1.3 Tournaments:
It is a series of contests with several rounds in which many contestants compete, individually or as a
team to decide the winner.
Importance of tournament
The sportsman learns the discipline by playing tournaments.
The sportsman meets other sportsman at a single platform.
He learns ethical values such as honesty, fair play, and respect for others.
Tournament provides recreation to all, i.e. organizers, spectators, students.
Type of tournament:
1. Knock out: In this type of tournament, the team once defeated gets eliminated from the
tournament. Only the winning teams contest in the next rounds. Opportunities are given to the
winning players/teams.
2. League: In single league tournament all participating teams compete once, with each other,
where as in double league, each team play with every other team twice, without any
consideration of victory or defeat.
3. Combination Tournaments: Combination tournaments are organized in group or zonal
matches.
There are mainly four types of combination tournaments:
I. Knock out cum Knock out.
II. League cum league.
III. Knock out cum league.
IV. League cum Knock out.
4. Challenge Tournament: This type of tournament comes when there are one to one contests
or there are two players on each side. One player challenges the other and the other player
accepts the challenge. Games in which such tournaments are held include – Boxing, Tennis,
Table Tennis, Badminton etc.
Fixtures in such tournaments are decided according to:
I. Ladder Method
II. Physical Method
III. Cobweb Method
Knock out tournaments:
In knock out tournaments the teams which defeat once gets automatically eliminated from the
tournament.
14
Seeding a Team: - The sorting of the teams and fitting them in the fixtures so that the stronger teams
do not meet each other in earlier rounds is known as Seeding. This method is good if we know the
real strong teams. The organizers should find out the real strong teams from the previous tournaments
or old records figure starting a new tournament.
Bye: - The advantage given to a team usually by drawing a lot and exempting it from playing a match
in the first round is known as Bye. These are given to a specific number of teams in the first round.
The number of byes is decided by subtracting the number of teams from the next higher number
which is in power of two’s.
Bye Next Higher No - No of Team [ - No of teams]
The procedure of giving byes is as follows:
The first bye is given to last team of lower half.
The second bye is given to first team of upper half.
The third bye is given to first team of lower half
The fourth bye if given to last team of upper half.
The next bye or byes will be given in the same order as described above.
Advantages of knock out tournament:
I. These are less expensive.
II. Helpful in enhancing standard of sports.
III. It requires less time to complete the tournament.
IV. Minimum no. of officials is required.
Disadvantages of knock out tournament:
I. There are many chances of elimination of good teams in preliminary rounds.
II. There are many chances of weak teams to enter in the final round.
III. Spectators may not have enough interest in the final round.
1.4 Methods of Preparing Fixtures for Knock-out Tournaments:-
1. Total number of teams participating in the tournament.
2. Total number of matches to be played in the tournament.
Formula for calculating total number of matches is n-1, where n is the total number of teams
participating in the tournament.
3. Total number of rounds played in the tournament depends upon two things:-
I. The number of teams playing in the tournament.
II. The higher nearest number from the total number of teams of power of two’s =
15
4. Method of determining the number of teams in upper half and lower half:-
I. If the number of teams is even, then equal number of teams will be divided in both halves i.e.
n/2, where n is the total number of teams.\
II. If the number of teams is odd, the following method is applied:
Number of teams in upper half = (n+1)/2, where n = number of teams.
Number of teams in lower half = (n-1)/2, where n = number of teams
5. The number of byes in knock-out tournament are decided by subtracting total number of teams
from the next higher nearest number in power of two’s ( ).
Example: -Knock out fixture of 19 teams
No. of teams = 19,
Total No. of matches = n-1 = 19-1 = 18
No. of teams in upper half =n+12
= 19+12 =
202 =10
No. of teams in lower half n−12 =
19−12 = 182 =9
Total no. of byes = 32- 17 =15 byes,
No. of byes in upper half = nb−12 =
15−12 =142 =7
No. of byes in lower half = nb−12 =
15+12 =162 =8
Total number of rounds = 5

League Tournament:- In this type of tournament each team plays with every other team once if it is a single league
tournament and each team plays with every other team twice if it is a double league tournament.
Method to draw the fixture in league tournament:-
(a) Cyclic method
In cyclic method, if the number of teams is in even number, the team number 1 is fixed on the top of
right hand side and then other team numbers in ascending order consecutively downward and then
upward on the left hand side and then from the next round teams will rotate in clockwise direction. If
the number of teams is odd then the bye is fixed on the top of right hand side and rest of the
procedure will remain same. If the number of team is even number than number of rounds will be (N-
1). If the number of teams is odd number then number of rounds will be equal to number of teams.
Fixture according to cyclic method
Example: Draw a fixture of 6 teams on league basis according to cyclic method.
Answer: Total number of teams = 6
Total number of matches
=n(n−1)2
=6(6−1)2 =
6×52
=302 =15
Number of rounds = n-1 = 6-1 = 5 rounds. Fixtures

(b) Stair-case Method: In stair-case method, the fixtures are made just like a ladder or a stair- case.
In this method, no bye is given to any team and there is no problem of even or odd number of teams.
Example: Draw a fixture of 9 teams on league basis according to stair-case method.

2.1 Balanced Diet and Nutrition
A diet which contains the proper amount of each nutrient such as Carbohydrates, Fats,
Proteins, Vitamins, and Minerals etc. is called Balanced Diet.
Balanced Diet: - A complete food, a diet contains adequate amounts of all the necessary nutrients
required for proper growth & maintenance of body.
Nutrition: - It is the process of obtaining & consuming food or breaking down food &substances
taken in by the mouth to use for energy in the body.
Nutrients: - The food in our diet consists of various types of essential chemicals
for our body termed as nutrients: - e.g. Protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins & minerals.
Goals of nutrition:
I. Stay hydrated
II. Provide immediate fuel
III. Boost performance
IV. Preserve muscles
V. Improve recovery
Macro nutrients
Macronutrients mainly include carbohydrates, proteins and fats and also water which are
required in large quantities and their main function being the release of energy in body.
Macronutrients include Carbon, Oxygen, Hydrogen, and Nitrogen.
Micro nutrients
Micronutrients mainly comprise vitamins and minerals which are required in very less
26
quantities. Micro nutrients are chlorine, iron, manganese, zinc, boron, sodium, copper, molybdenum
and nickel etc.
However, both macro nutrients as well as micro nutrients are essential for formation of many
compounds which are required by the body for growth and development.
2.2 Non-Nutritive and Nutritive Components of Diet
Nutritive components of diet
Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are needed to provide energy during exercise. It provides quick or instant
energy to our body. Carbohydrates are stored mostly in the muscles and liver. Complex
carbohydrates are found in foods such as pasta, bagels, whole grain breads, and rice.
Protein Protein is important for muscle growth and to repair body tissues. Protein can also
be used by the body for energy, but only after carbohydrate stores have been used up. Only
strength training and exercise will change muscles.
Fat It provides the highest concentration of energy of all the nutrients. One gram of fat
equals nine calories. Saturated fats are found primarily in animal sources like meat, egg yolks, yogurt,
cheese, butter, milk.
Vitamin A well-planned and nutritionally adequate diet should meet an athlete‘s vitamin
and mineral needs. Supplements will only be of any benefit if your diet is inadequate or you
have a diagnosed deficiency, such as an iron or calcium deficiency.
Minerals Minerals are very essential in our diet. Four percent of our body weight is made up minerals.
These are required for healthy teeth, bones and muscles. It is also used by body for various activities
such as transmission of nerve, impulses formation of hormones and maintenance of heart beat etc.
Macro Minerals a) Calcium: Calcium is among the top macro-minerals in terms of growth
and development of our bones and teeth. It helps in blood clotting. Its deficiency may cause
rickets. The sources are cheese, milk, orange, juice, eggs, green leafy vegetables and cereals.
b) Potassium: Potassium is one of the most required minerals in diet. It is helpful in keeping
the nervous system and muscular system fir and active all the time. It helps in maintaining
the amount of water in blood and tissues. Its main sources are banana, tomatoes, green leafy
vegetables, beans etc.
c) Sodium: It helps in muscular activities. It also helps in transmission of nerve impulses.
The sources are table salts, pickles and butter etc.
d) Magnesium: It repairs and maintains body cells. It is found in meat, brown rice, beans
and whole grains etc.
e) Phosphorus: Phosphorus helps in the formation of bone and teeth. It keeps the muscles and nerve
activities normal. The sources are egg, fish, liver, milk, and unpolished rice etc.
27
Micro Minerals: a) Iodine: It produces the hormones for the thyroid gland. It is also
significant for proper growth and development. Lack of iodine can cause goiter (swollen
thyroid gland) and mental retardation. The sources are iodized salt, fish and sea food.
b) Iron: It is essential in the production of haemoglobin. Its deficiency causes anaemia. The
sources are meat, egg, dry fruits, and spinach banana and green leafy vegetables.
c) Chromium: It is essential in the production of haemoglobin. Its deficiency may cause diabetes.
The sources are soya beans, black gram, carrot, tomato, groundnuts, bajra and barley.
Non-nutritive components of diet a) Water

Fibre or roughage has no nutritive value. It is undigested part of the food or it can be said
that it cannot be digested by human intestinal tract. It consists of water and improves intestinal
function by adding bulk to the food. It helps the individual to satisfy the appetite. It prevents
constipation.
2.3 Eating for weight control
A healthy weight is a weight that lowers your risk for health problems; generally body
mass index (BMI) and waist size are good ways to achieve healthy weight.
Methods to calculate BMI = Weight in Kg/ (Height in m)
Category BMI
Category BMI
Under Weight Below 18
Normal Weight 18.5 to 24.5
Over Weight 24.5 to 30.5
Obese Category I 30.5 to 35
Obese Category II 35.5 to 40
Severe Obesity Above 40
Here are some useful tips for weight control with proper eating:
a. Avoid common pitfalls: Diet, especially fat diets or quick fix pills and plans, often set you up for
failure. Prepare a plan that is more realistic.
b. Put a stop to emotional eating: We don’t always eat simply to satisfy hunger. All too often, we
turn to food for comfort and stress relief. When this happens, we frequently pack on pounds.
c. Tune in what you eat: Do not eat while at your desk or working, and in front of the TV screen.
28
The result is that we consume much more than we need, often without realizing it. Counter this
tendency by practicing “mindful” eating: pay attention to what you eat, savour each bite, and choose
foods that are both nourishing and enjoyable.
d. Fill up with fruit, veggies and fibre: To lose weight, you have to eat fewer calories. But that
doesn’t necessarily mean you have to eat less food. You can fill up while on a diet, as long as you
choose your foods wisely.
e. Indulge without overindulging: Do not avoid some type of food (ice cream or cookies or chips)
completely. Instead of denying yourself the unhealthy foods you love, simply eat them less often.
f. Take charge of your food environment: Set yourself up for success by taking charge of your off
environment: when you eat and what foods are available.
g. Make healthy lifestyle changes: You can support your dieting efforts by making healthy lifestyle
choices.

