2  Being physically active helps to balance the health triangle ◦ Physical Health – you are creating more energy, activity strengthens your bones/muscles, improves coordination, balances, and helps you maintain a healthy weight by burning calories (uses them up) ◦ Mental/Emotional – able to handle stress/challenges of everyday life, high self-esteem, and helps to concentrate. ◦ Social – helps to meet new people, helps ability to resolve conflict. How fitness relates to the Health Triangle

3  The ability to handle the physical demands of everyday life without becoming overly tired. ◦ Examples – playing sports, dance, using large muscles to complete everyday activities….mowing the lawn, climbing stairs. What is Physical Fitness?

4  Exercise – planned physical activity done regularly to build or maintain one’s fitness.  Exercise falls into 2 basic categories…. ◦ Aerobic exercise – nonstop, moderate to vigorous activity that requires large amounts of oxygen.  Muscles worked: HEART  Benefits: LUNGS  Example: swimming, running, biking, dancing ◦ Anaerobic exercise – intense, physical activity that requires little oxygen but uses short bursts of energy.  Examples: lifting weights, gymnastics, and football Exercise

5  There are 5 ways to measure fitness ◦ Can you name all five?  Cardiovascular Endurance  Muscular Strength  Muscular Endurance  Flexibility  Body Composition Health Related Measures of Fitness

6  Cardiovascular endurance is a measure of how efficiently your heart and lungs work when you exercise. It also measures how quickly your heart and lungs return to normal. ◦ Endure means “to last”  Stepping activity ☺  Stand up behind your chair and give yourself enough space to lightly jog in place. When I say go you will jog in place for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes I will have you check your pulse. When I say go you will count how many beats in 1 minute. Once you get your number please use the chart above to determine if you have an acceptable or low endurance. Cardiovascular Endurance ScoringRating 70-100Acceptable 101 or morelow

7  After an activity place 2 fingers just below your jaw line, until you can find your pulse.  For 6 seconds count how many times you feel your pulse beat.  Add a zero to the end of your number ◦ Example: I counted 17 beats in 6 seconds….my heart beats 170 times per minute! ◦ RESTING – children age 10+ should be 60-100 BPM ◦ Target during exercise – age 15 should be 123-164 BPM ◦ MAX HEART RATE – 220 minus your age. 220-13=107 Do you know how to determine how many times your heart beats in 1 minute?

8  A measure of the most weight you can lift or the most force you can exert at one time. ◦ Example of muscular strength  Push Up Test  Curl Up Test Muscular Strength (Max Force)

9  A measure of a muscle’s ability to repeatedly exert a force over a prolonged period of time. ◦ Examples:  Push Up Test  Curl Up Test Muscular Endurance (Repeat an Action)

10  The ability to your body’s joints to move easily through a full range of motion.  What test do we use? ◦ Examples:  Bending your knee to stretch quads  Twisting side to side to stretch your back  Reaching to the sky to stretch your abdominals Flexibility

11  The ratio of body fat to lean body tissue ◦ Examples include bone, muscle, and fluid ◦ IMPORTANT: to improve in this area diet and exercise play a role.  Healthy eating and exercise will help shed excess weight/maintain healthy weight ◦ Ways to measure Body Comp.  Skinfold Test  Underwater Weighing  BodPod Body Composition

13  How often you exercise. ◦ Before you start exercising be sure to warm up with 10 minutes of low intensity activity to get blood flowing.  Examples: Jumping Jacks, Fast paced walk ◦ Start with three days a week and gradually increase the number of days each week.  3-5 days a week, but everyday is possible. Frequency

14  How HARD you exercise. ◦ Moderate Activity – Raking the leaves, brisk walk, goalie in Hockey. ◦ Vigorous Activity – increase in heart rate. Running a 5K, being a midfielder in soccer, taking an exercise class. ◦ Make at least 15 minutes of vigorous activity! Intensity
