UNIT 1: WARM-UP- CONCEPT AND AIMS (OBJECTIVES)
The warm-up is the process to get the body ready for the following activities and exercises. It
involves games, activities and exercises. It is done just before the main physical activity. For
example, before playing an intense sport you can run slowly to warm your muscles and your heart.
There are very different warm ups, (high intensity, low intensity, for basketball, tennis...)
Warm ups are specific to the sport or activity you practice.
The warm-up has two main aims:
- get your body ready for the next activity
- prevent you from injuries (because your body temperature is higher).
Length- 8-10 minutes.
Stage 1: . There are different ways to develop this stage: aerobic activity,
running, games, jumping with ropes or doing different exercises while running (heels to the bottom,
knees up, running sideways, crossing legs, moving arms, three jumps-run-stop, pinch your partners,
the last one repeat...).
Stage 2:
a) . Moving the main joints: ankles,
knees, hips, shoulders, elbows, and wrists. It is a
good idea to start with the ankles and continue all
the way up.
b) . The main muscles to stretch are:
calves, quads, hamstrings, gluteus, biceps, triceps,
pectoralis… We follow the same order: going from
the feet to the head while stretching every muscle
for 10-15 seconds
Stage 3: . Practice actions from the activity. Warms up specific parts of the
body that will be used in the activity. Visualise a successful performance to complete the mental
preparation.
3ºESO 6
UNIT 2: HEALTH AND PHYSICAL FITNESS
Do you know how difficult it is to hunt? What kind of capacities or skills do we need? ...
Have you ever been ill in bed for a long time? How did you feel after that? Think.....
We can define Physical fitness as "The ability to do a daily physical workout without feeling too
tired". But a more accurate definition would be ”The ability to perform daily physical activity efficiently, without demanding a strenuous effort from the body”.
For this, you need the four “S´s”
Strength Stamina Speed Suppleness
These are the components of physical fitness. In Spanish, we call them “Capacidades Físicas
Básicas”.
1. Stamina:
Stamina helps your muscles to work for a long period of time.
With it, you can do exercises for a longer period of time, no matter the intensity. For example:
Cycling: In the Tour of France they ride more than 200km over a lot of days, but they also sprint!
Marathon runners run for more than 2 hours at a very fast pace.
Swimmers in the 1500m race
Footballers need to run for 90 minutes without being tired so they can dribble and shoot.
Stamina is also called Endurance. There are two types of Stamina or Endurance: Aerobic and Anaerobic.
During Aerobic activity, your heart and lungs give your
muscles plenty of oxygen so that you can exercise for long
periods of time at a medium intensity. (Marathon, cycling...)
During Anaerobic activity, your muscles don´t have enough
oxygen. These exercises are short but have a very high
intensity (100m sprint, a basketball attack). With anaerobic
stamina, you can do these exercises faster without getting
too tired.
Benefits of regular stamina training:
-Your heart grows larger and thicker
-You have more capillaries.
-Your breathing capacity increases.
-It´s easier to maintain your ideal weight
Aerobic Exercise is very good for your health. It develops your heart, your lungs and your circulatory system.
2. Strength:
Strength is the ability to use muscles against a resistance (a force or a weight).
3ºESO 7
With it, you can move or lift weights, and you can move your body weight more easily.
Some sports in which strength is important:
Weightlifting: to lift as much weight as you can.
Judo: to throw your opponent.
Climbing: to move your body weight up the mountain.
Athletics: to jump high or long and to throw a javelin or a
hammer.
There are three types of strength:
Maximum strength: to lift heavy weights (aizkolaris lift very
heavy stones)
Explosive strength: to perform a movement as fast as we
can, moving a small weight (javelin throwers, for example)
Resistance-Strength: to exercises with medium weights for a
long time (in judo, combats last 4 minutes; rowers must move
the boat for a long time also)
Benefits of developing your strength:
-You have more muscular power because your muscles and tendons grow in size.
