  1. 5 COMPONENTS OF HEALTH-RELATED FITNESS

  2. Cardiovascular Endurance • Muscular Strength • Muscular Endurance • Flexibility • Body Composition The Components of Physical Fitness are:

  3. DO YOU REMEMBER THIS… • F.I.T.T • CARDIOVASCULAR EXERCISES

  4. F = Frequency I = Intensity T = Time T = Type “To gain health benefits in all 5 components of fitness….. FITT Principle ….how often should I work out?” ….how much effort should I put in?” ….how long should my workout be?” …what type of exercises should I do?”

  5. Cardiovascular Endurance is the ability to do activities that require increased oxygen. • Aerobic activities are good at maintaining or improving c-v fitness and they can also be used to improve other components of fitness

  6. Using the F.I.T.T. Principle to build a training program to improve cardio-vascular endurance: • Frequency: 3 to 4 days per week • Intensity: Workout in the target heart rate zone (@145-185 beats per minute) • Time: Work non-stop for at least 20 minutes • Type of activity: power walking, bicycling, swimming, soccer, basketball, lacrosse, ultimate Frisbee, jogging CARDIO-VASCULAR ENDURANCE(Synonyms: Cardio-Respiratory Endurance, Stamina, Aerobic Fitness, Heart/Lung Endurance)

  7. Muscular Strength • Muscular Strength is the ability to use your muscles to perform various activities. • Muscular strength refers to the ability to exert force against a resistance or resist a force for a short period of time.

  8. Using the F.I.T.T. Principle to build a program to improve MUSCULAR STRENGTH using a weight room: • FREQUENCY: 2 to 3 days per week • INTENSITY: heavier weights;lessreps • TIME: 6 seconds per lift but lift until fatigue sets in • TYPE OF ACTIVITY: free-weight weight training

  9. Muscular Endurance • Muscular Endurance is the ability to use muscular strength over a set period of time. • Muscular endurance refers to the ability to keep working muscles over a period of time without becoming tired or fatigued.

  10. Using the F.I.T.T. Principle to build a program to improve MUSCULAR ENDURANCE using a weight room: FREQUENCY: 3 to 5 days per week INTENSITY: lighter weights; more reps TIME: 6 seconds per lift but lift until fatigue sets in TYPE OF ACTIVITY: free-weight weight training

  11. Flexibility • Flexibility is the ability to bend and move the joints through a full range of motion. • Every physical education class begins with a warm-up phase that is beneficial in the development of flexibility. The amount of flexibility that a person possesses can be seen by how easily they can bend, twist or stretch. People who are active tend to have better flexibility than someone who is sedentary. Being sedentary can cause people to have weak and / or stiff joints.

  12. Using the F.I.T.T. Principle to maintain or improve flexibility: • Frequency: daily • Intensity: Stretch muscle beyond its normal resting length • Time: Hold each stretch for 10 to 15 seconds • Type of Activity: Static stretching (slowly stretching a muscle until a tension is felt), Passive stretching (a partner or device exerts force for the stretch)

  13. Factors that can affect flexibility: • · age • · body temperature (warmer muscles are more ‘elastic’) • · gender • · injuries • · excessive body fat • · lifestyle (active or sedentary) • · genetics Benefits of maintaining and / or improving flexibility: • · healthy joints • decreased risk of joint injury • increased range of motion • helps control stability • ·improved hamstring and lower back flexibility reduces risk of lower back pain • maintenance stretching, after an activity, can reduce delayed on-set of muscle stiffness and / or soreness • maintenance stretching, after an activity, reduces risk of muscle cramping ·stretching can relieve muscle tension caused by stress • being flexible allows a person to be more functional (able to participate more fully in daily and • sport-related activities)

  14. Body Composition • Body composition refers to the amount of muscles, bones, and fat tissue that make up your body. One of the keys to having a healthy body is to have a good balance between the amount of muscle and fat tissue in thebody. • Having too much body fat puts an extra demand on the heart and the joints. It also raises a person’s risk of heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure and having too little body fat is not healthy either. People need body fat to protect their organs, insulate the body and to have as a stored source of energy.
