More than 66% of Americans carry extra weight. U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommends 90 minutes of physical activity per day to prevent weight gain, lose weight, or maintain weight loss. Components Of Physical Fitness: Health-related, and Skill related Health-related fitness components - Cardiorespiratory endurance - Flexibility - Muscular strength - Body composition - Muscular endurance 1. Cardio-respiratory Endurance: - A central component of fitness. Represents the ability of the body to perform prolonged, large-muscle group, rhythmic exercise at moderate-to-high intensity. for e.g., Long-distance run, cycling The heart of a person with Low CR fitness is required to work harder for daily activities and not able to sustain high-intensity physical activities Effects of Cardiorespiratory Endurance Exercises: Downloaded by Mohammad Ahmed ([email protected]) lOMoARcPSD|36356430 ↓ RHR ↑ blood volume/pump muscle metabolism BP viable BV cools down better - The heart pumps more blood per - The body can cool itself better. heartbeat. - Blood vessels become more pliable. - Resting Heart rate(RHR) slows. - Skeletal muscle metabolism - Resting blood pressure decreases increases. - Blood volume improves. Cardiorespiratory Endurance: Effect on Genes Physically fit people also have healthier genes. - Exercise preserves gene structures called telomeres - Shortened and ineffective telomeres trigger illness and death. - Exercise prevents them from shortening Poor CR fitness may lead to heart diseases, type 2 diabetes, stroke, colon cancer, depression, anxiety. 2. Muscular Strength: - Amount of force that muscle can produce in a single maximum effort. Muscular strength is required for: - daily life activities, keeping joints healthy and allows participation in recreational activity. It depends on the size of the muscle and Neuro-muscular activation. - Size and number of Motor Unit no muche strength d Other Benefits of Strength Training: saropeme ↓ health- part Improves body composition. osteoporos - Higher rate of metabolism. joints & > - bores. Strength training also prevents osteoporosis in old age. - Both size and no. of muscle decreases with Aging (aka sarcopenia) leads to a decrease in bone density (osteoporosis). - Makes strength training even more important in advanced age. 3. Muscular Endurance: - The ability of the muscle to remain contracted or to contract repeatedly for a day ↑ longer period. strengt ↑ neusche - Depends on size, ability to store fuel, and metabolic capacity of muscle. enduane & musde - Important for maintaining good posture, antigravity muscles, and injury Pressure prevention. - E.g., Back and abdominal muscle to support the spine 4. Flexibility: - Ability to move joints through their full ranges of motion. - Depends mainly on: ① ② - joint structure and type, length and elasticity of connective tissue and ③ muscle, and nervous system activity. - An important component for daily activities and injury prevention.

Introduction: Muscles make up more than 40% of body mass and are required for - body movement - and as the site of metabolic reactions Muscular strength is the amount of force that can be produced by a muscle in a single max effort. Muscular endurance is the ability to hold or repeat muscular contraction for a long time. Adequate Muscular strength and endurance are vital to health, wellness, and overall quality of life. Structure and organization of Muscle Muscle is made up of muscle cells. - Each muscle cell is known as a “muscle fiber” ⑳ madeener Small bundles of muscle fibers are known as “fascicles” - Epimysium: the outermost connective tissue that surrounds the whole muscle muschetbers ↳ endomysum muscle tuber many - Perimysium: connective tissue surrounding fascicle forms fascles ↳ penysum group oftrides - Endomysium: connective tissue surrounding each muscle fiber ↳ epampum - Myofibrils: Protein content of muscle (Actin and Myosin) Components of Skeletal Muscle Tissue: Downloaded by Mohammad Ahmed ([email protected]) lOMoARcPSD|36356430 ↑ size = hypertrophy Factors Affecting Force Production: number ↑ : hypophath Muscle Mass: ↓ amount - Hypertrophy: Increased size of muscle fibers atrophy. : - Hyperplasia: Increase in the number of muscle fibers - Atrophy: Decrease in the amount of muscle fibers Muscle Fibers: Type I (Slow-twitch fibers) Type II (Fast-twitch fibers) - Red muscle fibers - White muscle fibers - slow contraction speed - High contraction speed - Low force production - High force production. - fatigue-resistant - fatigue quickly - Energy system:? - Energy system:? - Good for endurance activities. - Good for strength and power Most muscle contains both fibers, but their proportion varies with muscle and individual Motor Units: Motor unit: A single motor nerve and total muscle fibers supplied by that motor nerve. - They can be small or large based on no. of muscle fibers supplied by that motor nerve. The amount of force produces by a muscle depends on no. and type of motor unit recruited. Downloaded by Mohammad Ahmed ([email protected]) lOMoARcPSD|36356430 Motor Units: (continued) Motor unit recruitment decreases with age. By the age of 70, 15 % of motor nerves in most people are no longer connected to muscle tissue. - Strength training improves motor connections and muscle quickness in old age. - Strength training can also lessen the bone loss in post-menopausal women. Strength Training and Health Benefits: Strength training helps prevent and manage cardiovascular disease (CVD) and diabetes: - Improving glucose metabolism - Increasing maximal oxygen consumption - Reducing blood pressure - Increasing HDL cholesterol and reducing LDL cholesterol(in some people) - Improving blood vessel health Assessing Muscular Strength and Endurance Strength: assessed by measuring the maximum amount of weight a person can lift in a single effort, is k/a 1 Repetition Maximum(RM) - Common tests: Squat 1 RM test, Bench Press 1RM test - 1RM can be estimated by using multiple repetitions with the submaximal load. (5-RM, 3 RM) Muscular endurance is assessed by counting maximum no. of repetition or maximum duration to hold a contraction. - Common tests: push up, curl up, Plank, squat endurance test. Static (Isometric) Exercise: Exercise involving a muscle contraction without a change in the muscle length or the angle in the joint. - E. g. Tighten abdominal Muscle, using the wall for resistance. - Important strengthening exercise after surgery or injury In every movement, some muscles work statically (stabilizing the joint, maintaining the posture, etc.), which allows other muscles to contract dynamically. Dynamic (Isotonic) Exercise: Exercise involving a muscle contraction with a change in the muscle length Concentric muscle contraction (isometric): - Dynamic contraction where muscle gets shorter as it contracts, Muscle force overcomes external force. “Causing the movements” Eccentric muscle contraction (plyometric) - Dynamic contraction where the muscle lengthens as it generates force; Muscular force is less than the resistance. “Controlling the movement” Downloaded by Mohammad Ahmed ([email protected])
