I said about antagonistic pairs, movement at the joint (flexion and extension) and how muscles are joint to the skeletal system via ligaments and tendons

Hey Guys - thought I'd join in as I also took today!

In my practical I got full marks so I was on a C and I want an A* so I needed 60 marks - did I think I got it... maybe not probably just short if anything.

The last question I looked like my leg was having a spaz attack underneath the table (anyone else kick an imaginary football?) I talked about the antagonistic pairs and how the skeletal system allows for movement through the ligaments and tendons (although I got them mixed up🙈)

Did anyone have to try and stop themselves from laughing at the bike question? or just me?

How did you answer the interval training for the 10,000m runner??

I got 45 out of 50 too, do you know how many marks we would need for a B or A in the theory exam today (out of 80) :P

Bike question I said about how the bike replicates the physical activity so it was specific and for the 10,000 meter question I said in the race it will include the runner running at different paces for example medium jog throughout the race but towards the end it'll be more like a sprint and this is similar to interval as it has changes in speed. :smile:
