Components of Fitness
48
Components of HRF Cardiovascular Fitness/Endurance Body Composition Muscular Endurance Flexibility Strength
49
Health Related Fitness Physical fitness is made up of health related and skill related components. There are five main health related fitness components. Cardiovascular Fitness/Endurance- this is how well the circulatory system can supply oxygen to the muscles and how efficiently the muscles can use oxygen to sustain energetic activity.
50
Cardiovascular fitness (also known as cardiorespiratory fitness) Aerobic exercise improves cardiovascular fitness.Aerobic exercise
51
Strength- this is the amount of force a muscle can exert. Anaerobic exercise improves muscular strength.Anaerobic exercise Anaerobic Exercise? –Anaerobic exercise is short-lasting, high-intensity activity, where your body’s demand for oxygen exceeds the oxygen supply available. Anaerobic exercise relies on energy sources that are stored in the muscles and, unlike aerobic exercise, is not dependent on oxygen from (breathing) the air. Examples of anaerobic exercise include: heavy weight-lifting, all types of sprints (running, biking, etc.), jumping rope, hill climbing, interval training, isometrics, or any rapid burst of hard exercise.
52
Muscular Endurance- this is the ability of muscles to work for long periods without getting tired. repeat a movement many times or to hold a particular position for an extended period of time. Both aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise can improve muscular endurance.
53
Flexibility- this is the range of movement in a joint (or groups of joints). the degree to which an individual muscle will lengthen. Stretching improves flexibility.Stretching
54
Body CompositionBody Composition Body composition is the amount of fat in the body compared to the amount of lean mass (muscle, bones, organs etc.).
