The tennis serve is the most skilful out of all the 6 skills I have chosen because it matches these 7 points that recognise a skilled performance: Learned Goal Orientated Aesthetic Successful Consistent Economic (in terms of time/energy) Cognitively Processed The tennis serve requires a lot of practice to groove the skill into the long-term memory, to be able to produce a powerful, accurate and effective service it requires a huge amount of learning. The serve is so vital for that the game that professional players will dedicate a large amount of their practise to learning how to serve accurately with power. The serve is definitely goal orientated because the service can easily win you the point/game and if your
Sport in society
Sport in society ) State the possible reasons for the rise in obesity here in Northern Ireland. There are many possible reasons for the rise in obesity in Northern Ireland. Some parents are letting their children eat more fast food for dinner, as some may come in late from work and don't bother cooking healthy dinners. Fast food restaurants such as McDonalds and KFC use television to advertise their food and make it look very appealing, which attracts both children and adults to buy their food. Also, in packed lunches for school, children are maybe eating a biscuit and a packet of crisps for break, then another biscuit and packet of crisps for lunch, along with their sandwich and drink. In primary schools PE is supposed to be compulsory, however many teachers do not do it as much as they should. Children are not getting the same amount of exercise as they used to. This along with eating too much junk food adds to the growing number of obese children in Northern Ireland. There are children here in Northern Ireland that may be overweight when they start school, which is mostly down to their parents and the food they are given. Some children may not be very good at sport and if they are laughed at, won't want to join in again. It's not only children though; adults too are not exercising enough. Some focus on their jobs and have children to look after and may not have

My Six Week Training Programme to Improve Cardiovascular Fitness
My Six Week Training Programme to Improve Cardiovascular Fitness We were asked to create a six-week training programme to improve our cardio-vascular fitness level. Cardiovascular refers to the heart and blood vessels. Cardio vascular fitness is improved by regular training. When a person trains regularly, their stroke volume increases both at rest and at work. The heart rate slows down and the heart is more efficient. Cardiovascular training is aerobic respiration. Maximum heart rate is not affected by training. It can be worked out by using this formula: 220-age=maximum heart rate. My maximum heart rate is 205 bpm. I will be aiming to get my heart between 60-80% of my maximum for 20 minutes three times a week. My heart rate must be between 123-164 bpm. I will exercise three times a week and hold my heart rate between 123-164 bpm. I will try to apply all aspects of training. 1) Systematic- my training will be planned. 2) Individual needs- I have chosen to do training that I enjoy. 3) Specificity- the training I do will be the training needed to improve cardiovascular fitness. 4) Overload- The training is in a worthwhile target (60-80% of maximum HR). 5) F.I.T.T- Frequency, I will train three times a week. Intensity, I will train as hard as I am supposed to (60-80% of maximum HR). Time, each session is 20 minutes long. Type, the training I'm doing is appropriate for
Personal Exercise Plan
Personal Exercise Plan (P.E.P.) I am going to produce and carry out a personal exercise plan that will potentially improve my performance in my sport. My chosen sport is actually a combination of kickboxing and freestyle karate. I shall refer to it as martial arts. Martial arts requires many skill related fitness characteristics such as: agility, power, reaction time and balance, and also health related fitness characteristics such as: strength, speed, body composition, flexibility and both types of endurance (cardio-respiratory and muscular). These are all fitness characteristics; fitness is the ability to undertake everyday activities without undue fatigue. I shall concentrate on improving power, body composition, speed and flexibility. - Power is the ability to exert maximum muscular contraction instantly in an explosive burst of movements. This is a combination of speed and strength. This applies to being able to execute attacks with maximum speed and strength for a more devastating blow. I scored 230 cm on the sergeant jump that is the highest in my group, which is good, and I can bench press the maximum available weight of 72 kg with ten reps, which is impressive, as I only weigh 70 kg. - Flexibility is the ability to achieve an extended range of motion without being restricted by excess tissue. This applies to being able to execute different kicks with varied
Personal Exercise Plan.
