1. Touch Football Energy Systems Analysis
Part One Touch Football is a team sport consisting of 6 players split into two teams on the field at a given time. It is a high intensity game, involving
bursts of maximal speed and power. During a game of Touch Football, all three energy systems work towards energy production required for muscular
contractions, however the dominant energy system is determined by the intensity and duration of the effort performed. The ATP
–CP system, fuelled by
Creatine Phosphate (CP), is dominant at intensities above 95% of maximum heart rate (MHR) for durations up to 10 seconds. This system would
have been dominant during the 11 entries into speed zone 4 where the player maximally sprinted above 18km/hr (Appendix 2), and also when the
player reaches a peak... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Muscular hypertrophy occurs through anaerobic training and also causes an increase in lactate tolerance since the lactate produced is less concentrated
enabling athletes to tolerate increased amounts. The greater extent of muscular hypertrophy and therefore lactate tolerance in males compared to
females is evident in the greater number of attacking efforts performed by them whilst on field. During the 20 minutes of the game spent on field,
males performed 88.5 attacking skills (approximately 4.43 maximal efforts per minute), while females performed 76.4 attacking skills (3.82 per
minute) (Appendix 2). Due to insufficient recovery of CP, the anaerobic glycolysis system would have been dominant for these efforts. Males can
tolerate more lactate hence perform more efforts. Furthermore, males had a higher average of 15.40 seconds in the speed endurance test compared to
17.19 seconds for females, indicating that males have greater lactate tolerance due to developed anaerobic adaptations including muscular hypertrophy
(Appendix 1). As men have a greater lactate tolerance, they can work at higher anaerobic intensities for longer durations, therefore perform more
maximal efforts such as repetitively

2. Touch Football Training Program Analysis
For this term's HPE unit, we have learnt about core physiological principles as well as fitness and training concepts, and how this would relate to touch
football. This knowledge was then utilised to design, evaluate and modify an individual one week training program (microcycle) to enhance
performance in touch football. The task of this assessment is to analyse the training program upon completion, by evaluating its strengths and
weaknesses and finally modifying this 'microcycle' to rectify any weaknesses that may have be identified.
Prior to designing the training program, fitness testing was completed. This tested the main fitness components that would be applied in physical
activity. It was important that this was done in order to find my strengths and weaknesses ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
The final training method performed for the day was a fartlek exercise. Each repetition was comprised of a 40 second period of full intensity with a
20 second period of slow jogging given as rest. This was repeated three times to complete a full set. It was noted in my training diary that this was a
fault due to the work to rest ratio set. Despite my aerobic capacity being deemed 'excellent', it was not practical to allow such a higher work than
rest. This is because of the training principle 'progressive overload' which implies that "the load needs to be slowly increased as we become
accustomed to the existing level of resistance to bring about further improvements." This suggests that training loads should become more intense over
a period of time, not increased too abruptly or with too much intensity. As the body has not been given time to adapt to this high training intensity of
2:1, it could lead to the possibility of injury. Implications of injury occurring may lead to fitness levels either plateauing or decreasing. This is due to
the training principle 'reversibility' which states that "fitness improvements will be lost as training

3. Energy Systems In Touch Football
1.0Introduction
This report focusses on the 3 energy systems of fitness before relating them to touch football. Touch football is a simple but fast paced game, where
the main objective is for one team to score more tries then their opponent. Scoring a tri is achieved by placing the ball in the opponents 'tri zone'.
Played on a 70m long by 50m wide field over a 45–minute time period, the game consists on two 20 minutes blocks of play with a five–minute half
time break.
2.0Three energy systems
Energy is defined as the capacity for vigorous activity, and to ensure a continuous and sufficient supply of energy for all daily activities, there are three
energy systems that work together. These systems are the ATP
–PC system, the anaerobic glycolytic system and the aerobic system. Each system
produces a different chemical energy from different sources at different speeds. Both the ATP
–CP system and anaerobic glycolytic systems are
anaerobic systems, meaning oxygen is not used to synthesise ATP. As a result, these systems produce energy quicker however they do not last very
long. Comparatively, the aerobic system heavily relies on oxygen to synthesise ATP. As the chemical process uses oxygen to produce energy, it is
more complex than the anaerobic processes. The aerobic system takes longer to produce energy ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Aerobic capacity can be defined as the ability to persist in physical activities that rely on oxygen to keep producing energy to fuel the whole body for
an extended period of time. Aerobic capacity uses the aerobic energy system, a system that is used for long–term energy and has unlimited amounts. As
the middles role is to align and drive their team both forward and backwards, they must have a strong aerobic base to rely on. A game of forty
minutes requires a long duration of energy and almost 20% of a touch game uses the aerobic energy

