◉ What are the five primary components of fitness? Answer: 1)
Cardiorespiratory endurance
2) Muscular Strength
3) Muscular Endurance
4) Flexibility
5) Body Composition
◉ Cardiorespiratory endurance. Answer: The capacity of the
cardiovascular and respiratory systems to deliver oxygen to the working
muscles for sustained periods of energy production
◉ Muscular Strength. Answer: The maximum force that can be exerted
by a muscle or muscle group against a resistance
◉ Muscular Endurance. Answer: The capacity of a muscle to exert force
repeatedly or to hold a fixed or static contraction over time
◉ Flexibility. Answer: The ability of limbs to move at the joints through
a normal range of motion
, ◉ Body composition. Answer: The body's relative percentage of fat as
compared to lean tissue (bones, muscle, and organs)
◉ What are the six skill-related components of fitness? Answer: 1)
Balance
2) Coordination
3) Speed
4) Power
5) Agility
6) Reaction Time
◉ Balance. Answer: Controlling the position of the body's center of
gravity, or maintenance of equilibrium while stationary (static balance)
or moving (dynamic balance).
◉ Coordination. Answer: The integration of many separate motor skills
or movements into one efficient pattern
◉ Speed. Answer: The rate at which a movement or activity can be
performed
◉ Power. Answer: A function of strength and speed. The ability to
transfer energy into force at a quick rate.
