Circuit Work. This week bumblebee decided on circuit work with incorporating a bit of NFL skills thrown in to mix a lil somethin somethin up. It was a three station set up:
  1. Tackle and push drill. This involved Our aerobic system and atp. The idea was to run up and back on an angle. everytime you ran up you either pushed a bbump pad with raised elbows palms in or youd do a squat lift with a paerson laying on a tacklebag. this was completed at pace about 3 times of each type of push/lift.
  2. The run. Cones were set up to form a grid about 15 metres in length. every 5 was another cone. at the blue cones a push up was performed and at white a sit up was performed. You could really tell the lactic acid was building up in your pectorials after a few push ups. This also is good for Your aerobic system and used atp because it was cinstant activity.
  3. An active recovery. A slow jog and drink break.

I felt this was a good activity and felt what i was supposed to from the excercises. The following by a slight game of nfl really summed up a great morning of TEACHING ME TO SPORT

Four types of training

B-B-B-B-B-B BASKETBALL TIME.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Zone, man-2-man, 2 3 1 zone, 221 zone, full court trap half court trap. Defensive play is key to all sports. Each one of these defensive plays is a different stratergy to beat the other team. The man to man pressure worked best for our team, it just seemed the simpliest. Man to man is an example of continous training as you are stuck to your man or women and follow her or him.

Tbh imo i thought basketball was a bit boring after a while doin the same defence technique.

This went in hand with the four types of training:
1. Fartlek:
a method of athletic training (especially for runners) in which strenuous effort and normal effort alternate in a continuous exercise

2.Continous:
Continuous training means the person training uses 60-80% of their energy for a period of at least 20 minutes at least three or four times a week

3.Interval:
exercise session where the intensity and duration of exercise are conciously alternated between harder and easier work

4. Resistance:
exercises that cause the muscles to work against resistance (eg. from lifting weights or lifting one's own body weight0

OFFSIDE FOOTBALL


Footy, footy, footy, run and footy was on the mind of these young adults. Sledging was high, confidence was high and most of all so was the funfactor at a solid 7.5 outt of a possible 10. The basis of this activity, FITNESS!!!!!1! Interval training to be specific. Boy was it sweaty. Team 1 lead by the inaugural red hot ranga, emerged victorious with developing defencive stratergies employed by the bumble bee.


This activitiy made me run about 5120 steps. if i assume that this is 1m per step i ran a country mile. if i was told im running 5 kms at the start of the hour and a half i would of told bumble bee to get stuffed but offside FOOTY!!!!!1!1! was energetic and a good way to get us running.
