Question 17.
Explain any three principles of training in brief. [3]
Answer:
Three principles of training :

(i) Principle of Overload: The overload principle is a basic sports fitness training concept. It means that in order to improve, athletes must continually work harder as their bodies adjust to existing workouts. Overloading also plays a role in skill learning.

(ii) Principle of Specificity : The principle of specificity states that the more specific a training activity is to a given sport [muscle group, work load, velocity and pattern of movement, body posture, and range of motion] the more it will contribute to increasing performance in that sport.

(iii) Principle of Individualization : This could also be called the snowflake principle, since it highlights that no two climbers—or their optimal conditioning program-are the same. The best training program for a person will target his/her specific weaknesses, address past or present injuries, provide sufficient time for recovery, and be structured to provide the greatest output for the available training input.

Question 18.
Suggest the formation of various committees for systematic and smooth conduct of sports day in your school. [5]
Answer:

Select members who are excited about the project: If you’ve been working with the same committee for years, you may get bored or frustrated with the annual undertaking.
Clearly define tasks : Progress on your event will come to a halt if your committee members don’t know what to do next. At the end of each planning session, members should know their next steps and the deadlines for completing each task.
Plan ahead : Send committee members the meeting schedule several weeks in advance so they can clear the time to attend meetings.
Establish goals and expectations : When someone joins your committee, communicate clearly how much time they should set aside to complete their tasks.

Question 19.
Explain in detail about any five advantages of correct posture.** [5]

Question 20.
What is the role of various elements of diet on performance of an athlete? [5]
Answer:
Eating a balanced diet means choosing a wide variety of foods and drinks from all the food groups. It also means eating certain things in moderation, namely saturated fat, trans fat, cholesterol, refined sugar, salt and alcohol. The goal is to take in nutrients you need for health at the recommended levels.

Most of the energy used by the body is provided by the carbohydrate and the fats.
Proteins build the body and perform the function of repair of damage tissues.
Minerals and vitamins regulate the functions of the body; they are needed for important chemical reactions taking place in the body.
Water is present in all tissues of the body and plays an important role in various life processes. For example, digestion, excretion and transport of important materials within the body. It also helps in cellular reactions.

Question 21.
What is endurance? Explain the various methods for its development. [5]
Answer:
Endurance refers to the body’s ability to continue using muscular strength and endure repeated contractions for an extended period of time. It is essential in exercise and when doing heavy tasks as it allows the muscles to perform for long periods of time without becoming tired. There are various methods of its development. Some are as follows :

(i) Continuous Training : Continuous training is a type of sports training that involves activity of moderate intensity with a duration of 22. more than 15 minutes with resting intervals. It is the most common type of training and is for 23. maintaining general health and well being. Generally, this type of training is used to prepare 24. the body for sustained workouts such as marathons and triathlons, but can also be effective 25. for more casual athletes. It allows the body to work from its aerobic energy stores to improve ’ overall fitness and endurance. Chief benefits of continuous training include fat burning, muscle building, and increasing maximum aerobic potential.

(ii) Interval training : Interval training involves periods of hard work followed by a timed period of rest, repeated several times in one training session. The periods of hard work are called high intensity activity. Rest can be active (walking, jogging etc). An example of interval training is 10 fast runs over 40 metres, with a two minute rest between each run. Variables to consider during interval training are distance/duration of activity, intensity of activity, duration of rest, activity during rest, number of sets, and frequency of training. By varying any of the variables athletes can be progressively overloaded. This form of training also increases fitness levels for people involved in exercise.

(iii) Fartlek training : Fartlek, which means “speed play” in Swedish, is a training method that blends continuous training with interval training. The variable intensity and continuous nature of the exercise places stress on both the aerobic and anaerobic systems. It differs from traditional interval training in that it is unstructured; intensity and/or speed vaies, as the athlete wishes. Fartlek training can be used to improve both the aerobic and anaerobic systems by mixing moderate activity with bursts of speed.
