Q 1 Why is there less participation of women in sports in India? Give any three
reasons.
Women & sports has been ignored since ages.even women scholars have not
taken any keen interest for the upliftment of women in sports. So the
participation of women in sports has been less in our country. The streo type
of social thoughts, male domination on the society,lack of recognition &
awards to women has been the reason for the less participation.
Women are still trailing behind men for their recognition & they are not able to
stand up.
Reasons are:
Less motivation. Due to lack of female role model in sports women are unable
to come into sports & games.
Q 2 Which sociological factor affect women participation?
Equality in society. Our society should accept females as equal & important
part of society. The discrimination of boy & girl should be banned.
Traditional role. He gender differencr in the society is one of the reason for the
females to be less in sports. It has been the traditional thinking that women
are meant for only kitchen work, or they can be a good housemaker. This type
of negative & streo type thoughts are the reasons for women’s lack of
participation in sports.

these are termed as dysfunction.
Q 4 What is ideology?
It refers to comprehensive vision of society for women & sports & helps to
benefit the society.

participation in sports after 1947.

Championship at London.
The IOC designed & alttered the rules & regulation of various games to
encourage women in sports.
‘The Indian social system does not approve women in sports’ this was said by
Mary Kom INDIAN Female Boxer.
Gender role orientation. It was thought that women should not participate in
sports because of the masculine effect she may get. Experts argued & agreed
to make sports equal for the females too.
Competitiveness & general achievement. Research suggest that male are more
competitive & do much better than females in competitive sports. Females are
more goal oriented & are creative & expressive like gymnastics.
Confidence & self esteem. The confidence level in female & male differ.
Studies have shown that female lack in confidence when compared to men. By
participating in intense physical activity women have improved a lot in their
self esteem & confidence.
Body image. Boys & males are more concerned about body image, but girls &
females are having a negative veiw about bodies & it is gender related.
Females are concerned about physical beauty & slim body, on the other hand
boys are concern about size strength & power.
Excessive loss of body weight resulting in the reduction of fat %. Female lose
10-15% of their total body weight & induce amenorrhoea. The reason is that
fat is the prime source of estrogen which is vital for normal menstural function.
Lack of financial help by Government. In India very less financial help is given
to educational institution by the governmrnt for promoting sports for females.
The infrastructure is also not according to the need of females. No special
scholarship or incentive is awarded to females.
Lack of personal & social security. The law & order problem is also a reason fpr
less participation of Indian women. Most facilities are out of the town area, so
women & girls are not allowed to go & take part in the training. Parents are
not willing to let girls participate.
Lack of sports culture. Our country lack in sports culture & it is believed that
girls & women are meant only for the kitchen work. Our children are made
couch potatoes in home, & sports are the last priority given at all the front.
Children are allowed to play at home or with computers.
Lack of access to facility. Males are given more facility in compared to females,

the test then the score is zero.
The subject lies in prone position, helper holds the chest with knees straight,
lift legs off floor & holds for 10 seconds. Scoring 0-10 depends upon the no of
seconds the person holds the correct position.
Description: In this the subject will pull up his body, so that the chin croses the
parallel bar & will get back to the normal posiyion. This has to repeated as per
the strength of the subject’s shoulder.
Girls will hold the bar & will lift themselves up & keep their chin up to the level
of parallel bar, hands will remain spread.
In this test the student will be asked to stand behind the line with feet
together. Students can bend & swing hands to get maximum force.
50 Yard dash: The student takes position in the start line. The command Gois
given by the starter. The score is done on the basis of time tkaen to cross finish
line. Time is noted to one-tenth of a second.
Shuttel Run.
50 yard dash.
Raising legs.
Floor touching.
ROCKPORT TEST.
The chair sit & reach test is a part of senior citizen test & is designed to test the
functional fitness of senoiors.
A few simple equipment are required like Ruler, Straight back chair about 17
inches in height.
The subjest sits on the chair edge. One foot remain flat on the floor. The other
leg is extended forward with knee straight, heel on the floor, ankle bent at 90`.