Food Intolerance
Food intolerance is that when a person has difficulty in digesting a particular food. Intolerance
means the individual elements of certain foods that cannot be properly processed and absorbed by our
digestive system. The main cause of food intolerance is the
complete absence of enzymes responsible for breaking down or absorbing the food elements.
Symptoms
Nausea
Vomiting
Pain in joints
Headache and rashes on skin
Diarrhea
Sweating
Palpitations
Burning sensations on the skin stomach
Food intolerance can cause nausea, stomach pain, diarrhea, vomiting, gas
cramps, heartburn, headaches, irritability, etc.
Causes: Absence of activity of enzymes responsible for breaking down the food elements.
These are usually innate sometimes diet related or due to illness.
Food myths a. Eggs increases cholesterol level so avoid it: There is no doubt that eggs are good source
of health. An egg provides you various nutrients. It is as per daily requirements of
cholesterol by our bodies. So, if you take one egg daily there is no problem of cholesterol
level.
b. Drinking while eating makes you fat: The actual fact behind this misconception is that
enzymes and their digestive juices will be diluted by drinking water while eating which
slows down your digestion which may lead to excess body fat.
(i) Myth: Low fat or No fat diet are good.

term burns off fat whereas crash dieting or fasting not only removes fat but who leans
muscles.

Fact: It doesn’t make much change.
(iv) Myth: Low fat milk has less calcium that full fat milk.
Fact: - Skimmed and semi skimmed actually have more calcium because it is in watery part
and not in creamy part of milk.
30
(v) Myth: Vegetarian cannot build muscles.

responding to the information that comes in through senses. It refers to the way the nervous
system receives messages from the senses and then turns them into proper motor and
behavioral responses. The various causes of SPD are as follows:-
a) Genetic Factor: Studies indicate that children born to adults who have Autism Spectrum
Disorder (ASD) may be at a higher risk to develop SPD.
b) Low birth weight: It is also considered one of the causes of sensory processing disorder.
c) Environmental factors: Usually, children who are adopted often experiences sensory
processing disorder due to some restrictions in their early lives or poor parental care.
III. Autism Spectrum Disorder is a disorder that affects development. Here, the word spectrum
refers to the range of symptoms and their severity. Generally, the young children with ASD
have difficulties with communication, language, social skill and behavior. The various causes
of Autism Spectrum Disorder are as follows:
42
a) Genetic factors: It seems to play a very significant role. The first thing is that something happens
at the time of fetal development that alters genes and secondly child inherits problematic genes from
one or both the parents.
b) Environmental factors: It is not certain that environment causes ASD. But mothers exposed to
high level of pesticides and air pollution may also be at a higher risk of having a child with ASD.
IV. Oppositional Defiant Disorder:- is a set or group of behavioral disorders called disruptive
behavior disorders. It is called by this name because children with such disorders always tend
to disrupt those around them.
The various causes of Oppositional Defiant Disorder are as follows:
a) Biological or Genetic factors: Children are more susceptible of developing ODD if they have a
parent with a history of ADHD or ODD.
b) Physical factors: the presence of ODD traits has been linked to the existence of abnormal
amounts of some brain chemicals. These brain chemicals, known as neurotransmitters, keep the brain
chemicals themselves balance properly.
c) Psychological factors: Children may develop ODD if they don’t have good relation with parents
or have neglectful parents or have inability to develop social relationship.
d) Social factors: Oppositional Defiant Disorder may be due to inconsistent discipline, divorce,
poverty, chaotic environment I the family and exposure to violence.
V. Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: - Is a mental health disorder that affects people of all ages
and walks of life. It occurs when an individual gets caught in a cycle of obsessions and
compulsions. It can be said that persons with OCD are plagued to constant thoughts of fears
that cause them to perform rituals or routines.
Causes of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder: The exact cause of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder is
still unknown. Research studies suggest that there may be a problem with the way one part of the
brain sends information to another part. Serotonin is the chemical in the brain that sends messages
from one part to another. Insufficiency of serotonin may help in causing Obsessive Compulsive
Disorder.
4.4 DISABILITY ETIQUETTES-: Disability etiquette is a set of guidelines dealing specifically
with low approach persons with disability. Disability etiquette refers to respectful communication and
interaction with people who have disabilities. The principles of disability etiquette are fairly simple.
First and foremost, rely on common sense to guide your interactions with people with disabilities and
behave in the same courteous and respectful way with individuals with disabilities that you would
with anyone.
General Disability etiquette-
The General Disability etiquette stated below-
Use “people first” language which recognizes that individuals are more than their disabilities.
Don’t ask questions about a person’s disability unless it is brought up by the individual.
If you offer assistance, wait until the offer is accepted. Then listen to or ask for instructions.
Speak directly to the person.
Don’t be afraid to ask questions when you are unsure of what to do.
43
When introduced to a person with a disability, it is appropriate to offer to shake hands. People
with limited hand use or who have artificial limbs can usually shake hands. (Shaking hands with
the left hand is also an acceptable greeting.)
Treat adults as adults. Address people who have disabilities by their first names only when
extending the same familiarity to all others
The Basics
Ask before you help
Be sensitive about physical contact
Think before you speak
Don’t make assumptions
Respond graciously to requests
4.5 Advantages of physical activities for children with Special needs:-
I. Reduced level of anxiety, stress and depression: physical activities may help in reducing
the level of anxiety, stress and depression of children with disabilities.
II. Improved social interaction: physical activities provide ample opportunities for improving
the social interaction among children with special needs. Social relations are developed during
involvement in physical activities.
III. Better emotional and psychological health: physical activities are beneficial for children
with special needs because such activities improve psychological and emotional health.
IV. Cognitive benefits: physical activities lead to cognitive skill improvement in children with
disabilities. These activities allow them to discover and access strengths that cannot be
challenged in the classroom setting.
4.6 Strategies to make physical activities accessible for children with special needs:-
I. Medical check-up: if we want to make physical activities accessible for the children with
special needs, we need to understand the type of disabilities of children and for this purpose
complete medical check-up of the children is required.
II. Activities based on interests: Physical activities must be based on interest, aptitudes,
abilities, previous experience and limitations of children with special needs.
III. Different instructional strategies: A variety of different instructional strategies such as
verbal, visual and peer teaching should be used for performing various types of physical
activities.
IV. Modification of rules: Rules can be modified according to the needs of the children. They
can be provided extra time or attempt to perform a physical activity.
V. Specific environment: For special needs children the area should be limited

5.1 Motor development: - refers to the development of general body control, fine motor skills
and large muscle movements. There are three stages of motor development in children as given
below infancy or infancy hood, early childhood & later childhood
It is of two types: 1. Gross motor development involves the development of large muscles in the child‘s body such as
sitting, walking, running etc.
2. Fine motor development involves development of small muscles of the body, especially during
the small movements of the fingers and hands e.g. holding of Javelin, Discus and Pole, catching a
cricket ball etc.
Motor Development- Motor Development refers to the development of a child’s Bone, muscles and
ability to move around and manipulate his/her environment.

childhood.
1. Early childhood ( 3 to 6 year)
2. Middle childhood (7 to 10 year)
3. Late childhood (11 to 12 year)
Factors affecting motor development I. Nutrition: – Nutritious food promotes good motor development. Sensory motor development
is dependent upon nutrition that the child gets to a great extent. Children get stronger and
development is good if they get nutritious food.
II. Immunization: – If mother and child both are immunized at a proper time it leads to good
sensory motor development.
III. Environment: – Encouragement, love and security help the child to take risk to explore
fearlessly and to know more about environment which leads to a better sensory development.

