Body Composition
- Refers to the percentage of fat and lean mass in the body
- Healthy body composition features low body fat and high fat-free mass
Cardio Exercise
- Involves large muscle groups, synchronizing arms and legs
- Requires medium to high intensity; can be sustained over long durations
- Also referred to as aerobic exercise
Cardio Circuit Training
- Involves a training routine with multiple exercise stations completed in one workout
Cardio Cross Training
- Incorporates various types of cardio exercises within the same workout or week
Cardiovascular Endurance
- Ability to sustain medium to high-intensity cardio activities (e.g., running, cycling)
- Also known as cardiovascular fitness
Exercise, Physical Activity, and Physical Fitness
- Exercise: activity aimed at improving physical fitness components
- Physical Activity: any muscle-contraction activity, including daily chores
- Physical Fitness: comprised of six components affecting exercise and sports performance
Flexibility and Intensity
- Flexibility: capacity for normal range of motion in movement
- Intensity: level of difficulty in exercising or performing physical activities
Intermediate Slow Training
- Continuous cardio exercise performed steadily for 20-60 minutes
Interval Training
- Alternates between higher-intensity and lower-intensity exercise within a single workout
Long Slow Distance (LSD) Training
- Continuous cardio training done for 60 minutes or more at a steady pace
Muscle Endurance and Muscle Strength
- Muscle Endurance: ability to repeatedly contract a muscle without fatigue
- Muscle Strength: maximum force a muscle can exert during one contraction
Motor Skills

- Set: a series of consecutive repetitions, typically 8-12
Slow-Dynamic and Slow-Static Stretches
- Slow-Dynamic: involves gentle back-and-forth motion for 15-30 seconds
- Slow-Static: holding a position of tightness for 15-30 seconds