Place one hand on top of other with tips of the middle fingers even.
The subject is instructed to inhale & exhale, reach forward towards toes by
bending from hip. Keep the back straight & head up. Keep the knee straight &
hold the reach for 2 seconds.
Two trials are performed & score is to the nearest ½ inches or 1 centimeter as
in the negative or posiyive direction.
Measuring progress. It is the only tool to measure the progress of the trainee.
Motivation. Test are the motivational tool for every trainee. Pupil know their
draw back & limitation. On condition of fall in performance one can improve by
the progres chart.
LONG ANSWERS:
American alliance for health physical education & recreation. It was developed
in 1947 for evaluating the health & fitness of children in school in America. The
test consist of six battery that are to be performed in two days time.
Battery 1. Pull up for boys & flex arm hang for girls. This test is for the
measuring of muscular strength & endurence of arms & shoulder
muscles.while performing both have to do chin up over the horizontal bar.
Battery 2. Bent knee sit up. This test help us to understand the muscular
strength of the abdominal region. The time duration for the test is a minute.
The maximum score is noted.
Battery 3. Shuttle run. This test is performed to know about agility. Two
wooden block are given to students placed at starting line & finish line, the
runs is of 10 yards that is repeated for four times.the minimum time taken is
considered to be the best.
Battery 5. 50 Yard run. This test is for speed & explosive strength. The student
has to perform with maximum speed in the minimum possible time.
Battery 6. 600 Yard run /walk. This test is for knowing the cardio-vascular
fitness/endurence. The student has to run 600 yard in the shortest possible
time. Time is recorded in minutes/seconds.
The equipment required for this test is a20 inch high bench for men & 16 inch
for women & a stopwatch.
The subject step up & down on the platform at the rate of 30 steps per minute
for 5 minutes. On the condition of exhaustion the subject immediately sits
down & the heart beat are counted for 1.5, 2-2.5, & 3-3.5minutes.
The disadvantage of the test is if the individual is highly fit then the accuracy is
based on the individual pacing ability & motivational level.
Sit &Reach test is common for the measurement of flexiblity of lower back &
hamstring muscles.the test was deviced by Wells & Dillon in 1952.
This test help us to judge the flexiblity of hip region,lower back & hamstring
muscle.it also helps in curing lumbar lordosis & back pain.
For this test a wodden box with ruler fixed on top is required.
The subject sit on the floor, shoes & socks are to be removed. The subject sit
with leg strectched in front. The sole of the feet should be kept against box
(flat). Knee should not be bent & palms should be facing downwards. The
individual whose flexiblity is to be measured extend both the hand forward
along the measuring line on the box as far as he/she could. The finger tip
should remain equal in the same level. The full reach position should be held
for two seconds of time. The score is recorded to the nearest cm.
This test is simple to perform & know the flexiblity.
CHAPTER 8
PHYSIOLOGY & SPORTS
VERY SHORT ANSWER:
Q 1 Define Physiology.
Diet also effect the physical fitness & wellness. We must take balanced diet,
considering types of activity, age, gender, body weight, climate, diseases etc.
Stress tension & worries affect physical fitness of the individual. These
problems can be due to individuals personal problems or family problems that
affect fitness.
Increase heart rate. Increase stroke volume. Increase blood flow. Increase
blood preasure. Increase cardiac output.
It is the amount of air which an individual inhale & exhale with maximum
effort.
Q 8 List down physiological factors determining speed?
Cardiac output is the amount of blood pumped by the heart in one minute. It is
measured in litre/minute.
The ability to tolerate lactic acid in blood produced during anaerobic activity.
Better tolerence helps in delaying fatigue.
Q 15 What are the factors that affect the physiological system in old age?
Muscle size. Decrease due to age. Regular exercise slow the effect.
Develop fitness & wellness, Speed & Flexiblity, & increase cardiac output.
Increase tidal volume & vitality. Respiratory muscle brcomes stronger. Improve
metabolism. Second wind is avoided.