5.4 Sports participation of women in India
For women’s participation in sports we have a look at ancient period. Regarding participation in the
first modern Olympic (1896 Athens), there was no participation of women.
Women participated first time in 1900 Olympics. (22 women participated in) and after 100 years in
2000 Sydney Olympics 4069 women had participated.

whereas Deepa Karmakar opened new dimensions in Gymnastics.
Many people comment for women “Why don’t they stay in the kitchen where they belong”?
But now time has changed. Women are capable of changing society. Now the ideology suggests that
women is participating in every sphere of life and proving themselves globally.
Sports Participation of Women in India

5.5-Special consideration
Menarche is the first menstrual bleeding of the young girl (9-16 yrs.)
Menstrual dysfunction
Menstrual dysfunction is a disorder or irregular menstrual cycle in women. It can also be defined as
“An abnormal bleeding during the menstrual cycle”.
Factors/related problems:
1. Absence of menstrual periods: - This problem may be due to eating disorder, excessive exercise
schedule, extreme level of stress and medications etc.
2. Premenstrual syndrome: - Many girls may have symptoms such as acne, backaches, Sore breasts,
headaches, constipation, depression, irritability and feeling anxious etc.
These symptoms may be faced by female before their menstruation.
3. Abnormal Cramps:- These cramps are caused by a chemical in the body that makes the muscles
in the uterus contract.
4. Heavy or prolonged period: - It is common for a girl’s menstrual period to be heavier on some
days than others.
5. Irregular menstrual period: - The regular menstrual cycle for a female is 28 days. However, it
may vary from 21 to 35 days.
6. Delay in the first menstrual period.
5.5- Special consideration (Menarche, Menstrual Dysfunction, Pregnancy, Menopause)
I. Menarche: - “It is the first natural cycle and is a central event of female puberty”.
II. Menstrual dys-function:- Painful and irregular menstrual cycle of women to be on the rise
with the decreasing involvement of the women in the physical fitness and endurance sports.
5.6 Female athlete triad is a syndrome in which eating disorders, osteoporosis and amenorrhea,
eating disorders effect adversely on the body.
a) Osteoporosis is a skeletal disorder in which reduction in bone mass may cause fracture.
Causes
i. Insufficient calcium in diet.
ii. Amenorrhoea
iii. Eating disorder
iv. Bad eating habits
53
b) Amenorrhea refers to the absence of menstrual periods. It may be either primary meaning
woman has never developed menstrual periods) or secondary (absence of menstrual periods in
a woman who was previously menstruating). There are many reasons responsible for
amenorrhea including extensive exercise and improper diet. Exercising intensively and not
consuming enough calories can lead to decreases in hormones that result in a girl’s periods
becoming irregular or stopping altogether.
Amenorrhoea: - Absence of menstrual period for more than 6 months.
c) Eating disorders- In this eating disorder the female athlete only think about food, dieting,
and body weight all the time. They have distorted body structure. Other individuals usually
feel them that are becoming thin but they do not believe this. In front of the mirror they see
themselves obese.

UNIT-6
Test and Measurement in Sports
Key Points:
Motor Fitness Test-AAPHER
General motor fitness-Barrow motor test
Measurement of Cardio-Vascular Fitness- Harward Step Test/Rock Port Test
Rikli & Jones Senior Citizen Fitness Test
6.1 Motor Fitness Test (AAHPER Test)
The AAHPER (American Alliance for Health, Physical Education and Recreation) youth
fitness test was formed in 1965 in United States, but was revised in 1976. This test was administered
on school students of 17 years of age. This test consists of the following six items:
(a) Pull ups: In case of girls, the pull-ups are to be started from a flexed arm hang. This test item
judges the arm and shoulder girdle strength.
(b) Flexed Leg sit ups: This test is meant to judge the efficiency of abdominal and hip flexor
muscles.
(c) Shuttle Run: This test item is meant for judging the speed and change of direction.
(d) Standing Broad Jump: For judging the explosive power of leg muscles.
(e) 50 yard Dash or Sprint: For judging speed.
(f) 600 yard Run: For judging endurance.
Administration of Tests: these tests can be conducted in a gymnasium or out-doors. The only
apparatus required in these tests is a horizontal bar having a diameter of approximately 1½ inches for
pull-ups and flexed arm hang for girls. However, arrangement has to be made for the timing and
recording of all scorers with the help of timers and recorders.
Item No.1 (Boys)—Pull ups: This item has to be done from a hanging position on the bar by using
the overhead grasp (with palms facing outwards). The arms and legs of a subject should be fully
extended. Form hanging position, the subject should raise his body with his arms until his chin is
placed over the bar. Then, he should lower his body to a full hanging position. In doing so, the knees
should not be bent and the pull should not be jerky or snap pull. (The number of completed pull-ups
is the score of the subject.)
Item No. 1 (Girls): Flexed-arms hung: In this test item for girls, the subject is required to hang
from the bar with flexed arms and overhead grasp. She should raise her body to a position where the
chin is above the bar, the elbows are flexed and the chest is close to the bar. The stopwatch is started
as soon as a subject assumes such a hanging position and is stopped when the subject‘s chin falls
below the level of the bar. (The time recorded in seconds for whom a subject holds the hang position
is her score)
Item No. 2-Sit-ups: For this test meant for boys and girls, the subject should lie on his or her back
with knees flexed and kept not more than 12 inches from the buttocks. The hands of the subject
should be placed at the back of the neck, fingers clasped and elbows touching the mat. From this
position, the subject should raise his or her head and elbows forward upwards till the elbows touch
57
the knees. This constitutes one sit-up. (The number of correctly performed sit ups in 60 seconds from
the start of the first sit-up is the score of a subject).
Item No. 3-Shuttle Run: For this test item, two parallel lines are drawn at a distance of 30 feet from
each other and two blocks of wood are placed behind one of the lines. The subject has to stand behind
the other line and on the signal ―Ready‖, ―Go‖ should run to pick up one block, run back to the starting line and place the block behind the line. He should again turn back to pick up the second
block and bring it also behind the starting line. Two such trials are given. (The better time of the two
trials to the nearest 10th of a second is the score of the subject).
Item No. 4-Standing Broad Jump: In this test, a subject is required to stand behind a take-off line,
with feet apart. He takes a jump forward by extending his bent knees and swinging the arms forward.
The best jump recorded, out of the three trials given, is the score of the subject. (The jump should be
recorded in feet and inches).
Item No. 5-50 Yard Dash: Two lines are drawn at a distance of 50 yards from each other. The
subject is made to run from the start line to the finish line and his time taken is recorded in seconds
(nearest to the tenth of a second.) This indicates his score.
Item No. 6-600 Yard Run: This run can be organized on a track, on a football field or an open area
marked for this purpose. In this test item, a subject runs a distance of 600 yards. The subject takes a
standing start from the start line. The subject may walk in between. However, the objective is to
cover the distance in the shortest time. When he crosses the finish line, he is informed of his time.
(The time taken to run the distance is recorded in minutes and seconds).

The student stands at a ready position at the starting point. When the signal Ready, Go! Is given he
has to run the course in a designated manner as fast as possible. He should not touch the cones
throughout the run. He has to continue running through the course three times.
The timer stops the stop watch when he crosses the finish line at the end of the first circuit. The time
recorded to the nearest tenth of a second is the score. In case the cones are moved during the run the
trial has to be re-taken.
The procedure is demonstrated and the student is allowed to jog through the course before the test.
3. Medicine Ball Put
The objective of this test is to measure the arm and shoulder girdle strength. The student has to put a
6-pound medicine ball as far as possible.
Equipment required-: Medicine ball for boys 03 kg for girls 01 kg, measuring tape
The student is between two restraining lines 16 feet apart. He has to hold the medicine ball in one
hand close to the point where the shoulder joins the neck. He has to thrust the ball outward as far as
possible.
During or after the put if the student steps on or over the restraining line the trial is no scores. There
are three trials. The best of the three throws recorded to the nearest foot is the score.
6.3-Measurement of Cardio-Vascular Fitness- Harward Step Test/Rock Port Test
Cardiovascular fitness is the ability of an individual to strengthen the heart muscles during
continuous muscular activities in which numbers of muscles groups are used.
1. Harward Step Test-Aerobic Fitness (Recovery time)
100*(Total test time in seconds (the time for which the athlete was able to do the stepping up and
down)/2*(the total number of heartbeats for all the three time intervals)
Short formula-:
Duration of the exercise in second x100
5.5 x pulse count of 1-1.5min after exercise
Harvard step test-This test requires the athlete to step up and down off a gym bench for 5 minutes at
a rate 30 steps/minute which measures the Aerobic fitness test. The distance to be covered is 1 mile
on normal track. After the workout, timing, heart rate, has to be measured. The athlete steps up and
down onto a standard gym bench once every two seconds for five minutes (150 steps), the assistant
stops the test after 5 minutes the assistant measures the athlete’s heart rate (bpm) one minute after
finishing the test – Pulse 1 The assistant measures the athlete’s heart rate (bpm) two minutes after
finishing the test – Pulse 2 The assistant measures the athlete’s heart rate (bpm) three minutes after
finishing the test – Pulse 3 b. Rock fort one mile test- Main objective to check the development of
vo2 max.

