    Study Notes

    Power and Strength

    • Power is the capacity of muscles to exert maximum force rapidly.
    • Muscle strengthening involves resistance training and weightlifting, enhancing muscles by working against applied forces.
    • Health-related fitness includes strength, exemplified by performing push-ups, e.g., 50 repetitions.

    Fitness Components

    • Agility refers to the ability to move quickly and change direction while performing a task, such as dribbling a basketball.
    • Balance is crucial in skill-related fitness, particularly in sports like gymnastics.
    • Power is essential for skills in racquet sports, as seen with a strong badminton smash.

    Domains of Physical Activity

    • Domestic physical activities include chores like cleaning, dishwashing, and gardening.
    • Occupational physical activities can include interactions like preparing meals in a shared workspace.

    Fitness Testing

    • The 3-minute Step Test measures cardiovascular endurance, assessing heart response to aerobic exertion.

    Exercise Principles

    • REFLECT, REPLACE, REINFORCE approach helps in improving eating habits.
    • The Principle of Progression emphasizes gradual increases in exercise intensity or load.
    • Exercise load plays a critical role in adapting and improving fitness when performed consistently.

    Heart Rate and Intensity

    • The target heart rate for vigorous-intensity workouts should range from 77% to 93% of maximum heart rate.
    • Maximum target heart rate can be calculated by subtracting age from 220.
    • Heart rate reserve is determined by resting heart rate subtracted from maximum heart rate.

    Warm-Up and Cool Down

    • Warm-up is crucial before strenuous activities, preparing the body physically and mentally.
    • Cool down is essential post-exercise to aid recovery and slowly transition the body back to rest.

    Types of Exercise

    • Aerobic exercises increase heart rate and breathing, enhancing cardiovascular fitness.
    • Static stretching is recommended for general fitness, focusing on slow, sustained stretches.

    General Recommendations

    • It is advised to engage in at least 60 minutes of physical activity daily.
    • Diabetes Type 2 can be exacerbated by a lack of physical activity.

    Additional Concepts

    • A mass demonstration involves collective action for political causes, often organized as marches or rallies.
    • Planning is crucial for success in any activity, highlighting its importance in achieving goals.

    Reaction Time

    • Quick responses, such as dodging an incoming object, demonstrate the importance of reaction time for safety and athletic performance.
