Mr Munnery

SocialSocial – Meet people, make friends. - Co – operation, competition,

physical challenge, aesthetic appreciation.

MentalMental – Relieve stress and tension and stress related illness.

PhysicalPhysical – Improve body shape, good health,

“Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well – being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity”.

“the ability to meet the demands of the environment”.

Your environment = your life and the things you do in it.

“ a form of physical activity done primarily to improve one’s health and physical fitness”.

“how well a task is completed”.

Cardio vascular fitness Muscular strength Muscular endurance Flexibility Body composition (A lack of any of these components

will have a negative effect on your health).

C.V. fitness is “the ability to exercise the entire body for long periods of time”.

Muscular Strength is“The ability to apply force and overcome resistance”.

Muscular Endurance is “The ability to use muscles,many times without getting tired”.

Flexibility is - “The range of movement at a joint.”

Body composition is - “The percentage of body weight which is fat muscle and bone.”

These are the components of fitness which determine which sports you will be good at. They do not affect health.

Agility – to change direction at speed. Balance – retain centre of mass over

base of support. Co – ordination – to use two or more

body parts together

Power – strength performance quickly Reaction Time - “The time between the

presentation of a stimulus and the onset of movement.”

Speed - “How fast your body can move over a short distance”.

Specificity – the activity/ training done must match the outcomes that you want to achieve.

Progression – start slowly and build up gradually.

Overload – making your body systems work harder than normal.

Reversibility – when you stop training you lose the fitness built up.

Tedium

Frequency – How often? Intensity – How hard? Time – How long? Type – What you do. 3miles 15mins 3 times 4miles 20mins 3 times 4miles 20mins 4

Circuit Weight Interval Continuous Fartlek Cross

Isotonic Isometric

Warm up: Pulse raisers, stretches, mobilising joints.

Main activity: skills, drills, tactics.

Cool down: to remove lactic acid and repay oxygen debt.

Increased heart rate, breathing rate, body temperature, blood flow to working muscles.

Bones – become denser. Joints – remain mobile – increased

production of synovial fluid lubricates the joints.

Muscles – get stronger and can contract with more force.

Cardiovascular system – increased stroke volume, increased cardiac output, heart muscle gets thicker/ stronger.- Decreased resting heart rate.

Respiratory system - Vital capacity increases.

More alveoli become surrounded by capillaries so gas exchange is more efficient.

As a result of this we can work for longer before tiring (aerobically).

This is the length of time it takes our heart rate to return to normal after we finish exercising.

Maximum heart rate = 220 – age Training/ target zones are calculated

using this equation. Less than 60% MHR = Recovery zone 60 – 80% MHR = Aerobic training

zone 80 - 90% MHR = Anaerobic training

zone. 90 – 95% MHR = Speed training zone.

Carbohydrates – Used for energy. Fats – Used for energy too but much

slower release (aerobic activities). Protein – Build cells and repair

tissues. Vitamins and minerals – each has

their own use. Fibre – cannot be digested so is good

for digestive system. Water – Athletes must replace fluids

lost through sweat to prevent dehydration.

Endomorph – lots of fat

Mesomorph – lots of muscle

Ectomorph - skinny

Overfat = More body fat than you should have.

Obese = People who are very overfat. Overweight = Having weight that is in

excess of normal. This is not harmful unless the extra weight is made up of excess fat.

Nicotine – cigarettes. Nicotine, tar and carbon monoxide. Affects sports performance by getting less oxygen to working muscles so tire easily.

Alcohol – affects co – ordination, balance , reaction time.

Stimulate circulatory and nervous systems.

Can work hard for long periods of time without feeling pain & fatigue.

Dangers: Ignoring pain & fatigue can lead to injury.

Examples include: amphetamines, speed, cocaine.

Pain killers. Dangers: Ignoring pain & fatigue can

lead to injury. Very addictive. Examples: morphine, heroin, codeine

Hormones that help build & repair muscle.

Dangers: If you take artificial hormones your body stops making its own. Causes aggression, infertility, cancer, growth of facial hair & deepening voice in females.

Examples: testosterone.

Increase the amount of water excreted in urine.

Misused by boxers & jockeys who need to lose weight to make the correct weight.

Block the effect of adrenaline. Calm athletes nerves. (Archery,

shooting) Dangers: reduce blood pressure, can

cause depression.

Increasing the number of red blood cells.

Red blood cells carry O2. Increasing O2 helps endurance athletes perform better for longer.

Blood is withdrawn and red blood cells extracted & frozen. Immediately before the event they are injected into the athlete.