(1) Chair Stand test for lower body strength
Purpose and Daily Benefit: The purpose of the Chair-Stand is to measure the strength of lower body
of adults over 60 years of age. Lower body strength is important for activities such as getting out of a
chair, on the bus, out of the car, and rising up from a kneeling position in the house or garden. The,
strength of your lower body can directly affect the ease with which you perform the activities you do
every day.
Equipment: Chair without arms, Stopwatch.
Procedure: Place the chair against a wall where it will be stable. Sit in the middle of the chair with
your feet flat on the floor, shoulder width apart, back straight. Cross your arms at the wrist and place
them against your chest. The test partner will tell you when to begin and will time you for 30
seconds, using the stopwatch. You will rise up to a full stand and sit again as many times as you can
during the 30 second interval.
(a) Each time you stand during the test be sure you come to a full stand.
(b) When you sit, make sure you sit all the way down. Do not just touch your backside to the chair.
You must fully sit between each stand.
61
(c) Do not push off your thighs or off the seat of the chair with your hands to help you stand unless
you have to.
(d) Keep your arms against your chest crossed and do not allow the arms to swing up as you rise.
(e) If you are on your way up to stand when time is called you will be given credit for that stand.
Scoring: The score is the number of completing correct chair stands in 30 minutes.
(2) Arm Curl test for upper body strength
Purpose: This test measures upper body strength and endurance.
Equipments Required: 4 pound weight (women, AAHPERD), 5 pound weight (women, SFT), 8
pound weight (for men), a chair without armrests, stopwatch.
Procedure: The aim of this test is to do as many arm curls as possible in 30 seconds. This test is
conducted on the dominant arm side (or strongest side). The subject sits on the chair, holding the
weight in the hand using a suitcase grip (palm facing towards the body) with the arm in a vertically
down position beside the chair. Brace the upper arm against the body so that only the lower arm is
moving (tester may assist to hold the upper arm steady). Curl the arm up through a full range of
motion, gradually turning the palm up (flexion with supination). As the arm is lowered through the
full range of motion, gradually return to the starting position. The arm must be fully bent and then
fully straightened at the elbow. The protocol for the AAHPERD test describes the administrator’s
hand being placed on the biceps, and the lower arm must touch the tester’s hand for a full bicep curl
to be counted. Repeat this action as many times as possible within 30 seconds.
Scoring: The score is given for the total number of controlled arm curls performed in 30 seconds.
(3) Chair Sit and Reach test for Lower Body Flexibility
The Chair Sit and Reach test is a part of the Senior Fitness Test Protocol, and is designed to test the
functional fitness of seniors. It is a variation of the traditional sit and reach flexibility test.
Purpose: This test measures flexibility of lower body.
Equipment Required: Ruler, straight back or folding chair, (about 17 inches/44 cm high)
Procedure: The subject sits on the edge of a chair (placed against a wall for safety). One foot must
remain flat on the floor. The other leg is extended forward with the knee straight, heel on the floor,
the ankle bent at 90°. Place one hand on top of the other with tips of the middle fingers even. Instruct
the subject to inhale, and then as they exhale, reach forward towards the toes by bending at the hip.
Keep the back straight and head up. Avoid bouncing or quick movements, and never stretch to the
point of pain. Keep the knee straight, and hold the reach for seconds. The distance is measured
between the tip of the Chair sit & reach test for lower body flexibility fingertips and the toes.
If the finger tips touch the toes then the score is zero.
If they do not touch measure the distance between the fingers and the toes (a negative score).
If they overlap measure by how much (a positive score).
Scoring: Perform two trials. A score is recorded to the nearest inch or 1 cm as the distance reached,
either a negative or positive score. Record with leg was used for measurement.
62
(4) Back Stretch for Upper Body Flexibility
Aim: The Back Scratch Test measure flexibility of your upper body. Upper body’s flexibility affects
your ability to reach for items that may be high on a shelf, change a light bulb, or do any activity that
requires arm and/or shoulder movement. Maintaining flexibility in your upper body will assist you in
continuing to live independently.
Equipment: Ruler
Procedure: Place your left arm straight up in the air above your left shoulder. Bend your left arm at
the elbow to reach toward your back, with your fingers extended. Your elbow pointed toward the
ceiling. Place your right hand behind your back with your palm out and your fingers extended up.
Reach up as far as possible and attempt to touch the fingers of your two hands together. Some people
are not able to touch at all, while other’s fingers may overlap. Take two practice stretches with each
arm, determining which side is more flexible. You will be measuring and recording only your most
flexible side. You are now ready to be measured. Perform the stretch as outlined above. Without
shifting your hands your test partner will position your fingers so that they are pointing toward each
other.
Scoring: The distance between the fingertips of one hand and the other is measured to the nearest
half inch or centimeters. If your fingers overlap, the amount of the overlap will be measured.
Fingertips just touching receive a score of “0”. If your fingers do not touch, you receive a negative
score of the distance between your fingers, measured to the nearest half inch or centimeters.
(5) Eight Foot Up and Go Test for Agility
Aim: The ‘8 Foot Up and Go’ is a coordination and agility test for the elderly, which is a part of the
Senior Fitness Test. This test measures speed, agility and balance while moving.
Equipment required: Stopwatch, straight back or folding chair (about 17 inches/44 cm high), one
marker, measuring tape, area clear of obstacles.
Procedure: Place the chair next to a wall (for safety) and the marker 8 feet of the chair. Clear the
path between the chair and the marker. The subject starts fully seated, hands resting on the knees and
feet flat on the ground. On the command, “Go,” timing is started and the subject stands and walks (no
running) as quickly as possible (and safely) to and around the cone, returning to the chair to sit down.
Timing stops as they sit down.
Purpose: To assess aerobic fitness or aerobic endurance which is important for walking distances,
stair climbing, shopping and sightseeing etc.
Equipment: Stop watch. * Rectangular ground measuring 20 x 5 yards.

Unit 7
Physiology and Injuries in Sports
Key Points:
Physiological factors for determine components of Physical Fitness
Effects of exercise on Cardiovascular Respiratory and Muscular system
Physiological changes due to ageing
Sports Injuries:-Classifications, Causes & Preventive Measures
First Aid- Aims & Objectives
7.1- Physiological factors for determine components of Physical Fitness
Physiological factors for determining strength.
The following are the factors for determining strength:
Muscle composition: There are two types of fibres in muscles i.e. fast twitch fibres and slow
twitch fibres. The muscles which consist of more percentage of fast twitch fibres will produce
more strength.
Size of the muscle: The strength of an individual depends on the size of muscle. As larger and
bigger muscle produce more force and with the help of different methods of strength training,
the size of the muscle can be increased.
Body weight: there is a positive relation between body weight and strength. The individuals who
are heavier are stronger than the individuals who are lighter in weight.
Intensity of nerve impulse: A muscle is composed of number of motor units. The total force of
muscle depends upon the number of contracting motor units. Whenever, a stronger nerve
impulse from central nervous system excites more number of motor units, the muscle will
contract more strongly or it can be said that the muscle will produce more force or strength.
Physiological factors for determining speed.
The following are the factors for determining speed:
Muscle composition: The muscles which consist of more percentage of fast twitch fibres
contract with more speed and produce a greater speed. Different muscles of the body have
different percentage of fast twitch fibres.
Explosive strength: it depends on the shape, size and coordination of muscles. For very quick
and explosive movement, explosive strength is required. The related proportion of fast twitch
fibres and slow twitch fibres determines the maximum possible speed with which the muscle can
contract.
Flexibility: It also determines the speed. Good flexibility allows maximum range of movements
and also enables complete utilization of explosive strength.
66
Biochemical reserves and metabolic power: muscles require more amount of energy and high
rate of consumption for maximum speed performance. For this purpose the stores of ATP & CP
in the muscles should be enough. If the store is less, the working process of the muscles slows
down after short time.
Physiological factors for determining flexibility.
The physiological factors for determining flexibility are:
Muscle strength: Flexibility depends on the level of strength. Weak muscles can become a
limiting factor for achieving higher range of movement. Muscle strength is highly trainable
therefore, it can enhance flexibility.
Joint structure: There are several different types of joints in human body. Some of the joints
intrinsically have a greater range of motion.eg. The ball and socket joint of the shoulder has the
greatest range of motion.
Age and gender: flexibility decreases with the advancement of age. It can be enhanced with the
help of training. Gender also determines the flexibility as females tends to be more flexible than
males.
Internal environment: The internal environment of an athlete influences the flexibility. If
internal temperature increases flexibility increases; if decreases flexibility decreases.
Previous injury: Injuries to connective tissues and muscles ultimately lead to reduced flexibility
Physiological factors determining endurance.
Aerobic capacity:-
I. Oxygen intake
II. Oxygen transport
III. Oxygen uptake
a) Energy reserves
b) Lactic acid tolerance
c) Movement economy
d) Muscle composition
Oxygen Uptake: - It is highest rate at which oxygen can be taken up and consumed by the heart per
minute.
Cardiac Output: - The cardiac output is simply the amount of blood pumped by the heart per
minute.
Hydration and Endurance Exercise: – Sweating is normal physiological response to prolonged
exercise, required for the dissipation of hear produced during energy metabolism
7.2 Effect of exercise on the Cardio Respiratory system:-
I. Cardiac output is the amount of blood pumped by the heart in 1 min. This increases directly
with increasing exercise intensity.
67
II. The heart rate increases from a resting rate of 72 beats / min to 150 beats / min or even more.
III. The stroke volume, meaning the amount of blood pumped into the Aorta with every heartbeat
increases from a resting volume of 70-90 ml to 100-120 ml per beat.
IV. Exercise increases the plasma volume of blood by 12 Op: but total blood volume may reduce
slightly.
V. Blood flow is redistributed with more blood going to the muscles, heart and skin, while blood
in the kidneys and abdomen is reduced.
VI. Blood pressure increases due to exercise because there is more blood flowing in the blood
vessels.
Effects of exercise on Cardio Respiratory System.
I. Increase in the Size of Heart: When we perform regular exercise, the muscles
of the heart increase in size and strength. In fact, the left ventricle adapts to the
greatest extent.
II. Decrease in Resting Heart Rate: Regular exercise decreases the resting heart
rate. If a 10-week training programme is given to an individual whose initial
resting heart rate is 72 beats per minute, after this training time, his resting heart
rate may be reduced up to 10 beats per minute. After regular exercise, the heart
finally becomes more efficient. It does not require to beat so quickly to supply
blood to the body at rest.
III. Stroke Volume Increases at Rest: Regular exercise helps in increasing the
stroke volume at rest. The stroke volume at rest remains up to 50–70 ml/beat in
untrained individuals, 70–90 ml/beat in trained individuals and 90–110 ml/beat in
the best endurance athletes.
IV. Increase in Cardiac Output: Regular exercise tends to increase the cardiac
output. The cardiac output in untrained individuals may be 14–20 litre/minute
and 25–35litre/minute in trained individuals and in the best athletes, the
cardiac output can be as high as 40litre/minute at rest.
V. Increased Blood Flow: In response to the need to supply the muscles with more
oxygen during exercise, the body increases its number of capillaries. The existing
capillaries also open wider. The blood redistribution becomes more efficient and
effective. As a result of above-mentioned facts there is an increased blood
circulation in the body.
VI. Decrease in Blood Pressure: Regular exercise decreases the blood pressure
(systolic and diastolic blood pressure) by up to 10 mm Hg at rest.
VII. Increase in Blood Volume: Regular exercises also increase the blood volume. In
fact, there is an increase in plasma volume which in turn enhances the blood
volume. In addition, the body produces a greater number of red blood cells in
order to keep the muscles supplied with oxygen during heavy exercise.
68
VIII. Quicker Recovery Rate: Regular exercise quickens the recovery rate. A trained
athlete’s heart rate becomes normal quickly than in a beginner. Rate of respiration
also becomes normal rapidly. Therefore, the recovery becomes fast.
IX. Increase in Tidal Air Capacity
X. Decrease in Rate of Respiration
XI. Unused Alveoles become Active:
XII. Increase in Endurance
XIII. Increase in Residual Air Volume
XIV. Increase Lung Efficiency to Deliver Oxygen and Remove Waste Products and
Gaseous Exchange
XV. Increase in Vital Air Capacity
XVI. Increase in Maximum Oxygen Uptake (VO2 Max)
7.3 Effects of exercise on muscular system.
I. Size and shape of muscle changes: Regular exercise changes the shape and size of the
muscle. Cells of the muscles are enlarged which change the shape and size of the muscle.
II. Correct body posture: Regular exercise keeps the correct posture of the body by
strengthening the muscles. The postural deformities do not occur. If there is any physical
deformity, then it is removed.
III. Food storage increases: The capacity of food storage in body can be enhanced by doing
regular exercises. This stored food can be utilized immediately when required.
IV. Toned muscles: Regular exercise helps in keeping the muscles in toned position. Muscles
become firm and maintain a slight, a steady pull on the attachments.
V. Efficient movement of muscles: The movement of muscles becomes efficient and smooth.
The movements during different activities become attractive.
VI. Change in connective tissues: The connective tissues become powerful. These tissues can
bear the stress of strenuous activity.
7.4Ageing
Aging is the process of becoming older. It represents the accumulation of changes in a person
over time. Ageing in humans refers to a multidimensional process of physical, psychological, and
social change.
Physiological Changes due to Ageing:-
I. Changes in Muscles Size and Strength.
II. Changes in Metabolism and Body Composition
III. Changes in Bone Density
IV. Changes in Respiratory System
V. Changes in Cardiovascular System
VI. Changes in Nervous Systems
VII. Changes in the Gastrointestinal System

