Core 1
Infant mortality, mortality, morbidity, life expectancy
What are the ‘measures of epidemiology’?
Frequency, Intensity, Time, Type.
What is “the FITT principle”?
Resistance, Weight and Isometric
What are the 3 types of "strength training"?
Convection, Radiation, Conduction, Evaporation
What is ‘Temperature Regulation
Talk, Observe, Touch, Active and Passive movement, Skills test
What is ‘TOTAPS?’
Lifestyle causes, more commonly affecting 35-90% of people with chronic disease, the onset of diagnosis is determined by diet & physical activity.
What is’ type 2 diabetes’?
400m sprint uses this energy system the most.
What is an example of a sport that uses the ‘lactic acid system’?
Acute and Chronic
Identify the two categories of "soft tissue injuries"
Pain-free, Mobility, Elasticity, Strength and balance
What are the indicators of ready to return to play?
Sharing of resources, knowledge and expertise, allowing issues to be addressed in a more comprehensive way
What are the benefits of ‘partnerships in health promotion’?
The training principle is applied when a swimmer does extra upper-body sessions to improve arm strength.
What is “specificity”?
Stimulates red blood cell production and allows for the absorption of more oxygen in the blood
EPO (Erythropoietin)
This energy system is the most efficient at producing ATP but is the slowest to supply energy during performance.
What is the ‘aerobic energy system’?
Oldest and simplest form of therapy that induces relaxation and reduces blood pressure, stress and anxiety levels
What is ‘massage’?
A marathon runner has a lower resting heart rate, higher stroke volume, and increased haemoglobin levels compared to before training.
What are “physiological adaptations” to “aerobic training”?
When planning to avoid overtraining, what is the physiological consideration that results from excessive volume without sufficient rest?
Lethargy
Involves stretching to reduce muscle tension and increase ROM, Conditioning to prevent muscle atrophy and total body fitness to deter effects of reversibility-
What is “graduated exercise (stretching, conditioning, total body fitness)”
The skill is characterised by inconsistent performance, frequent error and the need for conscious thought and external feedback for improvement.
What is the ‘cognitive stage' of skill acquisition?
Life expectancy is 67.2 years compared to 78.7 years for males and 72.9 years compared to 82.6 for females
What is the ‘difference between ATSI life expectancy and non ATSI life expectancy’
This occurs when a marathon runner trains at or above their aerobic threshold, leading to an enlarged + thicker left ventricle and an improved amount of blood leaving the heart each minute
What are “training thresholds” in improving “stroke volume” and “cardiac output”?
Phase 1 involves high pain, minimal function and swelling, Phase 2 involves elimination of debris and new fibres formed, Phase 3 involves remodelling and the possibility of high scar tissue
Inflammatory Response
Involves the consideration of temperature, humidity, wind, rain, altitude and pollution when determining its effect on athletes
What are “climatic conditions (temperature, humidity, wind, rain, altitude, pollution)”
