List the three Energy Systems.
Alactacid (ATP/PC) System Lactic Acid System Aerobic System

Define the difference between positive and negative motivation.
Positive motivation occurs when an idividual's performance is driven by previous reinforcing behaviours. Negative motivation is characterised by an improvement in performance out of fear of the consequences of not performing to expectations.

List the three stages of Skill Acquisition.
Cognitive stage. Associative stage. Autonomous stage.

List the two subpoints under the dot point MOTIVATION.
- Positive and Negative. - Intrinsic and Extrinsic.
200
List the four Types of Training
Aerobic Training Anaerobic Training Flexibility Training Strength Training
200
Define Intrinsic and Extrinsic Motivation.
Intrinsic motivation is motivation that comes from within the individual and extrinsic motivation occurs when the individual's internal state is modified by sources originating from outside the person.
200
Define Carbohydrate Loading.
Carbohydrate loading is the technique of loading the muscles with gylcogen in preparation for high-intensity endurance activity of more than 90 minutes.
200
List the five Characteristics of the Learner.
Personality. Heredity. Confidence. Prior Experience. Ability.
200
How many syllabus points are there in Core 2?
14
300
List the six Principles Of Training.
Progressive Overload Specificity Reversibility Variety Training Thresholds Warm-up and cool-down
300
Define State and Trait Anxiety.
State anxiety is characterised by a state of heightened emotions that develop in response to fear or danger. Trait anxiety refers to a general level of stress that is characteristic of each individual. It is a person's way of looking at situations and the stresses that may arise from their personal attitudes and personality.
300
Define Proactive Recovery.
Proactive recovery emphasises immediate refuelling and rehydration that continues until a pre-event state is obtained.
300
All skills have observable characteristics, so can be grouped according to specific criteria. List five of the nine ways skills are classified.
Open or Closed Skills. Gross or Fine Motor Skills. Discrete, Serial or Continuous Skills. Self paced or Externally paced skills.
300
Optimum arousal is a subpoint under which dot point.
Anxiety and arousal.
400
List five of the eight Physiological Adaptations in response to training.
Resting Heart Rate Stroke Volume Cardiac Output Oxygen Uptake Lung Capacity Haemoglobin Level Muscle Hypertrophy Effect of fast and slow-twitch muscle fibres
400
List the four Psychological Strategies to Enhance Motivation and Manage Anxiety.
Concentration/attention skills (focusing). Mental rehearsal/visualisation/imagery. Relaxation techniques. Goal setting.
400
List the five forms of Supplementation.
Vitamins. Minerals. Protein. Caffeine. Creatine Products.
400
List the six forms of Feedback.
Internal (or Intrinsic), External (or Extrinsic), Concurrent (or Continuous), Delayed and Knowledge of Results and Knowledge of Performance.
400
Assessment of skill and performance is the last dot point in Core 2. How many subpoints are there for this dot point?
4.
500
Discuss the difference between Isotonic and Isometric Strength Training.
Isotonic Training - participants raise/lower or pull/push free weights to contract/lengthen muscle fibres. Nearly all strength training is isotonic. Isometric Training - particpants develop strength by applying a resistance and using exercises in which muscle length does not change.
500
When stress builds within us, a stimulant hormone (adrenaline) is produced, which readies the body for action. It is characterised by five physiological responses. List three.
Increased blood supply to skeletal muscles. More oxygen to the lungs. Increased glucose production. Increased sweat production. Tightened muscles.
500
Recovery Strategies can be categorised into four areas. List them.
Physiological Strategies. Neural Strategies. Tissue Damage Strategies and Psychological Strategies.
500
Discuss Personal versus Prescribed Judging Criteria.
Personal criteria are the preconceived ideas or expectations that an individual brings to judge a performance. Prescribed criteria are established by a sports organisation or body and form the basis of assessment for competitions in that sport or activity.
500
Neural Strategies, eg. Cryotherapy is a subpoint under which dot point?