Causes of sports injuries
To effectively diagnose, rehabilitate and ultimately prevent subsequent injuries, a sport therapist
Anatomical Factors: These are related to make up of the body. Leg length differences and cause
injuries to ankle, hip and back.
Age related causes as the body ages, it changes. It is less able to produce force, recovers slower
and soft tissues lose the ability to stretch. Therefore it is more prone to injury.
Training related cause’s excessive repetitive loading of the tissues is needed for successive
adaptation. However without suitable recovery, tissues never have the chance to adapt and can
fail.
Equipment selection factors these are related to the suitability of equipment. An instance is
incorrect footwear, which will not protect the foot and ankle adequately. It also will not
distribute forces effectively. Thus it increases the risk of injury.
Impact and contact causes Impact or contact can be with objects, surfaces or other people. These
injuries are common in contact sports like football, rugby, hockey etc. Also they are common in
more dangerous sports like motor racing, boxing and skiing.
Prevention of Sports Injuries:
I. Pre-participation of medical check up
II. Proper conditioning
III. Avoid dehydration
IV. Protective Sports equipment & Gears
V. Adequate & effectively maintained facilities
VI. Sports person’s psychological conditions & environment
VII. Adequate rehabilitation/Injury management
VIII. Proper use of right techniques
IX. Balanced diet & adequate rest
X. Use of proper skills
XI. Warming up & cooling down
Impact of surface on athletes
There are two types of surfaces used in any indoor or outdoor games. These are natural and
artificial surfaces. Natural surfaces are the surfaces that are prepared through proper combination of
natural elements like soil and grass. On the other hand, artificial surfaces are more like carpets which
71
are made from artificial components like rubber, synthetic fiber etc. These surfaces impact
performance of athletes differently.
Impact of Surfaces and Environment on Athletes
Climatic conditions affect the performance:-
Environmental conditions, such as excessively high or low temperatures, have the potential to have a
negative impact on an athlete‘s well-being. An athlete’s ability to use a number of thermoregulation
techniques helps in regulating body temperature.
First aid is the immediate treatment or care given to someone suffering from an injury or illness until
more advanced care is accessed or they recover.
The aims of first aid are to:
Save life
prevent illness or injury from becoming worse
relieve pain, if possible
promote recovery
Protect the unconscious.
Sports Injuries classification-:
72
Strain
Is also a muscle injury, A strain is caused by twisting or pulling a muscle or tendon. A sudden
strain is caused by a recent injury, lifting heavy objects or rods in wrong way and over stressing the
muscles. Chronic strain is usually caused by moving the muscles and tendons in repetition.
Sprain
Is a ligament injury, It may occur due to overstretching or tearing of ligaments. Many things
can cause sprain. Falling, twisting, or getting hit can force a point out of its normal position. This can
cause ligaments around the joints to tear. Generally, Sprain occurs at wrist and ankle joints.
Prevention of sprain and strain
a) Conditioning should be performed during the preparatory period.
b) Sports equipment’s must be of good quality.
c) Play courts should be smooth and clean.
d) The scientific knowledge of games should be must for preventing strain.
e) Player should discontinue during the condition of fatigue.
f) Good officiating is essential for preventing such injury.
g) Players should be careful and alert during practice, training and competition.
Abrasion
Is a key injury generally occurs due to friction with certain equipments or a fall over the area
where bone is very close to skin. It may be caused by a fall on hard surface. As someone falls or
slides on the ground, friction causes layers of the skin to rub off.
Bruises
Bruises are not clearly seen as upper skin remains undamaged and inner blood vessels are
damaged and collect beneath the skin. A fresh bruise may actually be reddish and after a few hours it
turns to blue or dark purple.
Laceration
73
Laceration is a wound that is produced by tearing of soft body tissue.
Contusion
Contusion is a muscle injury, a direct hit with or without any sports equipment can be the main cause
of contusion. Contusion can also be due to minor accidents to the skin such as falling, bumping into
something or being hit or kicked.
Management:
Cold compression should be used immediately. Ice or cold water should not be used for more
than 40 minutes persistently.
The cold compression should be performed 5 to 6 times daily.
If there is more swelling at the sight of contusion, the anti-inflammatory medicine should be
given.
If the swelling persists, consult the Doctor immediately.
For the purpose of rehabilitation, flexibility exercises should be performed.
Joint injuries & its types
A hard blow to a joint, a fall, a forceful throwing, lifting or hitting may cause dislocation.
Infect it is dislocation of surface of bones.
Types of dislocation
a) Dislocation of lower jaw: it occurs when the chin strikes to any other object. It may occur
if mouth is opened excessively.
b) Dislocation of shoulder joint: dislocation of shoulder joint may occur due to a sudden
jerk or a fall over a hard surface. The end of the humerous comes out from the socket. In face when
your shoulder dislocates, a strong force, such as a sudden blow to your shoulder. Pull the bones in
your shoulder out of place.
c) Dislocation of hip joint: By putting maximum strength spontaneously may cause
dislocation of hip joint. The end of the femur is displaced from the socket.
d) Dislocation of wrist: A sports person who participates in a sports or game in which he
may fall, runs the risk of getting a dislocated wrist. A miscalculated landing can also cause a
dislocated wrist. Infect, it generally occurs to the person who uses his hand to break his fall.
Preventions:
a) Adequate warming-up should be performed prior to any activity.
b) Proper conditioning should be performed during preparatory period.
c) Stretching exercises should be include in warm-up
d) Players should be careful during training and competition.
e) Protective equipment’s should be used
f) Players should have good anticipation and concentration power
g) Always obey the rules and regulations.
h) Perform regular exercise around your shoulder, hip, and wrist joints etc.
i) Avoid falls or hits as far as possible.
74
Causes of fracture Fracture usually occurs due to a high impact on the bone. It can be causes by overuse. The
most common causes of fracture are:
a) In such sports event where there is a high impact.
b) Traumatic, forceful and unnatural movements.
c) Prolonged long distance walking or running.
d) Sudden fall on hard surface.
e) Direct strike or hit with any solid sports equipment.
f) Osteoporosis.
Management of Fracture
a) Elevate the extremity and rest while bone heals itself.
b) Apply ice to the affected part for 24 to 48 hrs
c) If pain persists, give painkillers.
d) If there is any need of immobilization to the affected part, use a slint.
e) After removal of swelling begin to put partial weight on the affected area.
f) Crutches or walking stick may be used in the beginning. After two week start putting normal
weight.
g) For 6 to 8 weeks, avoid the activity that caused stress fracture. Then start doing the activity
slowly.
7.6 First Aid- Aims and objective
Definition of first aid: Emergency care or treatment given to an ill or injured person before
regular medical aid can be obtained.
First aid is the first and immediate assistance given to any person suffering from either a minor or
serious illness or injury.
Aim- The main aim of first aid is to try to save the precious life of the wounded person or victim.
Objective It’s all about the 3P's
Preserve life – stop the person from dying
Prevent further injury – stop the person from being injured even more. If possible, an
injured person should not be moved. First aid can include how to safely move injured
people -- or move them anyway with less harm if there is no choice.

