7 Stage model Based on Developmental Age - correct answer -Active start -fundamentals -learning to train -training to train -training to compete -training to win -active for life Active start - correct answer 0- -physical activity is unstructured -non competitive -whole child development approach FUNadmentals - correct answer Females: 6-8/Males: 6- 9 -overall general movement skill development -fun and participation emphasis -well structured but no periodization -body weight strength exercise -simple rules/ethics Learning to train - correct answer Males: 9-12/Females: 8- -overall skill development -this is a good time to have accelerated adaptations windows -intro to the mental side -single/double periodization -talent identification (narrow into a few sports) -training 3 times a week

-explanations/demonstrations -learning environment Learning vs performance - correct answer Learning - changing, developing and adapting Performance - outcome achieved Dimensions of learning - correct answer -cognitive -affective -motor Principle of diminishing returns - correct answer - Athlete evolution is non-linear (both in progression and maintenance) -building (development) -consolidation (strengthen) -stabilization (maintenance at good level) -peak (refinement) -decline (loss of flexibility, other priorities) 4 Elements of Pedagogy - correct answer -Teacher -Learner -Learning Task -Learning Environment Teacher (pedagogy element) - correct answer Teacher of... -Value systems -techniques
-regression Reflexes - correct answer -infants (birth to 1 yrs old) Rudimentary movements - correct answer -basic motor skills (reaching, grasping, releasing, sitting, standing, walking) -first 2 years FUNdamentals - correct answer -2 to 3 - 6 to 7 -gain control over gross and fine motor movements -running, jumping, throwing, catching -learn the skills in isolation from one another then able to combine them Game/Sport Skills - correct answer -specialized movement 7-teen years -maturity and physical activity does not ensure that children will acquire fundamental movement (children not mastering these skills will fail at recreational sports) Teaching Process - correct answer -organization -explanation/demonstration -Observation -Appropriate feedback -Effects of feedback Teaching through games - correct answer -games created or modified in order to address particular developmental needs of teams/athletes -can range from simple to complex -stimulates interest, develops skills and allows them to problem solve
Potential Impact of a "Game Approach" - correct answer -more game time -more opportunity to execute skills successfully -improved tactical knowledge -transfers knowledge from game to game -greater interest and enjoyment -optimally challenges learners Games approach to coaching - correct answer - athletes prefer game practices -it avoids too many players watching and doing nothing -practices designed around actual playing (real skill transfer) -improved motivation -focus on game specific skill 10 C's Drill Design - correct answer -coherent (structure makes sense) -considerate (safe and appropriate) -communicable (transmittable) -competent (addresses performance needs) -continuous (builds and extends) -creative (stimulates interests) -confident (enhances efficacy) -challenging -contextual (appropriateness) -coachable Activity Design - correct answer -level -needs -duration -purpose/objective
-need to establish the end point of a plan (most critical competition) then establish the available weeks for training/preparation -work backwards slotting in various phases of raining Super compensation - correct answer -training disturbs normal biological state -the performance of the athlete will decrease during the workout but will reach its lowest point after the workout (rapid fatigue) -the peak performance will be 48 hours after the workout (compensation) -insufficient rest will lead to chronic muscle fatigue Recovery/Regeneration - correct answer -massage -sauna -hydrotherapy -epson salt baths -contrast baths -sleep -nutrition Load progression - correct answer -training effect related to amount/quality of work over a long period of adaptations by how much % should you increase load per week? - correct answer 10% Standard Loading - correct answer -maintain loading throughout training -if there are improvements, you will plateau overloading - correct answer -performance increases when work at maximum capacity -there are no rest periods (not enough time to recover = too taxing_
Step loading - correct answer -combining phases of loading and unloading in order to have enough recovery time Flat loaders - correct answer -advanced and experiences athletes -train at highest load tolerable following by a period of relaxation/regeneration Detraining effects - correct answer -maintenance is more effective than retraining -usually 10% loss a week -endurance training is lost faster than strength training Physical abilities - correct answer -rate of energy/force production by muscles and by range through which movements can be executed Motor abilities - correct answer Abilities supporting controlled execution of movements Aerobic Stamina - correct answer -sustain effort over extended period of time -needs oxygen -uses fats/carbohydrates -no lactic acid production -improves VO2 max (working close to HR for long durations) Training Aerobic Systems - correct answer -work close to max heart rate for long durations of time -intensity should not increase more than 10% a week (ideally should increase 2-5%) Carbohydrate super compensation - correct answer - 10 days before = no carbs -3 days before overload carbs in order to store them for competition
