muscular strength - ANSWER ->is defined as the
maximum force that can be exerted by a muscle or
muscle group against a resistance.
Golgi tendon organ - ANSWER ->This proprietorial is
found in the tendons of your muscle and measure
muscle tension.
6 components to fitness skills - ANSWER ->balance,
coordination, speed, power, agility, reaction time
What is the difference between maximal heart rate
and heart rate reserve? - ANSWER ->Max HR-the
,highest HR a person can achieve and is measured

water? - ANSWER ->The water compresses all body
systems, including the vascular system, causing a
smaller venous load to the heart, reducing HR.