BIOMECHANICS AND SPORTS
Key Points:
Meaning & importance of Biomechanics in sports
Types of movements (Flexion, Extension, Abduction, Adduction)
Newton’s laws of motion and their application in sports Friction & Sports
8.1-Meaning &importance of Biomechanics in sports
Biomechanics- The study of the action of external and internal forces on the living body, especially
on the skeletal system
Biomechanics is the science of movement of a living body, including how muscles, bones, tendons,
and ligaments work together to produce movement. Biomechanics is part of the larger field of
kinesiology, specifically focusing on the mechanics of the movement. It is both basic and applied
science, encompassing research and practical use of its findings
Importance of biomechanics- Develops efficient movement patterns whether on the field of play or during resistance
training
Improves sport-specific technique and form to enhance performance and minimize injury
Develops proper habits, ensuring that the athlete is able to develop in the long term
Assist in Improving Technique
Helps in Improving Equipment
Facilitates Performance in Sports
Supports in Preventing Injury
Helps in Promoting Safety
Works in the Improvement of Training
Facilities in Understanding of Human Body
Assists in Improving Teaching and Learning Process
8.2 Types of movements
There are various types of movement in body parts which can be divided in four types i.e.
gliding & angular movements, circumduction & rotation and few other movements.
Gliding movements: Gliding movements is the simplest kind of movement that can take place in a
joint, one surface gliding or moving over another without any angular or rotator movement.
Angular movement: Angular movement occurs between long bones. By angular movement the
angle between the two bones increased or decreased. The various movements which fall under
angular movements are described below:
a) Flexion: Bending parts at a joint so that the angle between them decreases and parts come closer
together (bending the lower limb at the knee).
b) Extensions: Straightening parts so that the angle between them increases and parts moves farther
79
apart (straightening the lower limb at the knee).
c) Abduction: It means moving a part away from the midline (lifting the upper limb horizontally to
form a right angle with the side of the body)
d) Adduction means moving a part towards the midline ( returning the upper limb from the
horizontal position to the side of the body).
e) Circumduction: Circumduction is that movement which takes place between the head of a bone
and its articular cavity. This kind of motion is best seen in the shoulder and hip joints.
f) Rotation: Rotation is a form of movement in which a bone moves around a central axis without
undergoing any displacement from the axis. Moving a part around an axis is called rotation.eg.
Twisting the head from side to side.
8.3Newton’s laws of motion and their application in the field of sports
1. Newton’s 1st Law
A body at rest will remain at rest and a body in motion will remain in motion at the same
speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an external force.
Example: Starting in rowing, starting in sprinting, starting in throwing the hammer.
Newton’s 1st Law is also known as “Law of Inertia”.
2. Newton’s 2nd
Law
A change in motion is directly proportional to the force producing it and inversely
proportional to its mass. If two unequal forces are applied to objects of equal mass, the object that has
greater force applied will move faster.
Example: In hammer throw, a thrower who is stronger will throw the hammer farther than a thrower
who is less strong.
Newton’s 2nd
Law is also known as “Law of acceleration”.
3. Newton’s 3rd
Law
For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. There are so many examples in sports
where this law is applied.
Example: In swimming a swimmer pushes the water backwards (action) and the water pushes the
swimmer forward (reaction) with the same force.
8.4 Friction and its types
The force acting along two surfaces in contact which oppose the motion of one body over the
other is called the force of friction. Three types of friction are:-
(i) Static Friction: The opposing force that comes into play when one body tends to move over the
another surface but the actual motion has not yet started.
(ii) Limiting Friction: Limiting friction is the maximum of thing force that comes into play when
one body is just on the verge of moving over the surface of another body.
iii) Kinetic Friction: Kinetic friction is the opposing force at comes into play when one body is
actually moving over the surface of another body.

Introduction
Psychology
The word psychology is derived from a Greek word ‘psyche’ and ‘logos’. ‘Psyche’ – soul or
mind’ and ‘logos – study’. Generally it is accepted as study of behavior. Psychology is used in sport
to enhance performance and to know the factors which affect our performance, like – anxiety, stress,
personality, motivation, etc. Optimum level of anxiety is essential to perform in games and sports.
Sports Psychology and its importance in the field of sports
Sports psychology is the branch of applied psychology which deals with sports performance
and the Behavior of a player during training or competitions.
Importance of Sports psychology
(i)Learning of Motor Skills Sports psychology plays a major role in the learning of motor skills.
(ii)Motor skills learning depend on the individual’s level of readiness.
(iii) Identifying talent for Specific Sports Every sports has specific psychological demands. e.g
boxing requires more aggressiveness, whereas archery and shooting require more concentration.
(iv) Stabilizing the performance for longer period
(v) Important from Research point of View Sports psychologists works in very close proximity to
coaches to uplift the performance of players.
(vi) Encouraging the Players to Make a Comeback in Professional Sports psychology.
9.1 Personality and its traits and types
Personality
It is the dynamic organization within the individual of those psycho physical systems which
determine his unique adjustment to his environment. Personality is not static but a dynamic concept.
It is continuously changing and growing. Children may have identical environment. They may have
similar experiences but they react to the same environment in different way.
Personality is a very important factor in games and sports as it influences the performance of
individual by his/her level of cognition, motivation, traits and behaviour.
Cattell defined personality as “That which permits a prediction of what a person will do in a
given situation." Source Traits are the underlying basic factors of an individual’s personalities.
84
Types of Personality
*Jung’s Classification
(i)Introverts: - Introverts are shy, self-conscious quit retiring interested in the own thoughts and
feelings, inclined to worry and easily upset.
(ii) Extroverts: - Extroverts are social, open frank, outgoing, eager to do thing adaptable, not easily
worried or embarrassed and willing to work with others.
(iii) Ambiverts: - In ambiverts both the characteristics of introverts and extroverts are found. In
every person mostly both the characteristics are found through one of them may be predominant.
Sports play a very important role in personality development. It improves the following qualities. (a)
Self-concept (b) Mental toughness (c) Emotional stability (d) Quick Decision (e) Planning (Points to
be explained).
Sports and games play an important role in the development of human personality. They are
no less important than food and fresh water. Games and sports help to combat anxiety, depression
and stress. Sports train sportsmen to accept defeat gracefully and to move on.
Traits of personality
Big five Personality Theory
(a) Openness: -Persons which like to learn new things, new concepts and enjoy new experiences
usually remain on the top in openness. It includes traits like being imaginative, insightful, and having
a variety of interests.
(b) Conscientiousness:- Persons who have a high degree of conscientiousness are reliable and
prompt. Such persons remain organized, systematic, laborious and complete in all respects.
(c) Extroversion:- Extroverts gets their energy from interacting with other individuals whereas
introverts get their energy from within themselves. Extroversion includes the traits of being energetic,
talkative and assertive.
(d) Agreeableness:- Such individuals are friendly, cooperative, compatible, kind and gentle. Persons
with too agreeableness may be more distant or aloof. They are usually kind, generous, affectionate
and sympathetic.
(e) Neuroticism:- Neuroticism is also called emotional stability. This domain or dimension relates to
one’s emotional stability and the degree of negative emotions. Persons who have high neuroticism
usually experiences emotional instability and negative emotions. Such individuals remain moody and
tense.
Sheldon’s Classification of Personality
Endomorph
Endomorphs have a pear shaped and a rounded physique. They have short arms and legs. The
upper parts of arms and legs seem to be thicker than the lower parts. They have underdeveloped
muscles. They are more inclined to become obese. Their excessive mass hinders their ability to
compete in sports. These are most suitable for activities in which great strength is required.
85
Mesomorph
Mesomorphs have a rectangular shaped body with athletic physiques and a balanced body
composition. They are able to increase their muscles size quickly and easily. They have thick bones
and muscles. Their chest and shoulders are broader than the waistline. They can excel in sports which
require great strength, short bursts of energy and lots of power because they have enough strength,
agility and speed.
Ectomorph
Ectomorphs are usually referred to as slim persons because their muscles and limbs are
elongated. They have weak constitution of busy and face great difficulty in gaining weight. They
have flat chest and have less muscle mass. They do not have a lot of strength but they dominate the
endurance sports as their busy type is naturally suited to perform wonderfully in endurance sports.
They are best suited for games and sports like gymnastics and long distance races.
9.2-Motivation and its types & technique
Motivation means to be inspired to do something. It is a kind of inner force which energizes a
man to make constant efforts.
According to Crook and Stein, “Motivation is any condition that might energies and directs our
action. Motivation energizes an individual to behave in particular way for attaining a specific goal.
Types of Motivation
There are two types of motivation
(i) Intrinsic Motivation (ii) Extrinsic Motivation
(i) Intrinsic Motivation:-This motivation is within an individual and guides him/her to perform
better. It is based upon needs, interest, nature, emotions, social need etc. It also depends upon
knowledge of result, personal factor, competition zeal etc. He/she participates in sports for his/her
own sake.
(ii)Extrinsic Motivation:- This motivation depends upon environmental factors. It has a great impact
on an individual’s performance. It is of various types like rewards, punishment, active participation,
test evaluation, teaching methods, equipment and surroundings.
Technique of motivation-:
(a) Healthy Sports Environment: - A healthy sports environment plays a vital role in motivating the
sportsperson. Healthy sport environment consists of proper humidity and temperature, smooth and
clean sports fields, good quality of sports equipment and other facilities. Positive Attitude For proper
motivation, the coaches should try to encourage positive attitude among sportspersons. Players must
think positively.
(b) Cash Prizes, Certificates and Trophies: These are good incentives to sportspersons.
Governments offer cash prizes to sportspersons who win.
Some other method-
86

89
Meaning, concept & types of aggression in sports
Meaning and concept of aggression-:
According to Baron and Richardson, ―”Any form of behaviour directed towards the goal of
harming or injuring another living being who is motivated to avoid such treatment.”
Aggression is an action or response by an individual that delivers something unpleasant to
another person.
Aggression is behaviour with a goal of harming or injuring another being motivated to avoid
such treatment.”
Types of aggression
(i) Hostile aggression: Hostile aggression is inflicting or causing harm whether it is physical or
psychological on someone else. It is sometimes referred as reactive aggression and can be
accompanied by anger. In hostile aggression the main aim is to cause injury to other person. The
intention is on causing pain and suffering.
(ii) Instrumental aggression: Instrumental aggression is displaying aggressive behaviour in pursuit
of a non-aggressive goal. It is also known as channelled aggression is not accompanied by anger.
Instrumental aggression is behaviour that has intent to hurt in order to achieve money, praise or
victory.
Assertive behaviour:- Assertive behaviour is different type of aggression/aggressive
behaviour. This is defined as behaviour that involves the use of legitimate physical or verbal force to
achieve one’s purpose. In Assertive behaviour, the intention is to establish dominance rather than to
harm the opponent.