It is the amount of blood dispersed by per beat out of left ventrical increases.
It is measured in ML/BEAT.
Q 20 Write short term effect & long term effect of exercise on Cardiovascular
system.
Increase Heart beat, Stroke volume, Blood flow, Cardiac output.(Short term
effect)
Reduce risk of heart disease, Decrease resting rate, Increase Stroke volume at
rest, Increase blood volume.
Q 23 What is agening?
They are slow twitch muscles, can carry more Oxygen, helpful in aerobic
endurence. Higher amount of Red Muscles Fibres increase Endurence.
SHORT ANSWER:
As it is known that during exercise a lot energy is consumed which cells derive
by oxidising Glucose. Both has to be delievered by blood.the heart work harder
to pump more blood through the body. It beat faster to achieve higher cardiac
output.
The heart rate in an adult is about 70 beats /minute, but by training the basl
heart at rest come down to 28-40 beat per minute.it increase during exercise
to 220beat / minute.
By doing exercise the blood dispering per beat out of left ventricle increases. It
is measured in ML/PER BEAT by exercise it can increase to 60-110 mililitres
depending on the intensity of exercise in untrained individual. In trained
athlete the resting stroke volume 90-110ML/BEAT& can go up to 150-180 beat
in intense work.
It increase the blood flow is the short term effect of exercise in circulatory
system.
Increase tidal volume. With exercise the tidal volume & vital capacity increase
as chest expands more.
Improves metabolism. The metabolic reactions are faster in trained athlete for
energy production with less consumption of Oxygen. It gives less stress on
heart.
Faster recovery rate. Due to improved vital capacity & improved max Vo2 the
recovery after strenous exercise will be faster.
An individual should understand the ageing as natural & should adapt to the
changes.
Many changes that occur cause loss.these losses are often being in the early
adulthood.
Q 5 Discuss the gender difference on physiological parameters.
WEIGHT. Males are heavier then females of same height. A good posture
contributes to physical fitness.
HEIGHT & WAIST. Male are taller then female. The waist of men are large then
women. Women have broader waist.
STRESS & TENSION. Stress Tension & worries affect physical fitness.of
individual. These problems are due to individual’s problems. These Stress
Tension & Worries affect Psychological & Physiological fitness.
INCREASE TIDAL VOLUME. The tidal volume & vital capacity of lungs increase
by regular exercise.
IMPROVES METABOLISM. In trained person the reactions are faster for energy
production with less consumption of oxygen.
VITAL CAPACITY INCREASE. In a normal adult the vital capacity is about 3500cc
to 4500cc, but in a trained athlete it raises upto 5500cc.
FASTER RECOVERY RATE. Due to improved vital capacity & improved max Vo2
the recovery rate after the exercise is faster.
CONTROLS EXTRA FAT. Regular exercise help to maintain body fat & fitness.
Exercise help to burn fat & maintain percentage of fat. Regular paticipation
burns calories.
REACTION TIME. When we perform exercise regularly then the ability to react
quickly increase.
MUSCLE HYPERTROPHY. The shape size & the cross section area of muscle
improves by regular exercise.
Speed is the ability to do work faster rate. It consist of three part Reaction
time, Accerleration, & speed of movement. It also depend on strenght,
endurence, flexiblity & co-ordinative ability.
Speed depend om percentage of fast twitch & slow twitch muscles. It is also
with the neuromuscular responses of an individual ie basic responses.flexiblity
to a large extent play its role. The ATP energy store is responsible for the relese
of energy. Faster the relese the better speed.
MAXIMUM OXYGEN UPTAKE. Vo2 max refers to the highest rate at which
oxygen can be taken up & consumed by body during intense exercise. Thus the
mitchondria improve & produce energy for the muscle.
PLUMONARY DIFFUSION. It is the exchange of oxygen & carbon dioxide
between lungs & blood. Faster diffusion increases Endurence.
BLOOD VOLUME & FLOW. Endurence activity need sufficient amount of oxygen
& nutrients which are transported by blood. Regular training & exercise
increase thr % of RBC & blood plasma thus boosting endurence.
