Factors Affecting Performance

Focus Question

How Does Training Affect Performance?

Physiological adaptations in response to training

- Resting heart rate- Stroke volume and cardiac output- Oxygen uptake and lung capacity- Haemoglobin level- Muscle hypertrophy- Effect on fast/slow twitch muscle fibres

Focus Question

How Does Nutrition Affect Performance?

Recovery strategies

- Physiological strategies, e.g. cool down, hydration- Neural strategies, e.g. hydrotherapy, massage- Tissue damage strategies, e.g. cryotherapy- Psychological strategies, e.g. relaxation

Ken Wallace (Slide 6)

Activity 4:Ken Wallace (Australian Kayaker) – has been competing for Australia in Kayaking since 18yrs of age (2001).Won his first Olympic Medals in 2008 at Beijing, with gold in the K-1 500 m and bronze in the K-1 1000 m events. Has maintained at the top of his sport ever since, currently winning Gold in both the K1500m, K15000 and K21000 at the World Cup in Europe.

Wallace’s Attributes

A well trained athlete, whose heart is very efficient, beating 42 bpm at rest, with the ability to beat up to 200bpm during competition. Ken is 188cm tall, and weighs 89kg.

His VO2 max is extremely high (75 mls/kg/min)

Low Body fat = 4% to 5%, therefore high lean muscle mass

High Lactate threshold, therefore low lactic acid levels during intense competition and trainingHigh muscle efficiency enabling him to harness more power

In the space below write down the impact of these adaptations on Wallace’s performance.

Recovery Strategies (Slides 10, 11, 12)

Activity 8:

Match the type of recovery strategy with the description. Then identify whether the strategy is Physiological (Ph), Neural (N), Tissue Damage (TD) or Psychological (Ps).

Strategy No.

Type 1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

6.

7.

Decreases skin, subcutaneous and muscle temperature, causing narrowing of the blood vessels (vasoconstriction), which dulls and reduces the sensation of pain, limiting the amount of swelling, reducing muscle spasm and clearing metabolites from superficial skin tissue.Gradually reduces heart rate and metabolism to pre-exercise state. Ventilation rate, blood distribution, adrenalin levels are gradually reduced.Involves a range of different techniques including progressive muscular relaxation, flotation, meditation visualization etc. Choice of technique is very individual.Replenishment of depleted glycogen and blood sugar in the first 30 minutes to 2 hours after exerciseInvolves the use of water to relax, sooth pain and assist metabolic recovery.Helps relieve swelling, reduce muscle tension, assist in eliminating toxic by-products, and promotes flexibility. Focus on body and mental relaxation.Replenishment of fluid lost through exercise.
