceptive neuromuscular function

22
Q

What is the process of PNF

A
  1. Partner assisted stretch
  2. 6-8 secs of isometric contractions against resistance (this activates the Golgi tendon organ which relax the muscle)
  3. Athlete relaxes
  4. The partner passive stretch to new limit so range of movement is increased
23
Q

Advantages of weight training

A

Increases muscular strength
Endurance

24
Q

Disadvantages of weight training

A

Free weights can lead to injury

25
Q

Advantages of continuous training

A

Easy to do
No equipment

26
Q

Disadvantages of continuous training

A

Boring

27
Q

Advantages of fartlek training

A

A bit more interesting
No equipment

28
Q

Disadvantages of fartlek training

A

Can be different to work at correct intensity

29
Q

Advantages of circuit training

A

Can work a range of CoF at one time

30
Q

Disadvantages of circuit training

A

Might not want to work on multiple CoF at one time

31
Q

Advantages of interval (HITT)

A

Quick
Speed and aerobic capacity increased
Quick aerobic gain compared to continuous

32
Q

Disadvantages of interval training (HITT)

A

No pain no gain approach which may lead to injury
Hard to get work/rest exactly right

33
Q

Advantages of plyometric training

A

Effective in increasing power

34
Q

Disadvantages of plyometric training

A

Initial level of strength needed otherwise injury may occur

35
Q

Advantages of mobility

A

Less likely to get injured
More range of motion
Increase power and speed

36
Q

Disadvantages of mobility

A

Ballistic stretching can cause injury if done by inexperienced athletes
Long time to do and gain benefits from