LONG ANSWER:
HYPERTROPHY OF HEART. With regular exercise the heart expands & thus
increase the stroke volume.
RESTING PULSE INCREASE. Due to increased cardiac output the basal rate
decrease & the resting heart rate increase, so the heart does not get stressed
in normal work.
FASTER ADAPTATION TO WORK LOAD. The heart can adapt to any load if the
individual is trained i.e there is a quick adjustment of the load.
RETURN TO NORMAL PULSE. The pulse come back to normal after the exercise
quickly & body feel relaxed.
CHAPTER 9
SPORTS MEDICINE.
SHORT ANSWERS.
To provide rehablitation.
Q 4 Explain the scope of sports medicine?
Sports injuries are: Soft tissue Injuries, Joint & Bones Injuries.
Safe envvironment, Prevent accident & health problems, & Full opportunity for
growth & development.
The mobilty of the damaged bone should be prevented. Patient should be kept
in comfortable position. Reduce the inflamation by ice-pack so that pain can be
relieved.
Skin injury.
Q 13 What is Abrassion?
Q 14 What is Sprain?
It is the injury of the ligament at the joints, like wrist joint , ankle joints. It
happens due to over strecthing of the ligament or due to twist.
Q 15 What is Dislocation?
It is the injury in the joints of bone caused due to the displacement of bone
from the place of it’s junction.
Q 16 What is fracture?
The aims of sports medicine is to maintain & sustain & to regain the peak of
Physical fitness. It is : Scientific Promotion of sports & games.
Specific fitness.
Conditioning exercise.
It is the injury iof the muscle which is caused by the stress over the muscle or
due to pull.
Treatment of Strain:
Fracture. It is the injury on the bone where by due to the impact, the bone get
broken into partial /complete breakage.
Rehabilitation. After the intial treatment of the injury the complete recovery is
gained by rehabilitation, whereby the injured perform various rehabilitation
exercise for the improvement of muscles & joints. It should be performed in a
progressive & regular manner.
Treatment. Avoid friction further & protect against infection. Clean the injured
part with cold & clean water. Apply antiseptic. Dress the injured part. An anti
tetnus injection can be given.
Treatement of dislocation.
The aims of sports medicine is to maintain sustain & to regain the peak of
physical fitness.
Compound fracture. In compound fracture the skin & muscles get damaged
along with the bone. Normally the broken bone comes out of the skin.
Comminuted fracture. In this fracture the bone is broken into two or more
parts. This type of fracture is common in cycling.
Green stick fracture. The most common fracture in chikdren. As the bone are
soft they bend.
Avoid training under condition of fatigue. Load should be increased as per the
increase in strength. Training area & competetion area should be specific.
Right equipment to be used. Warm up should be done properly & cooling too.
Do not use the same type of training surface. Regular in activity. Pay attention
to diet & nutrition. Stay away from infection & pollution.
Q 10 What are sports injuries? What are the principles to prevent sports
injuries.?
A sports injury is defined as the stressful situation that arise due to over
excertion of the individual that prevent him/her for further participation, &
make the person undergo a recovery phase. Sports injury can be on the tissue
or on the bones. It is classified as Traumatic injury. Overus injury.
a. Proper warm up. A good warming of the body is essintial for an athelet
to participate in the best possible way. It make body active & fit for the
activity.
b. Medical check up before. A good & proper medical check up is essintial
before the event/participation, so that the knowledge helps in taking
care & to use preventive nethod.
c. Safety gaurds & equipment. The equipment & condition should be
checked, this help in prevention of injury along with safety.
d. Proper concentration.alertness of the player is a must
e. Proper skill. Conditioning & skill is required for good
participation.regular conditioning help in the prevention ofinjury. It
increase the fitness.
Sprain is a injury related to the ligaments of the humsn body. The treatement
is done with RICER method. Rest to the player & restrict the movement.
After two days apply anti inflamation cream for the reduction of swelling.
Massage the area gently.
