EUROPEAN HANDBALL SPECIFCS

what is the major contributing energy system (Aerobic energy system)

• aerobic system

• continually resynthesises ATP during low intensity movements (walking/jogging)

• responsible for replenshing PC stores and clearing metabolic by products (H+ ions) during rest periods/low intensity play.

• mention how it takes like 30 seconds to restore like 70% of PC

how does ATP PC contribute?

• major contributor for short, explosive efforts lasting up to 10 seconds at MAXIMAL intensity.

• handball specifics : include jump shots, explosive sprints (5m), defensive blocks

how does anaeorbic glycolysis contribute?

• major contributor for HIGH INTENSITY EFFORTS lasting between 10-60 seconds, OR when repeated EXPLOSIVE efforts occur

• handball specifics : REPEATED defensive blocks, team is CONSTANTLY passing + moving at high intensities

interplay

All three energy systems contribute at all times…

THE LARGEST/MOST SIGNIFICANT CONTRIBUTOR IS…

their contribution changes based on INTENSITY and DURATION of specifc movement

purpose of PAR Q prior commoencement of a training program

• identifies any health risks, ensures safety of participant and administrator.

• knowing helps develop a training program specifc to the athlete/indivdual

advantage of heart rate monitor

• small and practical

• identifies relo between HEART RATE AND INTENSITY

disadv of heart rate monitor

• requires calibration

• inaccurate (smart watches)

advantage of direct observation

• analysis takes place immediately

• can identifiy range of info about a participant during performance.

disadvantage of direct observation

• subjective MEANING leads to low accuracy.

• ALSO it is hard to record data and observe simultaneously

 purpose of fitness testing from a physiological perspective. 

•  Identifies the benchmarks of fitness required to measure progress

• Identifies an individuals current fitness and physical abilities to ensure they are capable of physically handling demands

 purpose of fitness testing from a psychological perspective. 

• Identifies their mental & emotional state to ensure they are capable of psychologically handling demands

what is informed consent ?

• test protocols that ensure clear understanding of the testing process

• will assist them to prep from a psychological perspective.

purpose of informed conset

• protects the individual and test administrator from legal and ethical trouble.
