The document is a module on physical fitness from St. Louise de Marillac College. It discusses the importance of fitness to health and defines physical fitness. It outlines the three major components of physical fitness: health-related physical fitness including cardiorespiratory endurance, body composition, muscular endurance and flexibility; skill-related physical fitness including agility, balance, coordination, power, reaction time and speed; and physiological fitness relating to metabolic, morphological and bone integrity. It also describes three types of physical activities - aerobic, muscle-strengthening and bone-strengthening activities. Students are asked to write regular physical activities and answer questions to evaluate their understanding of the topic.

II. ENGAGE:
FITNESS is defined as good health, especially good physical condition resulting from exercise and proper nutrition.
PHYSICAL FITNESS -is a state of good health and well-being of an individual.
-is a set of abilities that one possesses in order to perform physical activities.
HOW CAN YOU BE PHYSICALLY FIT?
Through exercise. Exercise is “a type of physical activity consisting of planned, structured and repetitive bodily movement”
III. EXPLORE: 3 Major Components of Physical Fitness
1. Health-related physical fitness (HRPF) consists of those specific components that have a relationship with good health, or a lower risk of
illness, particularly hypokinetic diseases; a disease related to or cause by lack of insufficient activities or physical exercises, and conditions.
This includes:
A. Cardiorespiratory Endurance (CRE)- is a measurement of how well your heart , lungs and muscles work together to keep your body
active over an extended period of time.
i. Carotid pulse - by placing the index and middle fingers on the neck to the side of your windpipe.
ii. Radial pulse – located on the inside of the wrist near the side of your thumb.
B. Body composition – is used to describe the percentages of fat, bone water, and muscle in human bodies.
C. Muscular endurance – is the ability of a muscle to exert force against resistance.
D. Flexibility – is a range of motion in a joint or group of joints or the ability to move joints effectively through a complete range of motion.
Stretching is a form of exercise that can lead to an increase in flexibility

2. Skill-related physical fitness (SRPF) pertains to components related with learning motor skills quickly and the ability to achieve a high level
of performance in sports.
This includes:
A. Agility - the ability to change direction quickly while the body is in motion.
For example: changing directions to hit a tennis ball. (Football & Basketball)
B. Balance – the ability to keep an upright posture while standing still or moving.
For example: in-line skating & stretching.
C. Coordination – the ability to use different parts of the body together smoothly and efficiently.
For example: dribbling a basketball.
D. Power – the ability to perform one maximum effort in a short period of time as possible.
Example: volleyball players getting up to the net and lifting their bodies high into the air.
E. Reaction Time - the ability to react or respond quickly to what you hear, see, or feel.
F. Speed – the ability to perform a movement in a short period of time
3. Physiological fitness relates to biological systems that are influenced by one’s level of habitual physical activity.
This include:
i. Metabolic Fitness (Met F) – positive state of the physiological systems commonly associated with reduced risk of chronic
disease such as diabetes and heart disease.
ii. Morphological Fitness (MorF) – A non-performance component of physical fitness related to body composition factors such
as body circumferences, body fat content and regional body fat distribution.
iii. BI (Bone Integrity) – Term refers to the ability of a bone to function as component of the whole body, sustaining anticipated
loads.
“The three components of physical fitness can be directly affected by our diet (what we eat) and the amount of physical activity we do”

V. EXPLAIN: Three types of Physical Activities
1. AEROBIC– moves your large muscles, such as those in your arms and legs . Aerobic activities make your heart beat faster than
usual. Regular aerobic activity strengthens your heart and lungs.
Example: walking, running, swimming, bicycling , dancing , sports such as basketball and soccer
2. MUSCLE- STRENGTHENING activities – improves strength, power and endurance of muscles.

Example: doing push-ups, pull-ups and situps, lifting weights, climbing the stairs , digging the garden
3. BONE- STRENGTHENING activities – helps your bones grow and keeps them strong .
Example: jumping ,skipping , hopping
VI. EVALUATION:
1.– 3. Give the three Major components of Physical Fitness.
4.- 6. Three types of Physical Activity
7. A disease related to or caused by, insufficient activity and lack of regular exercise.
8. A type of physical activity consisting of planned, structured and repetitive bodily movement.
9. It is a state of good-health and well being of an individual.
10. Give at least one type of cardio respiratory endurance.