CHAPTER 10
KINESIOLOGY,BIOMECHANICS & SPORTS.
VERY SHORT ANSWER:
Q 1 What is Projectile?
Motion along with the straight line with all body parts moving in same
direction.
Q 4 What is Work?
Work done by a body is the product of force acting on that body &
displacement made by that body in the direction of force. W= F.S.
Q 5 What is Energy?
Energy=======Work
Q 6 What is a Friction?
Friction is the force that oppose a body while in motion or at rest. It is the
force in between two surface in contact when one moves over other. Friction is
produced due to roughness of the surface in contact.
It is a force of friction that appears when one body slides or tries to slide over
the surface of some other body.
It is the energy pocessed by a body due to its position above or below the
surface of earth.
It is the energy pocessed by the body due to its motion of any type.
K.E.=1/2 mv2
But during double swing phase in running both the feet remain off the ground.
Q 13 Explain Mechanical Analysis.
It is a process to identify the laws & principles applied to give the correct
execution of the given movement or skill.
This phase starts from the movement of foot,when the heel touches the
ground until it is directly under the body’s centr of gravity. The COG is almost
located in the pelvic area of the lower spine while walking.
HEIGHT OF THE PROJECTILE. The more level of release of projectile, the greater
is the distance covered because the higher the projectile is released the longer
it will be in air.
Q 2 What is Potential & Kinetic Energy?
KINETIC ENERGY. It is the energy possessed by a body due to its motion of any
type. If there is no motion of a body, it does not posses any Kinetic Energy.
Stationery bodies have PE & moving bodies have KE.
KE= 1/2mv2
Projectile motion of the bodies that have been projected into the air. It occurs
with cosiderable frequency in physical education & athletics.
Q 4 Explain the Frictions. How many types of Frictions are there? What are the
advantages & disadvantages of Friction?
Friction is the force that work against a body automatically in between two
surfaces. Forces of friction always tries to oppose the motion of the body.
Types of friction.
SLIDING FRICTION: It is the force of friction that appears when one body slides
or tries to slide over the surface of some other body.
STATIC FRICTION: It is the force that a body pocesses in a static condition.
We cannot move without friction. Like it is esy to move over floor then to a
polished floor.
Vechicles cannot move without friction on the ground. A wet surface on rainy
days has less friction.
Biomechanics is defined as the science ,that deals with the applications of the
mechanical laws on the human body in relation to sports & locomotion. Sports
biomechanics deals with movement of the athlete & the forces that are acting
over them. It also helps to study the effect of these laws on the movements of
the athlete.
FUNCTIONS OF BIOMECHANICS:
Technical equipment like Pole, Rackets, Javline, Bow & Arrow, etc.
Isaac Newton developed laws of motion, & in sports these laws are applicable.
Example a football will remain in motion or at rest until a player does not kick
or stop it.
THIRD LAW OF MOTION. Every action has an equal & opposite reaction.
Example when a sprinter pushes his foot against the starting block, the block
exert an equal force for the forward movement of the athlete. The same is
applicable in Swimming, Rifle shooting etc.
CHAPTER 11
PSYCHOLOGY & SPORTS
VERY SHORT ANSWER.
Sports Psychology is the scientific study of person & their behaviour in sports
& the practical application of that knowledge.
Q 2 What is Anxiety?
Q 3 What is Motivation?
Q 4 What is Stress?
Q 5 What is Development?
The word personality is derived from latin word ‘Persona’ which means
‘Masks’. Personality is the integration of a human being at any stage of his
development.
Body image is how & what you think about your body.
It is how you value yourself as a person. It is the real opinion about self.
An Motivation instinct that arise due to some External factors that comples the
person to do the work.
Q 13 What is Personality?
Coping refers to the thoughts & actions that we usually do in dealing with any
situations that are threatening.
Growth refers to the physical dimension of a person that can be seen &
measured like height, weight, etc.
Ethics are set of principles that are for the right conduct in the sports field. So
it is the ideal conduct in the field by any athlete.
