VOLLEYBALL ASSIGNMENT Prochchhanno M. Ahmad PART A Identifying the Components of Fitness QUESTION 1 • Identify the health related components of fitness for volleyball and explain why you have identified them. • Identify the skill related components of fitness for volleyball and explain why you have identified them. ANSWER 1 • I have identified flexibility for health related fitness. The reason why I have identified it because, flexing is done all the time while playing volleyball. For example, while bumping, the legs are bent, while setting, the legs are bent. • For skill related fitness, I have identified power. The reason why I have identified it because, to do a good spike, a lot of power in the arms are required. Another skill related fitness required is agility. It is required because, in volleyball, the ball comes from many different directions. The player has to change their position then hit and aim the ball on the correct place. QUESTION 2 • Choose one skill from volleyball: spike, block set, dig, serve. • Identify the skill related fitness components that would be specific for that skill and justify your decision. ANSWER 2 • I choose dig • Agility is required for the skill dig. Because in a dig, the player has to change his/her direction all the time to get the ball. He/she must always bend the legs and stand up to bring power to ball. The same thing is done over and over, therefore agility is required. QUESTION 3 • Explain what circuit training is. • What are the advantage of choosing circuit training as a way of improving your fitness for volleyball. ANSWER 3 • Circuit training is a training which is a fast-paced class where each exercise is done for 30 seconds to 5 minutes. The training is done like the game musical chairs, where the instructor yells ‘time’ and everyone moves to the next free station (a place where an exercise is done). Circuit training targets strength building and muscular endurance. • • Some activities which are included in the train are squat ups, bench ups, sit ups, squat jumps, step ups, shuttle runs, bench squats, etc. Circuit training helps work both cardiovascular and strength training. Since circuit training is done repeatedly, in a short period of time with less rest, it is good for the volleyball players as they have to change directions quickly (agility). Circuit training supports to build cardiovascular muscles at the same time you will get the strength you need, which is another advantage for volleyball.
