Understanding Health-Related and Performance-Related Fitness Components in Sports Science
Distinguishing between health-related and performance-related fitness components is crucial in understanding how fitness impacts success in sports. Health-related factors are physiologically based, influencing an individual's ability to meet physical demands, while skill-related factors are based on the neuromuscular system, impacting specific skill performance. Both dimensions are essential in all activities, with varying importance depending on the sport. This distinction helps in developing tailored training programs for optimal performance.

IB Sports, exercise and health science Measurement & evaluation of human performance Topic 6 Measurement 6.2.1 Distinguish between the concepts of health- related fitness and performance-related (skill-related) fitness Topic 6 Measurement The components of fitness relate to the requirements of a given sporting activity, and can help to explain success or failure in sport. A distinction can be made between components that are generally considered to be health related (health benefits may be gained through improvements in these components), and those that are skill related, although both will affect performance in sport. Wesson et.al 2005 The components of fitness relate to the requirements of a given sporting activity, and can help to explain success or failure in sport. Sub-topics 1. Statistical Analysis 1.

Skill related factors are based upon the neuromuscular system and determine how successful a person can perform a specific skill.

IB Sports, exercise and health science Measurement & evaluation of human performance Topic 6 Measurement 6.2.1 Distinguish between the concepts of health- related fitness and performance-related (skill-related) fitness Topic 6 Measurement Both health and skill related are required in all activities, but the relative importance of each dimension may differ. For example, a person may be physically suited to tennis, possessing speed, endurance and strength requirements, but may not possess the hand eye coordination to strike the ball successfully. In this instance the individual may be more suited to an activity such as distance running that requires fewer skill related components.

Three classifications have been identified: Maximum strength: an athlete who requires a very large force to overcome a resistance in a single contraction e.g. weight lifting Elastic strength (Power): an athlete who requires to overcome resistance rapidly yet prepare the muscle quickly for sequential contraction e.g. sprinting, triple jump Strength endurance: an athlete who is required to undergo repeated contractions and withstand fatigue e.g. rowing, swimming Wesson et.al 2005 However, it is how we apply strength that is important in the sporting context.

IB Sports, exercise and health science Measurement & evaluation of human performance Topic 6 Measurement 6.2.2 Outline the major components of fitness Topic 6 Measurement Speed - the ability to put body parts into motion quickly, or the maximum rate that a person can move over a specific distance. It is a major factor in high intensity explosive activities such as sprinting, vaulting in gymnastics or fast bowling in cricket. However, it is not simply concerned with the rate at which a person can move his/her body from A to B. It also involves putting limbs into action rapidly, such as with the throwing of the javelin. It is genetically determined by fast twitch fibre composition, with body mechanics and leverage also playing a role.

It is determined by the elasticity of ligaments and tendons, the strength and opposition of surrounding muscles (including antagonists) and the shape of articulating bones. Although it is commonly associated with gymnastics, it is in fact a requirement in all sports since the development of flexibility can lead to both an increase in speed and power of muscle contraction.

For the average 18 year old, men range from 14-17%, while woman range from 24-29%. For the athlete high body fat can result in a reduction in muscle efficiency and contributes to greater energy expenditure since more weight requires more energy to move around and a consequent increase in oxygen consumption.

IB Sports, exercise and health science Measurement & evaluation of human performance Topic 6 Measurement 6.3.1 Describe the essential elements of a general training programme Topic 6 Measurement Cool down The purpose is to keep metabolic activity high, and capillaries dilated so that oxygen can be flushed through muscle tissue, removing and oxidising any lactic acid that remains. This will prevent blood pooling which can cause dizziness if exercise is stopped abruptly. It can also limit the effects of Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) Wesson et.al 2005 Cool down The purpose is to keep metabolic activity high, and capillaries dilated so that oxygen can be flushed through muscle tissue, removing and oxidising any lactic acid that remains.

Hold for a few seconds. Step 2: Just before point of discomfort, isometrically contract the muscle being stretched for between 6 10 seconds. Step 3: After the hold, the muscle will release, having stimulated a golgi tendon organ (GTO) response which causes further relaxation of muscle, enabling further stretching.
