Analysis
Involvement:
My client does physical activity 4 days a week. The two types of activities she does are ice-skating and jogging. These sessions are about an hour long. She does meet the 60 minute physical activity recommendation and has time to do rest and recovery.
Intensity:
The intensity that my client does with her physical activity is at a high intensity. Ice-skating is a very aerobic activity as well as jogging. Both require a significant amount of energy and can be very tiring. The activities she does are at a high aerobic level, and increase your heart rate by a lot.
Type:
As I’ve stated before my client does ice-skating and jogging, the activities are aerobic and increase your heart rate by a lot. The ice-skating is performed on a flat surface with no hills or curves. The jogging terrain can differ every day because there are many different routes she can take.
Rest/Recovery:
After my client has done a session of either jogging or ice-skating she does a session of stretching. Once the skating session is done she will get off the ice, find somewhere flat to sit and stretch the muscles that are hurting. Her jogging recovery is a little bit different but the same in a few ways. Once my client has finished about 75% of her jog she will walk the rest. This keeps her heart rate up a little but relaxes her legs. As well as doing a walk on the way home when my client does get home she will also do some stretches.
Inactivity:
The intensity of my client’s sessions is at a high aerobic level. The jog isn’t a full on sprint but rather a fast jog over a long period of time and over a long distance. The skating sessions are ether a game of hockey or a relay. These are at a high intensity do to how fast and hard you are required to skate. Your heart rate increases due to how much energy is required to push yourself along the ice.
Strengths of timetable:
My client’s timetable is very good due to a number of different factors. She manages to reach the 60 minute physical activity recommendation as well as making room for rest and recovery. Her schedule is really good as well because she is spending all of her free time doing physical activity. She only does physical activity on weekdays which gives her time to do what she wants on the weekend.
Weaknesses of timetable:
My client doesn’t really have any weaknesses about her timetable. If there is a main one I did have to choose though is priority. Physical activity is important to make sure your body stays healthy so that it can fight of disease and other things but there are some other things that are more important. My client is putting a lot of time into physical activity when some other things like school should be given more of a focus. She spends more time doing jogging and skating than she does homework and other things like that. She also needs to either replace or allocate more time to flexibility training and rest and recovery.
