Study Notes
Physical Activity
- Defined as movements by skeletal muscles resulting in energy expenditure.
- Four domains: occupational, domestic, transportation, and leisure time.
Types of Physical Activity
- Aerobic Activities: Improve cardio-respiratory endurance; examples include running and swimming.
- Muscle-Strengthening: Resistance training to enhance muscular strength and endurance.
- Bone-Strengthening: Weight-bearing activities that promote bone growth and strength.
Body Energy Systems
- Phosphagen System: Quick energy for short, intense activities (e.g., sprinting).
- Anaerobic Glycolysis: Energy for activities lasting a few minutes without oxygen (e.g., gymnastics).
- Aerobic System: Sustains energy for prolonged activities (e.g., marathon running).
Lifestyle Factors
- Encompasses habits and attitudes that affect overall health, differentiated between healthy and unhealthy choices.
Health-Related Fitness Components
- Cardiovascular Endurance: Capacity for sustained aerobic activity.
- Muscular Endurance: Ability to perform repeated movements.
- Muscular Strength: Maximum force a muscle can exert.
- Flexibility: Range of motion around joints.
- Body Composition: Ratio of fat to lean mass in the body.
Physical Fitness Assessments
- Assessments provide feedback on fitness status and guide exercise plans.
Healthy Lifestyle Choices
- Balance necessary elements: physical activity, nutrition, relaxation, sleep, and hygiene.
Dietary Recommendations (FNRI-DOST)
- Macronutrient Ratios for Ages 13-19: 55-70% carbohydrates, 20-30% proteins, 10-15% fats.
Types of Eating Behaviors
- Fueling for performance, emotional eating, social eating, and habitual or recreational eating.
Training Principles
- Overload: Increase demands on the body for improvement.
- Progression: Gradually increase exercise intensity.
- Specificity: Adaptations are specific to the type of training.
Balance Exercises
- Improve stability and prevent falls; examples include standing on one leg and Tai Chi movements.
Strength and Resistance Training
- Builds muscle strength through weighted exercises; includes push-ups and squats.
Flexibility Exercises
- Increase range of motion; includes stretching exercises like hamstring and shoulder stretches.
FITT Principle
- Framework for exercise planning: Frequency, Intensity, Time, and Type.
Safety Guidelines for Physical Activity
- Be aware of environmental conditions; hydration and appropriate clothing are critical.
Heat-Related Conditions
- Heat Cramps: Painful muscle spasms due to dehydration.
- Heat Exhaustion: Symptoms include heavy sweating and rapid pulse.
- Heatstroke: Severe overheating requiring immediate medical attention.
Cold Weather Safety
- Avoid extreme conditions to prevent hypothermia and use warm clothing.
Injury Prevention
- Understand types of injuries: environmental/accidental versus overuse.
- Key examples include sprains and strains, noting symptoms like pain and swelling.
Nutrition for Athletic Performance
- Focus on pre- and post-workout fueling; hydration and nutrient balance are vital.
Healthy Eating Habits
- Aim for 5-6 balanced meals daily, control portions, eat breakfast regularly, and stay hydrated.
Importance of Whole Grains
- Linked to weight loss and reduced chronic disease risk; they promote satiety.
Avoiding Empty Calories
- Recognize the adverse effects of excessive empty calorie consumption on health.
Hydration
- Essential for nutrient transport, temperature regulation, and overall body functioning; aim for 8-10 glasses of water daily.### Hydration Sources
- Optimal hydration comes from non-caffeinated, non-alcoholic beverages, soups, and watery foods like fruits and vegetables.
- Approximately 20% of daily water intake can be derived from food sources.
- Drinking water with each meal is recommended, along with keeping a water bottle accessible for constant hydration.
Weighing Considerations
- Daily weighing is not advisable; the scale only provides numerical data that doesn’t reflect body composition (ratio of lean mass to fat).
- Frequent weigh-ins can lead to demotivation if weight loss appears slower than expected; focus should be on overall health rather than a number.
Reducing Sedentary Time
- Excessive time spent being sedentary, such as watching television, correlates with mindless snacking and calorie consumption.
- Research highlights that individuals who successfully lose weight tend to watch fewer than 10 hours of television each week.
Optimism and Behavior Change
- Studies indicate that an optimistic mindset contributes to successful behavior modifications, including healthier eating and weight loss.
- Focusing on what can be achieved (gaining health) instead of what is lost (losing weight) promotes positive change.
Role of Supplements
- A balanced diet provides essential nutrients needed for bodily functions and overall health.
- Dietary supplements, including vitamins, fatty acids, and minerals, support cellular health and regeneration, enhancing the body's protective systems.
