Q

What is CSP

A

Used for aerobic fitness
Involves continuous work at a steady rate. Once the heart rate reaches the desired intensity (%MHR) it is then maintained at that intensity for a period of time (usually 30 mins +)

Q

Disadvantages of fartlek

A

Athlete decides on speed
They don’t know how hard they are working
If person isn’t feeling well eg tedium, lack of motivation it’s a waste of time as mo improvement

37
Define isometric
Muscles are working against a resistance but there is no movement of body parts
38
What does isometric training develop
Muscular endurance and strength
39
Sports which use isometric training
Gymnastics | Rugby
40
What is are the words for isometric training
Sport specific
41
What is static flexibility
Involves slowly stretching a muscle to its limit and then holding in this stretched position for 10-60 seconds
42
Define active flexibility (static)
You provide the force to stretch the muscle and hold it in that position
43
Define passive flexibility
Another person provides the force
44
Where is static flexibility used often
In cool downs | Hold for 20-30 seconds with 2-3 reps
45
Examples of static flexibility
Bending forward to the waist, bringing chest closer to quadriceps until mild tension. Hold for 10-60 seconds and repeat 2-3 times
46
What is dynamic flexibility training
Also known as active or ballistic Can be done for 20-60 secs or 20-60 reps Involves bouncing, jerking or swinging body part in order to put in stretch and and produce greater length. Not recommended for health related as it is possible to injure the muscle.
47
What is dynamic flexibility often used in
Warm ups
48
Sports that use dynamic flexibility
High jump Hockey Rugby For 20-60 reps
49
What type of stretching and give a justification is this next example: OAP doing an aerobics class
Type - static (active) | They don’t want to injure themselves
50
What type of stretching and give a justification is this next example: high performance athlete (high elite swimmer)
Ballistic | To get better rename of movement when swimming
51
What type of stretching and give a justification is this next example: large group of PS hockey players
Static (active) | As they would injure themselves otherwise
52
What type of stretching and give a justification is this next example: a footballer returning from injury
Passive or active | Gently stretch without over stretching
53
What type of stretching and give a justification is this next example: a performer preparing for tae-kwon-do
Ballistic | To mimic the movement in their kicks
54
When is the principle of peaking normally applied in a training programme
Normally applied at the end
55
What 2 changes to training usually happen in the peaking phase
High intensity training - there will be less work but any work you do participate in will be high intensity You will taper off which means steadily reducing your workload so you build up your energy stores
56
It is good practice to have at least 60 mins of moderate exercise daily Without using a gym or similar sporting facility, outline 4 opportunities for a person to include 60 mins but no more than 90 mins of exercise into their day. Mention what exercise the person would do, where they would do the exercise, when they would do it an for how long they would do it
Exercise - place - time - length Run - road - morning - 20 mins Walk - road - morning - 10 mins Lifting heavy objects - work - mid-day - 10 mins Play game with friends - at park - afternoon - 30 mins Total number of mins = 70 mins
57
What does isotonic mean
A muscle or groups of muscles working against a resistance where the movement of body parts takes place
58
What does concentric mean
Where muscle gets shorter and fatter as it works
59
What does eccentric mean
When a muscle gets longer and thinner as it works
60
What are free weights
Are weights attached to barbell or dumbbell or pre manufactured dumbbell weights. These can be moved freely about an area
61
What are fixed weights
Weights that are part of machine, moved by a pulley or lever system
62
What are machines
Some machines provide various resistances without the need for actual weight eg sled
63
What do you understand by repetition maximum (RM)
The maximum amount if weight that you can lift a certain number of times eg 1RM is the max weight you can life once, 10RM is the max you can lift 10 times
64
It is important to make use of ‘spotters’ when using weights equipment. What is a spotter and why is this important when testing a 1RM
A person or people who are placed in strategic positions to assist with the lifting of free weights. They are there to ensure that the weight is lifted safely and the performer does not become injured
65
What is the advantage of using the RM method of weight training
The principles for developing the components of fitness can be explained and applied to a group of people without referring to the specific weight. This allows for different abilities that different performers have eg athlete A could lift 80Kg in a 1RM chest press but athlete B may only be able to lift 60Kg in the same exercise
66
Give the recommendations for developing muscular power, speed and endurance
Power - 1-5RM - 3-5 sets Strength - 6-12RM - 3-5 sets Endurance - 13-25RM - 3-5 sets
67
Give an example of an isotonic exercise for biceps
Bicep curl
68
Give an isometric exercise for biceps
Hold barbell at top of bicep curl movement for 15 secs for 1 rep
69
Identify two tasks or chores that may be done at home and count as exercise
Carrying heavy bin bags | Scrubbing something really dirty
70
Is aerobic or anaerobic energy production more important for inclusion in a health related exercise programme. Exhaling your answer
Aerobic It is more important as you need to be walking all day and may participate in extra sports. To avoid health related problems aerobic fitness is more beneficial
71
Select an appropriate intensity and work time for a continuous steady pace exercise workout for a person who is unfit and just starting exercise. Explain, using examples, how the intensity (%MHR) and work time would change over the exercise program
Intensity at start - 60%MHR work time at start - 15 mins The person is only beginning and is not able to run as far although each week you could increase the time to avoid plateauing and get fitter
72
Identify one similarity between fartlek and interval training
Both fartlek and interval training can be used to develop aerobic and anaerobic fitness
73
Identify one difference between fartlek and interval training
Fartlek is decided on the day while interval is preset
74
What is the second version of circuit training and what does it give you
Most often used to develop muscular endurance | To develop muscular strength you need an RPE of around 8/10 - exercises must be made harder eg add more weight
75
Muscular power through circuits
You need pylometric exercises which require explosiveness eg box jumps
