PE 9 (PHYSICAL EDUCATION / FITNESS) 1ST QTR

physical education

it is an art (perform and showcase talents through movements) and a science (functions of different parts of the body), a way or process of learning through physical activities such as sports, games and exercise

games

events played with rules set by the players

sports

events played with set of rules and run by officials

individual sports

are events played with specific target

dual sports

are events played with opposite opponent with a minimum of 1 and a maximum of 3 players each side

team sports

are events played with minimum of 5 and a maximum of 12 per team inside the playing area

physical fitness

it is a capability that should be treated with extreme care for one to lead a normal life, the capacity of each individual to accomplish daily tasks with alertness and vigor

3 things to consider before an activity

heart capabilities, know your limits by means of PMHR and THR, know your fitness goal with FITT priniciples

heart

made up of cardiovascular muscles that get strong through exercise

fitness goal

a goal to improve physical fitness level

FITT program

designed to incorporate the principles of physical activity into a personal fitness plan, an acronym that stands for frequency, intensity, time and type

health related components

cardiovascular endurance, muscular endurance, muscular strength, flexibility, body composition

body composition

relationship between fat tissue and lean body tissue such as muscle, bone, blood, skin, and organs

ectomorph

below the average weight for their height and have a skinny appearance

mesomorph

has a larger frame (bone structure) as the endomorph does, but a low body fat percentage as the ectomorph has

endomorph

individual will usually be larger in appearance with heavier fat accumulation and little muscle definition

cardiovascular respiratory endurance

ability of the heart, blood vessels, and the lungs to deliver essential oxygen to the working muscles and to remove waste materials from the body

flexibility

ability of the joints to move throughout the full range of motion

ball and socket joint

a ball moves within a socket so as to allow rotary motion in every direction within certain limits

hinge joint

a bone joint in which the articular surfaces are molded to each other in such a manner as to permit motion only in one plane

muscular endurance

the ability of a muscle or muscle group to exert repeated muscular contractions against a resistance for an extended period of time

isotonic contraction

when muscles change length during a contraction

isometric contraction

when muscles do not change length during a contraction

strength

ability of a muscle or muscle group to exert one maximal force against a resistance

dynamic strength

the component found in repeated muscle contraction

explosive strength

is apparent in those activities requiring movement, speed, and sudden changes in direction

static strength

requires little muscle shortening and is necessary in overcoming a heavy resistance

skill related components

agility, balance, coordination, power, reaction time, speed

agility

the ability to change position or direction with quickness and lightness of movement

balance

the ability to control organic equipment neuromuscular; it is a state of equilibrium

dynamic balance

maintaining balance while moving or engaging in action

rotational balance

the ability to maintain or regain balance after turning, rolling, or other maneuvers while in contact with the floor or apparatus

static balance

the ability to maintain equilibrium in a fixed position

coordination

refers to the harmonious functioning of muscles in producing complex movements

power

the ability to release maximum force in a shortest possible time

speed

ability to move quickly from one point to another in a shortest possible time

reaction time

refers to the interval of time between the signal to respond and the beginning of the response
