Firstly, start a post called:

Skills and Techniques required for Volleyball

This will include a video of perfect technique, a video of you performing the skill, coaching points and a description of the shot and when it should be used in a game

For your videos, watch the tutorial below to see how to embed your videos on blogger. Try to get all of your videos embedded by the end of this lesson:

 


If you finish, you should (under each video):
  • Analyse your strengths
  • Recognise your weaknesses
  • State what you should do to improve your weaknesses
  • Try to find the same skill performed by a professional on YouTube
  • Embed that video below yours

Borg's (RPE) Scale

Borg scale
In sports and particularly exercise testing, the Borg RPE Scale measures perceived exertion. In medicine this is used to document the patient's exertion during a test, and sports coaches use the scale to assess the intensity of training and competition. The original scale introduced by Gunnar Borg rated exertion on a scale of 6-20. Borg then constructed a category (C) ratio (R) scale, the Borg CR10 Scale. This is especially used in clinical diagnosis of breathlessness and dyspnea, chest pain, angina and musculo-skeletal pain.
 
The seemingly odd range of 6-20 is to follow the general heart rate of a healthy adult by multiplying by 10. For instance, a perceived exertion of 12 would be expected to coincide with a heart rate of roughly 120 beats per minute.
 
Set points on scale
It ranges from 6 to 20, where 6 means "no exertion at all" and 20 means "maximal exertion." Choose the number from below that best describes your level of exertion. This will give you a good idea of the intensity level of your activity, and you can use this information to speed up or slow down your movements to reach your desired range.
 
Try to appraise your feeling of exertion as honestly as possible, without thinking about what the actual physical load is. Your own feeling of effort and exertion is important, not how it compares to other people's. Look at the scales and the expressions and then give a number.
 
19 on the scale is an extremely strenuous exercise level. For most people this is the most strenuous exercise they have ever experienced.
