The Definitions
Agility
The ability to change the position of the body quickly and to control the movement of the whole body easily.
Balance
The ability to retain the centre of mass (gravity) of the body above the base of support.
Body Composition
The proportion of body weight that is fat, muscle and bone, normally measured as a percentage.
Cardiovascular Fitness
The ability to exercise the entire body for long periods of time. This is dependent on the fitness of the heart, blood and blood vessels.
Co-Ordination
The ability to perform complex moves using two or more body parts together.
Endurance
The ability to keep working over a period of time without tiring or losing skill.
Fitness
The ability to meet the demands of the environment.
Flexibility
The joint’s ability to move to their full range.
Health
A state of complete social, mental and physical well-being.
Muscular Endurance
The ability to use voluntary muscles over long periods of time without getting tired.
Muscular Strength
The amount of force a muscle can exert against a resistance in one attempt.
Posture
The way the muscles hold the body when still or in motion.
Power
The ability to complete strength performance quickly. Power = strength x speed
Reaction Time
The time between the presentation of a stimulus and the onset of the movement.
Somatotype
Particular body type and shape of an individual.Three types are: ectomorph (tall and skinny),
mesomorph (well built and muscle) endomorph (round and fatter)
Speed
The rate at which an individual is able to perform a movement or cover a distance in a period of time.
