5 COMPONENTS OF 5 COMPONENTS OF HEALTH-RELATED FITNESSHEALTH-RELATED FITNESS
1. Muscle strength1. Muscle strength2. Muscle endurance3. Cardiovascular endurance4. Flexibility5. Body composition
MUSCLE STRENGTHMUSCLE STRENGTH The ability of a muscle or muscle group to The ability of a muscle or muscle group to
exert a maximum force against a exert a maximum force against a resistance resistance ONE TIMEONE TIME through the full through the full range of motion. Range of motion (ROM) range of motion. Range of motion (ROM) is the degrees through which a joint can is the degrees through which a joint can move. move.
MUSCLE ENDURANCEMUSCLE ENDURANCE The ability of a muscle or muscle The ability of a muscle or muscle
group to exert a sub-maximal force group to exert a sub-maximal force REPEATEDLYREPEATEDLY over a period of time. over a period of time.
CARDIOVASCULAR CARDIOVASCULAR ENDURANCEENDURANCE
The ability to perform large muscle The ability to perform large muscle moderate to high intensity exercise for moderate to high intensity exercise for PROLONGED PERIODSPROLONGED PERIODS keeping your keeping your heart rate in the heart rate target heart rate in the heart rate target zone:zone: 220
- ageMax Heart Rate x 60% to
85%The target heart rate zone for a 17 year old is 122-173 beats per minute.
Is the ability to move a joint through Is the ability to move a joint through its complete range of motion (ROM).its complete range of motion (ROM).

BMI = Body Mass Index
It is an indirect measure of body composition
based on height and weight.

WARM-UP5-10 minutes
Gradually elevate heart rate, muscle blood flow, & body temp.

How does the FITT principle apply to How does the FITT principle apply to body composition?body composition?
Body composition results largely from physical activity levels in Body composition results largely from physical activity levels in the other components:the other components:
Cardiovascular exercise expends calories.Cardiovascular exercise expends calories. Muscle strength and endurance activities expend calories and Muscle strength and endurance activities expend calories and

TRAINING PRINCIPLES:TRAINING PRINCIPLES:OVERLOAD – you must apply stress OVERLOAD – you must apply stress
beyond what your body is accustomed beyond what your body is accustomed toto
PROGRESSION – the overload must PROGRESSION – the overload must continue after the body adapts to the continue after the body adapts to the previous stressprevious stress
SPECIFICITY - to obtain a particular SPECIFICITY - to obtain a particular goal you must train those muscles with goal you must train those muscles with a specific methoda specific method
VarietyVarietyCross-TrainingCross-Training
- reduces boredom and increases - reduces boredom and increases motivation and progress; work different motivation and progress; work different parts of the bodyparts of the body
RecoveryRecovery- hard training day should be followed - hard training day should be followed by an easier training day or a rest day for by an easier training day or a rest day for that component or muscle group to help that component or muscle group to help permit recoverypermit recovery
BalanceBalance- should include activities that address - should include activities that address all fitness components; overemphasizing all fitness components; overemphasizing any one of them may hurt the othersany one of them may hurt the others
Conclusion……….
Health related fitness is a lifetime pursuit. It is impossible to store fitness once it is developed. To develop fitness you should work on ALL 5 COMPONENTS:
muscle strengthmuscle endurancecardiovascular enduranceflexibilitybody composition
