1 Freshmen Foundations Power Point 2
Goals and Fitness Testing

2 Goals should be… Written Obtainable Realistic Measurable

3 A Goal is not: I will run faster.

4 I will improve my mile time by 5 seconds.
A Goal is: I will improve my mile time by 5 seconds.

5 Fitness Assessments: In order to write goals, you need to know where you stand. We use fitness testing to find where you’re starting from and where you need improvement.

6 Various Types of Tests:
Cardiovascular Endurance: PACER Time intervals get closer together as the time increases. Mile With a heart rate monitor and without

7 Various Types of Tests:
Muscular Endurance: Sit Up Test Muscular Strength: Push Up Test

8 Various Types of Tests:
Flexibility: Sit and Reach Body Composition Bioelectrical Impedance Ratio of body fat to lean body mass: Boys: 12-18% Girls: 18-24%

9 The Right way to Work Out:
Warm Up: Benefits: Decreases strain on heart Flexibility of tendons and ligaments is increased Faster nerve impulse transmission Body gets ready for more intense exercise Increases body temperature gradually Decreases risk of injury

10 The Right way to Work Out:
The Warm Up: Correct Technique: Start slow and gradually increase intensity Goal is to raise body temp, start moving oxygen and increase blood to muscles to prepare for exercise. Example would be to jog for 5 minutes followed by a stretch. Move Slowly and Rhythmically Focus on full Body Range of Motion Don’t bounce, jerk or force positions

11 The Right way to Work Out:
The Work Out: Design work out plans based around your goals. To vary your workouts, remember to change part of the F.I.T.T. Philosophy and/or S.P.O.R.T. principle. Remember results will not happen over night, but over time with a good workout plan and good diet. Work both cardiovascular and muscular systems for at least 30 mins on a routine basis to see best results.

12 The Right way to Work Out
The Cool Down: Necessary to lower heart rate and prevent muscle soreness Goals of a cool down: Prevents blood from pooling in arms and legs Returns blood to heart Flushes muscles of waste produced during exercise (lactic acid) Prevents soreness

13 The Right way to Work Out
The Cool Down: Correct Technique: Gradually decrease the intensity Spend 5 minutes at a slower pace Heart Rate should be under 120 BPM before sitting down Stretch muscles used during workout

14 Two Types of Exercise: AEROBIC: “With Oxygen” Fat Metabolism
Continuous activity Long, Slow, Evenly Paced Creates Endurance Examples: running, swimming, rowing, cycling, jogging, cross country skiing

15 Two Types of Exercise ANAEROBIC: “without Oxygen” Sugar Metabolism
Stored Energy Short, fast, all-out Causes Quick Fatigue Examples: sprinting, weight-lifting, racquet ball.
