10 second response

Age and injury status are which type of consideration when doing an FMA?

A) Behavioural

B) Physiological

C) Psychological

D) Sociocultural

B

100

What are the 4 dimensions of PA?

FITT (Frequency, Intensity, Time, Type)

100

Identify the fuel source used predominantly by the ATP-PC system.

Phosphocreatine (PC).

100

Identify one fitness component that would be most important for a marathon runner.

Aerobic Power

100

Define the training principle of frequency.

frequency.How often training sessions are performed per week.

200

Which is the correct application of Overload?

A) 8 x 40kg --> 12 x 40kg 

B) 10min run --> 12 min run

C) 80%1RM x 6 reps --> 88% 1RM x 6 reps

D) 20min run --> 19min run

C

200

There are 4 types of benefits PA can have on the body. What are they?

STEAL 200 from any team

Mental. Physical. Social. Emotional

200

What is a byproduct of the Aerobic system?

Double Points if you can get 2

Carbon Dioxide

Water

200

Define muscular strength.

The maximal force a muscle or muscle group can produce in one contraction.

200

Identify the main purpose of the warm-up phase of a training session.

To prepare the body for exercise by increasing blood flow, temperature, and joint mobility.

300

Which of the following is true about reactivity when assessing physical activity (PA)?

A. Physical activity levels alter due to knowing they are being assessed
B. Individuals accurately recall and report their physical activity levels.
C. Direct Observation is more reactive than recall surveys
D. Researchers observe physical activity without participants knowing they are being assessed.

A

300

Outline two sociocultural barriers Samantha (aged 40 with two kids) may face when accessing PA

Family

Gender stereotypes

Peer support

300

Explain why the anaerobic glycolysis system contributes more as exercise duration increases beyond 10 seconds.

PC stores deplete quickly, so the body switches to breaking down glucose anaerobically to produce ATP.

300

Explain why fitness testing should be both valid and reliable.

SWAP points with anyone

Valid tests measure what they claim to measure; reliable tests produce consistent results under the same conditions.

300

Explain how the principle of progression can be applied in an aerobic training program.

SWAP Points with anyone

Gradually increasing volume or intensity (e.g., running distance or speed) to continually challenge the body and improve fitness.

400

Which best describes the training principle of specificity?

A. Less improvements the more your exercise
B. Refers to how hard you are working
C. Doing exercises based in their interests and current state
D. Training mimics the demands of the sport

D

400

Which is the best method of assessment PA for a large group of people aged 20years old? WHY?

Questionnaire

400

Compare the rate and yield of ATP production between the aerobic and anaerobic glycolysis systems.

STEAL 400 from any team

Anaerobic glycolysis has a faster rate but lower yield; aerobic has a slower rate but higher yield of ATP.

400

Describe how direct observation can be used as a method of activity analysis.

A coach or observer watches a performance and records data on skill frequency, intensity, or movement patterns.

400

Describe one key feature and one benefit of resistance training.

Feature: use of weights or body resistance. Benefit: increases strength, power, or muscle mass.

500

Exercise intensities above the lactate Inflexion point (LIP) there will be a rapid increase in blood lactate levels due to:

A) an increase in aerobic ATP production

B) an increase in contribution from the ATP-PC system

C) the rate of lactate production exceeding removal

D) an increase in oxygen being delivered to the working muscles

Muscles (e.g., quadriceps, gluteals) contract to pull on bones via tendons, producing movement at joints such as the hip and knee.

500

Challenge: Choose someone to go head to head with.

There are 2 topics. In turns, list one term each (no repeating). 

2 topics-  training principles, fitness components

Winner gets all of their points

Oxygen is carried by haemoglobin in red blood cells, delivered to muscles, and used for aerobic energy production to meet energy demands.

500

A 400m sprinter experiences fatigue near the end of their race. Explain which energy system is dominant and why fatigue occurs.

Anaerobic glycolysis system dominates; fatigue results from accumulation of hydrogen ions lowering muscle pH and inhibiting enzyme activity.

500

Justify the selection of two specific fitness tests that would best assess a gymnasts flexibility and muscular strength?

Sit and reach and 7 stage situp test

500

Design a set of a specific training session (including method and principle) that targets muscular endurance which includes intensity, time/reps, exercise. Justify your choices.
