    Energy Systems for Muscle

    • The Aerobic Energy System supplies energy for low-intensity activities lasting from two minutes to several hours; also known as the Oxidative system.

    Eating Habits

    • Balance in diet is important; both under-eating and over-eating can lead to malnutrition, overweight, or obesity.
    • Malnutrition can occur when individuals don't consume adequate nutrients, leading to lack of energy.

    Sleep Management

    • Recommended sleep duration is 6 to 8 hours per night for optimal health.
    • Poor sleep habits, prevalent among teens, include staying up late for work, internet addiction, and eating before bedtime.

    Effects of Stress

    • Stress is a common life component that can result from environmental factors, fatigue, workload, and loneliness.
    • If not managed, stress can lead to health issues such as poor immunity, hypertension, and heart disease.

    Types of Eating Habits

    • Fuel for Performance: Athletes need balanced intake of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and water for optimal performance.
    • Emotional Eating: Consuming food in response to emotions rather than hunger.

    • Types of physical activity:
      • Aerobic: Moderate intensity, enhances cardiovascular health (e.g., jogging, swimming).
      • Anaerobic: High-intensity, short-duration activities requiring high energy (e.g., sprinting).
      • Lifestyle Activities: Routine tasks such as walking or climbing stairs.
      • Play and Sports: Engaging in enjoyable activities and organized games under structured rules.

    Physical Fitness Testing

    • Assessing health status helps in identifying strengths and weaknesses. This awareness aids in planning a healthy lifestyle and targeted improvements.
    • Cardiovascular Endurance: Ability to sustain activity through efficient oxygen delivery.
    • Muscular Strength: Maximum force exerted by muscles in one effort, beneficial for daily activities.
    • Muscular Endurance: Capability of muscles to perform continuously without fatigue.
    • Flexibility: Range of motion in joints.
    • Body Composition: Ratios of fat, muscle, bone, and water in the body.

    Barriers to Physical Activity

    • Personal barriers include lack of time, motivation, enjoyment, confidence, and support from others.
