Components of Fitness

AB
Resistance TrainingAn activity that places an additional force against the muscle or muscle group
F.I.T.T. PrincipleThe variables of frequency, intensity, time (duration) and type.
AnaerobicEnergy producing system within the muscle that is withour oxygen.
ProgressionThe gradual increase in one or more of the FITT variables to create an overload.
Body CompositionThe combination of fat mass and fat-free mass including fat, bones, muscles, water and organs.
Maximum Heart RateTo determine your maximum heart rate subtract your present age from 220.
Cool DownAn activity that prepares your muscles to return to a resting state.
OverloadAn increase in one or more of the FITT variables therefore placing a demand on the body beyond normal performance.
Cardiorespiratory EnduranceThe ability of the heart, blood, blood vessels and lungs to supply enough oxugen to the muscles during long periods of physical activity.
Which system is used for short burst of power and speed?Anaerobic
IntensityTraining load expressed as weight, speed or heart rate.
Muscular StrengthThe ability of the muscles to push or pull with total force.
FrequencyThe number of exercise sessions per week for an individual.
FlexibilityThe muscles ability to move a joint through a full range of motion.
Circuit TrainingA series of exercises in which a person moves from one station to another.
Dynamic StratchesInvolves moving parts of the body continuously while gradually increasing reach, speed or movement of both gently through a full range of motion. Flexibility through motion.
Muscular EnduranceThe ability of muscles to repeat a movement many times or to hold a position without stopping to rest.
HydrationTaking in fluids so the body functions properly.
Warm upAn activity that prepares the muscles for work.
Resting Heart RateThe number of times your heart beats in one minute when you are not activity.
TimeMinutes or repetitions of an activity
SpecificityExercise Training that is specific to the muscles used and the components of fitness trained.
Target Heart RateFirst find your maximum heart rate, calculate a range between 65%-85% percent of maximum and this is how you find your target heart rate
When is the best time to take your resting heart rate?Before you get out of bed in the morning.
Which heart rate will allow you to gain the most benefits from training and keep you the safest?Target Heart Rate
Which heart rate shuold you not go over for an extended period of time?Maximum Heart Rate
TypeNaming the activity that is being performed
Static StretchesInvolves stretching a muscle to the point of mild discomfort and holding it there with no movement for an extended period of time.
