Time of assessment ‘Two weeks What you need to do Read the scenario parts and answer the questions that follow. (Part 7 measure anaerobic capacity. You are the coach of a local club hockey team who play in first division. It is the start of pre-season training and you want to know the aerobic and anaerobic capabilities of each player. Describe two tests for your players suitable to measure aerobic capacity, and two tests suitable to (2) Explain the purpose of each fitness test and identify the fitness component it measures. (4. marks) FITNESS TEST PURPOSE AND FITNESS COMPONENT BEEP TEST The beep test is used to measure the aerobic fitness component.“t was developed to measure someone's cardiovascular fitness level and to see their maximum oxygen intake (VO2 MAX). 42-MINUTE RUNICOOPER RUN (AEROBIC CAPACITY) Itis an easy way to measure aerobic fitness and provide an estimate of Vo2 max for military personne It is used by many coaches and trainers to determine cardiovascular fitness and track fitness over time. 30 SECOND WINGATE TEST (ANAEROBIC CAPACITY) ‘The 30 second Wingate test is to measure the anaerobic power of the lower body-t was developed to determine peak anaerobic power and the mean power output in a 30 second period“ ‘45 SECOND RUN TEST (ANAEROBIC CAPACITY) Itis commonly used by track and field coaches as a measure oF speed endurance ‘for 400 800 metre runners. The aim of the test is to complete the maximum distance in 45-seconds. It measures the anaerobic fitness component. (b) Explain the procedure for conducting each test, including how it is measured.

However, after evaluating the results of each player's fitness test, you notice that aerobic capacity is generally weaker that anaerobic capacity. (c) Identify three principles of training to improve players’ aerobic capacity. (3 marks) -Progressive overload / “Specificity 7 Reversibility / (4) Define each principle. (marks) Progressive overload Progressive overload refers to the process of gradually overloading the | body with either volume, intensity, frequency or time in order to reach a specific goal. ‘Specificity The word specificity comes from the observation that the adaptation of the body or change is physical fitness is specific to the type of training undertaken. If a fitness objective is to | increase flexibility, then you must train flexibility and stretch. Reversibility ‘His term is used to tell the athletes if they stop training or working out they will ose the effects and muscles,gain from the training or work out. (e) _Desoribe how each principle works to improve aerobic capacity. (6 marks) They all tie in with each other. The Progressive overload helps to increase the body's overall volume, intensity and the amount of time that person is capable of working forSpecificity will help to achieve the persons final goal as they will need to work on a certain training in order to achieve that goal.“The more times the athlete works on something the aerobic capacity will increase as it slowly gets used to doing that activity/The reversibility will help to improve the athletes aerobic. - Ned 40 inclvola Physiologica adapiadsons .
