1.1.4b Methods of training and assessing fitness Learning objectives To understand the different methods of training and their effects. To describe various fitness test that are useful to a performer during a PEP.
2
Par Q Par Q stands for Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire This is the first step in assessing whether an individual is suitable to do physical activity. It asks about your health status and conditions that may effect exercise. Task: Discuss and complete a Par-Q questionnaire
3
Methods of Training
4
This training involves periods of work followed by periods of rest. i.e. Sprint for 20 metre + walk back to start. What athletes/performers would benefit from this method of training? Interval Training
5
What muscles group would this training help build? – think muscle types? What body system is working during this type of training? - Fast Twitch muscle fibres - Anaerobic – without air Example = 200m Lactic acid and oxygen debt builds up during interval training. The rest phase allows for recovery of these levels.
6
Interval Training Long Interval Training: Work time can range from 20 seconds to 3 minutes. WHO MIGHT BENEFIT FROM LONGER INTERVAL TRAINING? -Used by games players and middle distance runners i.e. 400m X 5 with 2 minutes rest in between each set
7
Interval Training Short Interval Training: Work time will be no longer than 20 seconds. WHO MIGHT BENEFIT FROM LONGER INTERVAL TRAINING? -Used by sprinters and racket sport players due to short bursts needed. i.e. 50m X 7 with 2 minutes rest in between each set
8
Continuous Training Involves a steady but regular pace. i.e. Jogging. It is important to maintain heart rate in the training threshold (60-80% of MAX) Activities can includes running, walking, swimming, rowing or cycling. A gradual warm up followed by a steady pace.
9
- Slow twitch muscle fibres - Aerobic – with air Continuous Training What particular athletes may use this method of training? What muscles group would this training help build? – think muscle types? What body system is working during this type of training? Long distance events – Marathon
10
Means ‘SPEED PLAY’. It is a combination of running, cycling speeds. i.e. 1 lap at 50% max, 1 lap walking, 1 lap at 80% What athletes may use this method of training? Fartlek Training Works on both aerobic and anaerobic fitness due to the varying intensities.
11
- Used by team games performers as it suits the movements necessary for a game. - Can be completed over different terrains - woods / hills / roads to create a variety of intensities. Fartlek Training
12
Circuit training is a series of exercises completed one after another. It is a very good way of developing general fitness. 1) Sit-ups 3) Shuttle Runs 2) Step-ups4) Press-ups Circuit Training Each circuit should have between 7 and 12 stations. Each specific exercise is undertaken a number of times or for a period of time at a station. (usually up to 45 secs). These are called ‘reps’. Example:
13
2) Squats1) Sit-ups When all the exercises in the circuit have been completed this is known as a set. 3) Press-ups4) Step-ups 5) Dolphins6) Squat Thrusts8) Pull-ups7) Shuttle Runs
14
Circuit training can help to improve MUSCULAR ENDURANCE CARDIOVASCULAR FITNESS Circuits can be made specific by using skills from your chosen sport. i.e. basketball Stations could include: - Dribbling - Shooting - 1 vs 1 - Defending - Free throws Stations could include: - Dribbling - Shooting - 1 vs 1 - Defending - Free throws
15
What factors should you consider about the order of the activities and why? How can the intensity be increased? i.e. make it harder
16
WEIGHT TRAINING is a form of training that uses progressive resistance against a muscle group. 1.Increase muscular strength 2.Increase muscular endurance 3.Recover after injury. How can weight training benefit a performer? Weight Training
17
Weight training can increase: Muscular strength:High weight x low repetitions Muscular endurance:Low weight x high repetitions Weight Training Rest and recovery time will depend on: -Athlete’s fitness -Athlete’s weight -Sets completed 2 days is the average recovery period to mend damaged muscle fibres.
18
Pyramid sets: performer starts of light with more reps and works up to heavy weight and few reps. Weight Training
19
There are 2 ways you can train: Machine WeightsFree Weights Weight Training
20
Machine WeightsFree Weights Weight Training Positives: -Safe to use -Technically design to work specific muscle groups. -Always ready to use Drawbacks: -Extra weight cannot be added. Positives: -Provides a wider range of movement. -can develop explosive strength (many top performer use free weights) Drawbacks: -Need a spotter for safety reasons. -Injury is more likely to occur if posture is not right
21
Using different training methods to enhance fitness levels: i.e. A footballer using swimming to improve cardiovascular fitness. Cross Training It can break up the routine of training while still gaining benefits
22
EXAM QUESTION Write down 3 statements about each of the following methods of training. (a)Fartlek Training (b)Continuous Training (c)Cross Training
23
c) Not for beginners: d) Easy to work: e) Builds up strength: f) Limit to the amount of weight lifted: g) Injury due to poor technique: h) Seats and belts make them safe: i) Can help after injury: j) Move only in the designed way: k) Needs a spotter: l) Use on your own: m) Top sportspeople use them: n) Uses anaerobic and aerobic respiration: o) Easier to apply more weight: p) Always set up and ready to use Put the following statements under either one of the headings.
