During exercise the body uses up large amounts of energy in three different ways. The ATP/CP system‚ anaerobic system and the Aerobic system all combine during periods of exercise to allow our bodies to continue exercise or playing sport. Most sports have a major system which takes up the bulk of the energy production during the activity and the timing in switching from one to another. This plays a major role in success in the playing arena. In a sport such as Australian Rules football it is important

BPK 310 – Assignment 1 UNIT 1 Question 1 (5 marks): Discuss the rate-limiting factor. Why is it important to consider when studying exercise physiology and training? Provide one example to clarify your understanding. The rate-limiting factor is the “step” that limits performances (the “slow step”). If we know the rate-limiting step in a certain physiological pathway or training situation‚ we can manipulate the factors of this step to change and increase the rate of the pathway. This will improve

Be able to relate routine variations in body structure and functioning to care received by individuals. Case Facts. A certain woman aged 65 years decided to take a trip to Harare the capital city of Zimbabwe. She stayed in Harare for two weeks then flew back to London. Afterwards‚ she reported of having fever whereby blood tests confirmed she had malaria infection. Her GP also noted she was Obese with high blood pressure besides Osteoarthritis.

HOME EXERCISE You don’t have to join a gym to get exercise. Depending on your interests you can purchase inexpensive equipment for improving muscle strength‚ endurance‚ flexibility‚ aerobic capacity‚ fat burning‚ core training and the like. I recommend an exercise ball‚ and yoga mats for stretching. Pilates equipment for floor work‚ a small weight set‚ and abdominal exercisers are also a good investment. EAT YOUR VEGGIES You are what you eat; therefore you can only create the body you want when

The sprint activity can be influenced by many anatomical‚ physiological‚ and morphological factors. These factors will be explained in this paper to identify the normal and abnormal status which may affect the sprint performance when analyzing the sprinting activity: • Stride length: Optimal sprint stride length can be achieved when the sprint is performed in proper technique. Stride length is defined as the distance covered with each stride and is improved by increasing the amount of force applied