Training in Sports
Key Points: Strength-Definition, Types and Methods of Improving Strength-Isometric, Isotonic and
isokinetic.
Endurance-Definition, Types and Methods of Develop Endurance- Continuous Training, Interval
Training and Fartlek Training.
Speed-Definition, Types and Methods of Develop Speed—Acceleration Run and Pace Run.
Flexibility-Definition, Types and Methods to Improve Flexibility.
Coordinative Abilities-Definition and Types.
Circuit training-Introduction and Importance
10.1 Strength, its types and method of development Strength is the ability to overcome resistance or to act against resistance.
a) Maximum Strength: - It is the ability to overcome or to act against resistance. It is the maximum
force which is applied by the muscles to perform any certain activity. For developing maximum
strength intensity is high and repetitions are less.
b) Explosive Strength: - It is a combination of strength and speed abilities. It is the ability to
overcome resistance with high speed. For developing explosive strength, intensity is sub maximum
and repetitions are performed as fast as possible.
c) Strength Endurance:- It is the ability to overcome resistance or to act against resistance under
conditions of fatigue.
Method of development ISOMETRIC EXERCISE –
Isometric exercises are those exercises, which are not visible, a group of muscles carry out
tension against the other group of muscles. For example, pushing against a sturdy wall.
ISOTONIC EXERCISE The literal meaning of the word isotonic is constant tension i.e., iso means constant ant tonic
means tension. In this exercise the length of muscles change (shortens or lengthens) during action
along with tension in them.
ISOKINETIC EXERCISE These exercises are performed on specially designed machines. These exercises are developed
by Perrine in 1968. In these exercise, contraction of muscles applies maximum force only at a
particular angle of its range of movement.
10.2 Endurance its types and method of development Endurance- Endurance (also called Stamina, or Durability) is the ability of an organism to exert itself
and remain active for a long period of time, as well as its ability to resist, withstand, recover from,
and have immunity to wounds, or fatigue.
Types of Endurance: 1. Basic Endurance: Basis endurance is the ability to perform movements in which large numbers of
body muscles are involved and the activity is performed at slow pace for long duration such as
jogging, walking, slow running and swimming.
94
2. Speed Endurance: It is the ability to resist fatigue in activities lasting up to 45 seconds. The event
of 400 mts sprint is the most suitable example of speed endurance. This is mainly dependent upon the
power and capacity of energy production.
3. General Endurance: It is the ability to resist fatigue satisfactorily cause by different types of
activities. Activities may be aerobic or anaerobic in nature. These activities may be low or high
intensity but for longer duration.
Various methods to develop Endurance ability- a) Continuous method- The load administered for a prolonged period of time. As the loads are
continued for a long time the intensity of running is low. It may be slow continuous, fast continuous
and varied pace method.
b) Interval type of training-:It involves repeated efforts at are relatively faster pace, separated by
measured intervals of incomplete recovery. It is based on the principle of effort & recovery. It can be
classified into short time interval, middle time interval and longtime interval.
c) Fartlek training- Fartlek, developed in the 1930,s which means “speed play” in Swedish, is a
training method that blends continuous training with interval training. The variable intensity and
continuous nature of the exercise places stress on both the aerobic and anaerobic systems .Intensity
and speed can be varied whenever the athlete wishes. Fartlek training allows the athlete to run freely
over varying distances and at varying speeds. Fartlek allows the athlete to run at varying intensity
levels over distances of their choice. This type of training stresses both the aerobic and anaerobic
energy pathways.
Diagram-1. Warm up with a steady jog for approximately 7-10 minutes, 2. High intensity sprint, for
aproximately 60-75 seconds, 3. Light Jog for approximately 130-150 seconds, 4. Cool down with a
steady jog for 7-10 minutes, 5. Run hill or stairs, 6. Vertical jump from crouch position, 15-20 times,
7. Push-ups, 8. Sit-ups, 9. Lunges
10.3 Speed, its types and method of development
Speed is the rate of motion, or the rate of change of position. It is expressed as distance moved per
unit of time. Speed is measured in the same physical units of measurement as velocity. Speed is
defined as the ability of an individual to perform similar movements consecutively at fastest rate, e.g.,
short distance races like 100 metres and 200 metres. Speed as the capacity of an individual to perform
successive movement of the same pattern at a fast rate.
95
Types of Speed:
1) Movement speed: It is the ability to do a movement in minimum time. It depends upon technique,
explosive strength, flexibility and coordinative abilities.
2) Locomotor ability: It is the ability to maintain maximum speed for a maximum time or distance.
Events like 100mt, 200 mt, 400 mt requires this ability.
3) Speed Endurance: Speed endurance is the ability to perform movements with high speed under
conditions of fatigue. This depends upon technique, local muscular endurance and lactic acid
tolerance ability.
Methods for improving speed. 1) Acceleration runs- It is the ability to increase speed from jogging to running and finally sprinting.
It depends on explosive strength, frequency of movement & technique. To attain maximum speed
from a stationary position this is practiced after learning proper technique.
2) Pace run or races- A competitive pace race is a timed race in which the objective is not to finish
in the least time, but to finish within the prescribed time and in the best physical condition. In some
races, the prescribed time is very narrowly defined and the winner is the competitor who finishes
closest to the prescribed time. Complete recovery is ensured between two repetitions. This means to
running the whole distance of a race at a constant speed. In this the athlete runs the race with uniform
speed.
10.4 Flexibility, its types and method of development Following are the stretching ways for flexibility development:
Active stretching is where you are taking the muscle beyond its normal range of motion with
assistance (PNF or with the help of a partner)
Passive stretching allows the muscles and tendons to stretch naturally without the use of additional
forces acting on the muscle/tendon. The flexibility gains are not as great with passive stretching as it
is with active stretching.
1. Static stretching is a technique where the muscle is slowly stretched and then held in kthe
stretched position for several seconds. This type of stretching allows the muscle to be relaxed so that
a greater length can be achieved. It is the most frequently. Used and most recommend type of
stretching. There is a low risk of injury with this technique.
2. PNF stretching is much longer stretching session when compared to the other types. It requires a
partner‘s help to utilize this technique. The use of a partner is so that there can be a contraction and
relaxation phase. This type of stretching is actually the most effective form of stretching, but it is also
considered the most painful type of stretching,
3. Dynamic stretching is a technique that many athletes should be accustomed to. This type of
stretching can be in the form of leg swing walks or carioca just to name a few. This is a great way for
teens to work on their flexibility in a fun way. It allows them to be active and it can be done with
groups and teas. This type of stretching goes for more than two seconds and is done without stopping
the movement.
4. Ballistic stretching is a type of stretching, but it is not recommended for improving flexibility.
This type of stretching could lead to muscle soreness and injury because it is possible that this
technique could cause small tears in soft tissue due to the bouncing movements that force the muscle
to lengthen. Ballistic stretching due to the bouncing, could stretch ligaments too far if the movement
is not controlled.

10.5 Coordinative abilities and its types Coordination is the ability to repeatedly execute a sequence of movements smoothly and
accurately. This may involve the senses, muscular contractions and joint movements. Everything that
we participate in requires the ability to coordinate our limbs to achieve a successful outcome – from
walking to the more complex movements of athletic events like the pole vault.
Basic coordination abilities: Adaptive ability enables modifications of motor activity on the basis of comparison or anticipation
of new or changing conditions during performing motor activity.
Balance ability is understood as an ability to keep body or its parts in a relatively stable position.
Combinatory ability is understood as an ability to simultaneously put partial movements together
into more complex movement structures.
Orientation ability is an ability to realize position of the body or its parts in space and time. Rhythm
ability enables to grasp and meteorically express rhythm which is externally determined or contained
in the motor activity itself.
10.6 Circuit training In this training method in which certain exercise of various kind are performed with or
without apparatus with given dosage. It was developed by ―Adamson and Morgon in 1957. This is
considered for the development of ―strength & Endurance. Circuit training method is a scientific method which is based on overcoming various exercises at once. An exercise “circuit” is one
completion of all prescribed exercises in the program. When one circuit is complete, one begins the
first exercise again for the next circuit.
Benefit of circuit training. 1) It is easy and interesting method.
2) It requires short duration
3) It can be performed indoor and as well as outdoor
4) It involves the all organs of body
5) It can be easily supervised by the coach.
6) It provides an interesting atmosphere.
Importance points 1. It is the best method for beginners as it develops strength and endurance. Maximum functioning of
muscles can be gained in a single circuit.
2. It gives relief from any kind of tension. The trainee gains good result in a short period. It doesn‘t create boredom as lot variety of exercise can be included etc.
3. It is a workout routine that combines cardiovascular fitness and resistance training.
4. The initial routines were arranged in a circle, alternating between different muscle groups.
5. Circuit training plays an integral role in the offseason workouts of many professional athletes.
Beneficial & negative impacts of high altitude training Running or exercising at high altitudes in the beginning decreases the amount of oxygen getting to
the muscles. At low atmospheric pressure in the thin air makes the blood less oxygen rich as it passes
to the muscles. A number of physiological changes that occur with acclimatization enhance the
97
supply of oxygen to muscles and the more amount of oxygen definitely help in improving the sports
performance.
At high altitudes body produces a hormone known as erythropoietin which stimulates the
production of red blood cells which carry oxygen to the muscles of the body. If you have more red
blood cells, more amount of oxygen can be supplied to your muscles. Many other changes occur in
the body during acclimatization which helps in enhancing sports performance.
Points to be Remembers: Sports performance is to be achieved in sports competition.
I. When we take part in games and sports we try to perform our best and our performance
directly depends upon many factors.
II. Basically, the performance of the sportsman depends upon strength, endurance, speed
flexibility and coordination abilities.
III. Sports training is done for improving these factors and ultimately our performance.
IV. When an individual exerts muscular force against resistance in games and sports, it is called
his or her strength.
V. When an individual perform under the condition of fatigue for a long time, it is called his or
her endurance.
VI. In games and sports, when an individual performs a movements quickly, it is called his or her
speed.
VII. Flexibility is the range of movement of the joints of a sports person.
Coordinative ability:- The ability of an individual to do various related activities smoothly and
efficiently is known as coordinative ability.
98
Endurance:-

