P.E WORK
Metabolism: refers to the processes your body uses to break down nutrients, form compounds the cells can use for energy and use those compounds to fuel cellular functions. Your body secretes enzymes to break down food into sugars, proteins, and fats. Then each cell of your body can take these in and use them in aerobic or anaerobic metabolic processes to form adenosine triphosphate (ATP) which is the fuel used in the cell.
The calories from food are burned in this way to produce energy in each cell. Your body's overall metabolism includes muscle contraction, breathing, blood circulation, maintaining body temperature, digesting food, eliminating wastes, and the functions of the brain and nervous system. The rate at which you burn calories is called your metabolic rate.
Anaerobic metabolism: is the creation of energy through the combustion of carbohydrates in the absence of oxygen. This occurs when your lungs cannot put enough oxygen into the bloodstream to keep up with the demands of your muscles for energy. It generally is used only for short bursts of activity, such as when you go for a sprint when running or cycling or when you are lifting heavy weights.When there isn't enough oxygen in the bloodstream, glucose and glycogen cannot be fully broken down to carbon dioxide and water. Instead, lactic acid is produced, which can build up in the muscles and degrade muscle function.
Aerobic metabolism: is the way your body creates energy through the combustion of carbohydrates, amino acids, and fats in the presence of oxygen. Combustion means burning, which is why this is called burning sugars, fats, and proteins for energy. Aerobic metabolism is used for the sustained production of energy for exercise and other body functions. Examples of exercises that use aerobic metabolism include walking, running, or cycling with sustained effort.
Here are the differences between anaerobic and aerobic metabolism:
-Aerobic respiration is the respiration which takes place in the presence of oxygen.
-The end products of aerobic respiration are carbon dioxide and water.
-The amount of energy released in aerobic respiration is very high.
-Anaerobic respiration is the respiration which takes place in the absence of oxygen.
-The end products of anaerobic respiration are carbon dioxide and ethanol or lactic acid.
-Anaerobic respiration helps in fermentation of yeast to produce ethyl alcohol or ethanol in beverage industry.
Here are a few useful facts about how anaerobic metabolism affects your body during exercise:
-Weight lifting and other strength exercises use anaerobic metabolism when providing strenuous effort in a short period of time.
-When running or cycling very fast your body turns to anaerobic metabolism to get enough energy.
-Sprinters' muscles use anaerobic metabolism to fuel their muscles during their short burst of speed.
-Anaerobic metabolism produces lactic acid, which can build up in the muscles to the point where you "feel the burn." This burning sensation is a normal side effect of anaerobic metabolism.
-Fast twitch muscle fibers rely more on anaerobic metabolism for quick contractions, but they fatigue more quickly as well.
-With high-intensity intervals, you can turn a normally aerobic exercise like endurance running into an anaerobic exercise as anaerobic metabolism is needed once you exceed 90 percent of maximum heart rate.

FNP
WHAT IS THE FNP?
The FNP is a more advanced form of flexibility training that involves both a stretch and a contraction of the muscle group being targeted.
The FNP has four phases:
-You hold the muscle you want to exercise for 20 seconds.
-Six or eight seconds of agonist contraction.
-Three or five seconds to relax the muscle.
-Twenty seconds to stretch again the muscles.
Quadriceps FNP:
Hamstrings FNP:
General syndrome:
General adaptation syndrome is a three-stage response that the body has to stress.
Threshold Law.
The threshold law is a claimed lawconcerning the effects of pharmaca or poisons in various concentrations. It states that: For every substance, small doses stimulate, moderate doses inhibit, large doses kill.
Training load:
Training load is a textual feedback on the strenuousness of a single training session.The main components of training load are volume and intensity. These must be increased to cause progressive overload and adaptation. Also, there is a trade-off between volume and intensity: in most cases, volume goes down as intensity increases and vice-versa.
Example:
Two players reached different training effect score from the workout (3.2 vs 4.0). All the interval sprints were performed in high intensity training zone (red). The reason was found from the heart rate recovery between the sprints. Player A recovered more quickly between the sprints whereas player B stayed in the high intensity training zone also during the recovery breaks.

Hamstrings FNP:
General syndrome:
General adaptation syndrome is a three-stage response that the body has to stress.
1: Alarm: Upon perceiving a stressor, the body reacts with a “fight-or-flight” response and the sympathetic nervous system is stimulated as the body’s resources are mobilized to meet the threat or danger.
2: Resistance: The body resists and compensates as the parasympathetic nervous system attempts to return many physiological functions to normal levels while body focuses resources against the stressor and remains on alert.
3: Exhaustion: If the stressor or stressors continue beyond the body’s capacity, the resources become exhausted and the body is susceptible to disease and death.

-Principles related to the stimulation of physical conditioning.
- Principles related to the systems to which said stimulus is directed.
- Principles related to the response to said stimulus
Zintl:
- Those who initiate the adaptation.
- Those that guarantee adaptation.
- Those who exercise a specific control of adaptation.
- Those that guarantee adaptation.
- Those who exercise a specific control of adaptation.

THE EVOLUTION OF THE COMPUTERS
A computer is a device that can be instructed to carry out sequences of arithmetic or logical operations automatically via computer programming.
The computer as we know it today had its beginning with a 19th century English mathematics professor name Charles Babbage.
He designed the Analytical Engine and it was this design that the basic framework of the computers of today are based on.
Generally speaking, computers can be classified into three generations. Each generation lasted for a certain period of
time,and each gave us either a new and improved computer or an improvement to the existing computer.
First generation: 1937 – 1946 - In 1937 the first electronic digital computer was built by Dr. John V. Atanasoff and Clifford Berry. It was called the Atanasoff-Berry Computer (ABC).
Second generation: 1947 – 1962 - This generation of computers used transistors instead of vacuum tubes which were more reliable. In 1951 the first computer for commercial use was introduced to the public; the Universal Automatic Computer (UNIVAC 1). In 1953 the International Business Machine (IBM) 650 and 700 series computers made their mark in the computer world. During this generation of computers over 100 computer programming languages were developed, computers had memory and operating systems. Storage media such as tape and disk were in use also were printers for output.
Third generation: 1963 - present - The invention of integrated circuit brought us the third generation of computers. With this invention computers became smaller, more powerful more reliable and they are able to run many different programs at the same time. In1980 Microsoft Disk Operating System (MS-Dos) was born and in 1981 IBM introduced the personal computer (PC) for home and office use. Three years later Apple gave us the Macintosh computer with its icon driven interface and the 90s gave us Windows operating system.
As a result of the various improvements to the development of the computer we have seen the computer being used in all areas of life. It is a very useful tool that will continue to experience new development as time passes.

In 1943 an electronic computer name the Colossus was
built for the military. Other developments continued until in 1946 the first general– purpose digital computer, the Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC) was built. It is said that this computer weighed 30 tons, and had 18,000 vacuum tubes which was used for processing. When this computer was turned on for the first time lights dim in sections of Philadelphia. Computers of this generation could only perform single task, and they had no operating system.
Second generation: 1947 – 1962 - This generation of computers used transistors instead of vacuum tubes which were more reliable.
