Question 1

what is activity analysis

Answer 1

it is the recording and analysis of movement and skill data from a game, sport or activity

Question 2

what is the purpose of activity analysis

Answer 2

should be the first step of all training programs. They increase the specificity of a training program and help make it fit for purpose. Determines the fitness components, energy systems, and muscle groups used in the sport.

Question 3

digital recording advantage

Answer 3

advantage
- data can be manipulated and transmitted easily
-data can be archived and easily access and saved data replayed at any time

Question 4

digital recording disadvantages

Answer 4

-can be expensive
-technical expertise is often needed to operate the equipment

Question 5

two fitness components

Answer 5

aerobic power and muscular power

Question 6

aerobic power

Answer 6

def-the maximum rate of energy production for the aerobic energy system

• the bodies ability of the heart, blood vessels and respiratory systems to supply oxygen and nutrients to the working muscles and remove waste products

Question 7

factors affecting aerobic power

Answer 7

muscle fibre type
-slow twitch fibres work aerobically, therefore the greater number of slow twitch fibres greater ability to work aerobically

sex- males generally have higher aerobic power due to greater size of lungs and increased haemoglobin

Question 8

aerobic power with basketball-evidence

Answer 8

during my basketball game the aerobic energy system is of high importance as the work to rest ratio is 1:2. Because i am working more than resting this doesn’t give my anaerobic systems time to replenish so they aren’t used very much, demonstrating that aerobic power is a vital component for the game of basketball

Question 9

benefit of aerobic power

Answer 9

if you have high aerobic power you will be better able to produce atp under aerobic condition and work at a higher intensity for a longer period

Question 10

Fitness test for aerobic power 1

Answer 10

20 meter shuttle run test

Question 11

20 meter shuttle run test

Answer 11

• test increase work rate every minute by decreasing the time between beeps compelling participants to keep up with speed and intensity

Question 12

aerobic power test yo yo intermitten test

Answer 12

equipment:
cones
measure tape
cd player

method:
measure out a 20 meter course

Question 13

step 1 of yo yo test

Answer 13

At the time of the first signal, the participants run forward to the turning line.

Question 14

step 2 of yo yo test

Answer 14

At the sound of the second signal, participants arrive and turn at the turning line and then run back to the start line arriving on the next beep.

Question 15

step 3 of yo yo test

Answer 15

When the start marker is passed, the participants continue forward at a reduced pace (jogging) toward the 5-metre mark, where they then turn around the cone and return to the start line.

Question 16

step 4 of yo yo test

Answer 16

At this point, the participants stop and wait for the next signal to sound. It is important that the participants are stationary on the start line before the commencement of each sprint.

Question 17

step 5 of yo yo test

Answer 17

participants should continue running until they can not keep up with the audio of the test

Question 18

step 6 f yo yo test

Answer 18

The end of the test is indicated by the inability of a participant to maintain the required pace for two trials. The first time the start line is not reached, a warning is given; the second time the participant must withdraw.

Question 19

last step of yo yo test

Answer 19

When the participant withdraws, the last level and the number of 2 × 20-metre intervals performed at this level are recorded on the appropriate recording sheet.

Question 20

muscular power

Answer 20

def- the ability of a muscle or group of muscles to exert a maximum amount of force in the shortest period of time. Power=force x velocity

-at high speeds power can decrease due to there not being enough time to develop maximal force

-combination of strength and speed

-power activities are high intensity and short in duration

-the energy for muscular contractions is derived from the ATP-PC system

-the power the muscle can generate will depend on the force generated and the velocity at which the muscle lengthens.

Question 21

factors affecting muscular power

Answer 21

length of muscle fibre- if the muscle is slightly stretched it is in the best position to create its maximum force

speed of muscle contraction- more slowly a muscle contracts, the more force it can create

Question 22

fitness testing for muscular power 1

Answer 22

seated basketball throw

Question 23

seated basketball throw

Answer 23

equipment
-basketball and tape measure

method:
-performer sits with their back against a wall, facing in the direction of the intended throw. Their back must remain in contact with the wall

-the basketball is thrown as far as possible with a chest pass

-the distance is measured from the wall to where the basketball lands

Question 24

muscular power body parts

Answer 24

upper body muscles
- 5 passes uses upper body muscles and demonstrates the need for muscle to contract forcefully in a short period of time

jumper shots 6 also upper body

Question 25

yo yo test physiological, psychological and sociocultural

Answer 25

physiological- ensure the test mimics the skills required for basketball (current health and fitness levels)
- the yo yo test mimics the sprint efforts in the game

Question 26

purpose of fitness testing

Answer 26

to identify baseline or benchmark

identify strengths and weaknesses

Question 27

sociocultural yo yo test

Answer 27

this test is socioculturally appropriate as it is inexpensive test so participants do not have to worry about their socioeconomic status and it is also very accessible

Question 28

psychological purpose of yo yo test

Answer 28

when completing the test, the motivation levels of the participants will increase because their are other people involved and also push people to push to their highest level

Question 29

physiological seated basketball throw

Answer 29

this is appropriate because it targets the same muscles the athlete would use when passing the basketball

Question 30

pyschological seated basketball throw

Answer 30

this is appropiate because the player could have intrinsic feedback due to there being a measuring tape to record the distance therefore increasing motivation

Question 31

sociocultural seated basketball throw

Answer 31

appropriate because its inexpensive and requires little equipment and is accesible to any people with socioeconomic status (field test)

Question 32

reliability

Answer 32

all athletes must wear the same uniform and footwear
and all athletes must complete in the same conditions and same time and day