-You can move weights easier (including your own body).
-It helps you to maintain a good posture in daily life and sports
3. Speed:
Speed is the ability to do one or more movements in a short period of time.
Some examples of sports where speed is important:
Fifty meters swimmers react quickly to the horn and swim
very fast. Handball goalkeepers react very fast to stop
balls. Fencers move fast to touch the opponent with their
sword.
When we talk about the speed to move from one place to
another (running, biking or swimming), we call it a sprint.
Speed means reacting quickly and moving fast. So you can find three types of speed:
Reaction speed: moving as fast as you can after the
referee blows the whistle in a 100m sprint. In team sports there is also reaction speed: chasing your
opponent when he runs away from you, or reacting to a volleyball spike quickly.
Speed of an isolated movement: e.g. a karate kick or a tennis service must be very quick.
Speed of combined movements: any sprint in running or swimming, a dribbling in football...
Benefits of speed training:
-Speed is basic in all sports. Even in a marathon, the winner is the fastest!
-It is related to coordination and agility. If you react and move fast, you have an advantage in all
sports.
-Speed training improves your speed and makes your muscles grow.
3ºESO 8
4. Suppleness:
Suppleness is the ability to have a wide range of movement with any part of your body. It is also
called Flexibility.
Flexibility is very important in all sports, because with it, you
can perform better and it also reduces the risk of injuries.
It is important for gymnasts, hurdle runners and taekwondo
fighters to do kicks.
Flexibility depends on the joints range of movement and the
stretching ability of the muscles around it.
There are two types of flexibility:
Dynamic Flexibility: this is when you do wide, ample and
relaxed movements.
Static Flexibility: this is when you hold one position for a few
seconds. There is no movement.
Flexibility is the only physical ability that decreases as you grow older. You need to spend a little time every day to maintain and enhance it.
Benefits of suppleness training:
-The range of movement in joints is bigger, so you can accelerate your arms and legs for a longer
distance. You can also kick, throw and hit faster and stronger.
-You have fewer injuries.
-Your movements are not limited.
-Your muscles are more elastic and more powerful.
Improving fitness:
For a weightlifter, the concept of fitness is different from the marathon
runner.
The physical fitness of the human body can always be improved. This can
be done by following a training programme. Some programmes are more
effective than others, and a programme can have different effects on
different people.
3ºESO 9
Factors affecting fitness:
a) Psychological and social skills:
-A relaxed attitude and a mind free from stress is basic for a persons well-being.
-A positive attitude is desirable in all people, but essential in a sports person. Attitude includes trust
in your skills, willingness, discipline and respect for one´s opponents and fellow partners.
b) Physical exercise:
-Participation in physical activity develops the components of physical fitness, and it is well known
that a sedentary lifestyle damages your health.
c) Rest:
Sufficient and good quality sleep is an essential part of any sportsman or sportswoman. Also, you
need to rest properly between your daily activities (classes, evening activities and sports)
d) Diet:
A healthy and balanced diet is vital for the body. It must provide you with nutrients to:
-Obtain energy to create movement
-Construct and repair all types of body tissues
-Regulate human body functions (temperature,
metabolism...)
For a correct diet, you must:
- Have a varied diet, eating all kinds of
foods, not only the ones you like most.
- Have a balanced diet, without an excess or
lack of nutrients.
- Eat five times a day: breakfast, mid-morning snack, lunch, tea or afternoon snack, supper.
- Drink regularly: correct hydration is fundamental. Thirst is a symptom of dehydration, so drink
properly before, during and after exercising.
- Eat fruit often
- Avoid factory baked goods and junk food.
e) Age:
Physical fitness develops parallel to your body, and decreases with age. A healthy lifestyle reduces
the deterioration of your body as you age.
f) Genetics:
Some aspects affecting health and physical fitness can be genetically inherited, such as muscular
fibre types, but work and perseverance can also help us to increase our abilities and skills.
g) Drugs:
The use of drugs is acceptable if they are to overcome illness, such as asthma. But here we use the
term “drugs” to refer to tobacco, cannabis, alcohol and other stimulant and sedative drugs. These
always have side effects; despite being more or less accepted socially. Tobacco causes damage to the
respiratory and circulatory systems, and alcohol kills neurons and affects the central nervous
system, blood pressure, liver, stomach and reaction time.
