Sample cards from this deck
Definition
Define Challenges
Rising demand and cost (older people carry more chronic disease, hospital use and pharmaceutical use); aged-care and health workforce shortages; a falling worker-to-retiree ratio straining the tax base; and higher rates of dementia, multimorbidity and social isolation. These reduce wellbeing and load the system at the same time.
Definition
Define Linear motion
Linear motion is movement in a straight or curved line where the whole body travels together (a bobsled push, a swimmer gliding). Angular motion is rotation about an axis (a somersault, a discus turn, a joint flexing). Most sporting actions combine both: a gymnast rotates (angular) while travelling across the floor (linear).
Definition
Australian health care system and health services: HSC Health and Movement Science Focus Area 1
Define Commonwealth Government
Funds Medicare rebates for medical services, the Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme (PBS) for subsidised medicines, the Medicare Benefits Schedule (MBS), private health insurance rebates, and a share of public hospital funding through National Health Reform Agreements.
Definition
Define Sequencing across the microcycle
A microcycle is roughly a week of sessions. Arrange hard and easy days so recovery is built in (a hard speed-endurance day is followed by an easy or recovery day), so that adaptation occurs rather than accumulating fatigue. How a single session fits the longer plan (mesocycles, phases of the year) belongs to yearly-training-program-periodisation - cross-reference it, do not repeat it.
Definition
Complementary and alternative healthcare approaches: HSC Health and Movement Science Focus Area 1
Define Products
Vitamin and mineral supplements (vitamin D, fish oil, multivitamins), herbal preparations (echinacea, St John's wort, garlic extract), homeopathic preparations, aromatherapy oils. Most are sold over the counter without a prescription.
Definition
Performance-enhancing drugs and doping in sport: HSC Health and Movement Science Focus Area 2
Define Anabolic-androgenic steroids
Anabolic-androgenic steroids (e.g. testosterone, stanozolol, nandrolone). Synthetic versions of testosterone. They raise muscle protein synthesis, so an athlete gains muscle mass, strength and power and recovers faster between hard sessions (so they can train harder). The most abused class in strength/power sports.
Definition
Being a critical health consumer: HSC Health and Movement Science Focus Area 1
Define Motive / conflict of interest
Does the claimant gain - selling the product, sponsored, or earning affiliate commission? A sales motive should lower trust.
Definition
Energy systems and training types: HSC Health and Movement Science Focus Area 2
Define ATP
ATP (adenosine triphosphate). The body has three pathways to resynthesise ATP, which dominate at different exercise intensities and durations.
Definition
Determinants of health and health inequities: HSC Health and Movement Science Focus Area 1
Define Individual (biological) determinants
Genetics, sex, age, body composition. Largely non-modifiable. Examples: genetic risk for breast cancer (BRCA1/2), age-related cardiovascular risk, biological sex differences in autoimmune disease.
Definition
Injury prevention, rehabilitation and return to play: HSC Health and Movement Science Focus Area 2
Define Prevention
Prevention is the road crew that fills small cracks early and stops trucks overloading the road - a good warm-up, sensible training loads, the right boots and surface. Classifying the injury is just describing the pothole: did a truck smash it open from outside (direct) or did the road buckle under its own traffic (indirect); is it a surface crack in the soft top layer (soft tissue - sprains, strains, bruises) or has the concrete slab underneath cracked (hard tissue - broken bones)? An injury that builds up from thousands of small hits with no repair time is an overuse injury.
