On participation and performance in physical activity
3. There are many reasons why people do or don’t
do sport, the most relevant;
Time
Resources
Fitness/Ability
Health problems
Access
4. Work and other commitments take up lots of time
‘I haven’t got the time’
BUT...
How many people get home from work and then spend time
watching TV
People choose to spend leisure time, passively and not
activiely
5. This depends on where you live
Facilities and sports clubs are not found everywhere
This will obviously effect whether you can do a certain
sport
One way of overcoming this would be, for the
government or sports facilities to provide transport to
and from these facilities.
6. Lots of people don’t think theya re good enough to join
a club
Why?
Previous experiences to do with sport
E.G. A PE lesson, they failed a task, got humiliated and
therefore feel hopeless in that activity
How do you change this?
The person experiences success in the activity, so they
regain their confidence
7. Some people have genuine health reasons for not taking part
BUT
Doctors will always suggest having an active lifestyle to prevent
lots of problems
Most rehabilitation programmes include exercise, so why not
sport
Obesity is increasing rapidly in the western world, due to diet
and lack of exercise. But being overweight may be the reason
they don't do exercise (embarrising)
Encouragement and the right condidtions are vital for these
people.
E.G. Weight watchers
Lack of self-esteem is a huge problem to why people don’t
exercise, this must be addressed, by giving the person success
and positive experiences with sport and exercsie
8. There has been a growth in sports facilities and there are
low-cost courses.
BUT
Some people still cannot afford these costs...
Most important Q’s asked by people;
What is available?, What is affordable?, Will I fit in?
Issues related to ACCESS
Opening times – convenient to the person
Age – ‘young persons sport’ so elderly don’t take part
Race – racial discrimination may be experienced, e.g. A
black person joining a predominantly white golf club
Disability – Lack of facilities (wheelchair access)
9. AGE: Life expectancy is going up, therefore people are
living longer.
There are more veteran teams in various sports, and a
growing awareness that activity in older age is
beneficial.
DISABILITY: Those with disabilities have much better
access to sport.
Disability sport is know in its own right now with many
internationally recognised athletes in the UK
10. The media has played a major part in changing the anture
of exercise in the UK
High technology brings sports from around the world to the
UK.
Sports, exercise and healthy living are often headline news,
with documentaries, films and promotional products
associated with ACTIVE, HEALTHY LIFESTYLES
Media has been beneficial in promoting sport and exercise
11. These are choices that people make, that affect their
health:
Smoking
Drugs
Other lifestyle factors
12. Few people that are serious about a healthy lifestyle
smoke.
All evidence points to smoking being detrimental to your
health, whatever your age
Cigarettes contain, tar, nicotine, carbon monoxide and
other irritants
Normally haemoglobin carries O2 in the body, but
prefers carbon monoxide, and once it carries this it
cannot carry O2 again.
This can take away up to 10% of your O2 carry capacity
13.
14. Smoking is also the biggest cause of preventable death
in the western world.
120,000 people die in the UK every year, most dying of,
cancer, chronic obstructive lung disease
(bronchitis/emphysema) and coronary heart disease
Around 29% of men and 25% of women smoke in the UK
1 in every 2 smokers will probably be killed because of
the habit
15.
16. The use of drugs is wide spread and seriously affects
health and well-being
Two types:
Recreational (e.g. Cannabis)
Performance enhancing (e.g. Anabolic steroids)
Drugs (the chemicals) alter the way we feel and see
things
Most drugs are also addictive, so hard to stop
Addiction includes; anxiety, depression, low self esteem
17. Doping is a serious concern in sport and UK Sport is
designated by the government to try and prevent this.
There are three methods that athletes will use to boost
the red blood cells in the circulation to improve
performance (BLOOD DOPING)
Using ergthroprotein (EPO)
Using synthetic oxygen carriers
Blood transfusions
Anti doping involves tests to see if this has occured
18. Athlete’s at the top level must be very careful to make
sure that any medication taken doesn’t have banned
substance s in them
Especially when they go abroad

23. There are some other lifestyle factors that will affect a
persons performance,
Which include sleep and the job that you have
SLEEP; this will obvious affect how well you play sport, on
average we sleep 7.75hrs a day (between 5 and 11hrs)
Your JOB; the type of job will affect your performance,
people that sit at a desk all day (sedentary type of job)
will have different fitness levels to someone that ahs an
active job.
