Study Notes
Fitness Training
- Components of fitness: cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, body composition
- Types of fitness training: aerobic, anaerobic, resistance, flexibility, plyometric
- Principles of training: overload, specificity, progressive overload, reversibility
- Methods of fitness training: weightlifting, cardio machines, bodyweight exercises, high-intensity interval training (HIIT)
Exercise Physiology
- Energy systems: ATP-PC, anaerobic glycolysis, aerobic respiration
- Physiological responses to exercise: increases in heart rate, blood pressure, ventilation, and body temperature
- Exercise intensity: measured by percentage of maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max), heart rate reserve, and rating of perceived exertion (RPE)
- Physiological adaptations to exercise: increased muscle strength and endurance, improved cardiovascular function, enhanced thermoregulation
Athletic Injuries
- Types of injuries: acute (e.g., sprains, strains), overuse (e.g., tendinitis, stress fractures), chronic (e.g., osteoarthritis)
- Causes of injuries: trauma, overtraining, poor biomechanics, inadequate warm-up and cool-down
- Injury prevention strategies: proper warm-up and cool-down, strengthening exercises, proprioception and balance training, equipment and safety measures
- Injury management: RICE (rest, ice, compression, elevation) principle, rehabilitation, and return-to-play protocols
Sport Psychology
- Performance anxiety: fear of failure, pressure to perform, self-doubt
- Motivation: intrinsic (e.g., enjoyment, personal growth), extrinsic (e.g., rewards, recognition)
- Goal setting: specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART) goals
- Mental skills training: visualization, positive self-talk, relaxation techniques, and concentration exercises
- Team dynamics: communication, cohesion, leadership, and conflict resolution
