performance – mechanical advantages and
disadvantages and range and speed of
movement.

Levers – Mechanical Disadvantage
Work = Force × Distance
MA tells how much the lever magnifies
effort
M Ad > 1 occurs if effort required less than
load
M Ad < 1 occurs if effort required greater
than load
MA - 1st class lever
effort
resistance
effort arm
resistance arm
axis
• Effort & resistance act on
opposite sides of axis
• It is the most versatile of
the lever systems
– Depending on effort arm
distance can lift a large
resistance or act at a small
distance to move the
resistance a greater
distance
M Ad either > or <
1 or = 1
(dependent upon
axis)
MA - 2nd class lever
• Forces act on one side of the axis
• M Ad always > 1(effort is always less than the resistance)
Effort arm
effort

axis
The effort must always move a
greater distance than the resistance

Applied Exercise physiology in practical
situations
• Principles of training – specificity, progression, over-training, overload,
reversibility and tedium
• FITT principles
• Calculating work intensity for optimal gains through heart rate and Borg
scale, weights – one rep max
• Fitness testing – reasons for testing
• Principles of maximal and sub-maximal tests
• Limitations of testing, specific test protocols, issues relating to validity and
reliability.
• Physiological and psychological value of a warm-up and cool-down
• Types of stretching exercises, active, passive, static and ballistic.
• Principles of safe practice
• Training methods – continuous, intermittent, circuit, weights, plyometrics
and mobility training. Explanation of the principles of each method,
specific examples, advantages and disadvantages.
Fitness Questions - Exams
Fitness Training Considerations
Performer’s needs – base line
Fitness components of activity
Training principles
Training methods
Training year - major competitions
Training principles (1)
Specificity – relevant to task – energy system,
body area, movement
Progression – more intensity/ frequency/ duration
Over-training – insufficient rest is harmful
Reversibility – Lose quicker than you gain Tedium
– variety, repetition is boring
Training principles (2) – F.I.T.T.
F – frequency (per day/week)
I – intensity (% of max)
T – time/duration
T – type/mode
(continuous/intermittent)
Continuous training
• Continuous running, swimming,
rowing or cycling - trains aerobic
system - develops endurance
• Sub-maximal work
• Higher intensity – anaerobic systems
• Based on % of max HR (HR Zones)
Determining intensity
• Lactate sampling
• Heart rate
–Karvonen formula
[(max HR - resting HR) x 0.6] + resting HR
–Heart rate training zone
• Training pace/intensity - % of maximum
Heart rate zones
• Measured as a percentage of
maximum heart rate
• Maximum heart rate (220 - age)
• Unfit – train at 50-70% of max HR
• Fit – train at 70-90% of max HR
Borg Scale – rate of perceived
exertion
Intermittent training
• Periods of work and recovery
• Adjust frequency, duration, intensity and
recovery period
• Blocks of work = ‘sets’
• Sets composed of repetitions
• Number of repetitions/intensity of the exercise
–link to recovery interval – energy system
• Circuit training, weight training, shuttles
Circuit training
• A series of exercises performed one after the

other – the circuit
Each exercise exists at a ‘station’
Consecutive stations designed to stress
different muscle groups
Or different aspects of fitness - spread the
fatigue. Usually designed to last 20 - 40 minutes
Normally - 2-4 laps of the circuit,
Rest interval decided between laps and/or
stations.

Strength
• Training programs that are concentric-only /
eccentric-only do not yield as much strength
gains as combined
– because concentric contraction may use different
motor units than eccentric contraction
– because we are not able to maximally contract
eccentrically (we are lengthening muscle)
– delayed-onset muscle soreness
METHODS
Weighted vest
running/jumping
Towing (sled, tire,
parachute etc)
Uphill running, riding
Sand/shallow water
running
Strength
• plyometrics or “pre-loading”
– eccentric-concentric sequence
– muscle performs more positive work during
concentric contraction
– storage of elastic energy
– altered cross-bridge attachment
– more calcium release
– activation of larger, stronger motor units
PLYOMETRICS
• Eccentric contraction (landing)
Stretch-Shorten Cycle
Stretch Reflex
Elastic energy stored
• Concentric – take off

Stretch-Shorten Cycle
Stretch Reflex
eccentric-concentric sequence
muscle performs more positive work
during concentric contraction
storage of elastic energy
altered cross-bridge attachment
more calcium release
activation of larger, stronger motor
units
Fitness – flexibility
• Move joints through a wide
range of movement (ROM)
• Most activities because of
need to stretch to reach
• Limits to movement –
bones, ligaments, muscles
and tendons
• Sit and reach test,
goniometers
Stretching
Active
Involves voluntary muscle contractions to
achieve stretch
Stretch held for 30-60 seconds
Relax muscle of end of range
Passive
Use external force to increase range achieved
– partner, gravity, body wt
Forcibly increase range achieved
Stretching - PNF
• Best way of increasing flexibility
• Hold stretch for 6 seconds
• Stretch reflex inhibited
• Isometric contraction
• Increase stretch
Training Overload
Fatigue Theory of Supercompensation
Under-Training
Fitness Testing
Tests for each component
Name, describe, component,
limitations
Validity
Actually measures
what it claims
Maximal - Sub-maximal
Limitations

to activity/game situation.

components
Reliability
Variables accounted
for/controlled
Ethical
Considerations
If test is repeated should give
same result
Health and safety,
tests to destruction
Maximal and sub-maximal tests
– exercise to
exhaustion – need high
motivation
Maximal
• Sub-maximal – exercise to
less than maximal and
extrapolating results (heart
rate) to estimate maximal
values
Direct and indirect tests
Most concerned with cardio-respiratory
endurance/stamina - VO2 max
Direct involves
measuring VO2 max
Indirect involves estimating VO2 max – by
measuring heart rate
Physiological tests
Heart Rate
• Pulse taking is cheap and simple
• Pulse meter more accurate and less
distracting; doesn’t require performer to
stop
Respiration
 Use breath volume bags (Douglas bags)
linked to one-way valve to measure vital
capacity
 Maximum expiration into the bag following a
maximum inspiration
Predictive tests
• Maximum heart rate corresponds to exercise
at a maximum workload
• Heart rate is related to workload over a range
of exercise intensities
• Use heart rate measures to estimate
maximum heart rate/workload
Step Tests – protocol, step height cadence etc.
Simple but outmoded
Multistage shuttle run test
• Predicts VO2 max
• 20-metre shuttles using
tape-recorded timing;
progressive; maximal;
accurate; large groups
• Maximal – requires
motivation; favours
runners
PWC170 cycle ergometer test
• Measures aerobic fitness/stamina
• Standardised workload undertaken – heart
rate measured
• Three workloads/heart rates taken
• Data extrapolated to find workload achievable
at heart rate of 170bpm
• Accurate – measurement of both HR and
workload
Wingate power test
• 30 seconds of all out cycling to determine
anaerobic power
• Workload calculated according to weight
• Number of revolutions counted for every 5
seconds of test
• Graph produced of power against time
• Accurate – measurement of both power and
time
Objective, Subjective Tests
Objective tests provide
quantifiable measures of
performance (metres/seconds/runs/points)
Subjective tests provide
judgments about quality
of performance – no
units
