1. M O D U L E 1 (8 SE S S I O N S )
Fitness

2. Learning Competencies:
At the end of this module, the student will be able to:
1. Define Physical fitness and the three (3) major
components that constitute it.
2. Enumerate and define the different parameters
that constitute each component
3. Relate each fitness parameter to health risks
associated with a sedentary lifestyle.

3. 4. Test themselves to know the degree to which they
possess each of these health-related fitness
parameters and identify which areas they need to
improve on.
5. Using this information, write their own fitness plan
that contains activities in the proper frequency,
intensity and duration so they may achieve their
fitness goals.

4. 6. Keep an accurate record of their fitness activities so
they can track their progress towards their fitness
goals.
7. Make a portfolio that contains their written
journals and pictures of their physical activity and
exercise habits.

5. Review: Defining Physical Fitness
Physical Fitness is “ a set of abilities that one
possesses in order to perform physical activities.
Physical Activity is any bodily movement produced
by the contraction of skeletal muscles that results in
a substantial increase in energy expenditure”

6. I can become physically fit (e.g. improve or maintain
it) through exercise.
Exercise is a type of physical activity consisting of
planned, structured and repetitive bodily movement”

7. Fitness Components
Physical fitness is made up of three major
components: (1) Health-related (2) skill-related
(3)Physiological fitness.
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 and conditions.

8. Skill-related Physical fitness (SRPF) consists of
components that have a relationship with learning
motor-skills quickly and the ability to achieve a high
level of performance in sports.

9. Physiological fitness relates to biological systems
that are influence by one’s level of habitual physical
activity.

10. Fitness Parameters:
HRF consists of cardiorespiratory endurance (CRE),
Muscular endurance, strength, flexibility and body
composition.
SRF consists of agility, balance, coordination, power,
reaction time and speed.
Physiological fitness consists of MetF, MorF and BI
(end of First day discussion)

11. Preview: Tasks that relate to the concept of
Cardiorespiratory endurance (CRE)
Finding my pulse while at rest
Participating in activities that raise my heart rate
Monitoring my heart rate during activities.

12. Finding my Pulse
Materials needed: stopwatch or a digital watch with
a second hand.
The 2 most common locations of my pulse are the :
(1)Carotid pulse (neck) and (2) Radial Pulse
(wrist).
Activity: Getting my Resting Heart Rate (RHR)

13. Application: Raising my heart rate
Exercise raises my heart rate. The intensity of my
exercise can be moderate or vigorous depending on
my heart rate.
Students look for partners and perform the
following tasks one after the other. They will help
each other in the recording of results.

14. Task Heart Rate
Jogging in Place (20 sec)
Jumping Jacks ( 20
times)
Step ups (20 sec)
Crab walk (5m)

15. Quiz
1. A set of abilities that one possesses in order to
perform physical activities.
2. Any bodily movement produced by the contraction
of skeletal muscles that results in a substantial
increase in energy expenditure.
3. How can a person become physically fit?
4. A type of physical activity consisting of planned,
structured and repetitive bodily movement.

16. 5. Physical fitness has how many major components?
6. Which component relates to good health and lower
risk of illness?
7. Which relates to learning motor skills and ability to
achieve high performance in sports?
8. Which relates to biological systems that are
influenced by one’s level of habitual P. activity.?

17. 9. What are the two most common locations of the
pulse?
