MAPEH (P.E) Flashcards
is defined as a condition in which an individual has enough energy to avoid fatigue and enjoy life.
Fitness
FACTS
Physical fitness is divided into four health-related and six skill-related components.
is the ability to become and stay physically healthy.
Health-related fitness
enhances one’s performance in athletic or sports events.
Skill-related fitness
Health Components
Cardiovascular fitness,
Muscular strength, and endurance,
Flexibility,
Body composition
Skill Components
Agility,
Balance,
Power,
Speed,
Coordination,
Reaction time
focus on factors that promote optimum health and prevent the onset of disease and problems associated with an activity.
Health-related-components
is the ability of the heart (cardio) and circulatory system (vascular) to supply oxygen to muscles for an extended period of time Cardiovascular is also called cardiorespiratory (lungs) fitness
Cardiovascular fitness
is the muscle’s ability to produce effort or perform work. Muscular strength refers to the maximum amount of force a muscle can exert against an opposing force. Refers to the ability of the muscle to work over an extended period of time without fatigue.
Muscular strength and endurance
is the ability to move a body part through a full range of motion (ROM) at a joint. The sit-and-reach is commonly used to determine this.
Flexibility
is the ratio of body fat to lean body mass. Having too many fat tissues is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, cancer, and arthritis.
Body Composition
Health-related Fitness Tests
A. Body Mass Index (BMI)
The following formula is used to get the BMI:
WEIGHT [in kilograms]
HEIGHT [in meters]2
Example: 30/(1.2)^2 = 30/1.44 = 20.83 (normal)
Classification:
Below 18.5 UNDERWEIGHT
18.6 - 24.9 NORMAL
25 - 29.9 OVERWEIGHT
30.0 - Above OBESE
is a good predictor of
the amount of visceral fat which increase risk for cardiovascular disease and diabetes than fat located in other areas of the body such the arms and legs.
Waist Circumference
refers to the muscle’s ability to generate force against physical object.
STRENGTH
to measure strength of the upper extremities.
NINETY-DEGREE PUSH-UP
to measure strength of abdominal
muscles
CURL-UPS
is a test of flexibility for the lower extremities particularly the hamstring.
SIT AND REACH
is a test of upper arm and shoulder girdle flexibility intended to parallel the strength / endurance assessment of the region.
ZIPPER TEST
is the ability of the heart, lungs, and blood vessel to deliver oxygen to working muscles and tissues
CARDIOVASCULAR ENDURANCE
