Physical Activity for Fitness
• Physical fitness refers to attributes that are
either health or performance related.
• Health-related attributes are cardiorespiratory
fitness, muscular strength, muscular endurance,
flexibility, and body composition.
• Aerobic capacity (or power) refers to the volume
of oxygen the muscles consume during exercise.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Components of Physical Fitness
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Physical Activity for Performance
• Athletes engage in specific exercises to increase
their speed, power, agility, coordination, and
other performance-related attributes.
• Recreational exercisers may use interval training
to improve their fitness, but performance training
is safest for individuals who are already highly
fit.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Committing to Physical Fitness
• The first step in starting a physical fitness
program is to identify your goals.
• Then you should consider the obstacles that
might get in the way of achieving those goals.
• Once you consider these factors, you are ready
to create your individual exercise program.

Incorporating Fitness into Your Life
• Choose activities that are appropriate for you,
that you like doing, and that are convenient.
• Choose activities that are suitable for your
current fitness level. Start slowly, and then
challenge yourself as your physical fitness
improves.
• Try to make exercise a part of your routine by
incorporating it into something you already do,
such as getting to class or work.

Identifying Your Physical Fitness Goals
• Do you want to be more physically active and
more physically fit?
• Are you hoping to improve your health and
reduce your risk of chronic disease?
• Are you hoping to become better at sports?
• Do you want to feel better about your body?
• Do you want to manage stress better?
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Creating Your Own Fitness Program:
The FITT Principle
• FREQUENCY – the number of times you
engage in the activity per week
• INTENSITY – how hard your workout must be to
achieve the desired results
• TIME – how many minutes or repetitions of an
exercise are required to attain the desired
fitness level
• TYPE – what kind of exercise should be done
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
The FITT Principle Applied to
Cardiorespiratory Fitness, Muscular
Strength and Endurance, and Flexibility
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
The FITT Principle for Cardiorespiratory
Fitness
• To improve cardiovascular fitness, you must exercise
vigorously 3 to 5 days a week.
• Intensity can be determined by target heart rate,
perceived exertion rate, or the talk test. Intensity should
be between 64 and 95 percent of your maximum heart
rate.
• Exercise should last at least 20 minutes for vigorous
activity and 30 minutes for moderate activity.
• The type of exercise can include any sort of rhythmic,
continuous, or vigorous physical activity that improves
cardiorespiratory fitness.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Target Heart Rate Ranges
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Taking a Pulse
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
The FITT Principle for Muscular Strength
and Endurance
• Performing eight to ten exercises that train major muscle
groups 2 to 3 days each week is recommended.
• Intensity is determined by resistance loads that are
greater than 60 percent of 1 repetition maximum (1 RM),
and endurance requires using loads less than 60
percent.
• Time is based on the number of sets and repetitions
within a set.
• Type can involve using your own body weight or devices
that provide a fixed, variable, or accommodating load or
resistance.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
The FITT Principle for Flexibility
• Flexibility exercises should be performed 2 to 3 days
each week at a minimum.
• Intensity requires that the stretch is held without
movement to the point of mild tension.
• Stretches should be held for 10 to 30 seconds and
repeated two to four times in close succession.
• The safest types of exercises for improving flexibility
involve static stretching.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Stretching Exercises to Improve Flexibility
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Implementing Your Fitness Program:
Develop a Progressive Plan
• As fitness improves, adjustments must be made
to the frequency, intensity, time, and type of
exercise.
• In addition, reevaluate your overall fitness goals
and action plan monthly.
• Do not put your greatest effort into getting
started and then allow your effort to dwindle
once you are in the action phase.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Design Your Exercise Session
• A warm-up generally involves large body
movements followed by light stretching of the
muscle groups to be used. It usually lasts about
5 to 15 minutes.
• Cardiorespiratory and/or resistance training is
the next stage of your workout. This stage
should last 20 to 30 minutes.
• A cool-down generally includes 5 to 10 minutes
of moderate- to low-intensity movement followed
by 10 minutes of stretching exercises.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Explore Fitness Activities
• Yoga, tai chi, and Pilates have the potential to
improve muscular strength and endurance,
particularly to core strength, flexibility, balance,
coordination, and agility.
• Some people view these activities as strongly
connected to the development of their spiritual
health.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Your core muscles are
essential for supporting your
spine in everything you do—
from standing to sitting; from
dancing to playing basketball.
Why Is Core Strength Training Important?
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Yoga
• Yoga focuses attention on controlled breathing
as well as physical exercises; it also
incorporates a complex array of static stretching
exercises.
• Some forms are more meditative; other forms
are more athletic.
• Hot yoga, or Bikram yoga, is performed in rooms
heated to 105 degrees.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Tai Chi
• Tai chi combines stretching, balance, muscular
endurance, coordination, and meditation.
• It is based on Qigong, a Taoist philosophy
dedicated to spiritual growth and good health.
• Tai chi is a series of positions called forms,
which are performed continuously.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Tai chi and other styles of exercise that
strengthen core body muscles can also
enhance flexibility and help lower stress
levels.
Tai Chi
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Pilates
• Pilates was developed in 1926 by Joseph
Pilates. This exercise form combines stretching
with movement against resistance, frequently
aided by tension springs or heavy rubber bands.
• It improves flexibility, coordination, core strength,
muscle tone, and economy of motion.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Taking in Proper Nutrition for Exercise
• Eat enough carbohydrates and consume larger
meals at least 3 to 4 hours before you begin
exercising.
• Follow the recommendations in the MyPlate
Plan for best results.
• Staying hydrated is also crucial for active
individuals in order to maintain a healthy, fully
functional body.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
The American College of Sports Medicine
and the National Athletic Trainers'
Association recommend consuming
14 to 22 ounces of fluid several hours
prior to exercise and about 6 to 12 ounces
per 15 to 20 minutes during—assuming
you are sweating.
How Much Do I Need to Drink?

