+Maximum Heart Rate-The Maximum heart rate that a person should achieve during maximum physical exertion. 220- Age = Maximum heart rate.
*Fitness– A general state of good health, especially as a result of exercise and proper nutrition. Mental and emotional health is an important part of over all fitness, though your body may be physically fit, if you are not balanced in your mind and emotions you do not possess overall fitness.
**Target Heart Rate-Desired range of heart rate reached during aerobic exercise, which enables ones heart and lungs to receive the most benefit from a work out .65%-85% of max heart rate.
*Heart Rate-Number of contractions (heart beats) of the heart in one minute or expressed as “beats per minute (bpm)
+Aerobic-A form of exercise that increase the need for oxygen
+Strength-The ability of a person to apply force on an object
+Endurance-The ability of a person to apply force for a long period of time
**Cardio respiratory- How the body delivers oxygen and nutrients needed for physical activity, and transports waste products from the cells.
**Regularity– To achieve a training effect, you must exercise often. You should exercise each of the first four fitness components at least three times a week. Infrequent exercise can do more harm than good. Regularity is also important in resting, sleeping, and following a sensible diet.
**Progression– The intensity (how hard) and/or duration (how long) of exercise must gradually increase to improve the level of fitness.
+Balance– To be effective, a program should include activities that address all the fitness components, since overemphasizing any one of them may hurt the others.
**Variety– Providing a variety of activities reduces boredom and increases motivation and progress.
**Specificity– Training must be geared toward specific goals. For example, people become better runners if their training emphasizes running. Although swimming is great exercise, it does not improve a 2-mile-run time as much as a running program does.
**Recovery– A hard day of training for a given component of fitness should be followed by an easier training day or rest day for that component and/or muscle group(s) to help permit recovery. Another way to allow recovery is to alternate the muscle groups exercised every other day, especially when training for strength and/or muscle endurance.
**Overload– The workload of each exercise session must exceed the normal demands placed on the body in order to bring about a training effect.
+Body Composition– The % of the body weight that is fat compared to lean muscle, bones, and fluid.
*Frequency– How often you exercising
*Intensity– How hard you exercise
*Time– How long you exercise
*Type– What kind of exercise are you doing.
+Basic Fitness Components– How exercises are grouped into different categories.
*Cardiovascular-Refers to the function of the heart, arteries, and veins
*Muscular– Effecting the muscles
*Flexibility– Capable of bending or stretching without breaking
+Agility – The ability to change directions quickly and easily
*Warm Up– A period or act of preparation for an exercise session
*Cool Down- A period or act of recovery from an exercise session
+Anaerobic-Activity done in short, fast bursts in which the heart cannot supply blood and oxygen as fast as muscles use it.
+Interval-Periods of exercise followed by periods of rest.
** Metabolism-The amount of energy required to maintain the body of an individual in a resting state.
**Body Mass Index-Ratio that allows you to assess your body size in relation to your height and weight.
* = grade 6, + = grade 7, ** = grade 8- PLUS THE 6TH AND 7TH GRADE WORDS.
