Study Notes

Fitness Components

  • Organic Vigor: Influences the cardiovascular and respiratory efficiency, enhancing disease resistance.
  • Cardiorespiratory Endurance: Essential for sustaining activities using large muscle groups over extended durations through effective oxygen transportation by the lungs and heart.
  • Muscular Endurance: Involves the muscle's capability to perform repeated submaximal forces or maintain contractions over time.
  • Muscular Strength: Defined as the maximum force exerted in a single effort against resistance.
  • Flexibility: Relates to a joint's functional capacity, allowing movement through a full range of motion.
  • Speed: The individual's ability to execute consecutive movements rapidly.
  • Agility: Refers to the capability to swiftly change position in space and the quickness of overall movement.
  • Power: Relates to muscular power, indicating the ability to exert maximum force in the shortest time.
  • Balance: The ability to maintain equilibrium and control body position through neuromuscular coordination.
  • Coordination: The skill of integrating sensory information with body movements for smooth and precise task execution.

Warm-Up Types

  • General Warm-Up: Aims to elevate overall body temperature, increase heart rate, and boost blood flow to muscles.
  • Dynamic Warm-Up: Prepares muscles and joints for workout-specific movements through active mimicry of the intended activities.
  • Sport-Specific Warm-Up: Tailors the body's preparation to meet the unique demands of a particular sport or activity.
  • Stretching as a Warm-Up: Focuses on enhancing flexibility and range of motion, often combined with dynamic movements for effectiveness.
  • Mobility Drills: Enhances joint flexibility and range of motion, particularly beneficial before weightlifting or high-intensity sports.
