What is the purpose of an activity analysis?
To collect information on performance and establish a permanent record for future comparisons.
What types of data can be gained from conducting an activity analysis?
- Technical (technique/performance) aspects
- Tactical (patterns of play) aspects
- Physiological requirements of the performance
How does recording a performance benefit future training?
It establishes baseline data for comparisons and helps isolate aspects of performance for focused analysis.
Name the four key aspects related to activity analysis.
- Physical (physiological requirements)
- Mental (psychological skills)
- Technical (performance under pressure)
- Tactical (decision making and game sense)
What is direct viewing analysis?
The most common form of activity analysis that gathers subjective information for immediate feedback.
What are the advantages of statistical recording in activity analysis?
Increases data storage and comparison ability, resulting in more specific and effective feedback.
What technologies are included in digital recording for activity analysis?
- Digital video cameras
- Tablets
- Mobile apps
- HR monitors
- GPS
- Aerial sports analysis technology
True or False: Direct viewing analysis is the only method used for activity analysis.
False
What is the significance of analyzing skill frequencies?
Links to fitness components and informs the selection of specific fitness tests and training activities.
Fill in the blank: When choosing the best fitness tests, muscle actions observed during skills should be ______ during testing.
replicated closely
How do player movements relate to fitness components?
They link directly to both fitness components and energy systems, helping identify ‘hot spots’ and movement patterns.
What can analysis of muscle groups inform?
It helps ensure specificity of testing and training by mimicking muscle movements during fitness tests.
What is the importance of analyzing work-to-rest ratios?
It helps determine training intensities and ensures specificity in training.
What are the best tools for collecting playing intensity data?
- Digital recorders
- Heart rate monitors
- GPS units
What does heart rate monitoring inform us about training?
It indicates the training zones to work within for effective energy system development.
Explain why activity analysis is crucial for developing training programs.
It identifies physical requirements like energy systems and skills, which should be replicated in training for optimal improvement.
List two limitations of using GPS tracking devices.
- Costly to use
- Not accurate for all sports (e.g., indoor sports)
What is a limitation of using work-to-rest ratios in activity analysis?
It can be very hard to measure accurately and is only suitable for intermittent sports.