After being tested for power and speed through a timed 20m sprint; coordination, balance and agility via a T–test and cardiovascular endurance by
running the beep–test my results came back as average across the board. My 20–metre sprint time of 3.32 and beep–test result of 12.4 both came within
the range of all ATA players' results of 2.9 to 3.4 and 12.2 to 14.3 respectively (12PEMoodle, 2015). However, my agility results came back as
slower than the range of all ATA players. As a result, this means that I am less equipped for the positions link and centre, as they both require, not
only agility, but also balance and coordination too. Balance and coordination predominately derive from experience playing touch football, which I
have a limited amount of. Reasons for my below average results could have been due to the testing being done on dewy morning grass without studs
to gain traction in high speed situations like the speed and agility test. Touch football has three positions, middle, link and wing. Middle and link share
the same physiological characteristics being: coordination/balance, agility, power and anaerobic endurance, whereas, wing is slightly different,
requiring speed, cardiovascular endurance as well as agility and power. Training for the four main components of fitness for wing is the key to

Red Bull targets only a particular segment of market and therefore makes its product only available at those places where the target can be reached.
The energy drink can be bought at colleges, supermarkets and is mainly associated to extreme sports. In particular, the energy drink has also known a
tremendous success in India, where the segment is the fastest growing in the category, due to India's youth centric population and fast urbanization.
Red Bull was actually the brand that created energy drink category in India (Docstoc, April 2012).
The company exemplifies the typical branding success story. Since its inception, Red Bull's successful market strategy and ways of penetrating the
lucrative energy drink market has demonstrated the company's ability to think outside the competitive box through its innovative branding and sales

Due to touch football players' not needing muscle mass, the aim of these exercises will be to gain strength and muscular endurance to aid the
components of fitness of a wing. To do this, I have firstly decided to enroll a weights session into each week, instead of just one per week for the
first three weeks. By doing this, there will be no time for reversibility, allowing me to grow stronger and have fitter muscles through progressive
overload. I will achieve this by doing two sets for each exercise, one in the low rep range (1–5) to gain strength, and one in the high rep range (20–30)
to acquire muscular endurance and cardiovascular endurance. Each two weeks I will progressively add weight to each exercise for overloading.
Next, the plyometric session, which is every two weeks, will now be weekly and stay as is by using the agility ladder but also include box jump

Term 3 commenced with each boy studying HPE in year 11, participating in the sport Touch Football. In this subject the cohort has been analysing the
relationships between different energy systems and components of fitness that need to be acquired to successfully participate in the physical activity.
Components of fitness are described as basic qualities that demonstrate the ability to complete daily tasks with energy, reduced health risks, and
participate in a variety of physical activities (1). This presentation will give a thorough reflection on Touch football and what energy systems are of
most importance to the sport. I will also be reflecting on the components of fitness that I personally need to work on which is observed from primary

The energy systems used by the human body is categorised into the intensity of the activity performed and the time of which it takes to complete. In
sports, she relationship between intensity and time is in most cases inversely proportional seen in the diagram. An example of a sport that is of high
intensity and is completed in a short time period is a 100m sprint. In comparison an example of an activity or sport that is of low intensity but takes a

Long distance running is an excellent way to boost a human's cardiovascular stamina and increase the strength in an athletes fast–twitch muscle system
in his/her legs. The reason it is so effective in improving someone's health is because it keeps the heart beating at a high rate for a long period of
time. This sends oxygen quickly to all the body's key receptors which is essential to maintain motor skills, and better a human's growth and blood
flow. It also enables the heart to adapt and strengthen to be able to handle such a strain for such a long period of time. This helps athletes keep
energy during games and practice without getting as tired. Long distance running is usually done as a team or in smaller groups throughout the
team. For example, the backs receivers will run in one group and the lineman and linebackers will run in the other. The distance teams run always
varies based on the coaches, how the practice has gone so far, and the weather, but usually when I say "a long distance run", I mean at the very

