Study Notes
PE Vision
- To develop capable and confident individuals who continue to prioritize healthy and active lifestyles beyond their academic years.
Competence and Confidence
- Competence: The ability to perform a task successfully and effectively.
- Confidence: A belief in one's abilities and qualities.
Fit to Lead
- Focuses on developing communication, cooperation, confidence, leadership, and tactical understanding.
- Activities include Badminton and Netball.
Fit to Perform
- Aims to enhance actions, skills, and techniques.
- Activities include Handball and Basketball.
Fit for Life
- Emphasizes the importance of a balanced, healthy, and active lifestyle.
- Activities include Health Related Fitness (HRF).
Warm-up
- A series of exercises performed before a workout session to prepare the body for physical activity.
- Reduces the risk of injuries.
Pulse Raiser
- The initial phase of a warm-up.
- Gradual increase in heart rate and body temperature.
- Examples: gentle jogging, skipping, slow swimming (for swimmers), short bike rides (for cyclists).
Dynamic Stretching
- Stretching performed while moving, taking the joint through its full range of motion.
- Examples: high knees, heel flicks, arm rotations, skipping, lunges, walking hamstring stretches.
Game Related/Skill Rehearsal
- The final phase of a warm-up.
- Practicing skills and movements specific to the game or activity.
- Examples: finger tag, stuck in the mud, splat, end-zone, passing drills.
Benefits of a Warm-up
- Increased muscle temperature: Improves muscle elasticity and flexibility, reducing the risk of injury.
- Increased heart rate: Speeds up oxygen delivery to working muscles.
- Increased flexibility: Enhances joint movement.
- Increased speed of muscle contraction: Improves muscle response time and quickness.
- Increased motivation: Focusing on the activity enhances performance drive.
- Increased concentration: Directs the performer's attention and focus on the activity.
- Increased confidence: Practicing skills in the warm-up builds confidence and improves reaction time.
Cool-down
- Easy exercises performed after an activity to help the body recover to a resting state.
Pulse Lowering (First part of cool-down)
- Gradual reduction in heart rate and body temperature.
- Example: slow walking or jogging.
Stretching (Second part of cool-down)
- Returns muscles used during activity to their normal length.
