Which of the following, according to Baechle and Earle (2000), is the MOST influential factor to determine a sprinter’s maximum velocity?

Stride Frequency

Deceleration techniques and skills depend on which of the following factors?

All of the ground actions during the ground support phase contribute to optimal stride length and frequency EXCEPT

According to Cissik (2004) there are a number of factors that affects speed. These include:

Structurla make up of athletes muscles


How well the musclesare able to use fuel


fleibility


fatigue


stirde length and stirde frequneyc


technique

With regard to measuring sports speed, then according to Frost, Cronin and Levin (2008), if the distance to be travelled is more than 0.5 meters, then it is advisable to use what type of starting position?

Step backward

When discussing movement mechanics and the development of speed technique to improve running velocity, the strength and conditioning coach should focus on ______?

Stride frequency

Various methods are used to enhance sprint speed including assisted and resisted sprints. With regard to improving stride length and stride frequency it is recommended that __________?

Active Recovery (low intensity exercise) is believed to be an integral component of physical recovery. Anecdotal evidence suggests that the effect of active recovery is to:

Know since 1930’s that it removes lactate more efficiently thanpassive recovery. Removal during exercise mainly due to oxidationby exercising muscle (80%), or splanchnic region (e.g. liver),cardiac muscle at rest. Best results if exercise between 40 – 60%V02 max (i.e. easy intensity)

When discussing the use and effectiveness of Compression Garments, the current level of scientific knowledge and practicecan be summed up as:

LOW

While the effects of hydrostatic pressure exerted on the body during Immersion may be beneficial, the Tempertaure of the water the body is exposed to is also thought to influence the success of such recovery interventions. Therefore, the main physiological effect of immersion in cold water is:

Increase circulation ( vasodilatation & constriction )


 Neurological stimulation ( hot / cold pressure )


- ?

The use of Cryotherapy (cold treatment) in the treatment of muscle damage and exercise-induced fatigue has been investigated with varying findings (Valie et al., 2010). Despite these findings the majority of research supports the notion that cold water immersion is NOT an effective treatment intervention for the reduction of symptoms associated with DOMS, repetitive high intensity exercise and muscle injury.

False

Contrast Water Therapy (hot/cold) has frequently been used as a recovery intervention in sports medicine and is now commonly used within the sporting community, although the physiological mechanisms underlying the reputed benefits remain unclear. It is suggested that to be effective the water temperatures should generally range from:

35 - 38; 10 - 15.5

Pool recovery sessions are commonly used by team sport athletes to recover from competition (Vaile et al., 2010). These sessions are typically used to reduce muscle soreness and stiffness. The researchers speculate that:

Performance of cold water immersion as a recovery procedure following exercise is better than performing no recovery procedure

An effective off-court/pitch training session to enhance the aerobic capacity of a team sport player would be:

Sports specific?

The typical exercise time and appropriate work:rest ratio during anaerobic training sessions to activate the glycolyticsystem would be?

1:3 - 1:5

The physiological adaptations to high-intensity training (HIT) include:

n ↑ Fat Oxidationn


↑ O2 enzymes in TII fibresn


↑ Glycolytic Enzymesn Greater VO2max


↑n ↑ performancen Faster HR recoveries

With regards to the player number and the intensity of small-sided games reported in the paper by Rampinini et al. (2006):

Based on effect size comparisons, Rampinini et al. (2006) concluded that the factor that had the greatest influence on the physiological responses to small-sided games was:

Encouragment

Aerobic and anaerobic training sessions can be performed both on- and off the court or pitch. Which of the following is correct?

A small-sided game is set up as part of a football team’s training session. The coach asks the players to play a 4 min, 3 v 3 game on a small pitch (12x20m). Despite shouting encouragement to the players during the game, at the end of the 4 min the coach notices that the players weren’t exercising above 90% HRmax. Which of the following variables would the coach change to increase the exercise intensity for the next SSG?

-
