Aerobic Endurance - The ability of the cardiorespiratory system to work efficiently, supplying nutrients and oxygen to working muscles during sustained physical activity. Cardiorespiratory System - Consists of the cardiovascular system (heart, blood and blood vessels) and the respiratory system (lungs and airways). Cardiovascular System - The heart, blood and blood vessels Respiratory System - Lungs and airways Waste Products - Products that form in the body as a result of exercise that are not needed. Muscular Endurance - The ability of the muscular system to work efficiently, where a muscle can continue contracting over a period of time against a light to moderate fixed resistance load. Reversibility - the training principle that fitness improvements are lost when training is lowered or stops
Static Stretching - a technique in which a muscle is slowly and gently stretched and then held in the stretched position 1 Rep Max (1RM) - The maximum amount a performer can lift in one repetition Hollow Sprints - A method of training used to increase speed. Athlete will sprint for a set distance, slow down and then sprint again. Multistage Fitness Test - Tests cardiovascular endurance. Jogging between 2 lines, 20m apart, ensuring that you get to the line before the beep. Vertical Jump Test - Tests power. Jump as high as you can, measurement between standing height and jumping height taken. Reliability - Consistency of measurement. If you completed the test again, would you get the same results. Validity - The ability of a test to measure what it is intended to measure 1 Minute Press Up Test - Tests muscular endurance. The number of press ups that can be completed in 1 minute.
Muscular Strength - the maximum force that can be applied by a muscle or muscle group Speed Endurance - sprints with short recovery period in-between Accelerative speed - Sprints up to 30m Pure speed - Sprints up to 60m. Speed - Distance travelled by the time taken Flexibility - The ability to move your body parts through their full range of motion Body Composition - The ratio of fat mass to fat free mass within the body Agility - The ability to move quickly and precisely or change direction withoiut losing balance or time Balance - The ability to maintain the centre of mass over the base of support
Coordination - The smooth flow of movement needed to perform a motor task efficiently and accurately. Power - The product of strength and speed Reaction Time - The time taken for sports performer to respond to a stimulus and the initiation of their response. Rest and Recovery - taking a short time off from physical activities to allow the body to recuperate and improve Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation (PNF) - Stretch muscle statically, contract and stretch muscle statically beyond initial static stretch Continuous training - this is training at a steady pace and moderate intensity for a minimum period of 30 minutes. Interval training - Alternating periods of work with active recovery VO2 max - Maximum oxygen uptake; most oxygen used when working the hardest you can
Time - How long an individual will train for Type - The selected training method that an individual would use. Warm up - an activity that prepares the muscles and the rest of the body for exercise Circuit training - Performing a series of exercises, one after the other. The stations can be targeted on the component of fitness that needs to be Sit and reach test - Tests flexibility. Reach as far forward as you can with your feet flat to the box. 35 Metre Sprint Test - Tests speed. Sprint 35m as quickly as you can. Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) - Tests body composition. Running a low- level electrical current through the body. Pretest procedures - Various procedures that take place before testing. Gaining consent, checking equipment.
Progressive Overload - To gradually increase the amount of overload so that fitness gains occur, but without potential for injury Specificity - Training should be specific to the individual's sport, activity or physical/skill-related fitness goals to be developed. Individuals needs and differences - The programme should be designed to meet individual training goals and needs. Adaptation - How the body reacts to training loads by increasing its ability to cope with those loads. Adaptation occurs during the recovery period after the training session is completed. Cool down - Low-level activity that prepares your body to return to a resting state Free weights - Weight training using dumbbells and barbells Fartlek training - Training where the intensity is varied by running at different speeds over different terrains.
