Warm-up Specificity A workout should include a specific type of exercise to gain the desired fitness benefit Fitness Reversibility Fitness Benefits are lost when training stops 5 -10 minutes of easy exercise to warm and stretch muscles & increase blood flow TRAINING PRINCIPLES Cool-Down 5 -10 minutes of reduced exercise to help the heart rate & breathing rate, temperature, & circulation return to normal Overload Workout must include exercise beyond what is usually done to gain additional fitness benefits Progression Amount and intensity of exercise in a workout must be increased gradually
Exercise Prescription Your Exercise Prescription ü Very similar to a medical prescription. A medical prescription will include the name of the medicine, the dose needed, and how often the medicine should be taken. ü The exercise prescription is a breakdown of how often you need to work, how hard, the length of time per session, and the type of activity or exercise performed. These factors of exercise prescription are referred to as the principles of training or FITT principles.

Physical Fitness Body’s ability to perform activity and to meet the demands of daily living while being energetic and alert. � Exercise is planned, structured and repetitive bodily movement done to improve or maintain one or more of the 5 components � 2 main kinds of exercise: ◦ Aerobic ◦ Anaerobic � Consists of 5 components of Health Related Fitness
AEROBIC EXERCISE
ANAEROBIC EXERCISE � � Anaerobic means “without air” or “without oxygen. ” Anaerobic exercise is short-lasting, high-intensity activity, where your body’s demand for oxygen exceeds the oxygen supply available. Anaerobic exercise relies on energy sources that are stored in the muscles and, unlike aerobic exercise, is not dependent on oxygen from (breathing) the air. Examples include: heavy weight-lifting, all types of sprints (running, biking, etc. ), interval training, or any rapid burst of hard exercise.
Health Related Fitness - the ability of the heart, lungs, muscles, & joints to function optimally. 5 Components of Health-Related Fitness � Cardio-Respiratory � Muscular Endurance Strength � Muscular Endurance � Flexibility � Body Composition
Cardio-Respiratory Endurance • The ability of the circulatory and respiratory systems to supply oxygen during continuous physical activity • Helps your heart and lungs function more efficiently and improved your metabolic rate
Cardio-Respiratory Endurance � Frequency ◦ 3 -5 times per week � Intensity ◦ 60 -85% of target heart rate zone � Time ◦ 20 -60 minutes per session � Type ◦ Any aerobic activity that increases heart rate
Examples of Exercises to Improve Cardio-Respiratory Endurance � Running/Pacer � Jumping Rope � Ultimate Football � Soccer � Biking � Dancing � Lance Armstrong-Tour de France ◦ http: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=FXPXHK 7 I 1 i. Q
Muscular Strength � The maximum amount of force a muscle can produce in a single effort � How much you can lift, pull, push � How much power or force can you exert � ANEROBIC EXERCISE
Muscular Strength � Frequency ◦ 2 -4 times per week � Intensity ◦ Heavier weight with less repetitions � Time ◦ 30 -60 minutes per session � Type ◦ Anaerobic activities such as weight room
Examples of Exercise to Improve Muscular Strength � Weights -Max lifting ◦ Squats ◦ Deadlift ◦ Bench Press � Push-ups � Pull-ups � World’s Strongest Man ◦ http: //www. youtube. com/watch? v =7 mq. Sqw. GJAMg
Muscular Endurance � Ability of the muscles to perform physical tasks over a period of time without becoming fatigued
Muscular Endurance � Frequency ◦ 2 -4 times per week � Intensity ◦ Light weights, numerous reps � Time ◦ 30 -60 minutes per session � Type ◦ Any activity allowing muscles to perform a physical task for a period of time
Examples of Exercise to Improve Muscular Endurance � Weights � Running/jogging � Swimming � Cycling � Pilates/Yoga � Push-up & Curl-up tests � Triathlons and Decathlons � Ironman Race ◦ http: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=WEo. Sd Rv. JQ 0 Q
Flexibility � � The ability to bend and move the joints through a full range of motion. Benefits of good flexibility: ◦ ◦ ◦ ◦ Improved Performance Decreased Injury Risk Reduced Muscle Soreness Improved Posture Reduced Risk of Low Back Pain Increased Blood and Nutrients to Tissues Improved Muscle Coordination Enhanced Enjoyment of Physical Activities
Flexibility � Frequency ◦ Daily stretching � Intensity ◦ Stretch muscles and hold beyond its normal length at a comfortable stretch � Time ◦ Hold each stretch 10 -15 seconds; stretch 15 -30 minutes daily � Type ◦ Stretching allowing full range of motion
Examples of Exercise to Improve Flexibility �Dynamic Stretching �Static Stretching �Pilates �Yoga �Gymnastics � Gabby Douglass ◦ http: //www. youtube. com/watch? v= bm. WICdhvy. Jw&feature=relmfu
Body Composition � � � Body Composition is the percentage of body fat compared to the percentage of lean muscle tissue. A body composition within the recommended range suggests you have less risk of developing obesity-related diseases such as diabetes, high blood pressure, and even some cancers. When we drop below the minimal recommended levels of essential fat, we negatively affect the delivery of vitamins to the organs, the ability of the reproductive system to function, and overall well-being.
� Body Composition can be measured in different ways: ◦ Body Mass Index (BMI) ◦ Waist to Hip Ratio (WHR) ◦ Skinfold Caliper Test
Lifetime Fitness Sports & Activities � Can be done at almost any age throughout life � Can be done at almost any fitness level � Some requires little/no equipment � Some can be low to no cost ◦ Examples: �Swimming �Running/Jogging �Walking �Cross County Skiing �Golf �Biking �Martial Arts
