This document discusses how to build confidence through success in training, practicing skills and strategies, and maintaining an optimal level of confidence. It suggests individuals can improve confidence by believing in themselves, exhibiting positive emotions when under pressure, and using positive self-talk even during difficult competitive situations. Confidence is linked to performance through an "inverted U" relationship, so the key is achieving the right amount of confidence without being overconfident.

Sports coaching pedagogy motivation
Motivation is a psychological factor that drives organisms to achieve goals and sustain goal-directed behaviors. There are two forms of motivation: intrinsic motivation, which comes from within and involves personal pride and self-improvement, and extrinsic motivation, which involves external rewards like money or praise. Motivation levels affect performance, following an inverted U relationship with arousal. Personality and experiences also influence motivation, and coaches can use an understanding of motivation to help improve athlete and team performance.

Jersey Womens Rep Team
The document discusses building confidence and mental toughness in the Jersey Women's Representative Team. It analyzes the team's current performance and mental state, identifies areas for improvement, and proposes an action plan. The plan includes setting achievable goals, visualizing success, practicing positive habits, and taking responsibility for outcomes in order to develop confidence both individually and as a team. The overall aim is to think and play like winners.
Self efficacy
Self-efficacy theory, proposed by Albert Bandura, holds that an individual's belief in their own ability to complete tasks and reach goals (self-efficacy) influences their motivation and behavior. Higher self-efficacy leads to greater effort and persistence when facing challenges. Self-efficacy can be increased through enactive mastery experiences, vicarious learning by observing others, verbal persuasion, and managing arousal states. Training programs aim to boost self-efficacy through hands-on experiences. The Pygmalion and Galatea effects show that higher expectations lead to better performance outcomes.
Motivation in sports
The document discusses motivation in sports. It defines motivation and its components of direction and intensity. It explores various approaches to understanding motivation, including personal, trait-centered, and situation-centered views. An interactional view is presented where motivation is determined by the interaction between situational and trait factors. Major motives for sport participation are improving skills, having fun, and developing fitness. Intrinsic and extrinsic motivation are compared, and guidelines for building motivation are outlined. Finally, several theories of achievement motivation are listed.
Expectancy theory
Expectancy theory is a motivation theory that states individuals are motivated if they believe good performance will lead to desired outcomes. It was first proposed by Victor Vroom and includes three variables: expectancy, the belief that effort will lead to performance; instrumentality, the belief performance will lead to rewards; and valence, the value placed on rewards. The theory emphasizes relating rewards directly to performance and ensuring rewards are deserved. Factors like skills, support, resources, and information impact expectancy perceptions. Vroom introduced these variables to explain how motivation is created psychologically through individuals' beliefs about expectancy, instrumentality, and valence interacting.
Self confidence
This document discusses self-confidence and self-efficacy in sport. It defines self-efficacy as confidence in a specific situation, compared to general self-confidence. Bandura's four factors that influence self-efficacy are discussed: performance accomplishments, vicarious experiences, verbal persuasion, and emotional arousal. Vealey's sport-specific model of sport confidence is presented, relating trait confidence, the sport situation, state confidence, performance, and results feeding back into trait confidence. An example is given applying this model to a cricketer's confidence levels and goal-setting in different batting situations.

What is Self-Confidence?
Two main things contribute to self-confidence: self-efficacy and self-esteem.
We gain a sense of self-efficacy when we see ourselves (and others similar to ourselves) mastering skills and achieving goals that matter in those skill areas. This is the confidence that, if we learn and work hard in a particular area, we'll succeed; and it's this type of confidence that leads people to accept difficult challenges, and persist in the face of setbacks.
This overlaps with the idea of self-esteem, which is a more general sense that we can cope with what's going on in our lives, and that we have a right to be happy. Partly, this comes from a feeling that the people around us approve of us, which we may or may not be able to control. However, it also comes from the sense that we are behaving virtuously, that we're competent at what we do, and that we can compete successfully when we put our minds to it.
Some people believe that self-confidence can be built with affirmations and positive thinking. At Mind Tools, we believe that there's some truth in this, but that it's just as important to build self-confidence by setting and achieving goals – thereby building competence. Without this underlying competence, you don't have self-confidence: you have shallow over-confidence, with all of the issues, upset and failure that this brings.

Self Efficacy and Sport Confidence
This document discusses self-efficacy and sport confidence. It defines self-efficacy as one's belief in their ability to perform a task and sport confidence as the degree of certainty about one's sports abilities. Sport confidence has two factors - trait (innate overall confidence) and state (confidence in a specific situation). State sport confidence is determined by trait confidence, the sport situation, and one's competitive orientation. Performance outcomes influence future trait and state confidence levels through perceived success, attributions, and satisfaction. Strategies to increase confidence include mastery, styling skills, preparation, social reinforcement, leadership, and environmental comfort.

