Study Notes
Muscular Fitness
- Muscular fitness consists of muscular strength, muscular endurance, and power.
- Muscular strength is the ability of the muscle to exert force for a short period of time.
- Muscular endurance is the ability of the muscle to exert force for a longer period.
- Power is the ability of the muscle to exert force quickly.
Measuring Muscular Endurance
- Muscular endurance can be measured by the number of repetitions of an exercise that can be performed.
- Isometric endurance is measured by the length of time a muscle can sustain a contraction.
Muscle Structure
- The structure that covers the muscle fibers and holds them together is the epimysium.
Benefits of Physical Activity
- Engaging in physical activities can improve overall health by reducing the risk of chronic diseases and improving mental health.
Strength Training
- The term used to refer to exercises that aim to improve muscular strength and increase muscle mass is resistance training.
- The primary purpose of muscle and bone strengthening exercises is to improve muscular strength and bone density.
- Deliberately overloading the muscles is the primary purpose of strength training to improve muscular strength.
- In addition to muscular strength, muscular endurance can also be developed through strength training.
- Examples of strength training exercises include weightlifting, push-ups, and squats, but not yoga.
- The principle of overload is related to strength training, where muscles are overloaded to improve strength.
Bone Strength
- The primary focus of engaging in muscle and bone strengthening exercises is to improve bone strength.
- Examples of good exercises or activities to develop bone strength include weightlifting, jumping, and running, but not swimming.
Muscular Fitness Components
- The components of muscular fitness are muscular strength, muscular endurance, and power.
- Junior High students learned about the benefits of strength training, including improved muscular strength and bone density.
Measurement of Muscular Strength
- An example of a dynamic strength measurement is the number of push-ups performed in a minute.
- The primary focus of engaging in the hopscotch workout is to improve muscular strength and endurance.