11. Aristotle 's Theory Of Happiness
Happiness is intangible. It cannot be measured, touched, nor can it be profitable. Yet, it is the soul thing people seek in life. This prompts the question:
how can one truly be happy? The Greek philosopher, Aristotle, argues in the Nicomachean Ethics that in order to be virtuous, we must act moderately.
However, Bataille, a 20th century French philosopher, argues in The Accursed Share thathuman life is inevitably excessive, and that we need to waste
gloriously. These adverse theories cause a paradoxical outcome regarding how one can achieve immense happiness: to be virtuous one must act both
moderately and excessively. Over 2,300 years has passed since Aristotle wroteNicomachean Ethics, yet his theory of happiness is still relevant today.
In these lectures, Aristotle explores the purpose of human existence. Finding this purpose would later result in discovering how one should act in order
to achieve happiness. Aristotle argues that virtues, such as honor, pleasure, and understanding, are only chosen "for the sake of happiness, supposing
that through them we shall be happy"(Aristotle, 8). He claims that everyone would agree that all goods, like wealth and pleasure, are means towards
obtaining pure happiness. Therefore, happiness is always the end itself. This revelation would in turn help find the function of the human being. On the
search to find the function of the human being, Aristotle first needed to discover how we are different from a horse, or an ox. Like these

Therefore, cardiovascular is one of the five main fitness components in touch. Stamina is "The ability of body systems to process, deliver, store,
and utilize energy." Stamina plays a big role in touch as you need to store energy for quick short explosive runs or to even last a long time on the
field. Usually Centre players have the best stamina. Speed is "The ability to minimize the time cycle of a repeated movement." Speed in touch is
usually used out on the wing by wingers. They are usually the fastest players and they can go from a certain distance from point A to point B over a
short amount of time. Coordination is "The ability to combine several distinct movement patterns into a singular distinct movement." Hand eye
coordination is a massive component in touch football. As in attack you need to be watching the defenders and the ball. Agility is "The ability to
minimize transition time from one movement pattern to another." Agility comes into touch football very often especially in attack. It can be used for

Touch analysis
Touch Football was only formalized in the 1970's and is now played in all of Australia. Coaches of Rugby teams used variations of for offseason
activities. The game came to be known as Touch Rugby/Football, now simply known as touch. The main differences in the rules of the game of touch
and rugby league is that there is no tackling you have to touch the attacking player instead, kicking is not allowed, the dummy half cannot get touched
and the ball is not allowed to drop to the ground.
In the game of touch there are three positions and two players at each position on the field, the positions are middle, link and wing. The main roles
for the middle are to ruck/drive the ball down the field in attack and to close down the defence. The predominant energy system used at a
professional level is the lactic acid system but as they are subbed off regularly and at a senior high school level we do not have the luxury of enough
players to sub on the energy system used changes to the aerobic system. Knowledge of rucking patterns and organisation helps make a great middle.
The key roles in the position of link are to set up tries for the wing position and controlling the defensive and offensive line. The focal energy system
used by the link position is the lactic acid system. The ability to find gaps in the defence separates good links from great ones.
Lastly, the wing position, finishes off the set plays by scoring

ABOUT PHOTOGRAPHY
Photography is the symbolization, science and practice of making tough pictures by recording light or other electromagnetic radiation, either artificially
by method for a light–sensitive material, for example, photographic film, or electronically by method for a picture sensor. Ordinarily, a lens is utilized
to center the light reflected or emitted from items into a true picture on the light–touchy surface inside a Polaroid amid a timed introduction. The result
in an electronic picture sensor is an electrical charge at every pixel, which is electronically handled and put away in an advanced picture document for
ensuing show or handling.
The result in a photographic emulsion is an imperceptible inert picture, which is later artificially "created" into an unmistakable picture, either negative
or positive relying upon the reason for the photographic material and the system for transforming. A negative picture on film is customarily used to
photographically make a positive picture on a paper base, known as a print, either by utilizing an enlarger or by contact printing.