Personal Exercise Plan Personal Exercise Plan is when you are given your self a specific aspect of health to improve on, in a certain amount of weeks. You will gather results of each activity you do and at the end you will be able to see if you have improved the aspect that you have chosen. My Personal Exercise Plan will last for six weeks at the end of each week I will put in my results, then at the end of the six weeks I will be able to notice if my aspects of fitness have improved. Name : Adam Huxtable Age : 16 Date of Birth : 28/11/1987 Height : 5ft s6in Weight : 8 st 3 lb Preferred Sport : Football Position Played : Left Back Components of Fitness * Cardiovascular Endurance - is about keeping your muscles supplied with oxygen. If your heart and lings can provide a lot of oxygen, your cardiovascular system is good. * Muscular Endurance - is good if your muscles can apply a lot of force to something. This means you can push, pull, lift, throw etc. Very hard or very quickly. * Flexibility - is the ability to use muscles through their full range of movement to move joints with ease. If your flexible your less likely to injure yourself. * Reaction Time - is the time it takes you to respond to something. It could be a starter's gun, or a pass in football. * Speed - is the ability to perform a movement or cover a distance in a short period of time, body parts or

On the nest page I will include a timetable that will include all other commitment and any weekend activities. I will allocate set days to train in the gym and modify it as necessary when I decide on what method I will use so how often I will train for. * I have to take into consideration that I have quite a heavy work load and so not too much time can be spent at the gym * I am not sure what motivates me and whether I work better with or without music or whether I would work better with a partner to train with. * I go walking in the dales on a Sunday- this will mean I can not train on this da. Although, it will help me reach my aim because continuous training is exercising the cardio vascular, aerobic system. * I am asthmatic so this will affect how long and intense I will be able to train for. I will take this into consideration when planning my programme. Fitness tests Fitness test Score
Personal Exercise Programme
Purpose/Aim of the PEP Outline of Personal Profile: The sport that I have chosen for my personal exercise programme is rugby. I play rugby for my school's 2ndXV team and we practice 4 times a week including a scheduled match on Saturday against a different school. I have chosen rugby because it is my favourite sport and I hope to improve my rugby skills by following an exercise programme. Another reason why I have chosen rugby is because I am ambitious to play in the 1stXV rugby team next year. In order to achieve this I must improve several areas of my game including strength and speed. I expect that following my exercise programme for 6 weeks will give me the opportunity to improve those specific areas of my game and prepare me for a higher standard of rugby next year. I play hooker in rugby and so my exercise programme is going to be specific to that position and improving the qualities necessary for a front-row player. I will be focussing mainly on increasing my maximum strength, which is essential for the position I play in. Rugby is a very physical sport and strength is essential to any player, but especially forwards. I also intend to increase my fitness through cardio-respiratory endurance. This is because as a hooker, I spend the majority of the game running around from one side of the pitch to the other, trying to get to the breakdowns as fast as I can.
Personal Exercise Programme.
Personal Exercise Programme - By Tim Hughes The Task To plan and carry out a 6 - week personal exercise programme, relevant to a sport of my choice, which will improve at least one of the different areas of fitness. What is fitness? Physical fitness is to the body what fine-tuning is to an engine. It enables us to perform at our potential. Fitness can be described as a condition that helps us look, feel and do our best. More specifically, it is "the ability to perform daily tasks vigorously and alertly, with energy left over for enjoying leisure time activities and meeting emergency demands. It is the ability to endure, to bear-up, to withstand stress, to carry on in a situation where an unfit person could not, and is a major basis for good health and well - being". There are four areas of fitness that I can work on for this programme: * Strength / Speed * Suppleness / Flexibility * Muscular Endurance * Stamina / Cardiovascular Fitness I am going to work on cardiovascular fitness, relevant to my sport - Rugby. In order to achieve maximum benefit from an exercise programme the understanding of the principles of fitness are very important. Correct use of these principles will determine if the outcome of a fitness programme will be successful or not. The principles of fitness are adaptation, progressive overload, FITT principle, specificity, reversibility and
principles of training
Principles of training Specificity- any training undertaken should be relevant and appropriate to the sport for which the individual is training. You should train the muscles, energy systems and skills that are specific to the sport for with you are training for. Different training methods will give types of results for different parts of the body for example, lifting weights will improve your muscular strength on your arms. Progression- the principle of progression implies that there is an optimal level of overload that should be achieved, and an optimal time frame for this overload to occur. Overload should not be increased too slowly or improvement is unlikely. Progression will be achieved when a good level and regular overload takes place. For example, if you don't increase the amount of exercise or type of exercise you do you will not see any progression Overload- overload states that a greater than normal stress or load on the body is required for training adaptation to take place. The body will adapt to this stimulus. Once the body has adapted then a different stimulus is required to continue the change. You must work your body harder than what you usually do if you want to see changes in your level of fitness. For example, if you are improving your ability to run you should increase your speed, distance or time. Reversibility- improved ranges of movement can be
