5 reasons for fitness testing
Determining fitness component strengths and weaknesses Establishing a baseline Motivation Selection criteria for employment such as police Identifying specific attributes
27
What is a PAR-Q and its importance?
A PAR-Q is a pre-exercise screening questionnaire, which determines a persons readiness for fitness testing. It is important for identifying potential health risks.
28
How is a test valid?
It measures what it claims to
29
How is a test reliable?
It produces consistent results under similar conditions
30
What is the difference between lab testing and field testing?
Lab testing is done in a lab/advanced facility, generally done for individual testing, whereas field testing is completed in a field environment, such as a sports field/court, and can test multiple athletes at once.
31
What is the difference between maximal and submaximal testing?
A max test is completed as close as possible to exhaustion whereas submax tests are performed at lower intensities.
32
What is the difference between direct testing and indirect testing?
Direct testing directly measures the function of a fitness component, whereas an indirect test uses predictive measures to estimate fitness levels.
33
Muscular power fitness tests
Vertical jump | Seated basketball throw
34
Muscular strength fitness tests
Bench press test | Handgrip dynamometer strength test
35
Muscular endurance fitness tests
Timed push-ups/sit-ups | Beep test
36
Coordination fitness tests
Alternate hand wall-toss test
37
Body composition fitness tests
BMI Waist circumference Percentage body fat
38
Anaerobic capacity fitness tests
300 meter shuttle run test | 30-second wingate test
39
Aerobic power tests
1-mile run VO2 Max test 20 meter shuttle run tests
40
Flexibility fitness tests
Sit and reach
41
Agility fitness test
Illinois agility test
42
Balance fitness test
Stork stand balance test
43
Speed fitness test
20m sprint/50m sprint
44
Reaction time fitness test
Ruler drop reaction test
45
What is a fitness battery test?
A fitness battery test refers to several fitness tests being performed to assess various fitness components to create a fitness profile.
46
What is the aim of an activity analysis?
An activity analysis aims to create a reliable record of performance by analysing observations with the aim of making changes to improve performance.
47
Specific information that can be determined by activity analysis (what to look for in data)
``` Heart rate data Work-to-rest ratio Major muscle groups used in performance Skill frequencies Performance intensities Factors associated with fatigued Movement patterns ```
48
What does direct observation record?
Skill frequencies Player movement patterns Use of playing area (hot spots) Performance intensity (subjective tho)
49
What does direct observation with statistics record?
Skill frequencies | Other quantitative data
50
What does a HR monitor record?
Heart rate | Performance intensity
51
What does a GPS record?
``` Speed Distance Displacement Hot spots Performance intensity ```
52
What does video recording record?
Skill frequencies Use of playing area Performance intensity (subjective)
53
Advantages of direct observation
Immediate changes and adjustments can be made in game | Player fatigue can be easily identified and counteracted
54
Disadvantages of direct observation
Decisions are opinion based No way to show players how they performed Pace of game can be too fast to catch everything
55
Advantages of direct observation and statistics
Data can be saved for future reference | Player performance profiles can be established
56
Disadvantages of direct observation and stats
Labour intensive | Hard to record data and live-analyse at same time
57
Digital/video recording advantages
Data can be archived and used at any time | Data can be transmitted easily
58
Disadvantages of HR monitors
May be delays in real-time signals
59
GPS advantages
Combines movement patterns with intensities Easily identifies fatiguing players Can be used in field, not just lab tests
60
GPS disadvantages
Uncomfortable to wear | Limited contextual info provided
61
Sky cam advantages
Every player is visible the whole game | Off ball movements can be analysed
62
Sky cam disadvantages
Expensive to implement and maintain
63
What does analysing movement patterns tell?
Hot spots on field | Movement intensities
64
What does analysing skill frequencies tell?
Frequency of skills Effectiveness of skills How improvements in technical and tactical performance can be made
65
What does a 1:1 work rest ratio mean?
The aerobic system contributes significantly to energy production
66
What does a 1:2-1:3 work rest ratio mean?
The anaerobic glycolysis system contributes significantly to energy production
67
What does a 1:5 work rest ratio mean?
The ATP-CP system contributes significantly to energy production
68
Factors to consider when testing
``` Health status of participant Cultural sensitivity Timing/scheduling Financial costs Confidentiality ```
69
Introduction for written breakdown
Within the following activity analysis, there will be a discussion of the major fitness components, energy systems, and major muscle groups used by an athlete in a sport match. The methods for data collection are this, and they record this. The data analysis will allow for the major fitness component strengths and weakness to be identified and establish a baseline for the player, so they know what fitness tests would be appropriate to undertake to improve their performance.
70
What information should be in the fitness components paragraph?
4 key fitness components used (data) Muscle groups used in those fitness components Definitions of the fitness components Why a player would want to improve the fitness component in relation to the sport
71
What info should be in the energy systems paragraph?
All 3 energy systems contribute to resynthesis of ATP during the game W:R ratio and what that indicates Contribution of each system (significance and data suggesting that) Importance of having an efficient aerobic, ana glyc. ATP-CP system
72
What info should be in the fitness tests paragraph?
Why we fitness test (establish a baseline and identify S+W) Informed consent and PAR-Q explanation Minimum 3 fitness tests and how it relates to sport (data and gameplay) 2 considerations at end of para
73
What info should be in the conclusion?
Summary based on data (FC, ES, MG) | 2 limitations and how to fix (why changes would benefit analysis)
74
What is the importance of the aerobic system in sport?
Allows for high intensity efforts for long durations Removes metabolic by-products (ana glyc significant contribution) Replenishes depleted CP stores if given sufficient time of periods of low intensity.
75
What is the importance of the anaerobic glycolysis system in sport?
Allows for repeated high-intensity efforts with little rest
76
What is the importance of the ATP-CP system in sport?
Allows for explosive movements
