1 Information/Discussion Practical Application Links Diagram/Table Activity Revision GCSE Physical Education MAIN MENU SECTION A (& Short Course) GCSE Physical Education UNIT 1 - Information Flexibility Training The ability to move muscles and joints through their full ranges of motion Improve efficiency of movement and technique - this helps to save energy Increase other physical fitness components e.g. speed and agility Examples of flexibility activities: Gymnastics: held bridge position Sprinter stretching leg muscles Yoga positions

2 Information/Discussion Practical Application Links Diagram/Table Activity Revision GCSE Physical Education MAIN MENU SECTION A (& Short Course) UNIT 1 - Information Flexibility Training TYPE OF FLEXIBILITY STATIC: Relates to the range of movement only. STRETCHING: The process of elongating the tissue. EXAMPLES OF STRETCH ACTIVITIES FOR EACH TYPE OF FLEXIBILITY Stretch to the furthest point, and hold It is the safest method Simple to carry out Requires little energy It allows time for the muscle fibres to relax e.g. holding a "split" position

3 Information/Discussion Practical Application Links Diagram/Table Activity Revision GCSE Physical Education MAIN MENU SECTION A (& Short Course) GCSE Physical Education UNIT 1 - Information Flexibility Training BALLISTIC: Bouncing, rebounding and rhythmic motion. Momentum takes the moving limb or part of the body to its limits in order to increase the range of movement (e.g. swinging, flinging and bobbing). DYNAMIC: This refers to the ability to use a full range of movement in the performance of a physical activity at normal speed of the action. It is performed under control and does not end with jerky movements. For these types of flexibility: The risk of injury is greater They do not give time for the tissue to adapt Can increase muscle tension

4 Information/Discussion Practical Application Links Diagram/Table Activity Revision GCSE Physical Education MAIN MENU SECTION A (& Short Course) UNIT 1 - Information Flexibility Training Refer to the ‘Stages/ Procedures of a Training Session’ video clip: e.g. Warm up - cross-country Arm swings etc. ACTIVE FLEXIBILITY: Can be static or dynamic. It refers to the range of movement an individual can carry out without assistance. PASSIVE FLEXIBILITY: The individual makes no contribution to the motion and an external force is applied - a partner assists or the person pulls himself or herself into the extended position.

5 Information/Discussion Practical Application Links Diagram/Table Activity Revision GCSE Physical Education MAIN MENU SECTION A (& Short Course) GCSE Physical Education UNIT 1 - Information Flexibility Training An example of active stretching is slowly raising the leg to a 100 degree angle, and holding P.N.F. (Proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation): When a joint is moved to its "maximum" range and then contracts against a resistance (a partner) before relaxing. This is repeated, allowing the athlete to stretch even further. Disadvantages: There is a greater risk of injury The techniques need a knowledgeable partner It takes a lot of time
