5 Components of Health-Related Fitness

CARDIOVASCULAR ENDURANCE

  • Endurance - Ability to exercise continuously for extended periods without tiring.

  • Aerobic Fitness Level - Dependent upon the amount of oxygen transported to the working muscles while efficiently using it.

MUSCULAR STRENGTH

  • How much weight can be lifted one time.

  • Power lifting is usually how people build their overall muscular strength.

4 BASIC MOVEMENT OF MUSCLE

  • Flexion - bending a body segment.

  • How long you can lift the weight over time.

  • bench jump, Modified dip (men), Modified push up (women), abdominal crunch, Abdominal curl-up.

3 TYPES OF MUSCULAR CONTRACTION

  1. ISOTONIC - Muscle Contraction in which the muscle changes length either shortening (concentrically) or lengthening (eccentrically).

  2. ISOMETRIC - Same length, Changing tension. No movement while a force is exerted against an immovable object (changing tension).

  3. ISOKINETIC - Constant speed, different effort. Done with a machine that regulates the velocity or speed of the movement and resistance.

FLEXIBILITY

  • Range of motion that is possible around a joint or joints.
