Benefits of Flexibility:
*prevents injury
*improves posture
*maintains healthy joints
*increases speed and power of muscle contraction
*improves balance during movement
b. disadvantages:
*not always accessible
*limited value assessing
team sports
*not conducted in the
sport environment
2. Field Tests:
a. advantages:
*specific to the sport
*conducted in the
sporting environment
b. disadvantages:
*environment can alter
test results
*much planning in
testing administration
Factors Involved
progressive overload
specificity
reversibility/detraining

Benefits of a Warm-Up:
1. Increased speed of contraction and relaxation
of warmed muscles.
2. Reduces muscle stiffness (dynamic exercise)
3. Increase in muscle temp. reduces blood
viscosity and speeds nerve impulse rate.
4. Increase in oxygen uptake by muscles
5. Increase in enzyme activity to breakdown
glycogen.
6. Increases heart rate to a workable rate for
exercise.

Endurance as a
major
component
Resistance Training
*Strength Endurance
Greater reps. With
lighter resistance
Ex. 3 sets of 20 reps. @
50-60% of 1RM with
full recovery between
sets.
PNF Stretching
Step 1: move slowly through your ROM with a partner assisting the stretch
(passive stretch). Hold for a few seconds.
Step 2: just before the point of discomfort, isometrically contract the muscle
being stretched for 6-10 sec.
Step 3: After holding relax the muscle and have your partner stretch further
into the ROM.
A proprioceptive sensory nerve ending embedded among the fibers
of a tendon, often near the musculotendinous junction.
This stimulated the Golgi Tendon Organ (GTO) to further relax the
muscle, increasing the stretch.
GTO stretching
3. Dynamic Stretching:
consists of controlled
leg and arm swings that
take you gently to the
limits of your range of
motion.
4. Ballistic Stretching:
Repeated bouncing
motion at the peak of
a stretch to force the
muscle tissue to
lengthen. (NOT
RECOMMEDED).
I. Unsuitable Training
Undertraining: failure to provide adequate
stimulation.
Overtraining: do more training than
physically or mentally able to do over a
long period of time.
Overreaching: do more training than
physically able to do in a short period of
time. (temporary overtraining)

Heart Rate
Training Zones:
are calculated by
taking into
consideration your
max. heart rate and
your resting heart
rate.
MHR=220-age
Training Zones
MHR estimation
if you are breathing extremely hard
during a workout so that you cant
talk at all, youre probably within 5-10
bpm of your max heart rate.
