...Unit 1 Fitness for Sport and Exercise Unit 1, Fitness for Sport and Exercise, is an externally assessed, compulsory unit with three learning aims: ●● ●● ●● Learning aim A: Know about the components of fitness and the principles of training Learning aim B: Explore different fitness training methods Learning aim C: Investigate fitness testing to determine fitness levels. Unit 1 is a core unit and its content underpins the other BTEC sport units. Learning aim A looks at the components of physical and skill-related fitness and principles of training. Learning aim B covers the various training methods that can be used to develop the different components of fitness and learning aim C focuses on fitness tests. The second section contains two sample external assessments. You will be given 1 hour to complete the external assessment for this unit and the marks are out of 50. Your assessment will take place by an online, computer-based test and our two sample external assessments are designed to show you the types of questions, and question formats, you might face. Answers for the two sample external assessments can be found at the end of the book. Unit 1 Fitness for Sport and Exercise The unit is divided in to two sections. The first section contains the content of the learning aim, broken down in to bite-sized chunks. Each topic is covered and you can tick them off as you study them. 1 BTEC Sport Level 2 Assessment Guide Units 1 and 2 uncorrected first proofs issued by marketing...

...The Effect of Aerobic Exercise on the Cardiovascular and Respiratory System Anatomy & Physiology of Sport and Exercise Task 2: Laboratory Report BTEC Extended Diploma in Sports and Exercise Science Year 1 Contents Page 1 Front Page 2 Contents Page 3 –8 Introduction 9 Method 10-11 Results 12-18 Discussion Introduction The hypothesis for this project is to look at the effects of exercise on the cardiovascular system (heart rate and blood pressure) and the respiratory system (breathing rate) which will increase with exercise. This is because as we begin to exercise our bodies demand for oxygen rises as the need for energy increases, therefore we must breathe at a faster rate in order to supply oxygenated blood to the working muscles. The heart must beat quicker in order to push the oxygenated blood to the working muscles and this in turn will increase blood pressure. The Cardiovascular System. The cardiovascular system does not consist of the lungs. Cardio = the heart Vascular = the blood and blood vessels The function of the cardiovascular system is to deliver oxygen and nutrients to every cell in the body and carry hormones to different parts of the body. Remove waste products from energy production, maintain body temperature and homeostasis. The function of the blood vessels in particular is to deliver oxygen rich blood around the body and remove waste products. ...

...LEVEL 4: BTEC Higher National Certificate (HNC – HSC) Physiological Principles for Health and Social Care PHYSIOLOGY Introduction This assignment will investigate the human body organ system and how they work together . Appropriate or case study provided in this assignment will be used in order to investigate the functionality of body system. Main anatomic feature of the human body will be outline, how body system interact to ensure the body functions and grows will be discussed. The part two of the assignment will look at how the body responds to physical activity and it will also identify how the body coordinated internal activities. This assignment will also look at other human body conditions such as obesity, diabetes and discus as to deal with such conditions in order to ensure the wellbeing of individuals with such conditions. THE human body is composed of ten different systems which are made of organs working in coordination with one another. These organs have to work together as they need each another to fulfil its functions. Human organs support each other’s in order to perform their function. Below is brief descriptions and functions of human body system: 1. Central Nervous System (CNS): CNS is composed of brain, nerves, nerve endings, and spinal cord. It role is to control and coordinate the body functions (coordination of nervous). Will be responsible for sensory input, integration of data and motor output. 2. Cardio vascular system (CVS):...

...BTEC 90 Credit/Extended Diploma in Public Services Unit 5 Physical Preparation, Health and Lifestyle for the Public Services Learner Resource Pack Introduction The human body is a very complex piece of machinery. It is made up of many different systems that work together to allow us to take part in a wide range of sports and everyday activities. It is important that anyone working with clients in the sport and exercise industry has a good understanding of how each of these systems works and copes with the stresses of exercise. This unit will explore the structure and the functions of the skeletal, muscular, cardiovascular and respiratory systems and how each of them is affected by exercise. It will also focus on the energy systems and their role in sport and exercise performance. Section One - The Structure and Function of The Skeletal System and How it Responds to Exercise Part 1.1: The structure of the skeleton system The skeleton provides us with a complex framework of bones, joints and cartilage without which we could not stand upright or move. It consists of 206 bones which can be divided into the axial and appendicular skeleton. The axial and appendicular skeleton The axial skeleton provides the supportive structure of the skeleton and is made up of the skull, vertebral column, sternum and ribs. The appendicular skeleton is made up of the upper limbs, shoulder girdle, lower limbs and hip girdle and provides...

...Examples of ICT applications that can be used in physical education The following applications are considered below: Cameras Mobile phone cameras Motion analysis software Film editing Portable media players Interactive whiteboards Voice projections systems Developing FUNctional skills through physical education Games consoles Nintendo Wii Fit Dance mat systems Pedometers Pupil response systems Archos The use of iPods Podcasting The Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) Video conferencing Youtube Cameras There are a range of hardware applications that can be used with physical education departments. Video cameras can provide footage of experienced performers in action and can be used to inspire, to demonstrate correct techniques and to develop pupils’ understanding and knowledge of the subject. By reviewing their own actions, for example, pupils can evaluate and improve their own games strategies, gymnastics sequences, trampolining routines or dance compositions, particularly if they are able to look at their performances in slow motion or from a different viewing angle. Within practical situations the use of still and video cameras can highlight personal achievement within lessons. Video footage and photographic images can be cropped and edited and used either a slideshow or highlight DVD. Cameras can also be used as an assessment for learning tool and as a form of classroom management. Furthermore, they can help to create activity cards, worksheets,...
