Study Notes
Learning Outcomes
- Optimizing energy systems enhances performance in physical activities.
- Understanding the relationship between health behaviors and associated risk factors fosters better health management.
- Self-assessment of health-related fitness (HRF) can identify barriers to physical activity.
- Analyzing physiological indicators, such as heart rate and perceived exertion, aids in monitoring physical activity efforts.
Healthy Lifestyle
- A healthy lifestyle lowers the risk of illness and promotes longevity (WHO, 2016).
Health Behaviors
-
Good Eating Habits:
- Essential for maintaining correct weight and avoiding health risks.
- Comprise three principles of nutrition: adequacy, balance, and variety.
- Adequacy refers to sufficient nutrient intake for daily functions.
- Balance emphasizes the correct combination of foods.
- Variety involves consuming different food types.
-
Good Sleeping Habits:
- Crucial for overall health; poor sleep can lead to serious conditions (Knutson & Cauter, 2008).
-
Enough Physical Activity:
- Enhances heart and lung function, regulates blood pressure, and maintains healthy cholesterol levels (National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Disease, 2017).
-
Proper Stress Management:
- Chronic stress can contribute to cardiovascular diseases, digestive disorders, and weakened immune function (Lawson, 2017).
Energy System
- Energy obtained from food drives physical activity and is categorized by different systems (Agcaoili et al, 2017).
-
Types of Energy Systems:
- ATP-CP System: Used for maximum physical activity lasting 0-12 seconds.
- Glycolytic System: Supports moderate power activities lasting 50-120 seconds.
- Oxidative System: Utilizes fats, carbohydrates, and proteins for longer-duration energy.
- Deamination of Protein: Process of removing amino acids from proteins.
Physical Fitness Indicators
- Body Composition: Distribution of lean mass versus body fat (Wells and Fewtrell, 2006).
- Body Mass Index (BMI): Ratio of weight to height, indicative of one's weight status.
-
Waist to Hip Ratio: Measures fat distribution; thresholds differ for men and women.
- Low risk: Women ≤ 0.80; Men ≤ 0.95
- Moderate risk: Women 0.81-0.85; Men 0.96-1.0
- High risk: Women ≥ 0.86; Men ≥ 1.0
Cardiovascular Fitness
- Reflects the cardiovascular system's efficiency in oxygen delivery during exercise (Frazier, 2019).
- Assessed using the three-minute step test and heart rate recovery time.
Fitness Testing Methods
-
Three-Minute Step Test: Involves stepping for three minutes; results compared to established standards for heart rate recovery.
-
Muscular Endurance and Strength: Evaluated through push-up and curl-up tests.
- Push-up Test assesses upper body strength endurance.
- Curl-up Test focuses on abdominal muscular endurance.
-
Flexibility:
- Measured through the Sit and Reach Test and the Zipper Test.
- Sit and Reach evaluates lower extremity flexibility, while Zipper assesses upper arm and shoulder girdle flexibility.
General Understanding of Physical Fitness
- Physical fitness signifies the body’s ability to perform daily activities efficiently with energy to spare (Pauli et al, 2008).
