1. Presentation Package for Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e Section IV: Concept 14: Performance Benefits of Physical Activity

2. Facts about Fitness and Sports Performance • High-level performance is not needed for health or enjoyment from activity • High-level performance in sports requires more rigorous training than is needed for health • High-level performance is more dependent on good genetics than health but requires both health- and skill-related fitness Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

3. Relationship BetweenFitness and Performance Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

4. Dimensions of HRF (Health-Related Fitness) • Cardiovascular fitness • Muscular endurance • Muscular strength • Flexibility • Body composition Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

5. Dimensions of SRF(Skill-Related Fitness) • Agility • Balance • Coordination • Speed • Power • Reaction time Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

6. SRF and Skill Learning • Good SRF improvesability to learn skills • Good SRF does NOT ensure good skills Practice is needed to learn skills. Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

7. Practice and Skill Learning • Soccer players most likely possess good agility and coordination, but skills in dribbling and kicking come only through extensive practice! Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

8. Skill Learning Guidelines • Learn the gross concept first • Learn technique correctly • Overlearn the skill (repetition) • Use mental practice Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

9. Benefits of SRF • Helps you stay active • Improves work efficiency • Helps in emergencies • Helps in learning new activities Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

10. Lab 14a information Measuring SRF • Helps determine strengths • Helps you choose activities Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

11. Types of Performance Training • Muscle Fitness • Aerobic and Anaerobic • Power • Flexibility • Skill Information on musclefitness and aerobic/anaerobic training are covered in subsequent slides Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

12. Resistance Training Sports • Olympic weight lifting • Power lifting • Body building See “On the Web”14 for information on powerlifting and body building Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

13. Techniques for Gaining Muscle • Muscle mass is increased in response to regular weight training • Metabolism is most effective at building muscle mass when smaller more frequent meals are consumed. • smaller more frequent meals are recommended for building muscle Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

14. Myths about Gaining Muscle • Supplements (e.g. creatine monohydrate) • Do not act independently to increase muscle size. They work by allowing an individual to do more total work during training (greater training stimulus to muscles). • High protein diets • Body has no storage form for protein • Extra protein does not stimulate protein synthesis Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

15. Types of Aerobic Training • Long Slow Distance • builds base • Interval Training • builds peak anaerobic capacity • Increases VO2 max • Threshold Training • improves ability to maintain race pace for continuous length of time See “On the Web” 14 for more information on aerobic training (click 1 and 2) Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

16. Sport Specific Training • For triathletes to be successful in swimming, they need to practice swimming in “open” water. Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

17. See more infoabout lab tests Laboratory Testing of Aerobic Athletes • Laboratory tests can reveal more specific information about training adaptations • Results can be useful to help athletes optimize training In this test, heart rate, and oxygen consumption are sampled during exercise Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

18. General Issues RegardingPerformance Training • Overtraining syndrome / staleness • Periodization and Tapering • Sports Nutrition Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

19. Overtraining Syndrome • If athletes push themselves too hard during training (without sufficient rest) they can get “overtraining syndrome” • Symptoms: • fatigue • poor or irregular heart rate • high resting heart rate (relative to normal) • irritability • Treatment: REST Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

20. Periodization of Training Elite athletes use cyclical training schedules to alternate the stress ontheir bodies and allow their bodies to adapt and prepare for competition Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e

21. Sports Nutrition • Need more calories • Increase complex carbohydrates • Increased protein needs (easily met by eating more calories) • Get RDA of vitamins and minerals • Eat familiar foods Concepts of Fitness and Wellness 6e
