Unit 1 Exercise physiology, performance analysis and training Flashcards
what is the coaching process?
performance, coach observes, coach plans training and coach conducts training
what are the limitations of just a coaches observations?
- bias
- emotions
- unreliable
- inaccurate
what are the aspects of a performance a coach would want to analyse?
- tactical
- technical
- physical
- behavioural
what is technical analysis?
analysis of sport specific skills
what is tactical analysis?
analysis of the style of play
what is behavioural analysis?
analysis of players cognitive performance
what is physical analysis?
analysis of players physical performance
what is qualitative data? and give an example
relating to, measuring, or measured by the quality of something rather than quantity
e.g. video analysis
what is quantatative data? and give an example
relating to, measuring, or measured by the quantity of something rather than quality
e.g. statistical analysis
what are the types of performance analysis?
- GPS/ time motion analysis
- video analysis
- biomechanical analysis
- statistical analysis
what are the types of video analysis?
- slow motion
- frame by frame
- split screen
what is split screen?
it has multiple angles shown
what is frame by frame?
it has focus on specific parts of skill
what is slow motion?
the break down of subroutines
advantages of video analysis
- compare performances
- improve performance
- spot mistakes
- immediate feedback
disadvantages of video analysis
- can be expensive
- have bad quality
- can miss certain things
- demotivating
what is notational analysis?
it is the system of recording data by hand (back in the day)
updated software now e.g hawkeye and prozone
what is the axial skeleton used for?
protection
what is the appendicular skeleton used for?
movement
what is in the axial skeleton?
- skull
- vertebrae
- ribs
what is in the appendicular skeleton?
- arms
- legs
- pelvis
what are the functions of the skeleton?
- support
- protection
- movement
- production of red blood cells
- storage of minerals
what are the types of bones? and an example of each
- long bones e.g. femur
- short bones e.g. carpals
- flat bones e.g. scapula
- irregular bones e.g. vertebrae
- sesamoid bones e.g. patella
- structural bones e.g. bones between cranial
what is a ligament?
they connect bone to bone
they provide stability
e.g. ACL, PCL
what is a tendon?
they connect bone to muscle
they provide movement
what is a cartilage?
they provide shock absorption
they provide shape
they prevent wear and tear
what are the 3 types of cartilage and where are they found?
- articular hygiene cartilage
- found in surface of joints - white fibrocartilage
- found in discs between vertebrae - yellow elastic cartilage
- found in ear
what are the muscular functions?
- movement
- support
- posture
- heat production
what is an agonist muscle?
the muscle directly responsible for movement
what is an antagonist muscle?
the muscle that relaxed but helps movement
what is the sunergist?
the muscle that assists the agonist muscle
what is a fixator?
a muscle that stabilises the body and prevents unwanted movements
what are the types of muscular contraction?
- isometric
- concentric
- eccentric
what is the isometric muscle contraction?
where the muscle contracts but doesnt shorten
there is no movement
what is the concentric muscle contraction?
where the muscle shortens
what is the eccentric muscle contraction?
where the muscle lengthens
what is the contraction called where the muscle has a type of movement?
isotonic
