Log 5: Modified Touch 2 - 7/8/18

Yesterday during our game of Modified touch 2 the two factors that influenced my participation were Challenge and Fun/Enjoyment.

The factor that influenced my participation was a challenge because trying to not drop the ball was difficult. This made me challenge myself to keep trying to not drop the ball and keep playing to get our team a try.

Fun/Enjoyment influenced my participation because I had fun playing along with my teammates. I enjoyed this because i got to bond with people i don't usually play with this made our game more fun and enjoyable.

Log 4: King Dodge-ball - 3/8/18

On Friday during our game of King Dodgeball, I really liked playing this game the two
factors that influenced my participation was pushed to physical and/or mental limits and success.

Pushed the body to physical and or/mental limits influenced my participation because I know if  I don't push myself or stay in my comfort zone I won't be able to achieve something during our game. During the lesson, I pushed my myself beyond my limits and stepped outside my comfort zone and it made feel good being the last man standing during this lesson.

Success influenced my participation because I managed to stay in the game longer and not give up. I felt good about this because I had succeeded in this lesson that I usually don't try to participate in.

Log 3: Modified Touch -31/08/18

Yesterday during our game modified touch the two factors that I influenced my participation were

Challenge and Social factors.

Challenge influence my participation because when I was marking my opponent it was
hard keeping up with her. This forced me to challenge myself not to give up and to keep playing
to benefit the team.

Social Factors influenced my participation because I was able to communicate with my team
and working as a team using communication helped us worked as a team to score points.

Log 2: Island Ball - 24/07/18

On Tuesday during our game Island ball, the two factors that I influenced my participation were Well - being and sense of achievement.

Well-being influence my participation because I know if I participated and not sit out I know it would boost up my physical well-being up and make me a little bit fitter.

A sense of Achievement influences my participation because I knew that I would get a lot of achievement out of Island ball. Participating and helping out my team and not giving up made me feel like I had a good session and also like I achieved something.

Log 1: Ki-O-Rahi - 3/07/18

The last term during our game Ki-O-Rahi I did not participate in this game,
so I influenced none of the two factors. But I also did let down my team by
not participating and giving it a try.

Physiology Section

When I play Basketball some short-term responses to exercise are increasing breathing rate and increase heart rate.  Breathing speeds up to get more oxygen and to get rid of more carbon dioxide in my muscles. The pulse rate (heart) is beating faster to produce blood so it can pump through my muscles to produce more oxygen for my muscle to be able to move.

The first short-term response to exercise is how your heart rate increases while playing basketball. This happens in Basketball because when your running to try to get the ball your heart rate pumps faster to move more oxygen into your muscle.

The second short-term response to exercise is how your breathing increases while playing basketball. This happens in Basketball because while you're running your breathing rate speeds up to get more oxygen to your muscles and to get rid of carbon dioxide so you can keep moving.

If I was to play Basketball for a season, some long-term adaptions are that your hearts is going to get better at doing its job because it is getting bigger and stronger and your muscles get bigger and stronger because of the protein your providing.

The first long-term adaption when playing Basketball is that your muscles get bigger and stronger. This happens because when training your muscles tear and you will need to provide protein to your muscles to help repair your muscles to become bigger and stronger.

The second long-term adaption when playing Basketball is that your heart rate will decrease over time because it's becoming stronger because it is a muscle, therefore, it doesn't have to work as hard and is more efficient. Because the heart is stronger it is able to pump more blood and you'll be able to run longer periods.

Follow-Through Phase

In the follow-through phase, I still need to contract certain segments. To make sure my shot is effective I need to contract my smaller muscles in my arm. I can see that I am still following the principle of sequencing because I am using my smaller arm muscles last.

While moving from the execution phase to follow through phase both of my shoulder and elbow joints are working. The shoulder joint is a ball and socket joint. The movement in this phase is  the shoulder extension my antagonist muscle is my pectoralis major and the agonist is lasstissmus dorsi. Also, I can see that my elbow is extending which means that my antagonist muscle is my biceps and my agonist muscle is my triceps.

In the follow-through phase, I am using Newton's third law. Newton's third law states that the third law of motion is that for every force, there is an equal reaction force in the opposite direction. First of all the force, I produced in my preparation is equaled to the force that is generated in my follow-through phase. I can see that I am using Newton's third law because I can see that the force I have produced in my preparation phase is being applied to my follow-through phase because my arms are fully extended and my shoulder are extending. 

In the follow-through phase, balance and stability are still important in producing a well-executed shot. To be balanced in this phase I need to make sure that when I make my shot that I am stabled and that both of my legs are constantly stabled and my feet are planted on the ground. Also, I know I am balanced because my center of gravity is located inside my body. The differences/similarities I can see in my balance and stability is that we both are tipping toeing and that our hands are above our head and that we are both standing our base of support.
