individual, physically, socially,
emotionally and mentally
through total body movement in
the performance of properly
selected physical activities.

refers to the process of education that
concerns activities, which develop and

HUMAN BODY

Muscles
Movement- move
from place to place,
movement of body
parts, feeding and
digestion.
Stability- “stable” the strength to
stand or endure: firmness
Maintain posture
Anti-gravity muscles
Control of Opening and
Passageways:
 Sphincters- internal muscular rings that control the
movement of food, bile and blood.
Characteristics of Muscles
 Excitability – ability to respond to
stimuli
 Contractibility – ability to contract
 Extensibility
– ability to stretched
without tearing
 Elasticity
– ability to return to its
normal shape
Three Body Types

Endomorph
Mesomorph
Ectomorph

Physical Fitness
Components
 Health Related
1. Body Composition – the
relative percentage of body
fat compared with lean body
mass
 2. Muscular Strength – the amount of
force that can be produce by a single
contraction of a muscles.

 3.Muscular Endurance – the ability of


the muscle group to continue muscle
contraction over a length of time.
 4.
Flexibility – the ability to use
one’s joints fully in a normal range
motion.

 5.
Cardiovascular Endurance – the
ability of the circulatory system to
supply oxygen to working muscles
during exercise.
Skill Related

1. Speed – the ability to


perform a movement or
cover a certain distance in
a short period of time.
 2.Reaction Time – the amount of time it
takes to move once realized the need to
action.
Ex. Stick drop test

 3.Agility – the ability of the individual to


quickly shift or change direction of the
body from one point to another. Ex.
Shuttle Run
 4.
Balance – the ability to maintain
equilibrium while stationary or
moving.
 5.
Coordination – the ability to use
body parts and senses together to
produce smooth efficient
movements.
Hand and eye coordination
 6.Power – ability to release
maximum force a muscle or
muscle group can. The product of
strength and speed.
Physical fitness activities:
1km run/walk – cardiovascular endurance
Sit and reach – flexibility
Push-ups – arm strength
Curl-ups - abdominal strength
50m sprint- speed
Stork balance – balance
Card catching – coordination
Hexagon jump – agility
Standing long jump - power
 One of the pillars of strength and
conditioning is the idea of
progression. Progression refers to
the selection of exercises, loads or
resistance, order of exercise , and
readiness of the individual that are
just right (not too hard, not too
easy for the status of the athlete
and the demands of activity.
The F.I.T.T. Principle for an
Effective Workout

• FREQUENCY
• INTENSITY
• TIME
• TYPES
 Understanding the F.I.T.T. principle helps
you create a workout plan that will be more
effective in reaching your fitness
goals. F.I.T.T. stands
for frequency, intensity, time, and type of
exercise. These are the four elements you
need to think about to create workouts that
fit your goals and fitness level. Learn how
the F.I.T.T. principle works.
 Frequency
 - is simply the number of
training sessions express per
day, per week, per month and
so forth.
 Intensity – is the difficulty of
the work. Intensity is the
amount or weight or
resistance used in a particular
exercise.
 runner – intensity is
running speed
 weight lifter – intensity is
the resistance or weight lifted
 Time –

Time of the day you
exercise and how long each
session lasts
 Type –

 What exercise you are doing (e.g,


cardio, strength or combination of
two)
 High intensity – less time fewer
days
 Low intensity – each session
may be long ,more days
 Volume – is the amount of work
performed. Sets and repetitions of
an exercise combine to make
volume.
 (if you are a runner , volume is
the distance you covered. If you
are strength training, volume is the
product of sets x repetition of an
exercise.
 Volume-load
 - is the combination of volume
and intensity. Volume-load is
usually calculated as sets x
repetitions x weight or resistance
used

God bless!!
