fitness components Flashcards
8 components are related to either
anaerobic or aerobic energy systems
12 fitness components which are
5 health and 7 skill related
5 health related fitness
Aerobic power, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, body composition.
7 skill related fitness
anaerobic capacity, speed, coordination, muscular power, agility, balance, reaction time
aerobic power
the body’s ability to sustain long time intensity exercise by producing energy through continuous oxygen supply
muscular strengths
the force a muscle or group of muscles can apply in one maximal effort.
eg. racquet grips, rock climbing
limiting factor of muscular strength is
the muscular phosphor creatine (PC) and adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP) stores
muscular endurance
the capacity of a group of muscles to contract repeatedly against a light resistance and to delay the onset of fatigue
what are seemed as limiting factors of muscular endurance
Lactic acid (LA) and H+
-body parts they affect are marathon legs, water polo arms and legs. legs and abdominals in dancing or synchronized swimming.
it causes your limbs to feel like jelly
flexibility
the rang of motion (ROM) around a joint
methods of improving flexibility
PNF stretching, Static stretching, dynamic/ ballistic stretching
body composition
the proportion of fat and fat free mass in ur body
healthy body composition includes
lower percentage of body fat and a higher percentage of fat free mass which includes muscle bones and organs
body composition is measured by … given male and female percentage
fat percentage
male 5-18%, female 12-25%
Anaerobic capacity
the ability to produce energy without the need for oxygen. the total amount of energy available from the anaerobic energy system
