How the skeletal, muscular, respiratory, circulatory, digestive, endocrine and nervous systems influence and respond to movement; the energy systems, nutrition and training that fuel performance; how movement skills are acquired and improved; and the psychology behind participation and performance.
Syllabus note: Health and Movement Science 11–12 (2023). Outcomes HM-11-03 and HM-11-04, with the skills outcomes HM-11-05 to HM-11-10 applied throughout. The depth studies draw 20 hours of in-class time from this focus area and Focus Area 1 combined, so the lesson sequence is written against less than the full 40 hours.
