What is the anaerobic training interval? And who is it suited for (athlete)?
Doing a High intensity activity for a Short duration then a Limited recovery ( minimum 2min).
- Suited to speed and power athletes eg. Sprinters
What are the 4 flexibility trading methods ?
- ballistic
- PNF
- dynamic
- static
What is ballistic flexibility training? Which athlete would use it the most?
Repeated movements that loosen the muscles and ligaments which also allow athletes to gain strength.
E.g swinging
[Ballistic Bouncing]
Sport: Dancers, gymnasts, soccer players
When should athletes use ballistic flexibility performance? (Before or after game)
Before, as they will risk injuring themselves if they did ballistic training after their session as athletes muscles and ligaments are usually tightened after performance.
What is PNF flexibility training? Which athletes would use it the most?
Static stretches that are preformed with a partner (or wall) to help further stretch the muscle.
Athlete: gymnasts, cricket bowler
When would an athlete preform PNF flexibility performance?
Before performance as it could cause serious injury if done after performance. This is due the muscle being tight after performance.
What is dynamic flexibility training? Which athlete would benefit most out of using it?
Using a range of movement with motion and speed but staying in one position.
E.g squats, jumping jacks, arm circles
Athlete: any - soccer player
What is the significance of using flexibility training?
It increases Range Of Movement (ROM)
What is static flexibility training? Which athlete uses it most?
Stretch’s held for 10-30 seconds
Athlete: gymnasts, dancers
