stage 2- how the athlete views the demand e.g positive or negative, this will affect how you view the demand, as a challenge or as a threat.
stage 3- arousal levels e.g eustress or distress, eustress will give you increased motivation whereas distress will give you worries about the demand.
stage 4- the outcome e.g better or worsened performance

Positive- when your team win a game due to being focused ad training hard in training before the game.
Negative- getting injured in a pre-season game that will affect you by not being able to play at the start of the season.
Positive+Negative- winning a game but not performing as well as you would like to have done.
Trait Anxiety- someone with a high level of trait anxiety would find situations worrying even when they aren't as threatening. For example, a striker may feel worried about a 1v1 situation whereas the goalkeeper may feel less worried about the situation.
State Anxiety- this is a temporary state of your mood which will change depending on the situation the athlete is in that is considered threatening. For example, at the start of a football match you would experience high anxiety as you are preparing for the game. You would experience low anxiety during the game and then high during the closing stages.]]> 2021-02-08 09:35:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jhgibbons/w4355wf8mggpwreo/wish/1175939572 https://padlet.com/jhgibbons/w4355wf8mggpwreo/wish/1175939822 stage 1 demand- so this is where a demand or task comes up for you to do. so a heavy deadlift 

stage 2 perception of demand- this is how to athlete would see the demand and there and then decide whether they are going to take it as a challenge or as a threat. so some people when going for the deadlift would be worried if they get hurt or if they cant do it this would be looking at it as a threat. but someone who takes it as a challenge would be someone who doesn't care about the injury risk or not being able to do it.

stage 3 increase arousal levels- this would be where the performer would either be eustress which would be the person who takes the challenge as a challenge. or the performer would take it as distress this is because they would worry and this performer would be the one who takes the challenge as a threat.

stage 4 outcome- so the positive performer would perform way  better than the performer who is negative about the situation and they would be way to nervous to perform at half of their best.

the most stress I have every been was the first time I did a free weight bench press and as a lifted the bar up with 5kg on each side and I started to get really nevous and I forgot to breath because I was stressed about it crushing my chest and I couldn't lift the bar up because I wasn't breathing but that was just led than 2 years ago.

a positive way I take stress is when I have to go for a personal best on deadlifting this is because I purposefully make my self stressed because I have trained my self to embrace the stress and use it for my personal gain so I perform better.

where I have used both types of stress is when I do high inanity training and it gets me nervous because I have low cardio levels naturely and I struggle to get better cardio so I wont b able to do as well but I still use all my strength and I focus on the goal.

anxiety:
I don't get this and I haven't had this in years but if I had to link it to how people would before I would say that the performer who is usualy laid back and very calm with the situation wont before better than the performer who has high anxiety levels this is because I believe you don't perform better or worst if you suffer from anxiety I do believe the mental part but I don't think it effects you physically with your performance other than your blood rate and how oxygenised your muscles are. but with research the person who suffers worst with anxiety it would make them doubt them self in most situations

stage 2- perception  of demand-  depending on the task you can find it as a fun challenge  or a worry to perform that task.
stage 3- increased arousal levels-  basically this stage is when finally getting to do the task a your level of arousal or adrenaline increases because knowing the unexpected or decreases for the same 
stage 4-  outcome- its the final output on your performance when finishing the task.