Preventing and Treating Common Exercise
Injuries
• Traumatic injuries occur suddenly, are violent,
and typically occur by accident. They include
broken bones, torn ligaments and muscles,
contusions, and lacerations.
• Some are unavoidable, like spraining an ankle,
while others can be prevented through proper
training, appropriate equipment and clothing, as
well as common sense.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Common Overuse Injuries
• Plantar fasciitis
• Shin splints
• Runner's knee
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Preventing Injuries
• Choose appropriate footwear.
• Use appropriate protective equipment.
• Be aware of the dangers
of exercising in hot or
humid weather: heat
cramps, heat exhaustion,
and heatstroke.
• Cold or windy weather
can lead to hypothermia,
which can be fatal.
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Treatment of Fitness-Related Injuries
• RICE stands for
– Rest
– Ice
– Compression
– Elevation
© 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
Assessing Yourself–A Personal Inventory
• Go online to the Live It! section of
www.pearsonhighered.com/donatelle to take the "How
Physically Fit Are You?" assessment.
• Rate your personal fitness level using the numbers 1, 2,
4, and 5, where 1 represents being unfit and 5
represents being very fit.
• If you are unfit, rate your motivational level for becoming
fit, using the same scale, where 1 is not motivated and 5
represents being ready to start.
• If you are very fit, rate your ability to complete a triathlon,
where 1 is being unable to complete it and 5 represents
completion.