3ºESO 10
TRAINING METHODS There is a wide range of different training methods. All are effective to some extent, and all place emphasis on
one or more of the fitness components that we have studied this course.
1. Continuous training:
It involves working continuously for a prolonged period of time.
At the beginning of the programme, the person may work for 20 minutes,
but after a number of sessions, the time spent would increase, although the
workload would probably remain the same.
-At a steady intensity (you don´t vary the pace). It is good for aerobic
fitness and it is very easy to do.
-At different intensities (you combine different speeds without stopping:
slow-fast-medium...). This is often called “fartlek” or "speed play". The advantages of fartlek are that it can
be easily adapted to the individual and it imitates the pattern of games with a regular change of pace (football,
basketball...)
In this type of training you can increase the stress level if you:
-increase the duration
-increase the distance
-increase the speed
2. Interval training:
This involves alternating periods of high intensity work with rest periods. During the rest periods the person
may be inactive (their body stops moving) or they may work at a low intensity.
Some examples of interval training are:
-Swimming 8 x 25m sprints with a 20 seconds rest between
each
-Running 10 x 100 m sprints with a 300m jog between each.
In this type of training, you can increase the stress level if you:
- increase the speed of the sprint
- increase the number of sprints
- increase the distance
- decrease the rest periods
3. Circuit training:
This type of work includes a number of physical exercises performed one after the other in the form of a
circle or circuit.
Circuits can be designed to build up strength, increase endurance, speed or even suppleness. Circuits can
include all types of exercises: using only load of your body (push-ups), using loads (dumbbells, medicinal balls...),
using benches, ropes, balls and other materials...
You must carefully select the exercises that best suit your
objective.
The advantages of circuit training are that:
-The variety of exercises prevents boredom
-A lot of people can work in a small place at the same time
-Any kind of exercise can be included.
In this type of training, you can increase the stress level if you:
3ºESO 11
-increase the number of exercises
-increase the number of laps to the circuit
-increase the speed
-decrease the rest periods
4. Weight training:
Weight training can be very similar to circuit training, but here the person completes a set of exercises in a
certain order using weights.
Each station concentrates on a different part of the body. As
training progresses, the weights can be made heavier and rest
periods can be reduced.
As a general rule, it is agreed that to increase maximum
strength, a person should lift heavy weights with few
repetitions and a long rest between exercises.
To increase stamina, a light weight should be lifted with a large
number of repetitions and a small rest between exercises.
How do Muscles Contract?
An important point to consider in weight training is
the muscle contraction.
Our skeletal muscles which work voluntarily have a
number of contractile options. There are two main
types of muscle contraction— isometric and isotonic.
In an isometric contraction the length of the muscle
doesn’t change when engaged. In an isotonic
contraction there is a change in the length of a
muscle as it works against an outside force.
There are two types of isotonic contractions—
concentric and eccentric. In a concentric contraction
a muscle shortens as it contracts, for example,
showing off your biceps. In an eccentric contraction
the muscle lengthens as it contracts.
3ºESO 12
Indicadores de esfuerzo One of the aims in P. E. is that you know your own body, its capabilities and limits and use it
properly. Sometimes we think that we are over working more but physiological indicators can show
us that we can do more, other times we get involved in a game, activity or competition, that
although we have worked at 100%, we finished thinking we could do more.
One way of monitoring physical activity intensity is to determine whether a person's pulse or
heart rate is within the target zone during physical activity.
