mental capacities |
|
emotional health |
ability to express your feelings appropriately under many different situations that occur in our everyday lives |
|

|
environmental health |
Impact of physical environment on human health |
|
quality of life |
subjective measure that reflects our levels of fulfillment, satisfaction, happiness and feeling good about ourselves despite any limitations we might have |
|
physical activity |
any bodily movement produced by the contraction of skeletal muscle that increases energy expenditure above a basal or resting level |
|
exercise |
subset of physical activity that is planned, structured, repetitive and purposeful, and a purposeful attempt to improve or maintain physical fitness, physical performance or health |
|
physical fitness |
a set of attributes that a person has or achieves, and relates to the person's ability or capacity to perform specific types of physical activity efficiently and effectively |
|
Accelerometer |
sensors monitor quantity and intensity of movement |
|
Cardio-Respiratory Endurance |
the ability of circulatory and respiratory systems to supply oxygen and fuel to the body during sustained physical activity |
|
muscular strength |
amount of force a muscle can exert during a single, maximal effort |
|
muscular endurance |
ability of a muscle to exert repeated force against a resistance, or to sustain a muscular contraction for a period of time |
|
flexibility |
the ability to move your joint through its complete range of motion |
|
body composition |
the ratio of body fat to fat-free mass |
|
agility |
the ability to quickly and accurately change the direction of the movement of the entire body in space |
|
balance |
the ability to maintain equilibrium while moving or stationary |
|
coordination |
using multiple senses to perform activities smoothly and efficiently |
|
power |
the application of both speed and strength to produce a muscular movementmoving a moderate amount of weight very quickly through an athletic movement |
|
reaction time |
how quickly can someone react to a stimulus |
|
overload |
principle of training, stressing the body beyond its normal load or intensity |
|
progression |
principle of training, allowing your body to have a chance to adapt to these new stimuli that you're presenting in the form of exercise or physical activity |
|
FITT formula |
Frequency - how often Intensity - how hard Time - how long Type - what kind |
|
specificity |
principle of training, the idea that fitness gains are specific to the type of activity performed |
|
reversibility |
principle of training, if one stops being active for an extended period of time, your body de-conditions and reverts back to pre-training condition |
|
recovery |
principle of training, the harder and the longer you exercise the more rest that particular body system needs. |
|
individual differences |
principle of training, we all vary in differences to develop fitness components |
|
cardiovascular system |
your heart and all the blood vessels and veins |
|
Cardiorespiratory fitness |
heart can pump oxygen and deliver that oxygen to their working muscles more efficiently |
|
aerobic |
steady supply of oxygen to the muscles |
|
anaerobic |
the energy system that does not require additional oxygen to be taken in by the muscles to move the body |
