It falls under What are the foundations of an effective training program? in Unit 4: Training to improve performance. Submit your answer above to receive instant AI-powered marking and personalised feedback.
In this unit, students’ participation and involvement in physical activity will form the foundations of understanding how to improve performance from a physiological perspective. Students analyse movement skills and fitness requirements and apply relevant training principles and methods to improve performance at various levels (individual, club and elite). Improvements in performance, in particular fitness, depend on the ability of the individual and/or coach to gain, apply and evaluate knowledge and understanding of training. Students assess fitness and use collected data to justify the selection of fitness tests based on the physiological requirements of an activity, including muscles used, energy systems and fitness components. Students then consider all physiological data, training principles and methods to design a training program. The effectiveness of programs is evaluated according to the needs of the individual and chronic adaptations to training.
In this area of study, students analyse the information required to form the foundation of an effective training program. Through participation, they undertake and collect data from an activity analysis and justify the specific physiological requirements of an activity. Students determine the relevant factors that affect each of the fitness components and conduct an assessment of fitness that demonstrates correct and appropriate implementation of testing protocols and procedures and informs the design of the training program.
factors affecting fitness components required in physical activity, sport or exercise (aerobic power, anaerobic capacity, muscular strength, power and endurance, flexibility, balance, coordination, speed and agility)