State sports confidence refers to confidence in a specific situation and can change. A person's trait confidence and competitive orientation interact with the sports situation to determine their state confidence and performance. Strategies like mastery of skills, environmental comfort, and social reinforcement can be used to increase an athlete's confidence after injury.
Confidence presentation
Confidence comes from past success and a belief in one's abilities. It is developed through practice, past performance, and the affirmations of others. Doubt and unrealistic expectations can undermine confidence. To build confidence, athletes should focus on past successes, set achievable goals, maintain positive self-talk, and trust in their preparation. Confident athletes believe in themselves, focus on success, and do not let doubts interfere with their performance. Developing confidence is a process that involves overcoming doubts and incorporating mental strategies.

Goal setting involves establishing specific and measurable performance targets to improve skills and motivate athletes. It is beneficial to set both long-term and short-term goals that are realistic and prioritized in key areas. Goals should be monitored and evaluated regularly to assess progress and allow for adjustments if needed. Maintaining self-confidence through effective self-talk, relaxation, and mental imagery can help athletes work towards their goals and improve performance.
Social and cultural influence on identity
The document discusses how personal identity is shaped by various external influences throughout life. In particular, family has a strong influence during childhood as children tend to adopt their families' views. As people age, peers and media have a greater impact as they influence choices in clothing, music, language and more. Culture and religion also aim to keep people within certain boundaries and can influence traditional behaviors and values. Societal values come from different groups in a community and can represent laws, with people bonding over shared beliefs and values. However, conflicts can arise when individual or group values differ from those of society.