Taking Your Heart Rate
Generally, to determine whether you are exercising within the heart rate target zone, you must
stop exercising briefly to take your pulse. You can take the pulse at the neck, the wrist, or the
chest. We recommend the neck, chest or wrist. You can feel the radial pulse on the artery of the
wrist in line with the thumb. Place the tips of the index and middle fingers over the artery and
press lightly. Do not use the thumb. Take a full 60-second count of the heartbeats, or take for
30 seconds and multiply by 2. Start the count on a beat, which is counted as "zero."
The age-adjusted maximum heart rate formula (220-your age) then set your zones according
percentages.
3ºESO 13
UNIT 3: PHYSICAL CONDITIONING TESTS
In order to assess (evaluate) your physical conditioning, your teacher will
ask you to perform some tests. Fitness testing is a way of gaining
information about the health related and skill related components of an
athlete (or our) fitness. Testing can take place in a number of
environments, with laboratory testing being the most accurate; however
there is still a large range of tests that can be carried out, away from a
lab, which provide a lot of useful information.
The aim of these tests is not to kill you (as you always think). We are trying to measure your
starting and finishing physical conditioning along the year. We can also check if you have any
important problem or surprisingly low level in any capacity.
Reasons for Fitness Testing - To highlight the strengths and weakness of an athlete, enabling a training program to be
devised which addresses the findings
- To evaluate a training program, to see if it is helping the athlete in achieving set goals
- To measure fitness levels following injury, illness or following the off season
- To assist in setting goals
- To determine health status (in the non-sporting population)
- Talent identification
- To aid motivation
TESTS You can use different tests to measure your components of physical fitness. The following are
examples of tests which can easily be reproduced away from a lab.
- Stamina:
o Cooper’s test: Following a 10 minute warm-up, run as far as you can in 12 minutes.
Record the distance travelled to the closest 100m.
o Course-Navette, 1000 metres, 3000 metres, 30 minutes..
- Strength:
o Standing Long Jump: Start behind a starting line, jump from two feet and land on
two feet as far as possible. You may use your arms to aid you.
o Sit-up Test: Perform as many sit-ups as possible without rest. This process of
fatiguing a muscle (or muscle group) to measure its endurance can be repeated with
anybody part.
o Medicinal-ball throwing, push-ups...
- Suppleness:
o Sit and reach: The sit and reach test measures the ability to flex the trunk, which
means stretching the lower back muscles and the muscles in the back of the thigh
(hamstrings).
- Speed- 40-50-60 metres, 50-100 metres launched (you start running 10 metres before)...

FLOORBALL At first glance (sight), you may think Floorball is just another hockey
game. However, Floorball is a unique game that is easy to learn, fast, and
fun. It is played in the form of a match1 between two teams. The aim
2 of the game is
to score3 more goals than the opposing team, according to the rules

BASIC RULES OF FLOORBALL
1 Match: partido 2Aim: objetivo 3 Score: marcar 4 Rules: reglas
3ºESO 17
1. The game is played with 5 field players and a goalie (goalkeeper).
2. Teams consist of a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 10 players.
3. Game is played with 2 halves of 5 min with no break except to switch sides.
4. The goalie must not hold the ball for more than 3 seconds and when throwing the ball, it must hit
the floor before passing the centre line
5. If the ball goes out of the rink (campo) the other team can continue play 1 metre away from the
spot the ball went out. If the ball goes out from the end the other team continues from the corner
spot.
6. When given a free hit the opponent must be at least 3 metres away from the ball including sticks
7. The ball may be kicked, but not more than once and not to
a team mate
8. The ball must not be played with the hands or head
9. The ball may be played from the air if it is below knee
level
10. You are not allowed to:
- hold, check, block or trip an opponent
- hit, block, lift, push down or kick an
opponent´s stick
- hit the ball with the stick or foot when the ball is above knee level
- lift the stick above the height of your knee
- kick the ball twice
- touch ball with hand
- jump up to reach ball
- place your stick between players legs
- play when body parts, other than feet, come in contact with floor
11. Players may not play without a stick
12. You are not allowed to jump and play ball at the same time
13. The ball may not be played if a hand or both knees are on the ground (oneknee is allowed)
14. Free hit or 2 minute penalty is given when:
- high sticking, hitting the opponents stick, playing ball with hand or head, tackling
(placar), pushing, obstructing, throwing the stick, wrong distance in free hit
- a penalty hit is given if the foul is committed when the other player is trying to
score from close to the goal
15. The field is surrounded by a rink and the ball can be bounced off the rink. In schools side walls of a
gym are adequate to be used as a make shift rink.