Extrinsic: Any force that helps you to do the work that you may desire or not is
Extrinsic Motivation as it produces behavioural change. They are of various
types like:
The word Adolescence is derived from the latin word ‘adolesceker’ which
means to ‘grow to maturity’. It is a period of uncertinity. Generally it is the age
from 12-18 years of age. The age is marked by number of physical &
phsiological changes. During this period there is a lot of hormonal & glandular
changes.
‘Adolescence is the period of great stress & strain, strom & strife’. Stanley Hall.
PHYSICAL. During this period of life they face many problems particularly the
bodily changes that takes place during this time. Females start having their
maturity & have their menses & in male they have their nightfall problem
which is a normal phenomena in their life. This is due the development of sex
gland in their body. Adolesecnt feel rest less due to these changes.
SELF SUPPORT PROBLEM. Each & every adolsescent needs self support. They
like to make their own identity in the society & like their desire to be fulfilled.
SOCIAL PROBLEM. Adolescent want to adopt their own way in the society, but
due to the social customs & beliefs it becomes an hinderence in their life. So
they revolt against the society. Friends become more important to them in this
stage of life. They share their veiws & ideas more with their friends. Sometimes
this is the reason for them to develop bad habits & they have dissatisfaction in
them. They fall prey of drugs alcohol & smoking. Institution & family should
guide these adolescent.
MENTAL PROBLEM. This age a lot of stress tension & strife prevails with the
adolescent & it creates a lot of mental problems. An adult feel difficult in
cooperating with others, maladjustment etc, they live in Anxiety more.
AGGRESSIVE BEHAVIOUR. Children show more aggresiveness in their
behaviour. On small-small matter they become too hyper in their behaviour.
They get irritated easily, when they are said to do certain work/activity. They
have repulsive behaviour & tries to be the hero in themselves.
STABILITY & ADJUSTMENT. They face adjustment problem & becomes instable.
There is a constant change in the behaviour. Due to maladjustment in the with
others, the child is unable to cope up with family. Child feels to be under
constant preassure from the family. They like to have free atmosphere.
SEX RELATED PROBLEMS. During this period children faces a lot of problem
that are related to sex. They have attraction towards their opposite sex,
sometime they get restless & leave their family. This is due to their own sex
related problems.
Management of Anxiety.
Sports person who has the fear of failure in the field & out surely have a high
level of Anxiety when they face competetions. Coaches & the PE teachr should
try to reduce the fear in the athlete by making them over come the fear for the
winning & success.
Sports person who have high level of trait anxiety tend to experience high
levels of state anxiety when in situation of competition. Coaches should be
cognizant of individual’s trait anxiety so that they be aware of how individual
will likely be respond in competetive situations. In this way they may be able to
adjust the level of anxiety & arousal in the optimum level.
Sports & games occupy a good amount of time in the life of people. Its effect
are positive & negative, & sometimes very significant. Give ample
opportunities to learn ethical values. It depends on the goals philosphy of
training , the coach , the trainee, players & spectators, & the outlook of
parents.
IMPROVE SELF ESTEEM. Person gais confidence & develop positivity in life as
he does exercise.
IMPROVE BODY IMAGE. Exercise develops good & healthy body image &
improves personality.
HIGH ENERGY. An individual feel energetic & his life style changes.
STABILISES EMOTION. Emotions are the traits that makes an individual weak.
Exercise helps in controling over emotion, & helps oneself to live healthy.
IMPROVES HEALTH. Good health is a part of personality. Sports & games helps
in the development & improvement.
IMPROVES SOCIAL HEALTH. Games & sports helps in developing the the
qualities like friendship, togetherness, co-operation, coordination, team work
etc.
CONTROLS OVER EMOTIONS. Games & sports helps in the proper development
of personality & to have control over emotions. It helps in the balancing of the
personality.
CHANGES PSYCHOLOGICAL BEHAVIOUR. Games & sports helps an individual to
be active. It helps him/her to change the veiw, attitude, thoughts, ideas, &
response. The individual becomes full of positive thoughts & this makes a
change.
