Examples:
Sprinting, athletics field events, gymnastics, weight lifting.
What are the 5 measures of epidemiology?

Outline the 3 different levels of government
Local - govern specific geographical areas and focus on planning and development of that LGA
State / Territory - have power to pass on laws or matters that fall within thweir state or territory.
Federal - regulate matters of national improtance. All governments work together to achieve common goals.
Name 3 purposes of fitness testing
- Identifies strengths and weaknesses
- Informs training program design to target specific areas.
- Monitors progress over time.
- Sets performance benchmarks.
- Predicts performance in some sports (limited)
Heart rate during exercise:
What is it? What is its response and what triggers this response? Do trained or untrained athletes have a lower resting heart rate?
Beats per minute

Rights
Name 4 Sustainable Development Goals that are related to improving the health and wellbeing of Australians
SDG3 - Good health and wellbeing (reducing premature mortality)
SDG4 - Quality education
SDG10 - Reducing inequalities
SDG11 - Sustainable cities and communities
Name the 4 different types of aerobic training
Continuous, Fartlek, Circuit, Aerobic Interval Training
Explain the interplay between energy systems during a mixed sport like triathlon
Swimming - primarlity aerobic, but anaerobic systems contribute to initial bursts of speed.
Cycling - Aerobic system dominates, with short bursts of anaerobic effot for hill sprints.
Running - A mix of aerobic and anaerobic systems, with aerobic dominance for most of the race and anaerobic bursts for hills or final sprint.
What are the 5 categories of determinants that influence the health and wellbeing of Australians?
Broad features of society
Environmental factors
Socioeconomic factors
Health behaviours
Biomedical factors
provide an example of how SDG4 is implemented in Australia to improve the health of Australians.
Example - Mandatory PDHPE from K-10 teaching students about respectful relationships, impacts of drug use, nutrition, physical activity and mental health providing young people with the tools to make positive informed decisions about their health.
Identify the dominant energy system for these activities - Soccer, Javelin throw, Bench press (10 reps), 200m sprint
Soccer - Aerobic dominant, with bursts of Glycolytic for sprints and tackles.
Javelin throw - ATP-PC (dominant) for initial explosive movement.
Bench press - Glycolytic system (dominant) for multiple repetitions at high intensity.
200m sprint - Glycolytic (dominant) for maximal effort
For the aerobic energy system - name the fuel source, efficiency, duration, intensity, recovery, cause of fatigue and example of a sport that uses it predominantly.
Fuel - carbohydrates, fats, protein (sparingly)
Efficiency - efficient
Duration - Continuous for well over an hour (limited by glycogen stores)
Intensity - Low to moderate
Recovery - 12 - 48 hours
Fatigue cause - depletion of glycogen stores
Example - long-distance running