Dangers: Infection & blocked capillaries.

Athlete’s foot – fungus between toes. Spread by contact or on wet floors.

Athletes foot powder cures it. Verruca – is a wart on the sole of the

foot. Spread by contact or on wet floors. Treated by creams or by a chiropodist.

Rules Correct clothing/ footwear Protective clothing/ equipment e.g. shin

pads, gum shields, post protectors. Warm up and cool down Balanced competition – Same age,

sex, skill level/ grade, weight.

Rest Ice – constricts blood vessels Compression – i.e. Tight bandage Elevation – lift high then it is harder

for blood to flow there. Use RICE for soft tissue injuries i.e.

strains and sprains.

Fractures – breaks or cracks in bone. Dislocation – a bone out of place at a

joint. Tennis and golfers elbow – joint injury –

over use. Knee cartilage – torn – joint injury. Dehydration – loss of too much body

fluid. Hypothermia – core body temperature

too low.

Danger – check for danger to self & casualty

Response – shout and shake

Airway – clear any obstruction

Breathing – ear close to mouth, watch for rise and fall of chest.

Circulation – have they got a pulse?

If casualty is not breathing and has no pulse, first phone the ambulance, then give two breaths and fifteen chest compressions until help arrives.

These chest compressions do the same job as the heart in pumping blood to vital organs.(You are not really trying to start the heart).

If the casualty is breathing and has a pulse (but are unconscious), place on their side in the recovery position and keep checking they are breathing & have pulse until help arrives.

This keeps airway clear.

The heart acts as a pump in a double circulatory system.

Imagine that the two sides of the heart are separated.

The right side always deals with de – oxygenated blood & sends it to the lungs.

The left side always deals with oxygen rich blood and sends it round the body.

Vena cava Right atrium Tricuspid valve Right ventricle Semi lunar

valves Pulmonary

artery Lungs

Pulmonary vein Left atrium Bicuspid (mitral)

valve Left ventricle Semi lunar

valves Aorta Body

The septum is the wall of muscle that separates the two sides of the heart to prevent the de oxygenated and oxygenated blood from mixing.

Heart rate – the number of times the heart beats each minute.

(Pulse) This will decrease the fitter you are. Stroke volume – the amount of

blood pumped out of the heart with each beat.

This will increase the fitter you are as the muscle walls of the heart will get stronger and pump out more blood with every beat.

Cardiac output – the amount of blood ejected by the heart in one minute.

This will increase the fitter you are because the stroke volume increases.

Cardiac output = heart rate X stroke volume

Arteries Veins No valves Have valves Go away Go towards heart Narrow lumen Large lumen High Pressure Low Pressure Thick muscle Thin muscle Mainly oxygenated Mainly

deoxygenated

Thin (one cell thick) Exchange gases (see respiratory

system).

Red blood cells – transport oxygen from lungs to tissues (Haemoglobin).

Plasma – Transport carbon dioxide from tissues to lungs ( and glucose and mineral salts to tissues).

Platelets – help in blood clotting (forming scabs)

White blood cells – Immune system, defence against disease.

Air is breathed into the nose, where it is filtered by cilia (tiny hairs) and warmed and moistened by mucus.

The epiglottis (a small flap of cartilage) stops food going into the windpipe instead of the gullet.

The larynx is the voice box.

The windpipe or trachea is a flexible tube held open by rings of cartilage.

The lungs are soft and spongy and are in a space called the thoracic cavity.

The pleural membrane is a slippery skin that protects the lungs as they rub against the ribs.

The ribs protect the lungs. Intercostal muscles in between the ribs help us breathe in and out.

In the lungs, the trachea branches into two bronchi. Each is a bronchus.

The bronchi branch into smaller bronchioles.

The bronchioles end in bunches of tiny air sacs called alveoli. Their walls are thin so gases can pass through them.

Gaseous exchange takes place in the alveoli of the lungs.

Capillaries (are one cell thick) surround the alveoli. The oxygen from the lungs pass into the capillaries and this then goes back to the heart to be pumped round the body.

The carbon dioxide passes from the blood into the lungs and is then breathed out.

Substance Amount inhaled

Oxygen 21% 17%

Carbon dioxide

Nitrogen 79% 79%

Water little more

Is also called respiration.

Breathing in is called inspiration.

Breathing out is called expiration.

Tidal volume: The amount of air you breathe out in one breath.

Respiratory rate: how many breaths you take in one minute.

Vital capacity: the maximum amount of air you can breathe out, after breathing in as deeply as you can.

