Health Related and Skill Related FitnessLesson #3
WHAT IS FITNESS? PHYSICAL FITNESS DEFINITON: Ability of the whole body (muscles, skeleton, heart & other body parts) to do work together efficientlyAbility to do the most work with the least amount of effort2 CATEGORIES HEALTH RELATED FITNESSSKILL RELATED FITNESS
HEALTH RELATED FITNESS To be healthy you should have at least some of each of the heath related components of fitness. If you do, you are less likely to develop other health problems related to a lack of exercise. (ex. heart disease, high blood pressure, back pain, obesity).
CARDIOVASCULAR ENDURANCE The ability to exercise the entire body for long periods of time Requires a strong heart, healthy lungs & clear blood vessels to supply the body with O2.
STRENGTH Amount of force you put forth with your muscles Can be measured by how much weight you can liftAdvantages: fewer problems with backaches, carry out daily tasks efficiently
MUSCULAR ENDURANCE Ability to use the muscles many times without getting tired Advantages: better posture, fewer back problems, less likely to tire easily
FLEXIBILITY Ability to use your joints fully Muscles are long enough & the joints are free enough to allow movementAdvantages: fewer sore and injured muscles, less chance of injuries
BODY COMPOSITION Percentage of body weight that is fat compared to other body tissues, such as bone and muscle High % of body fat = increased rates of illness and death
SKILL RELATED FITNESS If you are good at these skill related components of fitness, you are likely to be good at sports and games. Different sports require different components but most require more than just one of these areas. Some people have more natural ability in these areas but no matter where your strengths lie, you can always find some type of physical activity that you can enjoy.
AGILITY Ability to change the position of your body quickly & to control the movement of your whole body
BALANCE Ability to keep an upright posture while standing still or moving
COORDINATION Ability to use your senses, such as your eyes, together with your body parts, such as your arms Using 2 or more body parts togetherGood hand-eye or foot-eye coordination
POWER Ability to do strength performances quickly Involves both strength & speed
REACTION TIME Amount of time it takes to get moving once you see the need to move Make fast starts in track & swimming
SPEED Ability to perform a movement or cover a distance in a short period of time Leg speed = run fast over short distanceArm speed = throw fast or hit fast balls
IMPORTANCEIt is important to note that good health does not come from being good in skill related components of fitness. Good health comes from participating in activities designed to improve your HEALTH RELATED FITNESS.
