    Study Notes

    Fitness Components

    • Skill-related fitness components include reaction time, core stability exercises, and various skill components.
    • Non-communicable diseases are chronic illnesses not caused by infections.
    • Health-related fitness components include flexibility, cardiovascular endurance, muscular endurance, muscular strength, body composition, speed, power, and agility.

    FITT Principle

    • Frequency, Intensity, Time, and Type (FITT) are key principles of exercise.
    • Frequency refers to how often one exercises.
    • Intensity describes how hard an individual exercises.
    • Moderate intensity corresponds to a 5-6 on a scale of 0-10.
    • Time refers to the duration of exercise.
    • The recommended time for an effective workout is 30-45 minutes.
    • Type refers to the type of exercise or activity performed.

    Aerobic Training

    • Aerobic training improves cardiovascular endurance.
    • Exercises such as running improve cardiovascular fitness.
    • Strength training builds muscle strength and endurance.

    Movement Competency Screen (MCS)

    • The MCS involves movements like body weight squats, lunges, push-ups, bends, and single-leg squats. This assesses an individual's ability to perform different movements free of dysfunction or pain.

    Exercise and Sports

    • Exercise involves planned, structured physical activity.
    • Sports are competitive physical activities.
    • Leisure includes activities for relaxation or personal enjoyment.

    Nutrition and Health

    • Adequate nutrition is essential for good health.
    • The thermic effect of food (TEF) uses about 10% of daily caloric intake for digestion.
    • Maintaining a calorie deficit, where calories burned exceed calories consumed, helps prevent diabetes.
    • Main energy sources are carbohydrates, fats, and protein.

    Stress and Well-being

    • Excessive stress can lead to anxiety and depression.
    • Regular physical activity can improve overall health, elevate mood, improve sleep, and boost self-esteem.
    • Endorphins are natural mood boosters produced by the body.
