21
Q

Digital recording

A

Statistical data can be recorded live, gathered and analysed after an event
Preferred method
Immediate analysis programs make it more efficient

22
Q

What does GPS use?

A

satellite to identify position and movement

23
Q

What does GPS stand for?

A

Global positioning system

24
Q

What does GPS measure?

A
  • distance/frequency
  • duration at speed
  • speed/acceleration
  • intensity
  • paths taken
25
Q

What are movement patterns best suited to?

A

Team sports on large playing fields

26
Q

How are movement patterns recorded?

A

GPS and manually

27
Q

What information does analysis of movement patterns provide?

A

Highly accurate information required to develop training programs
- determine predominant energy systems/fitness requirements

28
Q

What does movement patterns reveal?

A

Typical activities completed
- determine distance of efforts
- distance of sprints determine energy fitness component

29
Q

What is recorded as part of movement patterns

A
  • Type
  • Duration
  • Distance of movements
30
Q

Locomotor recording sheet

A
  • basis of statistical recording sheet
  • seperate sheet for each time period
31
Q

Advantages of GPS

A
  • efficient
  • record multiple athletes at once
  • data easily stored/converted
32
Q

Disadvantages of GPS

A
  • expensive
  • limited to outdoor activity
33
Q

What sports is skill frequency best suited to?

A

Intermittent activities

34
Q

What information is provided by skill frequency?

A

-predominant fitness components
- muscles /groups
- joint actions

35
Q

Benefit of skill frequency analysis

A

specific tests/training programs, replicating physical components

36
Q

Skill frequency tables

A

AKA stats
- direct observation
- frequency/effectiveness of skill execution

37
Q

Muscle use analysis

A
  • must be done in isolation
  • relies on subjective observation
  • major muscle groups used
  • speed of muscle contraction
  • flexibility
38
Q

What sports is heart rate best suited to?

A

Continuous

39
Q

Heart rate telemeter

A

provides data on HR response to physical activity

40
Q

What does HR measure?

A

Estimate PA as energy expenditure, O2 uptake based on linear relationship
Role of energy systems

41
Q

Benefit of HR

A

low participant burden

42
Q

Disadvantage of HR

A

calibrate device to the individual

43
Q

Limitation of HR

A

low intensity relationship between HR and intensity not linear

44
Q

Factors affecting HR

A

stress, fear, anxiety, excitement
could cause false reading

45
Q

What is Work to Rest Ratio

A

Time working and resting Ratio between each state and relative exertion levels

46
Q

What information is obtained from work to rest ratios?

A

Energy systems and intensity
- Methods of training, work intervals, rest intervals

47
Q

What is considered rest?

A

Standing still, walking, slow jogging

48
Q

Manually recording W:R

A

record work efforts on stopwatch and rest periods on another, note intensity
Combine with HR monitor for intensity

49
Q

What to analyze in W:R ratio

A
  • total work/rest time
  • avg work time per effort
  • longest work/rest time
50
Q

What sports are best suited W:R

A

Intermittent

51
Q

Disadvantages of W:R

A

time consuming
difficult to collect and analyze information
