2.  Fitness  Capability of the body of distrusting inhaled oxygen to muscle tissue during increased physical effort.  Effort  This concept defines how the body moves. It consists of three components: time (faster or slower), force (harder or softer), and flow (bound or free).

3.  Strength  Amount of force that muscles apply when they are used.  You use your strength when you lift boxes or push a lawn mower.  Endurance  Ability to do activities for more than a few minutes.  Paddling a boat uses both strength and endurance

4.  Flexibility  Ability to bend and twist joints easily.  You use flexibility when you bend down, twist your body, or reach for something  Body Composition  Compares the weight of your fat to the weight of your muscles, bones, and organs.  Physical activity can improve body composition.

5.  Why should you exercise?  Improve self-esteem, prevent or alleviate the effects of depression, and relieve.  Improve bone density.  Reduces the risk of some forms of cancer.  Improve the quality of life for people with diabetes, arthritis, and asthma.

6.  FitnessGram Test  Pacer  Curl-Ups  Push-Ups  Trunk Lift  Sit n Reach

7.  F: Frequency  Refers to how often you exercise  I: Intensity  Refers to how hard you exercise  T: Time  How long you exercise  T: Type  What you do when you exercise.

8.  One way to see how hard you are exercising is to check your heart rate.  Target heart rate zone is 60 to 85 percent of your maximum heart rate.  Maximum heart rate (MHR) is the largest number of times you heart can beat while exercising.  MHR = 220 – age

9.  On the board you have been put into a category. I.E. Pacer, Push-Up, Curl-Up or Sit- n-Reach  Your task is to come up with as many activities, sports, stretches, or games as you can that will help you do better at that Fitness Test.  Minimum is 10

10.  Create a television commercial to convince people to become fit.  Use songs, jokes, or catchy slogans to get the audience to exercise.

11.  Flexibility  The elasticity of muscles and connective tissue, which determines the range of motion of joints.  Goal  Aim: something that somebody wants to achieve. A predetermined plan of action.

12.  “A world-champion sprinter can run 100 meters in less than 10 seconds. But can a sprinter run a marathon in an hour?”  A sprinter can’t run a marathon in an hour. The sprinter would run out of energy before he or she could finish.  Sprinters and marathon runners use different energy systems when they run.

13.  Fun Fact!  Your body gets energy from the food you eat.  The sugars in foods, such as fruit and bread, are changed into sugar call glucose.  Your body uses oxygen to get energy from glucose.

14.  When your body uses oxygen to get energy, the process is called aerobic exercise.  Aerobic Exercise: exercise that uses oxygen to get energy.  Long distance running and swimming.

15.  Glycogen is another sugar made from the food you eat.  Your body releases energy from glycogen without using oxygen.  Anaerobic Exercise is fueled without using oxygen.  Sprinting

16. Sportsmanship: the ability to treat all players, officials, and fans fairly during competition.

20.  Warning Signs of Injury (6 common signs)  Sharp pain  Tenderness in a single area  Swelling  A reduced range of motion around a joint  Muscle weakness  Numbness or tingling

21.  Overtraining :condition that happens when you exercise too much.  You feel tired all the time  You aren’t doing as well during games and practices  You are less interested in the activity  Your resting heart rate increases  You may get hurt more often. Your body hasn’t had a chance to heal from past injuries.
