This transition pack will provide a summary of the course as well as reading, tasks and questions you will need to complete on your return to Sixth Form in September. The new content you will have to learn will be split into three sections; 1. Exercise Physiology 2. Skill Acquisition 3. Sport and society and the role of technology If you are unable to print this booklet, then please answer all tasks and questions on a word document and email/ save to a pen drive so it can be accessed at school. You can also print and write on the booklet and bring the hard copy into school. There will be an assessment based upon the content covered in this booklet in September.

SECTION 1 – Exercise Physiology In your first year of A Level P.E study you will be focusing on Exercise Physiology with Mr Harrison. This topic area covers Diet and Nutrition, Preparation of Training Methods and Injury Prevention and Rehabilitation. The content you will cover in this transition pack will be Periodisation. This topic area is an expansion on training seasons at GCSE level and goes into greater detail about how a performer can manipulate their training into blocks to allow for peak performance. Please read the following content;
TASK 1 Using your knowledge of periodization can you apply the key features to the relevant athletes. What competitions would this athlete be training for? In terms of Macrocycle, what specific activities would the athlete be completing in the Preparation Phase?
In terms of Macrocycle, what specific activities would the athlete be completing in the Competition Phase? In terms of Macrocycle, what specific activities would the athlete be completing in the Transition Phase? How would the athlete incorporate tapering into their training cycle?
What competitions would this athlete be training for? How would Usain Bolt’s training programme differ to a games based players (football, netball, rugby etc…)?
What factors would need to be considered in Bolt’s Mesocycle phase of training? Provide one example of a Microcycle training session that Usain Bolt may use.
QUESTION Elite swimmers follow structured training programmes to develop exceptional levels of fitness. Explain how a swimmer would use ‘periodisation’ to prepare for competitions. (8 MARKS) Top Tip for Answering; Remember AO1 (point), AO2 (example) and AO3 (evaluate) can you apply/ structure your answer using these assessment objectives. Include all the key words for periodisation including tapering, peaking, double periodisation. SPACE TO PLAN

This topic area covers Skill continuum and classification, practice for learning, theories of learning, guidance and feedback, memory and information processing. The content you will cover in this transition pack will be skill continuum and classification. This topic area is an expansion of Skill classification at GCSE level.
