What is cardiovascular endurance?
The range of movement around a joint.
Distance divided by time.
Ability of the cardiorespiratory system to work efficiently, supplying nutrients and oxygen to working muscles during sustained physical activity.
The ability of muscle to exert maximum force.
What is flexibility?
The relative ratio of fat mass to fat free mass in the body.
The range of movement around a joint.

Gary is 43. Calculate his max heart rate.
220-43 = 177
200-43 = 157
230 - 43 = 187
220-53 = 167
Select a rating on the Borg scale for moderate intensity.
9-11
11-13
5-9
13-15
Alejandro is 19 what is his max heart rate?
220-19=201
230-19=211
200-19=181
220-19=181
Phillipa is a 10'000m runner select ~THREE reasons why having high levels of aerobic endurance would help her
Help supply her working muscles with oxygen for the duration of the race
Reduce fatigue levels towards the end of the race
Allow her to exercise at a higher intensity for longer due to increased oxygen supply
Increase the sprint speed she can set off with at the start of the race
Select THREE reasons why flexibility would be beneficial to Marco the hurdler.
Less likely to become injured through muscular strains
Legs and hips more flexible to clear hurdle more easily
Longer running stride so can run faster and have better rhythm
Will be able to touch his toes
Speed is important in jumping and throwing events because...
It allows you to build more momentum
More speed will mean more force is applied to the jump of throw
It can be done quicker
it means you will be able to exercise for longer at a higher intensity
The number of times your heart beats per minute
Heart rate
Breathing rate
VO2 Max
Pulse rate
RPE stands for...
Rating of perceived exertion
Intensity
BORG Scale
Rating of perceived exercise
Working out maximum heart rate is useful because... Select TWO
Makes training more specific
Can ensure athlete is working in correct training zone so they get the most from the session
It is interesting to find out
Can be an indicator of heart problems in the future
Focusing training on activities and exercises relevant to an individual's sporting goals and needs
Specificity
Variation
Adaptation

What is Aerobic endurance?
The ability of a muscle or group of muscles to repeatedly contract over time.
The range of motion around a joint.
The ability of the heart, lungs and blood to provide oxygen for a prolonged period of time.
The amount of force a muscle can exert against a resistance.
The ability of the heart and lungs to supply oxygen and nutrients to the body - match the answer!
Muscular endurance.
Speed.
Muscular strength.
Aerobic endurance.
The ability to put body parts into motion quickly - match the answer!
Agility.
Speed.
Power.
Reaction time.
What is the formula to calculate speed?
Speed = time divided by distance
Speed = distance divided by time
Speed = distance multiplied by time
Speed = time multiplied by distance
A runner races in the 100 meter dash. It takes her 10 seconds to finish. What is her average speed?
10 m/s
1000 m/s
100 seconds
10 seconds