(Amezdroz, 2010) Passing and catching is an essential part of being a middle, whether it is receiving from the dummy half or passing out to a wing;
these movements require limbs to move in the right direction and at the right speed to be preformed effectively. Energy System Requirements A game
of touch requires the use of all energy systems at once but in varied amounts. The body will automatically choose which energy system it requires the
most based on the fitness components used. It has been identified above that the three main components used by a middle are; Aerobic capacity,
muscular endurance and coordination. In figure 12.5 it shows the relationship between components of fitness and energy systems. Both aerobic
capacity and muscular endurance relate to the Aerobic system. The aerobic system uses oxygen and is generally one of low–mid intensity and/or of a
longer duration. Middles utilise this energy system because they continuously require energy production at an almost equal rate. 2.3 Wing Position

Technology use in physical education New technology in Physical education is playing a big role in classes. One of the most affordable and
effective would be a simple tape recorder. With the use of a tape recorder students can see the mistakes they're making in things such as a throwing
motion or swinging form[4]. Studies show that students do find this more effective than having someone just telling them what they are doing
wrong and trying to correct it. Educators also found the use of other technologies such as pedometers and heart rate monitors very successful, using
them to make step and heart rate goals for students. Other technologies that can be used in a Physical Education setting would include projectors,
GPS and even gaming systems such as Kinect for XBOX360, Wii Fit and Dance Dance Revolution. Projectors can be used to show students things
such as proper form or how to play certain games. GPS systems can be used to get students active in an outdoor setting and active exergames can be

3. What additional information or tests would you request?
Considering a diagnosis of dehydration, along with the fact that Joe seems to be consuming a lot of caffeine, a diuretic that causes fluid loss, the student
may suggest testing Na, Ca, and other electrolyte levels in the blood, as well as levels of caffeine or other metabolites in the blood and urine. This
latter information may help the student determine or at least estimate Joe's caffeine intake.
The student can begin to research and accumulate knowledge about dehydration as well as the effects of caffeine in the body. New knowledge about
caffeine's role in possibly interfering with iron absorption and decreasing insulin levels may lead the student to consider additional tests for iron and
blood insulin levels. The student may also come to the conclusion that such tests may not be needed, necessary or specific to caffeine intake.
To further explain Joe's rapid heart rate, the student may request an electrocardiogram to investigate any presenting heart arrhythmia's.

Information systems are state of the art. The recipients of this information have to be able to act quickly to stay on top. Thus, they have to be very
team centered (to analyze the information and to translate it into new products and services), and they have to have a great deal of leeway with respect
to decision making and authority (to respond promptly to customer needs).
A growing and successful construction company prided itself on building expensive homes geared to client needs and adaptable to client wants.
However, client requirements were initially not addressed in depth, methods to solicit this information were not developed (e.g., the use of software
that would enable clients to imagine "being inside the house" as it was being built), contact was initiated only when another payment was due, and only
the owner could fix the final price of the house. The net result was that the owner, in effect, convinced buyers what they should want, thereby
dramatically increasing the number of client–initiated changes as the clients along the way became clearer about what they wanted.
Information about customer–initiated changes was frequently communicated incorrectly or late to the field, even more increasing construction costs

Speed is a necessity in touch because getting past the opposing defensive line is key. Also, quick reactions with passing rucking etc will help the
team's performance. Cardiorespiratory endurance is a measurement of how well your heart, lungs, and muscles work together to keep your body active
over an extended period of time.
For a touch football player to be successful in the middle position several components of fitness are needed for the player to be effective. One of the
important fitness components for touch football is coordination. Coordination is needed for all positions in touch football to help your nervous system
and your muscles to work together, so that you can perform specific movements smoothly and accurately (Amezdroz, 2004). Examples of coordination
in touch football are hand–eye coordination whilst catching and passing the ball and touching an opposing player. Also, foot and leg coordination
whilst running up the field and back on side. In recent fitness tests coordination is measured by the alternate hand rebound test. Results showed that I
got a score of 27 with my hand–eye coordination which is a rating of excellent (Appendix One). In a 30–minute game I made 44 passes and 45 catches