IMPROVES SELF ESTEEM. Playing improves one’s self respect & confidence. It
helps to accept success & failure in the right way.
DEEP BREATHING. Stress & Anxiety can be controlled through deep breathing.
Yogic Pranayam like Anulom Vilom, Kapal bhati are effective way to control.
DRINK WATER. Water reduces Anxiety level. It reduces stress & anxiety by
making the blood calm.
FOLLOW ADVICE. Always follow the advice of expert& take suggestion &
guidence. Avoid multitasking & multi-suggestions from those who are not
expert.
WARMING UP. Perform good warm up activity before the stressful activity as it
reduces stress & prepare for the activity mentally & physically.
NO CRITICISM. Always remember not to criticise any one or anything as it leads
to varied Anxiety.
*In this chapter self esteem & body image, Psychological benefits of Exercise
have been excluded.
CHAPTER 12
TRAINING IN SPORTS
SHORT ANSWER.
The word Training means the process of preparation for some task. This term is
widely used in the field of games & sports.
Active flexiblity is the ability to do movement for longer distance without any
external help.
The specilised process for the all round development of an individual for the
preparation of sportsperson for the improving the performance in games &
sports.
These are those exercises in which the movement is not seen or visible as
there is no direct movement & so it cannot be observed.
Isotonic exercise are those exercise in which movement can be seen directly.
Like free hand exercise.
Exercise in which the movement is experienced with tension in the extensor &
flexor muscles are called Isokinetic exercise.
Q 9 What is flexiblity?
The range of movements a body can perform is called flexiblity. Individual with
good flexiblity does not experience fatigue & is blae to do all the work well.
Q 11 What is Speed?
Q 15 What is Fartlek?
Q 17 What is Endurence?
The ability to act against Maximum resistence, not used in majority sports.
THE PRINCIPLE OF SPECIFICITY. Specific exercise for specific part only develop
that muscles formaking it better.
Speed means the velocity in which an can execute his movements. The
following methods are used to develop speed.
PACE RACES. Pace races means running the distance at constant speed. In this
the athlete runs at uniform speed. Normally middle distance races like 800 m
or above the pace race method is used. It helps in conserving energy for the
athlete. Like 800 m is clocked at 1 minute & 40 seconds so accordingly the
speed in 400 m, 49 seconds & the next in 51 seconds. This is called pace race or
pace run.
COOLOING DOWN. The process in which light exercises are done to make the
muscles come back to normal condition. These exercises helps in reducing the
temperature of the body & to bring in normal condition.
Fartlek is a swedish word which means speed run/play. This was introduced by
O.Astrand & Gosta Halner. In this there is no set or pre-planned method of
doing things. The athlete are free to do this as per their comfort. Self discipline
is very important in this method of training.
The ability of the joints for thr range of movement or in other word the
maximum movement that can be done is flexiblity.
Passive flexiblity. When the flexiblty movement is performed by with the help
of other person it is called as passive flexiblity.
STATIC STRECTHING METHOD. This involves gradual stretch position & holding
the position. The amount of time depend upon the individual. It is a part of
cooling down of the body. The time duration for this should vary from 10-30
seconds. It is also advised that one should move to further stretching position.
DYNAMIC STRETCHING METHOD. It consist of controled leg & arm swing that
takes you gently to the limit of range of motion. Where the event require
dynamic movement it is advised to do dynamic stretching. The speed of the
motion should gradually increase.
KINESTHETIC ABILITY. The ability that enables to realize kinesthetic & dynamic
features of movement.
RHYTHM ABILITY. The ability to grasp motor movement & expresses that
movement in a very co-ordinative way with graceful action.
Bikia the famous athletic coach introduced this method in 1920. He stressed on
the importence of rhythm between work & rest in this method & called it
TTERRACE TRAINING. For athlete of 400 m race the following example can be
applicable for this training.
ADVANTAGES:
It helps in developing high level of static strength & maximal strength, thus
effective for total muscular strength.
DISADVANTAGES:
*High Altitude Training Introduction & impact is deleted from the course.