16. Both sides of the blade (stick) can be used to play the ball.
17. The goals are 1.6m wide and 1.15m high.
18. The goals are placed about 3m inside from the back line and play continues behind the goal.
19. The goalie plays without a stick and can catch the ball within the goalie area.
20. Offences leading to a free-hit: (infracciones que conllevan un saque de falta)
– When a player hits5, blocks, lifts6, kicks or holds7 an opponent or opponent's stick.
–When a field player raises8 the blade9 of his stick above10 waist11 level in the back swing12 before
hitting the ball, or in the forward swing after hitting the ball.
5 Hit: golpear 6 Lift: levantar 7Hold: sostener 8Raise: elevar 9Blade: hoja del stick 10Above: por encima 11 Waist: cintura 12 Swing: balanceo
3ºESO 18
–When a field player uses any part of his stick or his foot, to play or try to play the ball above knee
level.
–When a field player places13 his stick, his foot or his leg between an opponent's legs or feet.
–When a player receives a foot pass from a field player in the same team.
–When a field player is in the goalkeeper area.
–When a goalkeeper has the ball under control for more than 3 seconds.
SKILLS OF A FLOORBALL PLAYER ARE: Like other team games, Floorball requires the use of various skills and abilities. Important abilities are all
the physical ones, motor skills, mental capacity, game understanding and social skills.
The main physical ability is speed with different forms of motor skills combining to produce stick
handling (manejo) skills.
1. motor skill 2. ball control 3. speed 4. passing skills 5. agility
6. mental capacity 7. endurance 8. different roles in game play 9. strength
CONCEPTS Sticks Down- Raising the stick over the waist level (knee level for younger players) is forbidden in the
game of Floorball.
Face Off- Floorball play begins with a face off at the center of the court. An interesting point about the
face off is that the ball will be hit backward to a teammate, not forward.
Goal Crease- There is a zone in which players may not enter to shoot a goal.
This area is utilized to prevent bunching up (amontonarse) around the goal.
SKILLS Passing- Children should look for an open teammate (one not surrounded by
opposing team members). Face the direction he/she is passing and strike the ball
through it’s center.
Receiving- Children should move to an open space (away from opposing team members) and call to the
passer. Receiver should then get in line with the ball and absorb the force of the ball as it makes contact
with the blade.
Dribbling- Children need to learn how to dribble using both sides of the stick blade in order to keep the
ball in close proximity.
Attacking the Goal- Children should learn to shoot on sight and keep the shot low. Create a combination
skill by having the children receive a pass and turn to attack the goal in one move.
OTHER RULES & PLAY The play of floorball is not that much different from hockey. The major difference is that the rules of
floorball do not allow for any high sticking, stick contact, or body contact, so the game tends to be less
physical in that sense. From a point of view, it is no less physical than hockey, but perhaps even more so!
It is a safer game. Floorball is played using a stick with a curved and concave plastic blade. The shaft
(mango) is shorter than a traditional hockey stick and round, which makes it very maneuverable.
There is no puck (disco/pastilla) or heavy ball, instead, a lightweight plastic ball is used. It is the
combination of these that makes the game so much fun. The ball is extremely fast and can be easily lifted,
bounced, and deflected.
In the official game, you can kick the ball to your own stick but you may not kick it two times in a row. In
class it’s forbidden to kick the ball intencionally.
You may stop the ball with your body, but not with your head, arms or hands.
