Muscles work together in antagonistic pairs. One muscle contracts to move a body part, another muscle in the pair then contracts to return the body part back to the original position. Match the pairs.

• Hamstring

• Hip Flexor

• Gastrocnemius

• Quadricep

• Gluteals

• Bicep

• Tricep

• Tibialis Anterior

Organize these options into the right categories

Groups:

(a) Short term effect of exercise

,

(b) Long term effect of exercise

• Decreased hydration levels

• Muscle fatigue

• Increased breathing rate

• Lower blood pressure

• Increased blood pressure

• Improved muscular strength

• Light headedness

• Increased body temperature

• Decreased resting heart rate

• Muscle hypertrophy

• Delayed onset of muscle soreness

• Nausea

• Improved cardiovascular endurance

• Increased heart rate

• Tiredness

Match these health related components of fitness to the definition.

• Muscular Strength

• The percentage body weight which is fat, muscle or bone.

• Cardiovascular Endurance

• The ability of the heart and lungs to supply oxygen to the working muscles.

• Muscular Endurance

• The range of movement possible at a joint.

• Flexibility

• The ability of a muscle or muscle group to undergo repeated contractions avoiding fatigue.

• Body Composition

• The ability to overcome a resistance.

Match these skill related components of fitness to the definitions.

• Co-ordination

• The maintenance of the centre of mass over the base of support.

• Agility

• Explosive strength or anaerobic power is the product of strength and speed (strength x speed)

• Power

• The time taken to initiate a response to a stimulus.

• Balance

• The ability to use different (two or more) parts of the body together, smoothly and efficiently.

• Reaction Time

• The ability to move and change direction quickly (at speed) whilst maintaining control.

Match the fitness test to the correct component of fitness.

• Muscular Endurance

• Skinfold caliper Test

• Flexibility

• Handgrip Dynamometer test.

• Body Composition

• 2 minute sit up test

• Muscular Strength

• Multi-stage fitness test.

• Cardiovascular Endurance

• Sit & Reach Test

Match the following methods of training to the correct description.

• Continuous Training

• Involves alternating periods of work with rest.

• Weight Training

• Exercise that can be maintained at the same intensity over and over. Often referred to as steady state.

• Interval Training

• Exercises are organised in different areas or stations.

• Fartlek Training

• Involves using some resistance to develop muscle mass.

• Circuit Training

• Swedish name for 'speed play' whereby the intensity and terrain change.

Reorder the following

• Timed

• Measurable

• Realistic

• Specific

• Achievable
