Why Teach Physical Activity and
Nutrition?

The Brain and Physical Activity
“Evidence is mounting that each person’s
capacity to master new and remember old
information is improved by biological changes
in the brain brought on by physical activity.”
Dr. John Ratey

Despite the proven benefits of
healthy eating and physical
activity …
• More than 50% of American adults do not get enough physical
activity to provide health benefits
• 25% of adults are not active at all in their leisure time
• One-third of students in grades 9-12 do not regularly engage in
vigorous physical activity
• Daily participation in high school physical education classes
dropped from 42% in 1991 to 33% in 2005
Obesity Trends in the
United States
• The childhood obesity rate has doubled for preschool children over the past 30 years
• The obesity rate has more than tripled for 6-11 year

• At present, approximately 9 million children over the
age of 6 are considered obese

Muscular Strength
Activities
• Do these activities a minimum of 2 days per
week
• Do strengthening activities on nonconsecutive
days
• Use resistance or weight to maximize
strength development
The Benefits of Muscular
Strength
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Reduces the risk of injury
Improves posture
Improves physical performance
Improves body composition
Slows bone loss as we age
Increases bone formation in young adults
Inverse relation between risk of all-cause
mortality
Muscle Tag
Objective: To learn the major muscle names and their location on
the body.
Upper Body Muscles
Deltoid
Latissimus Dorsi
Pectoralis
Abdominals
Obliques
Biceps
Trapezius
Lower Body Muscles

Aerobic vs. Anaerobic
• Aerobic Exercise: The body uses oxygen to
create energy.
• The oxygen is needed to break down glucose.
• Glucose is the fuel needed to create energy.
• Examples: running, brisk walking, jogging, swimming
• Anaerobic Exercise: The body creates the energy
without oxygen.
• Examples: weight lifting, sprinting, any exercise with
resistance

• Leg Extension: Extend your leg out in front of you, flex the
foot, lift the leg, then lower it slowly.
• Writing the Alphabet: Lift the leg out parallel to the floor.
Use proper directionality, top to bottom, and left to right, then
