Objectives
 Define Exercise
 Identify and describe the different types of
exercise: Aerobic, Anaerobic, Isometric, Isotonic,
and Isokinetic.
 Describe warm-up and cool-down.
 Know the 6 Training Principles
 Identify at least 5 lifetime sports and physical
activities.
Define Physical Activity
 Physical Activity is any bodily movement
produced by skeletal muscles that results in energy
expenditure. Any form of muscle movement.
 What is Regular Physical Activity?
Define Physical Fitness
 Physical Fitness is “a dynamic state of energy and
vitality that enables one to carry out daily tasks, to
engage in active leisure-time pursuits, and to meet
unforeseen emergencies without undue fatigue…”
 Physical Fitness is “the ability to perform physical
activity and to meet the demands of daily living while
being energetic and alert.”
 Physical Fitness is a set of attributes that people
have or achieve, which relates to the ability to
perform activity.
Health Related Physical Fitness Components
 Cardiorespiratory Endurance

The ability of the circulatory and respiratory systems to supply
oxygen during sustained physical activity.
 Muscular Strength

The maximum amount of force a muscle can produce in a single
effort.
 Muscular Endurance

The ability of the muscle to continue to perform without fatigue.
 Flexibility

The ability to bend and move the joints through the full range of
motion
 Body Composition

The ratio of lean tissue to fat tissue in the body.
Skill Related Physical Fitness Components
 Agility

The ability to rapidly change the position of the entire body in space, with
speed and accuracy.
 Balance

The maintenance of equilibrium while stationary or in motion.
 Coordination

The ability to use the senses, such as sight and hearing, together with body
parts, in performing motor tasks smoothly and accurately.
 Speed

The ability to perform a movement within a short period of time.
 Power

The rate at which a person can perform work (strength over time).
 Reaction Time

The time elapsed between a stimulus and the beginning of the reaction to it.
The FITT Principle
 Frequency

The number of exercise sessions per week in an exercise program.
 Intensity

The level of exertion during exercise.
 Time

The duration of time in minutes that the proper intensity level
should be maintained to develop the maximal oxygen uptake, also
known as aerobic power.

The maximal capacity for oxygen consumption by the body during
maximal exertion.
 Type (mode)

Activities that are selected on the basis of individual functional
capacity, interests, time, availability, equipment and facilities, and
personal goals/objectives.
Define Exercise
 Exercise is not synonymous with physical activity.
Exercise is a type of physical activity that is planned,
structured, repetitive, and purposive, in the sense
that improvement or maintenance of physical fitness
is an objective.
