  • Physical fitness is the ability of the body’s systems to function efficiently and effectively.
  • Physical fitness is the ability of the body’s systems to function efficiently and effectively. Individuals who are physically fit have the ability to “carry out daily tasks with vigor and alertness, without undue fatigue, and with ample energy to enjoy leisure-time pursuits and to meet unforeseen emergencies.
  • Principle of Overload states that increased demand or workload must be placed on the body for benefits to occur.
  • Principle of Progression states that without regular exercise, the body will not be able to maintain its fitness levels.
  • Principle of Specificity states that all aspects of training are tailored to the needs and demands of the activity for which the individual is preparing.
  • Cardiorespiratory fitness can be improved by engaging in physical activity of the appropriate intensity, duration, frequency, and type.
  • Cardiorespiratory Endurance Training fitness can be improved and maintained with a well-planned exercise program.
  • Power (Force x Distance) Time is the product of strength and movement speed.
  • Muscular strength and endurance can be trained through specific programs that emphasize low number of repetitions with heavy resistance or high number of repetitions with low resistance.
  • F.I.T.T. principles include frequency, intensity, time, and type.
  • Balance training can benefit anyone because it helps stabilize core muscles.
  • Activities like tai chi can also help with balance.
  • Flexibility Training can be improved and maintained through a program that incorporates specific exercises for each of the body's major joints.
  • Power Training include throwing a baseball, kicking a soccer ball, sprinting, and jumping.
  • Power Training is the rate at which work is completed and is a measurement of how much energy is created per second, the size of the force applied, and the velocity at which it is applied.
  • Balance exercises can aid in the prevention of falls and the maintenance of independence in older adults.
  • Balance Training can aid in the prevention of falls and the
    maintenance of independence in older adults. It can benefit anyone because it helps stabilize your core muscles. To improve your overall
    stability, try standing on one leg for longer and longer periods of time.
  • What are the five elements fitness routine?
    flexibility, strength, endurance, balance, and power.

    o Increases range of motion
    o Reduces the pain and swelling of arthritis
  • BONES
    o Improve or Increases bone density
    o Strengthens bones
    o Decreases risk of osteoporosis
  • LUNGS
    o Improves cardiorespiratory capacity
    o Improves ability to extract oxygen from the air
  • HEART
    o Decreases risk of heart disease, including stroke and high blood
    pressure
    o Strengthens the heart
    o Increases volume of blood pumped to the body
    o Lowers resting heart rate
  • ARTERIES
    o Increases levels of good cholesterol (HDL)
    o Decreases resting blood pressure
    o Improves circulation
  • BLOOD
    o Improved blood volume throughout the body and better distribution
    of blood to the needed body parts.
  • PANCREAS
    o Reduces risk of type 2 diabetes
  • COLON
    o Decreases risk of colon cancer
  • SUBCUTANEOUS FAT TISSUES
    o Decreases body fat stores
    o Normalizes body mass to prevent obesity
  • MUSCLES
    o Increases muscle strength and tone
    o Improves energy production and extraction of
    oxygen by muscle cells
    o Improves muscle endurance and coordination
    o Increased size of muscle fibers which help
    muscle exert more force
  • BRAIN
    o Reduces stress and improve mood
    o Reduces risk of depression
    o Decreases anxiety
    o Improves concentration
    o Increases oxygen and nutrients to the brain
    o Improves mental health and stress
    management
  • Muscular Strength & Endurance Training a strength-training program, in general, emphasizes a low number of repetitions with heavy resistance, whereas an endurance-training program involves
    performing a high number of repetitions with low resistance.
  • Frequency – how often the exercise (the number of exercise sessions per week – for example, 3 to 5 times per week)
  • Intensity – how hard the activity or exercise (the degree of effort or exertion put forth by the individual during exercise)
  • Time –the duration or how long the exercise will take (the length of the activity)
  • Type –the kind of activity or exercise
  • Principle of Regression is simply a method of reducing the demand for exercise or movement. All exercise-related gains will be lost if the exercise is not continued. Without regular exercise, the body will not be able to maintain its fitness levels.
  • Principle of Individuality individuals respond differently to exercise. Individuals will differ in their rate of improvement and their potential levels of achievement. Age,
    maturation, motivation, nutrition, and initial level of fitness also influence an individual’s response to training.
  • Principle of Recovery the body needs time to adapt to the demands placed on it. Incorporating time for rest into the fitness program aids the body in this effort. Many individuals integrate recovery into their training by alternating the types of activities performed or by varying the muscle groups being trained.
