If it is to be, it is up to me.

2. What are we trying to learn?
What is the difference between health-related and skill-related physical fitness?
What are the health-related components of physical fitness?
What are the skill-related components of physical fitness?

3. What are we trying to learn?
Why does a person not have to be a good athlete to be physically fit?
Why is it important to know your current level of health-related fitness?

4. Vocabulary skill-related fitness—
components of physical fitness that contribute to the ability to successfully participate in sports components of physical fitness that contribute to how well the systems of the body operate the range of movement possible at various joints ability of the heart, blood vessels, and respiratory system to supply oxygen and nutrients to the muscles during exercise
health-related fitness—
flexibility—
cardiovascular fitness—

5. Vocabulary muscular strength—
ability of muscles to exert a force one time ability to use muscles for a long period of time ratio of fat to muscle, bone, and other body tissues provides an indication of the appropriateness of your weight relative to your height ability to change the position of the body and to control the movement of the whole body ability to keep an upright posture while standing still or moving ability to do strength performances at a rapid pace
muscular endurance—
body composition—
body mass index
(BMI)—
Agility—

6. Vocabulary reaction time—
amount of time it takes to get moving once the senses signal the need to move integration of eye, hand, and foot movements ability to cover a distance in a short time
coordination—
speed—

7. Components of Physical Fitness
Skill-related fitness — components of physical fitness that contribute to the ability to successfully participate in sports
Health-related fitness — satisfactory or healthy levels of flexibility, cardiovascular fitness, muscular strength and endurance, and body composition (5 components)

8. Health-related Fitness
Can prevent disease and promote health by reducing risks for certain diseases
5 components
Flexibility
Cardiovascular fitness
Muscular strength
Muscular endurance
Body composition

9. Flexibility Ability to move body joints through a full range of motion
Tests
Sit-and-reach
Shoulder lift

10. Cardiovascular Fitness
Ability of heart, blood vessels, and respiratory system to supply oxygen and fuel to muscles as work is performed over a sustained period of time
Sustained aerobic exercise (15-30 min)
Tests
Stress test
Step test
Distance run

11. Stress Test
A stress test, sometimes called a treadmill test or exercise test, helps a doctor find out how well your heart handles work. As your body works harder during the test, it requires more oxygen, so the heart must pump more blood. The test can show if the blood supply is reduced in the arteries that supply the heart. It also helps doctors know the kind and level of exercise appropriate for a patient.

12. A Person Taking The Test
is hooked up to equipment to monitor the heart.
walks slowly in place on a treadmill. Then the speed is increased for a faster pace and the treadmill is tilted to produce the effect of going up a small hill.
may be asked to breathe into a tube for a couple of minutes.
can stop the test at any time if needed.
afterwards will sit or lie down to have their heart and blood pressure checked.

13. Muscular Strength & Endurance
Strength — ability of a muscle group to apply maximal force against a resistance one time
Endurance — ability to repeat muscle movements for a long period of time
Tests
Sit-ups
Pull-ups

14. Body Composition Ratio of fat to muscle, bone and other tissues Tests
Skinfold

15. Body Mass Index (BMI)
Provides an indication of the appropriateness of your weight relative to your height

18. Skill-related Fitness
6 factors help give you a competitive edge
Agility
Balance
Power
Reaction time
Coordination
Speed

19. Agility
Ability to change body position and control movement of whole body
Tests
Shuttle-run

20. Balance Ability to stay upright while standing or moving Tests
Standing as long as possible on one foot
Balance board / roller board
Balance beam
Headstand / handstands

21. Do you have balance like this?

22. Power Ability to perform with strength at a rapid pace Tests
Vertical jump
Standing long
jump

23. Reaction Time
Amount of time it takes to start movement once you receive the signal to move
Tests
Yardstick

24. Coordination Integration of eye, hands and/or foot movement Tests
Dribbling and shooting basketballs
Place kicking, punting footballs
Dribbling soccer balls

25. Speed Ability to cover distances in a short time Tests 50-yard dash

26. Importance of Self-testing
Know level of present fitness before starting a program
Know how to assess and interpret results
To evaluate and update your goals