Write in details about strength improving methods – Isometric, Isotonic and Isokinetic.
Ans: - strength is the capacity of the whole body or parts of to exert force. There are two types of
strength – dynamic & static strength. Followings methods are used to improve strength”-
1. Isometric exercise: - means where we do these exercise work is done cannot be observed. In
these exercises, work is performed but it is not seen directly. In these exercise a group of
muscles. For example: pushing against the study wall, we will not be able to move it, from its
place. So, we should not consider it as work. Our muscle exerts force, while pushing wall, but
we see that work is not done. When we do exercise expenditure of energy is usual
phenomenon sometime body temperature may increase while performing these exercises.
Muscles may feel a slight tremor if exercise is done for a prolonged time. Regular performing
these exercise muscle size and shape can be changed.
2. Isotonic Exercise:- isotonic exercise are those exercise in which movements can be seen
directly . Work is done in these exercises. The lengthening and shortening of muscle can be
called eccentric contraction and concentric contraction accordingly.
Examples are- callisthenic exercise, running, and jumping on the spot, lifting of weights or
exercise with medicine ball. These exercises can be done with or without equipment.
3. Iso-kinetic Exercise: - in Iso-kinetic exercise contraction of muscle apply maximum forces
throughout the complete range of movements. According to individual’s capacity, the speed
of contraction can be adjusted. The Iso-kinetic exercise can be effectively for development of
strength.

25. Mention in detail about the Aerodynamic Principles and also discuss about the application of
aerodynamics in sports.
Ans: The principles of Aerodynamics are based on 4 forces of flight that helps an object move
through the air. The amount of each force compared to its opposing force determines how an object
moves through the air. These are: Lift: lift is the force that pushes the object to move upward. This
force acts opposite to weight. Weight: Weight is the force generated by the gravitational attraction of
the Earth. It controls how strong the push has to be. Drag: Drag is a force that tries to slow down the
object. It makes it hard for an object to move. It is also called air resistance force. Thrust: thrust is the
force that is opposite to drag. It is a push that moves an object forward. Application of Aerodynamics
in sports: Throwing Discus: the shape of discus is aerodynamic which gains greater lift as air speed
increases. So, it travels longer distance in the air before it touches the ground. Banana kick in
football: creating air pressure on the side of the ball to change the direction by applying top spin
helps in bringing down the ball quickly into the goal. Cycling: Air resistance slows down the cyclist.
Air pressure difference b/w front and back tyres can cause high drag. So, a cyclist assumes a dropped
position i.e. 20degree to the horizontal, to reduce the drag. Skiing: Skier takes a crouching position to
reduce air resistance and slowing down speed. The clothes, helmet and gloves are also designed to be
aerodynamic. Golf: the golf ball has dimples on it to reduce the drag. So the differential pressure
Material downloaded from myCBSEguide.com. 10 / 10 on the ball is less that allows the ball to stay
in air for a longer period. Baseball /Cricket: Stitches in the ball cause turbulence in the air, thereby
reducing the drag and further avoid the ball from getting slower. More spin greater lift and greater
curve. (Or any other suitable example)
26. What do you understand by High Altitude Training in sports? What is the impact of high altitude
training on athletes? Write in detail.
115
Ans: Sports training carried out at an altitude of 8000 to 10000ft/ 2000 – 2500mts. Impact of high
altitude training Increase erythroid protein hormone Increase in RBC count and size Increase VO2
max. Increase in lung capacity Inactive alveoli become active More capillarisation takes place Lactic
acid tolerance in body increases Ability of athletes to push harder and apply more power during
workout increases Athlete after training in high altitude gets competitive advantage when at sea level.
Due to changed physiological condition Change last for 10-20 days (short term impact) (Explain any

25. What is the impact of high altitude on Athletes? What measures would you suggest to reduce its
impact.
Ans. The impact of high altitude on Athletes:-
At high altitude the availability of oxygen to the body is less than at sea level. At high altitude, the
body is forced to produce a greater number of R.B.Cs to transport oxygen in an attempt to meet the
oxygen deficiency. At high altitudes athletes may experience sun burns, snow blindness. In fact,
exposure to higher altitude may also result in functional disorder as mountain or altitude sickness.
Measures to reduce the impact of high altitude:-
A. The most important being slow ascent so that your body can adjust to conditions at the right
pace (acclimatize).
B. If you develop symptoms of altitude sickness is to stop your ascent and rest at the same
altitude.
C. If your symptoms are severe, do not improve, or they are getting worse, you need to descend
to a lower altitude.
26. What do you mean by the term Energy? Discuss about kinetic and potential energy with suitable
example from sports.
Ans. Energy is the capacity to do work.
Kinetic Energy:-
The energy an object has because of its motion is called K.E.
(1)The kinetic energy of a moving object depends on its speed e.g. If a Javelin travels with maximum
speed then it has more K.E. and when touch the ground, it has no K.E.
(2)The kinetic energy also depends on the mass of the objects e.g. if a shot of 16 lbs and a shot of 8
lbs travel at the same speed, the 16 lbs shot has more K.E. than the 8 lbs shot.
Potential Energy:-
P.E. is the energy stored in an object because of its position or condition .In Archery, when you
stretch a bow; it acquires the ability of releasing an arrow with speed. It means that the stretched bow
also has P.E. The more it is stretched, the greater the speed with which it can release the arrow. It has
the P.E. because of its stretched condition.

33 Define posture. Enlist all the postural deformities. Explain any three of them.
Ans-
Posture is the position of the limbs in proper alignment
Postural deformities- kyphosis, scoliosis, lordosis, knock-knees, bowlegs and flat foot.
KYPHOSIS : Kyphosis implies an increase or exaggeration of a backward or posterior
curve or a decrease or reversal of a forward curve. It is also called round upper back.
Depression of chest is common in kyphosis.
Causes of kyphosis: kyphosis is caused by malnutrition, illness, crowd, deficiency of
pure air, insufficient exercises, rickets, carrying heavy loads on shoulders, unsuitable
furniture, weak muscles and habit of doing work by leaning forward etc.
remedies: The following exercises should be performed for remedification of kyphosis :
Sit in a chair, your buttocks should touch the back of chair. By looking upward,
hold your hands each other behind the back in such a way that your shoulders
may remain in stretch backwards. Remain in this position for some time:
Always keeps a pillow under your back while sleeping.
Bend your head backward in standing position.
Perform the dhanurasana, the yogic asana regularly.
LORDOSIS: Lordosis is the inward curvature of spine. In fact, it is an increased
forward curve in the lumber region. It creates problem in standing and walking. The
body seems to be stiff. The individual feels shame and inferiority. Lordosis can be
corrected in an early stage.
Causes of lordosis: Generally imbalanced diet, improper environment improper
development of muscles, obesity and diseases affecting vertebrae and spinal muscles are
such causes which result in lordosis. In addition to these causes, not performing
exercises and taking excessive food are also major causes of lordosis.
Remedies: For remedification of lordosis, following exercises should be performed:
From standing position bend forward from hip level. Repeat this exercise ten
times.
Lie down your back, raise your head and legs simultaneously for 10 times.
Perform sit-ups regularly
Hal asana should be performed regularly
You should lie down in supine position, i.e., on your back, then should raise
your legs at 45 degree angle. Remain in this position for some time.
SCOLIOSIS Postural adaptation of the spine in lateral position is called scoliosis. Scoliosis means
bending, twisting or rotating. In fact, these are sideways curves and may be called
scoliotic curves. These are defined in terms of their convexities. They are identified as
either convexity right or right convexity. A simple or single curve to the left or
5
141
convexity left is commonly called a ‘C’ curve. Scoliotic curve may be found in ‘S'
shape.
Causes of scoliosis: Scoliosis may be because of a lot of reasons but the main reasons
are disease in the joints of bones, underdeveloped legs, infantile paralysis, rickets etc. It
may also be due to carrying heavy weights on one shoulder, unhealthy conditions, like
inadequate lightning arrangement, unsuitable desks, partial deafness and wrong standing
posture. It may be caused by congenital or acquired abnormalities of vertebrae, muscles
or nerves.
Remedies:
Scoliosis can be remedied by performing following exercises:
Bending exercise should be performed in opposite side of ‘c’ shaped curve.
Hold the horizontal bar with your hands and swing your body to the left and
right side.
To swim by using breast stroke technique.
