Physiology of Plyometrics Plyometrics refers to exercise that enables a muscle to reach maximum force in the shortest possible time. The muscle is loaded with an eccentric (lengthening) action, followed immediately by a concentric (shortening) action. Example Workouts;- ~Squat jumps~ 1. 4 x 8 repetitions of each exercise 2. 2 minutes between sets 3. Fatigue must not impair speed of performance 4. Start with feet just beyond shoulder-width apart 5. Bend the knees to a three-quarter squat position 6. Extend the legs to jump into the air 7. Land and immediately power up into another jump 8. Keep the torso upright 9. Look straight ahead 10.Land on the balls of the feet 11.Use your arms to assist your jump power ~Side to side jumps~ 1. 4 x 8 repetitions of each exercise 2. 2 minutes between sets 3. Fatigue must not impair speed of performance 4. Stand with your feet just beyond shoulder-width apart 5. Slightly bend your knees 6. Extend your legs and leap to one side 7. Land with your fee...

~Shoulder exercises to help you avoid shoulder pain~ 1. Balance your upper body workouts A good way to avoid shoulder injuries is to make sure your upper body strength sessions are balanced. This means that every push or press exercise must be balanced with a pull or row exercise. Too many athletes and weight trainers focus on developing the 'mirror muscles', the upper trapezius, anterior deltoid and pectorals. As a consequence, the 'non-mirror muscles', lower trapezius, rhomboids, latissimus dorsi and rear deltoid, are underdeveloped. This leads to a muscular imbalance about the shoulder, which results in poor scapular stabilisation. since the non-mirror muscles are the ones that work to stabilise the scapula. In addition, over-developed mirror muscles can lead to a round-shouldered posture, which incorrectly places the scapula up and forward. Redressing this imbalance is very important for the prevention and rehabilitation of shoulder impingement injuries The followi...

The mountain is so remote, lying more than 65 miles of rugged mountain terrain from the nearest village, that it had no name. Instead it was given a surveyor’s designation (K for Karakorum Mountains), and a number, based on an initial guess that it was the second highest peak in the range. Once within a region nominally controlled by British India, K2 stands near Afghanistan, on the border between Pakistan and China, in an area most closely related by history to Kashmir. To say the least, it is a very colorful corner of the world in which to embark on an adventure. K2 was long considered un-climbable, but it still drew exploratory mountaineers. At the same time that the British were laying siege to Everest, large teams of Italian and small teams of American climbers were risking it all on K2. Attempts in 1902, 1909, 1929, 1938, 1939 and 1953 all failed. In 1954, the Italians persevered: two climbers finally reached the summit. Even now, years can go by without a successful ascent. In f...

The skeletal system is a complex and multi-functional system. Its main functions are: a. Support -Bone is the major supporting tissue of the body. It is a strong tissue that can support huge quantities of weight, and can be considered the load bearing foundation of our bodies. In addition to bone, cartilages provides a firm but flexible support in some structures such as our trachea, while ligaments attach to bones and help to join bones together and hold them firmly. b. Movement -Our movement is achieved through the cooperative function of our muscles and our bones. Muscles are attached to bones by tendons, and through the presence of joints, allow for the movement of our limbs. c. Protection -Bone is hard and firm, and is vital as a protective tissue for our most important organs. The skull surrounding and protecting the brain is the best example of bone performing such a function. Another example is the rib cage which surrounds and protects the heart and the lungs, as well as the ...

Do you agree that the heart is just like a pump? Well, it is true. The heart functions as a muscular pump in our body. In this topic, you are going to learn all about the heart along with its cardiac cycle, circulation, electrical activity and pressure mechanism. Note that deoxygenated blood from the main veins flows into the vena cava. The blood from the vena cava goes into the right atrium, pumped into the right ventricle through the tricuspid valve and out of the right side of the heart through the pulmonary artery. The blood then flows into the lungs where there is diffusion of gas whereby CO2 is released into the alveolus and O2 diffuses into the arterial side of the circulation. Blood rich in oxygen then goes into the pulmonary vein on its way into the left atrium. From the left atrium the blood flows into the left ventricle through the bicuspid (mitral) valve. The strong pumping action of the left ventricle forces oxygenated blood into the aorta and then through the arteries to ...

UKJK (Ujian Kecergasan Jasmani Kebangsaan) National Physical Fitness Test UKJK- Ujian Kecergasan Jasmani Kebangsaan (National Physical Fitness Test) This test is an internationally accepted procedure to assess the fitness level of an individual. From the results of this test, the individual will know his fitness level and take appropriate measures to improve his health and fitness status through proper exercise, diet and changes in his life-style. The test itself consists of 7 tests to measure the different fitness components. The fitness components tested are: 1. Stamina: This is the ability of the body to do work over a long period of time without feeling undue fatigue. Stamina is also known as Cardiovascular Fitness as it is related to the cardiovascular function of the body. This is the most important of all the fitness components.The test for this component is the 2.4 km run. 2. Strength: This is the force generated when muscles contract maximally.A persons ability to carry weight...

Reinhold Messner lahir di Brixen, Trentino-Alto Aldige pada 17 September 1944 berumur 67 tahun adalah pendaki gunung berbangsa Itali yang tercatat sebagai orang yang pertama melakukan pendakian solo tanpa bantuan oksigen di Gunung Everest (1980). Beliau juga merupakan orang pertama yang mendaki empat belas puncak "eight-thousanders', puncak dengan ketinggian 8.000 meter di atas permukaan laut. Pendakian solonya ke Everest, ketika itu tiada pendaki lain di pergunungan dan dianggap sebagai prestasi tunggal yang tiada duanya karena pegunungan ini sekarang sering didaki dalam berbagai kelompok dan sering terganggu dengan pendaki lain yang juga naik serentak. Pada tahun 2004 beliau berjalan sejauh 2000 kilometer melintasi Gurun Gobi. Empat belas puncak yang telah berjaya ditawan ; 1970: Nanga Parbat (8.125 m) 1972: Manaslu (8.156 m) 1975: Gasherbrum I (8.068 m) 1977: Dhaulagiri (8167 m) 1978: Gunung Everest (8846 m), Nanga Parbat (8.125 m) 1979: Qogir (8611 m) 1980: Gunung Everest ...
