    Study Notes

    Muscle Force Capacity

    • The capacity of muscle to produce force during a short period is termed muscle power.

    Body Composition Improvement

    • Engaging in strength training activities like resistance exercises promotes improvements in body composition, enhancing muscle mass and reducing fat.

    Flexibility in Physical Fitness

    • Flexibility refers to the range of motion of joints and the ability of muscles and connective tissues to stretch, essential for overall physical fitness.

    Composition of Physical Fitness

    • The component of physical fitness that focuses on body composition is called body composition, which examines the proportions of fat, bone, muscle, and other tissues.

    Joint Health

    • The ability to move through minimum ranges to maintain joint and body health is a characteristic of flexibility.

    Definition of Muscular Endurance

    • Muscular endurance is defined as the ability of a muscle or muscle group to perform repeated contractions over an extended period without fatigue.

    Enhancing Cardiovascular Endurance

    • Activities such as weightlifting are generally NOT recommended for enhancing cardiovascular endurance, as they focus more on strength than aerobic fitness.

    Principle of Specificity

    • The principle of training that ensures exercises are relevant to a specific sport is known as the principle of specificity.

    FITT Component: Frequency

    • In the FITT framework, frequency relates to how often an individual trains, impacting overall fitness progression and adaptation.

    Principle of Reversibility

    • According to the principle of reversibility, if an individual stops training, their fitness level will decline, leading to a decrease in strength, endurance, and overall physical performance.