Respiratory system
The document summarizes the respiratory system and breathing process. It describes the major parts of the conducting system that warm, filter, and channel air through the nasal cavity, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi, bronchioles, and alveoli. The alveoli are where oxygen exchange occurs between the air and blood. Inspiration happens when the diaphragm contracts and intercostal muscles open the ribcage, decreasing lung pressure and pulling air in. Expiration occurs when these muscles relax, increasing pressure and pushing air out.
Cardiovascular system
The cardiorespiratory system is made up of the circulatory system, heart, blood, and blood vessels. The heart pumps oxygen-rich blood to all parts of the body through the arteries and oxygen-poor blood is returned to the heart through the veins. Gas exchange occurs in the capillaries where oxygen is delivered to cells and carbon dioxide is removed from cells. The circulatory system functions to transport nutrients, oxygen, wastes and more throughout the body.
The social ecological model
The social-ecological model represents a multifaceted approach to understanding factors that influence physical activity behavior. It considers interactions between individual characteristics and behaviors and the social and physical environments, as well as policy-level influences. The model examines four levels of influence: individual, social environment, physical environment, and policy domains. Effective physical activity interventions are multidimensional and understand that many interrelated factors across these domains influence individual behavior.
Muscle fibre types and contractions
This document discusses muscle fiber types and muscle contractions. It notes that there are two main types of muscle fibers - slow-twitch and fast-twitch fibers - which are suited to different physical activities based on intensity. It also outlines the three types of muscle contractions: isotonic contractions where the muscle shortens or lengthens, and isometric contractions where the muscle contracts without movement.
Discoving the muscle
Muscles are always attached at two ends by tendons - an origin and an insertion - which allow them to pull against bones and create movement. They work in pairs, with an agonist muscle contracting to cause movement and an antagonist relaxing to prevent injury. Inside, muscles are made of fascicles containing bundles of fibers called myofibrils. Myofibrils contain sarcomeres, the contractile units, which shorten when cross-bridges on myosin filaments pull actin filaments inward. This process occurs along the entire muscle fiber, causing contraction.
The muscular system
This document discusses the muscular system and key muscles. It begins by asking questions about how we move, what muscles are made of, and main muscles. It then explains that muscles allow for movement, support and posture, and involuntary functions like breathing and digestion. Muscles are made of microscopic fibers that bundle to form motor units activated by nerve impulses. Some main muscles discussed include the pectorals, biceps, abdominals, quadriceps, hamstrings, and others. The document concludes that the muscular system acts on bones to allow movement and other functions, and muscles vary in fiber usage based on task demands.
Neuromuscular control
Neuromuscular control involves understanding how muscle structures create movement through coordination. Messages from the brain initiate muscle contractions by motor neurons stimulating muscle fibers in motor units. The number and size of motor units varies depending on a muscle's function, with large muscles for gross movements having more motor units than smaller muscles. Muscles contract according to the all-or-nothing principle, where motor units either contract fully or not at all depending on whether nerve impulses reach the threshold level.
Muscular system 1
The document discusses the classifications of skeletal muscles. There are three main types: fusiform muscles which have fibers running the length of the muscle belly designed for mobility; penniform muscles which have fibers running at angles to the tendon and are designed for strength and power, including unipennate, bipennate, and multipennate muscles; and radiate muscles which are a compromise between fusiform and pennate capable of strength and power without compromising mobility.
Subjective measures
This document discusses subjective measures of physical activity. Subjective measures depend on perceptions and include self-reports, recalls, and proxy reports. Self-reports such as diaries provide context but can be unreliable due to inaccurate recording. Recall surveys are inexpensive for large populations but unreliable due to potential bias and misinterpretation. Reactivity and social desirability bias can also influence the validity of subjective measures. Objective measures such as accelerometers provide more accurate data but are not suitable for large populations.
Objective measures of pa
Objective measures of physical activity include heart rate telemetry, accelerometers, pedometers, and direct observation. Heart rate telemetry uses a watch to measure heart rate during exercise to estimate energy expenditure. Accelerometers provide detailed information on frequency, duration, and intensity of activity. Pedometers count steps to measure distance walked. Direct observation is the most accurate but least practical as it involves directly observing and recording a person's physical activity. These objective measures are used to evaluate physical activity guidelines, health relationships, and the effectiveness of interventions.
The nervous system
The document discusses the nervous system and its key components and functions. It is divided into three main parts:
1. The central nervous system (CNS) which controls all body activities and consists of the brain and spinal cord.
2. The peripheral nervous system which connects the CNS to the rest of the body via nerves and sense organs like the skin, eyes, and tongue.
3. The autonomic nervous system which controls involuntary body functions like breathing and heart rate.
Fitt and halo
This document discusses different aspects of physical activity intensity including domains of activity, dimensions of fitness, measuring intensity, and metabolic equivalent levels. It defines low, moderate, and vigorous intensity based on talk test, heart rate as a percentage of maximum heart rate, and MET levels. The key point is that intensity has the most impact on long term health benefits and is measured using various physiological indicators.
The national physical activity guidelines
The document outlines physical activity (PA) and sedentary behavior guidelines for various age groups from children to older adults. For children ages 0-5, it recommends floor-based activities for ages 0-1, at least 3 hours of active play per day spread across ages 1-3 and 3-5, and limiting screen time to 1 hour per day for ages 2-5. For children 5-12 and youth 12-18, it recommends at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous PA per day. For overweight or obese children and youth, it recommends more PA than currently engaged in. For adults 18-65, it recommends at least 30 minutes of moderate PA on most days. For older adults 65+, it recommends
Benefits of pa
Regular physical activity provides significant health benefits by reducing the risk of heart disease, diabetes, some cancers and other health issues. It also helps maintain mobility in older age and promotes psychological well-being. While technology has reduced physical demands of daily life, maintaining regular physical activity is important for both physical and mental health.
Joint actions and movement
This document defines and provides examples of various types of movements of the human body, including flexion/extension, abduction/adduction, circumduction, rotation, pronation/supination, inversion/eversion, dorsi/plantar flexion, and elevation/depression. Flexion decreases a joint angle while extension increases it. Abduction moves a limb away from the body midline and adduction moves it towards. Circumduction is a circular motion at the end of a limb. Rotation occurs around a central axis like the shoulder or neck. Pronation and supination are hand rotations around the thumb. Inversion and eversion twist the ankle in or out. Dorsi and plantar flexion raise or point
Joints structure and classification
A joint is formed where two or more bones come into contact and are attached by ligaments or cartilage. There are several types of joints including fibrous joints which have no movement, cartilaginous joints which allow limited movement, and synovial joints which are freely movable and lubricated by synovial fluid within a joint capsule. Common synovial joints include ball-and-socket joints like the shoulder, hinge joints like the knee, and gliding joints between wrist and ankle bones.
Functions and types of bones
The skeletal system has several key functions: providing protection for organs, storing minerals, and providing structure and support for muscle movement. There are different types of bones including long bones found in the limbs, short bones in the hands and feet, flat bones in the skull and pelvis, and irregular bones like those in the spine. Movement is enabled by muscles pulling on bones.
Anatomical positions
The document discusses anatomical viewpoints for examining the human body. It describes different perspectives including anterior, posterior, medial, lateral, proximal, distal, superior, and inferior. These viewpoints provide a framework for analyzing the body's skeletal system from various angles such as the front, back, inner or outer sides, attached versus free ends of limbs, and top versus bottom of the body. The document also mentions the anatomical position as a reference point.

Confidence
- 1. Confidence
- 2. Building Confidence Self-confidence is the belief individuals possess that they will be successful They believe in themselves physically and mentally They exhibit positive emotions They remain focused under pressure Are more likely to achieve goals and stay on task for long periods
- 3. Confidence and the ‘inverted U’ Confidence levels and performance (like arousal) can be linked to the inverted- U shape It’s important that athletes reach an optimum level of confidence (not under or over-confident)
- 4. Improving confidence Success is critical Practice and succeed in training: Skills Set plays Strategies Psychological skills Simulation should be used when training these ‘successful’ practices so these can be hopefully replicated in competition
- 5. Building confidence Thinking and acting positively even when under pressure or negative competition conditions Use positive self-talk Train adequately Be well drilled about game plans and strategies Practice (simulate) various physically and mentally demanding scenarios
