Module Descriptor This first year module will equip students with the underpinning

knowledge associated with principles of anatomy and physiology in

relation to sport participation, performance and coaching. The module

plays a vital role in preparing students for further study in specialised

modules in each of the pathways. This serves both to introduce key

concepts in anatomy and physiology to students, and to highlight how

the performer must manage each aspect to maximise performance. The

module will be assessed through a practical laboratory report and an end

of module examination.

Module Aims To enable students to: Develop knowledge and understanding of the structure and function of the skeletal, muscular, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems. Following on from this the module will develop knowledge and understanding of the effects of exercise on the body’s systems and this will underpin the scientific principles of performance and coaching

Indicative Content Structure of the skeleton. Functions of the

skeleton: support, protection, and attachment for skeletal muscle, leverage; source of blood cells and the storage of minerals.

Types of joint, structure, function, movement and factors affecting mobility.

Types of muscle tissue, structure of skeletal muscle from gross structure to cellular structure of muscle fibre. Muscle fibre type to include fast glycolytic fibres and the contraction of skeletal muscle. Functions of muscle.

Structure and function of the cardiovascular system, heart, blood and blood vessels. Structure and function of the lungs and conditions needed for optimum gaseous exchange. Calculate lung volumes and capacities.

Describe how cardiovascular system ensures the delivery and removal of respiratory gases and metabolites and catabolites at rest and during exercise.

Increased blood supply; increase in muscle pliability; increased range of movement; muscle fibre micro tears, heart rate anticipatory response; activity response; increased blood pressure; vasoconstriction; vasodilation. Increase in breathing rate (neural and chemical control); increased tidal volume.

Cardiac hypertrophy; increase in stroke volume; increase in cardiac output, decrease in resting heart rate; capillarisation; increase in blood volume; reduction in resting blood pressure; decreased recovery time.

Hypertrophy; increase in tendon strength; increase in myoglobin stores; increased number of mitochondria; increased storage of glycogen and fat; increased muscle strength; increased tolerance to lactic acid.

Increase in bone calcium stores; increased

studentsStudentsstudents Understanding practical performance is the start point to understanding how to improve performance. This module will allow students to gain valuable knowledge underpinning sporting performance in a practical environment. Students will identify movement patterns associated with various sports and ascertain why they are important. Practical delivery will allow the students to test the skills in action. The module will further explore how to incorporate this new found knowledge into practical delivery, allowing students to recognise success and failures, and also how to review their sessions using a simple reflective model. This will in turn prepare students for more detailed session planning, delivery and critically reviewing at Level 5 (Physical Instructing and Fitness)

Learning Strategy

This module will be based on a combination of lectures, seminars and practical sessions. Lectures will provide the basis of students’ knowledge of the coaching process and seminars will complement lectures and build students’ confidence in challenging assumptions of the coaching process. Practical demonstrations and sessions will show how theory, knowledge and professional practice are integrated. Practical delivery will give students the opportunity to emulate professional and disciplinary practice. The diversity of teaching approaches combined with individual study will ensure all module aims are achieved and a rigorous approach to the acquisition of a range of subject specific, cognitive and transferable skills. Students will be expected to undertake formative assessment on the College VLE which will also be used to post additional resources and interactive workshops. Moodle will provide additional support to the student through engagement with key coaching clips and examples.