31. Touch Football Essay
Part One
Touch Football is a team sport consisting of two teams of 6 players on the field at a given time. It is a high intensity game, involving bursts of
maximal speed and power. During a game of Touch Football, all three energy systems work towards energy production required for muscular
contractions, however one energy system will always be dominant and will be determined by the intensity and duration of the effort performed.
The ATP–CP system, fuelled by Creatine Phosphate (CP), is dominant at intensities above 95% of maximum heart rate (MHR) for durations up to 10
seconds. This system would have been dominant during the 11 entries into speed zone 4 where the player sprinted above 18km/hr (Appendix 2). These
quick bursts of speed may ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
This can be measured by the 20m shuttle run, where the scores achieved by an elite male and female player were 12.8 and 10.8 respectively
(Appendix 2). This higher relative VO2 maximum of males is due to cardiac hypertrophy (larger and stronger heart), which increases stroke
volume per beat, consequently increasing oxygen circulation. Therefore, male players have a greater aerobic capacity, delaying fatigue and
enabling faster recovery between repeated maximal efforts. This is important in Touch Football, which requires many quick bursts of sprinting,
with minimal recovery time. The male players spent an average of 20:41 minutes on field in comparison to 18:17 minutes spent by female players
(Appendix 2), yet men subbed more frequently (12 average subs in males versus 11 in females) (Appendix 2). Therefore, they spent less time off
field recovering per sub (1:56 minutes) compared to women (2:15 minutes) (Appendix 2). By having a higher VO2 maximum, more oxygen is
available to replenish CP stores and clear blood lactate, proving that males with a higher VO2 maximum recovered at a faster rate, therefore spent less
time recovering per sub. Hence, they can perform a greater number of high intensity efforts in the game such as repetitively sprinting to ruck, thus

Golf is not actively perceived as a physiologically demanding game with an historic view that the body composition of a golfer is in no way linked to
their skilfulness, many professional players have adding validity to this notion by adopting less than athletic conditioning (Jang et al, 2014).
Contrariwise, Smith (2010) analysed the precise musculoskeletal movements required for elite performance, noting them as significantly complex.
Adding further to this notion, Ferdinands & Kwon (2012) expressed golf to be the most technically demanding, high precision sport that exists.

Power is very much controlled by the factors of force and velocity (Zumerchik, 2002), this fact causes an enigma within a golf swing. Principally,
because force and velocity are interconnected by scale, with maximal force and maximal velocity located at opposite ends. Practically, the golf
swing has high velocity, however this does compromise force generation. Subjectively, there appears to be a gap in research connecting rate of
force development (RFD) and the golf swing. As displayed in the work of Aagaard (2003) it takes around 300 milliseconds for the application of
maximal strength to occur, yet on average a figure of 0.2 seconds is required from the downswing transition to the development of maximal club
head velocity (McTeigue et al, 1994). Leary et al (2002) appears to corroborate the importance of this 0.2 second timeframe by showing players who
create high ground reaction forces within this window exhibit greater CHV. By means of this inference it is not likely that maximal force can be
applied in a golf swing.

of performance), as identified by literature, to shared functional screening methods used by certified golf coaches the USPGA. With

With these new regulations implemented the NFL has stood strong by enforcing these laws and never being lenient in its disciplines whenever a
rule has been broken. If any of these player safety rules have been broken recently, the NFL has come down swiftly and harshly against the culprits.
These swift and efficient actions performed by the NFL have taken notice by the parents and fans of the sport. These forms of punishments come
through fines, suspensions, and in extreme cases bans from the league for years or even indefinitely. Recently a defensive coordinator on the New
Orleans Saints was found to have installed a "bounty program" on his defense. This program would fund the defensive players with bonuses for
various actions in a game. Although this may seem okay, it is actually highly illegal in the NFL. This bounty program would fund the players for
knocking out other athletes they were competing against. Injuring players was one of many forms of bonuses that players would be able to accrue.
The problem with this in sports is because football is already violent enough. Now teams are actually "gunning" to injure others on purpose. The NFL's
quick and extreme punishments for the creation and participation in this bounty case definitely put the player's safety aspect into the mainstream of
what the NFL is worrying about these days. A major factor that has begun to dominate the argument in favor of these

Rugby. Coaches for both league and union utilize many variations of touch at training as it can be used to improve skills while also having contact
removed to avoid the possibility of injury. The overall aim in a game of Touch Football is for your team to score more touchdowns than your
opponents. This is achieved by placing the ball in your opponents `Touchdown Zone. Touchdowns can be scored in a multiple amount of ways like
rucking, wrapping and switching the ball to create space to score.

