Q

Physical literacy

A
  • Demonstrating a wide variety of basic human movements
  • Move with confidence, competence and creativity
  • Develop the motivation, ability and knowledge to understand, communicate, apply and analyze different forms of movement
  • Make choices that engage them in physical activity

Q

Specialization

A

Children should participate in a wide variety of sports, athletes can select a late specialization sport between the ages of 12 and 15
- EARLY SPECIALIZATION: Acrobatic sports, highly kinesthetic, dynamic and complex motor sports
- LATE SPECIALIZATION: Allows for greater development of motor skills and abilities, early specialization in a late specialization sport contributes to lack of ABC’s, overuse injuries or early burnout

Q

Competition

A
  • Early stages mostly training
  • switch at train to compete mostly comp
  • Over-competition and under training can result in the lack of basic skills and fitness
17
Q

Excellence takes time

A

10000 hours to master your craft

18
Q

System Alignment and integration

A
  • Tool for change towards full system
  • Athlete centered, coach driven, and administration/sports science/ sponsor supported
  • Activities of schools, communities, clubs and PSO/NSO’s should be fully aligned and integrated through sport for life
19
Q

Continuous imporvement

A
  • Responds to and incorporates scientific, coaching and sport specific innovations
  • Promotes ongoing education
  • Promotes integration between sectors based on common goals and principles
20
Q

Why resistance training for children

A
  • Promotes muscular strength, motor skills, and lifelong physical activity habits
  • Enhances body awareness, weight room etiquette, and enjoyment of exercise
  • Prepares young athletes for sport and reduces injury risk
21
Q

Key guidelines for RT in children

A
  1. Readiness - interest in participating
  2. Focus area - intrinsic goals: skill improvement, personal success and fun
  3. Progression - Start with light/no weight for technique mastery and gradual increases in load or sets after technique is consistent
22
Q

Injury prevention strategies for RT in youth

A
  • Professional supervision to maintain technique and reduce overuse risk
  • Comprehensive, year-round programs with varied intensity and type
  • Encourage recovery periods between seasons and avoid early specialization
23
Q

Components of a balanced program in children

A
  1. Physical training: RT, Plyo, speed, agility, balance work
  2. Lifestyle factors: promote adequate sleep, hydration, balanced nutrition
24
Q

General considerations for training in older adults

A
  1. Maintaining strength and functionality
    - RT helps preserve muscle mass and maintain bone density, reducing the risk of osteoporosis and fracturs
    - aim to maintain or improve balance, mobility and functional independence to reduce fall risk and improve quality of life
  2. Start low, progress gradually
    - Begin with low Resistance and volume, increase as the athlete adapts to avoid injury
    - Focus on functional exercises that replicate everyday movements
25
Q

Injury prevention and wellness in RT with older adults

A
  • Flexibility and balance training: include stretching and balance exercises to reduce fall risk and improve joint flexibility
  • Gradual load increase: avoid rapid intensity increases, ensuring the athlete can maintain proper technique with each progression
26
Q

Frequency and volume in RT with Older adults

A
  • 2-3 times per week
  • 1-3 sets per exercise
  • 8 to 12 reps
27
Q

Recovery and progression with RT in older adults

A

allow adequate recovery (1-2 days) to avoid overtraining and facilitate muscle repair

28
Q

Principles of rehab

A
  1. Avoid overstressing healing tissue
  2. Progression based on specific criteria
  3. Evidence-based approach
  4. Individualized programs
  5. Team-oriented process (collaboration between doctor, coach, S&C and athlete)
29
Q

Exercise strategies during Inflammatory response

A
  1. Relative Rest for injured area
  2. Exercise for uninjured areas
  3. Focus on maintain fitness
30
Q

Exercise strategies for fibroblastic repair

A
  1. Isometric exercise
  2. Isokinetic/ Isotonic exercise
  3. Neuromuscular control training
31
Q

Exercise strategies for maturation or remodeling phase

A
  1. Sport-specific training
  2. Velocity-specific training
  3. closed kinetic chain exercises
  4. Open kinetic chain exercises
