TRAINING, OVERTRAINING, DETRAINING AND RETRAINING

 TRAINING 

Sports training is a special process of preparation of sports persons based on scientific principles aimed at improving and maintaining higher performance capacity in different sports activities. 

It is a particular type of training designed to improve fitness and abilities to perform in a given sport.

Effects of training

  1. Training allows the body to gradually build up strength and endurance
  2. It improves skill levels.
  3. Training builds motivation, ambition and confidence. 
  4. Training also allows athletes to gain more knowledge of their sport.
  5. It helps in enabling athletes to learn about the importance of having a healthy mind and body.
  6. Adequate training enhance performance.

OVERTRAINING 
Overtraining occurs when an athlete doesn't adequately recover after repetitive intense training. This is seen when the workload is not balanced with enough recovery period.

Effects of overtraining 
  1. Decline in performance
  2. Unusual feeling of heaviness
  3. Excessive sweating
  4. Lack of motivation to perform
  5. Injury proneness
  6. Fatigue
  7. Unplanned weight lost

DETRAINING 

Detraining is the partial or complete loss of training-induced adaptations, in response to an insufficient training stimulus. Detraining characteristics may be different depending on the duration of training cessation or insufficient training.

Effects of detraining 
  1. Injury proneness
  2. Decrease in performance level
  3. Lack of motivation
  4. Unusual weight gain
  5. Muscular atrophy
  6. Loss of fitness adaptations
RETRAINING 
Retraining is the set of adaptive responses to resuming training after a period of training cessation.

Effects of retraining 
  1. Re-establishment of form
  2. Renewal of motivation and willingness to perform
  3. Increased fitness level
  4. New feeling of refreshment
  5. Muscular hypertrophy

(PHE 127) SENSE ORGANS

Image
SENSE ORGANS (READ TILL THE END) Sense organs are specialized structures in the body that detect and respond to external and internal stimuli, allowing organisms to interact with their environment. They transmit sensory information to the brain, which interprets the signals, enabling perception. Each sense organ contains specialized receptors that convert stimuli into electrical signals sent to the brain via sensory nerves . Humans have five primary sense organs: 1. Eyes (Vision) 2. Ears (Hearing & Balance) 3. Nose (Smell) 4. Tongue (Taste) 5. Skin (Touch, Temperature, Pressure, Pain) 1. Eyes (Vision)   Structure & Function:  Cornea: Transparent outer layer that refracts light.  Iris: Colored part controlling pupil size to regulate light entry.  Lens: Focuses light onto the retina.  Retina: Contains photoreceptors (rods for dim light, cones for color vision).  Optic Nerve: Transmits visual signals to the brain.   Pro...

History of Basketball

History of basketball  In early December 1891, Canadian American Dr. James Naismith , a physical education professor and instructor at the International Young Men's Christian Association Training School (YMCA) (today, Springfield College) in Springfield, Massachusetts , USA), was trying to keep his gym class active on a rainy day. He sought a vigorous indoor game to keep his students occupied and at proper levels of fitness during the long New England winters. After rejecting other ideas as either too rough or poorly suited to walled-in gymnasiums, he wrote the basic rules and nailed a peach basket onto a 10-foot (3.05 m) elevated track. In contrast with modern basketball nets, this peach basket retained its bottom, and balls had to be retrieved manually after each "basket" or point scored; this proved inefficient, however, so the bottom of the basket was removed, allowing the balls to be poked out with a long dowel each time.  Basketball was originally played with a soc...

EVALUATION OF TESTS AND CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION IN PHYSICAL AND HEALTH EDUCATION

EVALUATION OF TESTS AND CRITERIA FOR EVALUATION IN PHYSICAL AND HEALTH EDUCATION These criteria help determine whether a test accurately measures what it intends to measure, provides consistent results, and is appropriate for its intended use. 1. VALIDITY A test is valid if it measures what it claims to measure. Types of Validity & Examples: a) Content Validity: Ensures the test covers all relevant aspects of the subject. It Ensures the test covers all relevant components of the skill or fitness attribute. Example: A badminton skills test should include serving, footwork, and rallying—not just serving accuracy. b) Criterion-Related Validity: Assesses how well test results correlate with an external standard. It assesses how well test results predict real-world performance. Example: A 20m shuttle run (beep test) should correlate with actual cardiovascular endurance in sports like soccer or basketball. c) Construct Validity:Determines if the test measures an abstract concep...