eg. starting off or ending in a baton relay.]]> 2021-02-08 09:35:28 UTC https://padlet.com/jhgibbons/w4355wf8mggpwreo/wish/1175939976 https://padlet.com/jhgibbons/w4355wf8mggpwreo/wish/1175940096 stage 1- demand- it can be physical and psychological, so when a task needs go be completed, e.g. last free-throw to either win or tie a game.
stage 2- appraisal of the demand and of the available resources and capability to deal with the demand.
stage 3- a negative response to demand and the resources with various levels of anxiety.
stage 4- stress response, which affects behaviour and performance.]]> 2021-02-08 09:35:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jhgibbons/w4355wf8mggpwreo/wish/1175940096 https://padlet.com/jhgibbons/w4355wf8mggpwreo/wish/1175940945 Stage 1- The demand
Stage 2-Perception of demand (the threat that is perceived by the athlete)
Stage 3- Increased arousal levels (the response to stress e.g. attention changes)
Stage 4- Outcome (the consequences of the athletes behaviour which affects performance and the outcome)
Positive scenario- Winning a race/ getting a new PB.
Negative- getting injured, not making semi finals, no PB
Positive + negative- winning a race but not getting a PB.
Trait anxiety- I don't get that nervous before a race however, other people do.
Another example is when it is near the end of the race and I tend to tense up when I am eagerly trying to get to the line and the other person is relaxed so they tend to get there first.
State anxiety- This could be me running calmly but see someone beside me which causes me to tense up.
Another example is qualifying in the heats calmly but then getting nervous coming to the semi finals.]]> 2021-02-08 09:35:44 UTC https://padlet.com/jhgibbons/w4355wf8mggpwreo/wish/1175940945 cau20261021 https://padlet.com/jhgibbons/w4355wf8mggpwreo/wish/1175941973 1- Demand is a tasks you have to do. Penalty shootout
2-  Challenging or a threating task (attackers being a threat to defenders)
3- Increased arousal,, Where players will perform better if they are enjoying the game. 
4 - outcome, More aroused player will play more positively and the stressed player wont be playing as he should and can cause slip ups.

As a result, the demand by the athlete can be taken either positively, which is good, or negatively which could be a threat. Higher arousal levels take place and in the last lap, the person can either take the opportunity on depending on how they're feeling. Eustress will result in a strong finish, and this is because the increase of motivation and the additional form of energy will help the individual to push and finish a successful race. This 4th outcome can be known as an 'increased performance'. On the other hand, if this causes a setback for the individual, then this can cause distress and nothing but increased anxiety which won't help the individual to finish the race positively by finishing well and the thought of anxiety will hold them back without no motivation because it's lacking and can cause a 'reduced performance'.

1) Positive scenario of anxiety- 1 positive scenario of anxiety could involve someone that's been through experiences where nerves kick in before, but they find positive thoughts out of it which links to eustress because of that increased motivation. So, as of now, I would say before I'm running, I take positive thoughts out of the race because I've been through situations in the past where I wouldn't have been so confident where I wouldn't know what to expect.
Negative thoughts regarding myself will show I'll have no energy, drive and anxiety to do things. This would regard my first cross-country race I ever did, as I doubts over things whether I could complete the race or do well.

Trait anxiety- This could regard two players who individually, are the two best players on the pitch and they're both under pressure to score a last minute goal. It results in performers to feel worried in a variety of situations even if they aren't threatening. An example in regards to myself would be a penalty-shoot out that I experienced in the past. With the score being level at 4-4 and at sudden death, I noticed myself and someone similar to me were the last two penalty takers at the fifth attempt. As a result, I came out on top, however, no matter the situation, there was always a thought of worry in my head, especially in this scenario.

State anxiety- Currently, I would say state anxiety is the most ideal for me. During a race, I tend to feel nervous despite at the start of the race and my intensity would be slow but high levels of state anxiety would still occur. During the race, I would start to feel a little bit more comfortable and my anxiety would decrease. Finally, if it regards a situation where there's a 50/50 chance with me trying to secure a top 15 finish, then extreme high levels of anxiety will occur throughout the next 30 odd seconds of the race.

Athletes perception - stage 2 of the stress process the demand is taken In a positive or negative.

Player 2 that has high trait anxiety that are anxious about every situation (threatening or not). 

State anxiety is a temporary mood or emotional response to a situation that I considered threatening. Eg. High state anxiety from a match, low state anxiety during the match, high state anxiety towards the end of the match.
