Strength


Muscular endurance


( also: agility, balance, power, reaction time )

Explain the fitness component: stamina ( CV endurance )

Being able to keep going / work at a steady pace over a long period of time and not feel tired

Explain the term speed

How quickly you can go from one place to another ( 100m sprint ) or how quickly a part can move ( fast arm in javelin )

Explain the term strength

The force of contraction if a muscle(s). How much you can pull, push or lift ( lifting a heavy weight or strength needed in rugby scrum )

Explain the term muscular endurance

How long a muscle(s) can work steadily over a long period if time ( distance cycling the muscles in leg work steadily over a long time )

Explain the term flexibility

How far you can bend or stretch.


The range of movement around a joint ( gymnast doing the splits )

Describe the fitness test for stamina ( CV endurance )

1. Cooper 12 run: use a 400m track or measure out a course to run. Run as many times as you can round the track in 12 minutes. Work out how many metres you have run and compare your result against the national averages. The table will tell you whether your stamina is excellent, good, poor etc for your age and gender

Describe another test for stamina ( CV endurance )

Multi stage fitness test: measure distance if 20metres and set cones at each end. You


need a CD player with the bleeps. Run between the cones making sure your reach and turn at the cone on the bleep. There are many stages in the test and as you go through each stage the gap between the bleeps gets shorter. The test is maximal and progressive ( starts easy and gets harder! ).


When you don't reach the cone at the bleep you stop and see the level you reached. Compare your result with national averages

Drugs


What of you know about steroids?

Steroids build up muscle. Steroids allow you to train for longer and do you can build up the body.


Sprinters, gymnasts, weight lifters may use steroids


Effects: stronger, faster, more powerful, aggression, mood swings, infertility, acne, hormone changes.....

Drugs


What do you know about stimulants?

Stimulants enable you to keep going for longer periods of time when training, performing - they stimulate you and keep you alert


Distance cycling, swimming, games players, athletes.....


Effects: keep going for longer periods of time so can train for longer and develop the body.


Eventually over tiredness, lack of coordination, focus and judgement

Drugs


What do you know about diuretics, beta blockers, narcotic analgesics ( pain killers )?

Diuretics: get rid of fluids from the body - jockey, boxers


Lose weight, dehydration


Beta blockers: calm the nerves, lowers HR - archery


HR and BP may go dangerously low


Narcotics: hides pain so you can continue to train when injured


All sports performers could take these


Could make the injury worse

Blood doping


Explain what blood doping is

Removal of red blood cells from your blood. Freeze the red cells. Your body will adapt to the lack of red cells and will gradually make more of these so your body is ' back to normal '. A week or so before competition inject back into your body the red cells you first removed. The body will have a higher number if red blood cells and as O2 is carried in the red cells there will be more O2 and therefore energy available for your sport

Describe the effects of taking drugs


Tip: when answering this Q you can discuss different drugs such as steroids, stimulants, diuretics, blood doping and can discuss the ' positives ' (!!!) and the negatives

Example: steroids are taken to build up muscle so a sprinter may become faster, stronger and more powerful in their training and competitions. However steroids effects hormones and fertility levels as well as the athlete becoming moody and aggressive.


Stimulants keep an athlete awake and alert which I'd beneficial when they are wanting to train for long periods or have to compete in distance events such as cycling or swimming. However the effects of tiredness will catch up and may cause the athlete to make poor judgements, lack focus and concentration.


Blood doping involves increasing the number of red blood cells so this will be advantageous for distance athletes such as marathon as they will have good stamina levels and will be able to keep going. However there are dangers of using needles to inject the cells / infections, clots and blood diseases such as aids / HIV. Also doping may affect vital organs such as heart, kidney or liver and could result in death

Family


How does the family encourage participation in physical activities and a healthy lifestyle?

1. Support you with words of encouragement

How can age affect participation ?

- When young you probably take part in a wide variety of sports to develop FMS and schools and clubs cater for young people


- is sport seen as a ' young persons activity? '


- young people take part on football, swimming, dance, games - opportunities available in the community


- When you are young you have no fear and will try any sport


- When young you are fit and healthy and well motivated to - participate


- When older less clubs and opportunities available to you


- When older you lack confidence so may not participate


- Few older role models


- When older your body could be ' tired ', fitness levels may be lower, ill, injury


- Older people have more time to participate due to retirement, concessions at clubs etc


- average life expectancy has increased so older people could take advantage of opportunities

Gender


How can gender affect participation?

- Some activities boys and girls can participate together especially very young children - swimming, gymnastics, athletics, games


- some sports men and women participate together eg mixed tennis


- Some sports such as gym, dance, netball - girls tend to participate where boys tend to play rugby, boxing, basketball and football - stereotypes, opportunities, role models


- Boys tend to be stronger than girls and are suited to certain sports such as rugby, weights and girls tend to be more flexible and do are suited to dance and gym


- Boys like to kick a ball around or shoot baskets during their free time and girls may like to socialise


- more males participate in sport than females


- At elite level males win more prize money

- Lack of suitable facilities - ramps, wheelchair access, wider doors ....can prevent participation


- Some people with disabilities may not be able bodied enough to participate in some sports


- Lack if confidence and self esteem can prevent participation


- Discrimination from others may prevent participation


- Increasing number of opportunities for disabled people now - facilities are improving thus encouraging participation


- More media coverage of disabled sport - Paralympics ...


- Role models to encourage participation


- A focus on what disabled CAN achieve


- Adaptation of sports so disabled can participate and perform


- Better understanding of the needs for disabled people, more coaches, more funding....

Consider also effects of alcohol consumption and smoking..... and the effects on participation and performance

Remember on all these responses link your answer to the question


Eg: make your point...... and so this will affect/limit/ encourage participation (PEE)