Tidal volume X respiratory rate =minute volume

(the amount you breathe in one minute).

Inside the womb, bones start life as cartilage.

Over the years this turns into bone in a process called ossification.

Periosteum – grows around the cartilage. Controls the shape & thickness of the bone.

Bone cells appear at the end of bones – the growth plates or epiphyseal plates.

The epiphysis is at the end of the bone.

The diaphysis is the shaft (length) of the bone.

Cartilage – prevents bones rubbing together. Becomes thicker with exercise.

Compact bone - hard and strong, it protects the bone from breaking. Becomes thicker with exercise.

Marrow cavity – contains bone marrow. With exercise the production of red and white blood cells is speeded up.

Spongy bone – helps with shock absorption. This increases through exercise.

Shape / support– The bones form a framework to support the body. Different length and thickness of bones determine our shape.

Protection – Bones surround our vital organs. E.g. the skull protects the brain, the vertebral column protect the spinal cord.

Movement –produced by muscles pulling on bones.

Blood production – Bones make blood cells in the marrow cavity and spongy bone.

LONG BONES – arms & legs, hands, feet, fingers & toes. Used for movement.

SHORT BONES – Carpals & tarsals. Fine movement & strength.

FLAT BONES – Scapula, cranium, pelvis. Protection of vital organs.

IRREGULAR BONES – Vertebrae. Protection & support.

The 5 sections of the vertebral column are:

CERVICAL 7 PIECES THORACIC 12 PIECES LUMBAR 5 PIECES SACRUM 5 PIECES COCCYX 4 PIECES

CERVICAL – neck – atlas & axis - nodding

THORACIC – chest – ribs attached

LUMBAR – largest bones, support weight, most movement & injuries occur here.

SACRUM – Fused. Transmit force from legs to upper body. Throwing events.

COCCYX - fused. No real function.

The spine is fairly thin for the weight that it is expected to carry.

Any activity where we have to lift or carry any extra weight can be dangerous. E.g. Weightlifting.

Any activity which could result in our spine moving in a way for which it was not designed is dangerous. E.g. Trampolining.

Any contact sport is dangerous due to the chance of another person causing you an injury, even by accident. E.g. a rugby scrum collapsing, or someone mis-timing a tackle.

The structure of the spine. Between each vertebra there is a disc of

cartilage. Vertebrae are linked by ligaments. Too much movement causes these ligaments to be strained or the vertebral discs to slip which is very painful.

A joint is defined as “a place where two, or more, bones meet”.

These are the majority of joints which allow the greatest range of movement. Example the knee joint.

Joint capsule: holds the bone together and protects the joint.

Synovial membrane: This lines the capsule and contains liquid called the synovial fluid.

Joint cavity: This is a small gap between the bones that is filled by synovial fluid. This lubricates the joint so bones move easier.

Cartilage: At the end of bones to prevent them rubbing together.

Ligaments: Hold bones together.

Ball and socket: E.g. hip – cross over step in javelin. Shoulder – bowling in cricket.

Hinge: E.g. Elbow – press ups. Knee – kicking a ball.

Pivot – Neck, Radius & ulna – changing from forehand to backhand in tennis.

Saddle – thumb Gliding – carpals & tarsals – swinging

golf club.

These bones can’t move at all. E.g. Cranium. The plates in the cranium are fused together for greater strength.

The bones at a slightly moveable joint can move very slightly. They are held together by ligaments and are cushioned by cartilage.

A good example of this joint is the vertebrae and the ribs and sternum.

These are attached to bones. They work when we want them to,

when we decide. Voluntary muscles are also called

skeletal muscle because they are attached to bones.

They are also called striped or striated because of their appearance under a microscope.

We do not have to think about using these muscles.They work on their own.

Examples include: stomach, gut, bladder and blood vessels.

Also known as smooth muscles because they have no stripes under a microscope.

Is a special type of involuntary muscle that forms the walls of the heart.

It works non – stop without ever tiring.

Muscles work in antagonistic pairs. Working muscle = prime mover or

agonist The relaxing muscle is called the

antagonist.E.g. to flex the arm: Biceps = agonist,

triceps = antagonistTo extend the arm Triceps = agonist,

biceps = antagonist. The hamstrings and quadriceps are

also an example of antagonistic muscle action.

Flexion – bending a limb at a joint. (Decreasing the angle).

Extension – Straightening a limb at a joint. (Increasing the angle).

Adduction – Movement towards the mid line of the body.

Abduction – Movement away from the mid line of the body.
