physical fitness ppt topic Flashcards
ability to carry out daily tasks with vigor and alertness, without undue fatigue and ample energy to enjoy leisure-time pursuits and to meet unforeseen emergencies
physical fitness
components of fitness
cardiovascular endurance
muscular strength
muscular endurance
flexibility
body composition
ability of the circulatory system to supply oxygen to working muscles during exercise
cardiovascular endurance
examples of physical activities under cardiovascular endurance
walking, swimming, cycling, running, and rowing
refers to the maximum amount of force a muscle can produce in a single contraction
muscular strength
examples of muscular strength
bench press
bent over row
deadlift
squat lunge
bicep curl
tricep dip
refers to the ability of a muscle to continue contractions for an extended period of time without fatigue
muscular endurance
examples of muscular endurance
push up
sit up
pull up
plank hold
walking lunges
refers to the ability to move a body part through a full range of motion at a joint
flexibility
examples of flexibility
static stretches
dynamic stretches
refers to the ratio of body fat to lean body mass
body composition
relative percentage of body fat compared to lean body mass
body composition
measures the strength and endurance of the chest and the arms to withstand heavy tasks
push ups
measures the strength and flexibility of the muscles in the lower back extensor to maintain a healthy back
trunk lift
components of skill related fitness
agility
speed
power
balance
coordination
reaction time
ability of the body to change direction quickly and effectively while under control
agility
examples of agility
football, soccer, tennis, volleyball, basketball
ability to move quickly from one point to another
speed
examples of speed
front crawl, butterfly, back stroke, sprinting
ability to do strength work at an explosive pace
power
examples of power
lifts, plyometrics, baseball, boxing, golf, track and field (high jump, long jump, pole vault)
ability to maintain an upright posture while in a stationary position or while moving.
balance
examples of balance
yoga, pilates, gymnastics, single leg exercises
integration of hand and/or foot movements with the input of the senses
coordination
examples of activities that require coordination
zumba, body pump, body attack, baseball, basketball, jumping rope, martial arts
amount of time it takes to react to a stimulus
reaction time
examples of activities that require a fast reaction time
tennis, badminton, baseball and cricket, sprinting, speed skating, swimming, martial arts
defined as a condition in which an individual has enough energy to avoid fatigue
fitness
it means we have a slightly different response to an exercise program
principle of individual difference
one size does not fit all
principle of individual difference
greater than normal load
principle of overload
principle that states that a greater normal stress or load on the body is required for training adaptation to take place
principle of overload
principle that implies that there is an optimal level of overload that should be achieved, and an optimal time frame for this overload to occur
principle of progression
optimal level of overload
principle of progression
it also stresses the need for proper rest and recovery
principle of progression
body’s ability to adjust
principle of adaptation
refers to the body’s ability to adjust to increased or decreased physical demands.
principle of adaptation
use it or lose it
principle of use/disuse
this principle implies that when it comes to fitness, you do actually “use it or lose it”
principle of use/disuse
practice makes perfect
principle of specificity
this principle implies that when it comes to fitness, you do actually use it or lose it.
principles of use/disuse
