Today we will look at how
to improve your
Physical Fitness
through Health-related
fitness activities.
5 Kinds of Exercise:
repetitive movement done to improve
fitness
1. Aerobic – uses large amounts of Oxygen
(ie…long-distance running, swimming cycling…)
improves cardiorespiratory endurance
2. Anaerobic – spurts of energy, need more
O2 than what is available
(ie…football, basketball, tennis…)
Improves cardio & muscular strength,
endurance & flexibility
3. Isometric – Muscles are
working/tightened but no
movement.
4. Isotonic - movement is
required to work muscles.
5. Isokinetic – working muscles
by using machines that
provide resistance.
The FITT Formula
F – Frequency – how often (7
days a week
I – Intensity – how hard (pulse
22-28 beats in a 10 sec. Count)
T – Time – how long (at least 60
mins everyday)
T – Type – what kind of exercise
(isometric, isotonic, isokinetic, aerobic,
anaerobic)
How can we measure
our Fitness?
• Cardiorespiratory Endurance
• Strength & Muscular Endurance
• Flexibility
• Healthful Body Composition
The following slides will talk about
each of these…
Cardiorespiratory
Endurance
• The ability of your heart &
lungs to supply oxygen to
the muscles and sustain them
through the physical activity.
• 10 benefits-page 360-361
Strength & Muscular Endurance
benefits on page 362
• Strength – the maximum
amount of force your
muscles can produce.
• Endurance – the length
of time your muscles can
continue to perform
before getting tired.
Flexibility
• The ability to bend &
move the joints through
the full range of motion.
• Benefits on page 364
• Watch movie clip on
next slide – Kinds of
Exercises
Healthful Body Composition
• High ratio of lean
tissue to fat tissue in
the body.
