Study Notes
Physical Fitness Components
- Organic Vigor: Measures cardiovascular and respiratory efficiency, essential for disease resistance.
- Cardiorespiratory Endurance: Enables lungs and heart to supply oxygen to muscles, crucial for prolonged activities involving large muscle groups.
- Muscular Endurance: Reflects the ability to exert submaximal force repetitively or sustain contractions over time.
- Muscular Strength: Represents the maximum force output achievable in a single effort against resistance.
- Flexibility: Indicates a joint's functional capacity to move through its full range of motion.
- Speed: Refers to the capacity to perform successive movements quickly.
- Agility: Involves changing position swiftly, emphasizing movement quickness.
- Power: Concerns the ability to exert maximum force rapidly, highlighting muscular efficiency.
- Balance: Represents control over body positions, ensuring equilibrium and stability.
- Coordination: Involves the integration of sensory input with body movements for smooth and precise task execution.
Warm-Up Types
- General Warm-Up: Aims to elevate body temperature, increase heart rate, and boost blood flow to muscles in preparation for physical activity.
- Dynamic Warm-Up: Involves active movements that replicate workout activities, preparing muscles and joints specifically for those movements.
- Sport-Specific Warm-Up: Tailored to meet the specific physical demands of a chosen sport or activity.
- Stretching as a Warm-Up: Enhances flexibility and range of motion, often integrated with dynamic movements for better effectiveness.
- Mobility Drills: Focus on improving joint flexibility and range of motion, commonly employed before weightlifting or high-intensity sports.