There are three main energy systems used in a game of touch football which consist of the creatine phosphate (ATP PC) system, lactic acid system
and the aerobic system. Each system plays a vital role during game play. Every muscle in your body requires energy to perform all movements, and to
do this, the energy is produced by the breakdown of a molecule called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is found in all cells which is a chemical form
of muscular activity and performs mostly all functions in the human body. It contains 3 phosphate groups and adenosine. ATP is stored in the muscles
and lasts for approximately 10–30 seconds. Carbohydrates, fats and proteins, are all producers of ATP from the food we eat; however Creatine

At the begging of this system it reacts quite slowly, however after certain duration of time it produces a large amount of ATP ready for the Cycle of
the 3 energy systems to endure. The aerobic system does not contribute greatly to a game of touch football as the activity does not last up to duration
of 5 minutes. In relation to my performance in a game of touch football, I have found that my energy systems are coping rather well, as I am able to
continuously carry out fast wrucks most of the time, therefore producing the right amount of ATP in my body.
Several fitness tests were completed such as power, aerobic capacity, muscular endurance, agility etc., in order for us to identify our strengths and
weaknesses and which certain components of fitness would be vital in a game of touch football. Fitness tests are essential in all areas of sports for

This test showed which players would be more suitable to the middle position, as they are fitter. It is also specific to the nature of touch football,
due to the short sharp turns. The second aerobic capacity test we completed was the 12 minute run. For this test we had to run for 12 minutes trying
to complete the maximum distance we could. My ratings for this test were good, (see appendix 1). These tests can be related to touch football, as
touch football requires aerobic fitness because players need to be able to last a 40 minute game of continuous running. Even though in touch you have
a number of subs, you are continuously subbing on and off. You do not get much rest, as the game is very vigorous. Aerobic capacity is mainly for the
middle position in touch football, as they have to run a lot more during the game and are the fittest players on the field, (SportingPulse, 2013).
Muscular endurance is being able to work a muscle or muscle group for a long period of time at less than maximum effort, (Amezdrox, G. Dickens, S,
Hosford, G. and Davis, D. 2012). Muscular endurance was tested by completing a sit up and push up test. My rating for the sit up test were super and
for the push up test my rating was excellent, (see appendix 1). These tests were chosen instead of others because if you have a strong core whilst

their interpretations. Consequently, appearances are increasingly seen to constitute personality and perhaps, religion, equating how one looks with how
one is. This is a process open to positive and negative consequences alike, from parody and masquerade to deception and misunderstanding. In a sense,
fashion is associated with uncertainty and confusion concerning social values, especially concerning what is real or authentic. Some say that the nature
of fashion is a В‘depthless culture', stressing that fascination of fashion as the fascination of surfaces, of packing and of seduction, which leads to the
suggestion that nothing defines us so instantly than as our clothes. Don't you think that when we meet someone new, before you have a chance to say

If you have not seen Dazed and Confused than you are really missing out. It is a great movie that relates from everything to High School to Sex,

It is a fact that most successful and wealthy men have a high sex drive naturally; but you find out that any of them who fail to control or channel
this energy properly ends up frustrated. They lose all they have worked for, find themselves in relationships that destroy all they have worked for
and when they are supposed to reap the profit of their labor, they start another round of planting season. The reason is found in the word of God. It
is written that not a letter in the word of God shall go unfulfilled. Money, power and woman move together. They are such good guests that we want
them to be our friend but the desire for them must be properly managed. And of these special guests could send any of their host to an untimely
grave, become trodden and generally destroys a glorious destiny. God Says in all we do, we should do all to his glory. As a home entrepreneur and
builder, our daily activities call for constant appraisal so that we do not derail from our calling, and make the Angel assigned to us be angry. This is
