motor learning
2. movement sports activities
3. principles of physical fitness (physical fitness; cognitive, social, and personal
development
4. the physical education program (professional knowledge and the physical education
program)
Name the five health related components of physical fitness. - Answers -1.
cardiovascular endurance (cardio)
2. body composition (body fat % and body fat :
muscle)
3. strength (muscle)
4. endurance (muscle)
5. flexibility
Physical fitness is different than wellness. What are the three components of wellness. -
Answers -1. understanding the human body functions
2. caring for and maintaining personal fitness
3. developing an awareness and knowledge of how certain everyday factors, stresses,
and personal decisions can affect your health
What are the 2 basic principles of personal training? - Answers -1. overload principle
a. specificity principle
b. progression principle
2. reversibility of training principle
What is the overload principle of training (working out)? - Answers -It is exercising at an
above normal level (pushing yourself) in any of three ways: frequency, intensity or time.
What is the frequency of training (working out)? - Answers -It is the number of times we
do a work out (training program) in a given period (i.e. three days per week).
What is the intensity of a work out (training)? - Answers -It is the amount of effort put
forth or the amount of stress placed on the body (i.e. push the limits versus playing it
safe).
What is time of a work out (training)? - Answers -It is the amount of time that passes
from the beginning of the work out to the end.
What are the interactions of the body systems in producing movement during strenuous
exercise? - Answers -Movement requires activation and control of the musculoskeletal
system and sustaining movement over extended periods of time, requires the
cardiovascular (circulatory) and respiratory systems. The heart beats faster and pumps
,the increased blood necessary to make the muscles (muscular system) work like a
motor. The energy for that motor is biochemical ATP (adenosine triphosphate). The
respiratory system helps to release the ATP from the fatty acids stored in the muscles.
The glycogen-lactic acid energy system (glycolysis) is extremely vital to the
performance of working muscles as it helps to produce ATP.
Provide a specific summary of how the body coordinates to adapt to exercise. -
Answers -1. Muscle cells use the available ATP they have
floating around in about 3 seconds.
2. The phosphagen system initiates and supplies
energy for 8-10 seconds.
3. If exercise continues longer, the glycogen-lactic
acid system (glycolysis system) kicks in.
4. Finally, if exercise continues, aerobic respiration
(oxidative system) takes over.
What are the 3 main energy systems that are used to power muscular activity (the
muscular system) and, basically, how do they work? - Answers -They are the
phosphogen, glycolysis, and oxidative systems and they all work by replenishing the
body's ATP so it can do more work.
What are the processes of the 3 main energy systems that are used to power muscular
activity--aerobic or anaerobic? - Answers -phosphogen = anaerobic
glycolysis = both aerobic and anaerobic
oxidative = aerobic
What is the function of the musculoskeletal system when it is challenged with physical
activity and exertion? - Answers -Movement requires activation and control of the
musculoskeletal system.
What general life factors should be considered in Physical Education because they
affect physical fitness and performance? - Answers -The effect of factors such as
gender, age, environment, nutrition, heredity, and substance abuse is crucial in
understanding adolescent fitness and performance.
How should gender be understood as affecting physical fitness and performance? -
Answers -Girls mature earlier than boys do, but boys quickly catch up and grow larger
and stronger.
How should age be understood as affecting physical fitness and performance? -
Answers -Age influences a child's physical strength, flexibility, and coordination.
How should good nutrition be understood as affecting physical fitness and
performance? - Answers -Good nutrition positively influences the quality of a child's
physical activity level, while poor nutrition has the opposite effect.
, How should environment be understood as affecting physical fitness and performance?
- Answers -Adverse environmental conditions such as high heat or poor air quality
strongly affect activity level.
How should heredity be understood as affecting physical fitness and performance? -
Answers -Students that inherit favorable physical characteristics will perform better and
with more ease than those who aren't so fortunate.
How should substance abuse be understood as affecting physical fitness and
performance? - Answers -Substance abuse of any sort--alcohol, tobacco, or drugs--is a
detriment to physical performance.
How can a Physical Education teacher deal more effectively with factors that are out of
a teacher's control like a great disparity in ability level or advantageous physical
characteristics? - Answers -A teacher can deal more effectively with factors out of his
control through structure and flexibility within that structure. The teacher can make
adjustments according to pairing or grouping or to the level of difficulty of the activity
itself. For example, a teacher can build structure by pairing or grouping students
according to their ability level or physical characteristics. However, if the pairing or
grouping isn't working, adjustments to the activity can be made. For example, changing
the frequency, intensity or time requirements of an activity or the distance a ball is
thrown by moving students closer to each other may help. If a task is too easy or not
challenging enough, add a personal challenge like seeing how many consecutive times
a throw can be made without dropping the ball. Also, having more advanced students
teach their peers that aren't as competent will benefit all students.
What are some ways to prevent injury to students in Physical Education? - Answers ---
health screening
--discipline (good sportsmanship; supervision)
--education about proper mechanics and use of equipment
--conditioning (increased participation in available out of school programs)
--safe equipment and environment (indoor/outdoor)
--emergency procedures in place
--footwear
--routines for warm ups (aerobic), stretching major muscle groups, ankle and knee
stretching and strengthening, and cooling down (if necessary)
What is the specificity principle of training (working out)? - Answers -It is focusing and
pushing yourself (overloading) on one of the five particular components of fitness during
a workout.
What is the progression principle of training (working out)? - Answers -In response to
the fact that the body will adapt to a particular workout (training method), it is the
principle that you have to increase the load (one of 3 ways) in order to further benefit by
your workout (training method).
