S&C - Needs Analysis 2

Assessment 2 Feedback -

Excellent submission rate


Difficult assessment incorporating lots of factors - clear effort put in!


Main areas to work on relate to training variables - specific intensities/exercise selection


Rationales were written extremely well


First time tackling gym-based sessions - well done!

S&C Training Needs Analysis –

gathering the necessary information to determine needs and requirements to design a specific resistance-training programme for sports performance.

RECAP- MOVEMENT
PATTERNS

Analysing the movements of athletes helps to illustrate the varying demands placed on the body during performance

If we identify specific biomechanical
movement patterns we are able to design a more accurate and effective training programme.

BOXING - EXAMPLE

Punching movements in arms –

• Elbow extension and shoulder flexion (e.g.,

jab/straight right)

• Horizontal flexion of shoulder and flexion

of elbow (e.g., hook)

• Shoulder and elbow flexion (e.g.,

uppercut).

Movements in legs –

• Triple extension in ankle, knees and hips

when punching, bobbing & weaving and footwork

Movements in trunk –

• Upper-body rotations when hooking or

crossing, bobbing and weaving

COMPONENTS OF
FITNESS

Performance demands are different for each sport.

It is vital that you know the physical demands/requirements of the sport you will be working with.

Working on the wrong component could waste time throughout a season - knowing strengths/weaknesses is key.

COMPONENTS OF
FITNESS

Individual Task

Research the components of fitness that are most important for participation in your selected sport.

Use academic literature to justify your choice of components (this will be used within your assessment).

STRENGTH
TRAINING STATUS

Essential to consider your strength training status:

• Beginner

• Intermediate

• Advanced

Q. How would this affect training sessions/programme planning?

INJURIES

Group Task

In groups of 3-4, select 2 different sports and research the following:

Common injuries associated with the sports (Identify the types of injuries, their causes, and the affected body areas.).

Gather data to examine the injury rate/prevalence within the sports.

This will be included within your assessment (note down references to use).

Assessment 3

Individual Task

Use the remainder of this session to update your presentation with the research conducted today:


Fitness Components


Common Injuries

Next Session..

Prior to our next session, you should research the following in relation to your chosen athlete/sport:


Energy system requirements

Relevant fitness tests

Role demands
