1. Physical Activity- Any form of movement that utilizes large muscle groups (purposeful or during daily routine)

2.  Physical Activity: any movement that requires your large muscle groups to work  Lifelong fitness: the ability to stay healthy and fit as you age  Develop long term and short term goals to achieve the benefits of an active lifestyle

3.  - Health related components of physical fitness (cardiorespiratory endurance, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, and body composition)  - Reduces risk of illness and disease (diabetes, cardiovascular disease, obesity)  - Improves body system functioning  (cardiovascular system, respiratory system, nervous system (react and respond faster to stimuli)

4.  Opportunity to interact and cooperate with others  Can build communication skills, problem solving, teamwork, dedication, courage, integrity  Fun and productive activity

5.  Releases Endorphins (block pain messages to the brain and helps to improve mood)  Increased self confidence and self image  Pride and accomplishment  Reduces mental fatigue by allowing more oxygen to the brain  Decrease depression and stress  Improved mood (helps to stimulate the release of certain chemicals)

6.  Sedentary lifestyle- way of life that involves little physical activity  Diabetes- prevents the body from converting food into energy (fails to utilize glucose, metabolism disorder)  Osteoporosis- decrease in bone density (fragile and weak bones)  Cardiovascular disease  Obesity  Breast and colon cancer

7.  Cardiorespiratory endurance  Muscular strength  Muscular Endurance  Flexibility  Body Composition

8.  The ability of the heart, lungs, and blood vessels to utilize and send fuel and oxygen to the body’s tissues during long periods of moderate-to vigorous activity

9.  The amount of force a muscle can exert (maximal strength)

10.  The ability of the muscles to perform physical tasks over a period of time without becoming fatigued.

11.  The ability to move a body part through a full range of motion

12.  The ratio of body fat to lean body tissue (lean body tissue includes muscle, bone, water, and connective tissue)

13.  Aerobic exercise:  LONG exercise requiring a lot of oxygen  Large muscle groups  Rhythmic in nature  At least for 10 minutes straight, cross country, biking, long distance swimming  Anaerobic exercise:  Short intense bursts of activity  Producing energy without oxygen  100 meter dash/Lifting weights

14.  Warm up and cool down sessions help to prevent injury and increase flexibility  Dynamic stretching: Moving, beneficial to begin blood flow, plyometrics are an example, improve skill form  Static: Holding a stretch, beneficial to increase flexibility  Ballistic: Dangerous, Bouncing type of stretching  PNR:
