Section 19, Article XIV (14) of the 1987 Constitution of Republic of the Philippines
is a the integral part of the whole educational program designed to promote the optimum development of the individual physically, socially, emotionally, and mentally through total body movement in the performance of property selected physical activities.
PHYSICAL EDUCATION
is to the human body what fine-tuning is to an engine. It enables us to perform up to our potential.
Physical fitness
activity is one of the most important things you can do for your health. Being physically active can improve your brain health, help manage weight, reduce the risk of disease, strengthen bones and muscles, and improve your ability to do everyday activities.
Regular physical activity
It is a key marker of health and fitness.
Cardio-Respiratory Endurance
is the maximum rate that oxygen can be used by the body during intense exercise.
VO2 max
is when lactic acid starts rapidly building up in the bloodstream during exercise, contributing to fatigue.
LACTATE THRESHOLD
is how quickly the heart rate decreases after a workout.
HEART RATE RECOVERY
Higher aerobic capacity lowers the risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and high blood pressure.
CARDIOVASCULAR HEALTH
Better cardio-respiratory fitness ensures sufficient oxygen transport for proper bodily functions.
GENERAL HEALTH
There are several key components related to overall health and physical fitness. Four major categories aside from cardio-respiratory endurance are muscular strength, muscular endurance, body composition, and flexibility
HEALTH RELATED
refers to the maximal force or tension that muscle or muscle group can exert in a single effort.
MUSCULAR STRENGTH
importance of muscular strength
-Allows for performance of everyday tasks like lifting groceries or yard work.
-Maintains functional independence as we age.
- Supports athletic performance for sports
- Helps prevent injuries to muscle and joints
- Contributes to healthy body composition through metabolism
It is defined as the ability of a muscle or muscle group to perform repeated contractions against a light-moderate load an extended period
MUSCULAR ENDURANCE
importance of muscular endurance
-Allows muscle to perform repetitive tasks without early fatigue
-Necessary for activities requiring sustained physical activity over time.
-Helps prevent overuse-type injuries
-Contributes to the ability to carry out daily activities requiring muscular efforts.
enables us to lift, carry, and complete force-requiring tasks by exerting maximal power from muscles.
MUSCULAR STRENGTH
allows sustained, repeated muscle exertions before fatigue through aerobic activity and higher rep training.
MUSCULAR ENDURANCE
compares lean mass to fat mass. Added muscle and less body fat support metabolism and reduces disease risks.
BODY COMPOSITION
