This educational DVD learning resource looks at the factors that can affect an athlete or sports person's performance. Exercise physiology is discussed, including training principles and methods, fitness testing, working intensities and the importance of warm-ups and cool-downs. Sports psychology including mental imagery, goal-setting and arousal are explored, and skill acquisition is considered in detail. The programme concludes by looking at how participants can plan for improvement in their performances through analysis, evaluation and strategizing.
