1. Diogo complains that his football training sessions are boring. Describe the training principle his coach needs to think about when planning the training session.
The coach doesn’t change the classes enough making the students complain that they’re boring; this is where you apply the variance/tedium concept of the SOPPRAV principle. The teacher must prepare the training sessions so that they’re varied and that they avoid mental boredom as in the brain must get stimulated; physical boredom this means that the “muscles are not stimulated, there is no growth or improvements in flexibility, strength or endurance” 1. When the training becomes boring, the athletes don’t perform their best and are limiting their skills because neither their body nor their brain is being stimulated, these activities should encourage their interest
2. Sam and Oscar are goal keepers. At training the coach separates them from the team and has them practice different skills then the other team members. Why does he do this?
They need to work on different energy systems from the field players because they have to train their anaerobic energy meanwhile the field players have to train their aerobic energy system – specify the goal keeper will need to jump up, agility, the field players will have to run with the ball.
It wouldn’t make sense to train leg strength when more arm strength is required for a particular sport, same goes for Sam and Oscar, if they need to work on agility (they’ll need to jump for the ball) they wouldn’t work on resistance (like the field players because they’ll be running a lot, for example). This question can be answered by the Specify principle of SOPRRAV
3. In three cross country training sessions Gabriella and Angelica ran. 1: 4km in 25 minutes, 2: 4km in 20 minutes, 3: 4km in 18 minutes. What FITT principles were they applying? Explain using the times changes.
The FITT principles that they were applying were Time
