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.