Components of Physical Fitness © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Physical Activity for Performance • Athletes engage in specific exercises to increase their speed, power, agility, coordination, and other performance-related attributes. • Recreational exercisers may use interval training to improve their fitness, but performance training is safest for individuals who are already highly fit.
  • 7. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Committing to Physical Fitness • The first step in starting a physical fitness program is to identify your goals. • Then you should consider the obstacles that might get in the way of achieving those goals. • Once you consider these factors, you are ready to create your individual exercise program. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

  • 10. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. The FITT Principle Applied to Cardiorespiratory Fitness, Muscular Strength and Endurance, and Flexibility © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. The FITT Principle for Cardiorespiratory Fitness • To improve cardiovascular fitness, you must exercise vigorously 3 to 5 days a week. • Intensity can be determined by target heart rate, perceived exertion rate, or the talk test. Intensity should be between 64 and 95 percent of your maximum heart rate. • Exercise should last at least 20 minutes for vigorous activity and 30 minutes for moderate activity. • The type of exercise can include any sort of rhythmic, continuous, or vigorous physical activity that improves cardiorespiratory fitness.
  • 11. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Target Heart Rate Ranges © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Taking a Pulse © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. The FITT Principle for Muscular Strength and Endurance • Performing eight to ten exercises that train major muscle groups 2 to 3 days each week is recommended. • Intensity is determined by resistance loads that are greater than 60 percent of 1 repetition maximum (1 RM), and endurance requires using loads less than 60 percent. • Time is based on the number of sets and repetitions within a set. • Type can involve using your own body weight or devices that provide a fixed, variable, or accommodating load or
  • 12. resistance. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. The FITT Principle for Flexibility • Flexibility exercises should be performed 2 to 3 days each week at a minimum. • Intensity requires that the stretch is held without movement to the point of mild tension. • Stretches should be held for 10 to 30 seconds and repeated two to four times in close succession. • The safest types of exercises for improving flexibility involve static stretching. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Stretching Exercises to Improve Flexibility
  • 13. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Implementing Your Fitness Program: Develop a Progressive Plan • As fitness improves, adjustments must be made to the frequency, intensity, time, and type of exercise. • In addition, reevaluate your overall fitness goals and action plan monthly. • Do not put your greatest effort into getting started and then allow your effort to dwindle once you are in the action phase. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Design Your Exercise Session • A warm-up generally involves large body movements followed by light stretching of the muscle groups to be used. It usually lasts about
  • 14. 5 to 15 minutes. • Cardiorespiratory and/or resistance training is the next stage of your workout. This stage should last 20 to 30 minutes. • A cool-down generally includes 5 to 10 minutes of moderate- to low-intensity movement followed by 10 minutes of stretching exercises. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Explore Fitness Activities • Yoga, tai chi, and Pilates have the potential to improve muscular strength and endurance, particularly to core strength, flexibility, balance, coordination, and agility. • Some people view these activities as strongly connected to the development of their spiritual health. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 15. Your core muscles are essential for supporting your spine in everything you do— from standing to sitting; from dancing to playing basketball. Why Is Core Strength Training Important? © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Yoga • Yoga focuses attention on controlled breathing as well as physical exercises; it also incorporates a complex array of static stretching exercises. • Some forms are more meditative; other forms are more athletic. • Hot yoga, or Bikram yoga, is performed in rooms heated to 105 degrees.
  • 16. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Tai Chi • Tai chi combines stretching, balance, muscular endurance, coordination, and meditation. • It is based on Qigong, a Taoist philosophy dedicated to spiritual growth and good health. • Tai chi is a series of positions called forms, which are performed continuously. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Tai chi and other styles of exercise that strengthen core body muscles can also enhance flexibility and help lower stress levels. Tai Chi
  • 17. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Pilates • Pilates was developed in 1926 by Joseph Pilates. This exercise form combines stretching with movement against resistance, frequently aided by tension springs or heavy rubber bands. • It improves flexibility, coordination, core strength, muscle tone, and economy of motion. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc. Taking in Proper Nutrition for Exercise • Eat enough carbohydrates and consume larger meals at least 3 to 4 hours before you begin exercising. • Follow the recommendations in the MyPlate Plan for best results.
  • 18. • Staying hydrated is also crucial for active individuals in order to maintain a healthy, fully functional body. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.
