ASSIGNMENT BRIEF Scenario You are a ‘gifted and talented’ athlete who is taking part in some training and your coach has insisted that you understand more about HOW your body works during exercise to maximise your training and ultimately your performance. You will participate in some practical activities and look at readings to interpret what the body systems do in response to becoming active. How we physiologically change from being at rest to being active. Criteria reference To

Inflammation- Inflammation is the bulging of skin‚ organs‚ or other body parts due to fluid buildup caused an injury. The fluid rushes to the injured area and that is what makes the puffiness. 2. High Fructose Corn Syrup- (HFCS) Composed of corn and lab chemicals. HFCS is found in processed foods such as salad dressing and soda. Your body

bodybuilding supplements is creatine. Creatine monohydrate is used to increase muscle fullness and body mass. It also helps in shortening the recovery time after an intense workout. Creatine can cause your muscles to retain water‚ which can lead to dehydration in some people. Also‚ there might be up to a five pound weight gain during the first week. There are no major known

circuit training and types of S&C. Resistance training is a training method that uses a resistance to the force of muscular contraction (concentric i.e. shortening‚ eccentric i.e. stretching and isometric i.e. no change in length). Stretch shortening cycle- when a muscle is stretched before its contracted is produces a more powerful contraction e.g. CMJ Slow-twitch muscle fibres are fatigue resistant but don’t contract very forcefully or rapidy. Uses oxygen. Fast twitch fibres contract rapidly

ankles‚ feet‚ wrists‚ and the fingers. They are cube shaped‚ very light and strong. The flat bones are strong‚ flat plated‚ and provide protection for all the major organs‚ such as the brain‚ heart and the lungs. They can also provide attachment for muscles. Irregular bones are bones that don’t fit into any category‚ they help to support and protect joints‚ and an example of this would be the vertebrae. And finally‚ the sesamoid bones‚ they are usually short or irregular bones that are placed / imbedded

within the chemical bonds between the Adenosine and the three phosphate molecules. Water is added in the chemical reaction‚ causing one of the bonds to break‚ which releases one molecule of energy from the phosphate. This molecule is used for the muscle contraction. The ATP then turns into ADP as it’s lost a phosphate molecule. The ADP needs to gain another phosphate to be re-used for another reaction. Creatine-Phosphate is needed for this reaction‚ so the enzyme Creatine-Kinase is used to separate the

tests that may involve multiple repetitions. 2. In strength training and rehabilitation‚ emphasis should be given to both the concentric and eccentric phases of the movement. During the concentric phase‚ the muscle shortens from a lengthened position and during the eccentric phase the muscle lengthens from a shortened position. For example‚ in the execution of the squat‚ the subject begins in a standing position where his/her quadriceps and gluteus maximus are in a shortened position. During the

heat exhaustion or heat stroke (Leong‚ 2007). Drinking water after exercise helps to restore water balance in the body. Drinking sport drink‚ which contain sugar and electrolytes‚ can replace the electrolytes that loss in the body. Nerve and muscle contraction can be measured by monitoring changes in reaction time to find the effect of sport drink. The reaction time will be smaller after drinking sport drink than water.
