| Exercise | physical activity that consists of a regular series of activities to train and strengthen the body |
| Body Composition (p. 47) | the ratio of body fat to lean body tissue, including muscle, bone, water and connective tissue such as ligaments, cartilage and tendons. |
| Physical Fitness (p. 46) | the ability to carry out daily task easily and have enough reserve energy to respond to unexpected demands. |
| Aerobic Fitness | the ability to endure at least 10 minutes of moderate activity |
| Flexibility (p. 47) | the ability to move body part through a full range of motion. |
| Aerobic Exercise (p. 57) | vigorous activity in which oxygen is continuosly taken in for a period of at least 20 minutes. |
| Anaerobic Exercise (p. 58) | intense bursts of activity in which the muscles work so hard that they produce energy without using oxygen. |
| Muscular Strength (p. 47) | the amount of force a muscle can exert. |
| Muscular Endurance (p. 48) | the ability of the muscles to do difficult physical tasks over a period of time without causing fatigue. |
| Cardiorespiratory Endurance (p. 48) | the ability of the heart, lungs and blood vessels to send fuel and oxygen to the body's tissues during long periods of vigorous activity. |
| Sedentary Lifestyle (p. 54) | a way of life that requires little movement or exercise. |
| Metabolism (p. 54) | the process by which your body gets energy from food. |
| Basal Metabolism (p. 54) | the minimum amount of energy required to maintain the life processes in a body. |
| Calories (p. 54) | units of heat. |
| Isometric Exercise (p. 58) | activity that uses muscle tension to improve muscular strength with little or no movement of the body part. |
| Isokinetic Exercise (p. 58) | activity that involves resistance through an entire range of motion. |
| Isotonic Exercise (p. 58) | activity that combines muscle contraction with repeated movement. |
| Cross-training (p. 62) | combining various exercise routines to help work different body systems. |
| Overload (p. 62) | working the body harder than it is normally worked. |
| Progression (p. 63) | a gradual increase in overload necessary for achieving higher levels of fitness. |
| Specificity (p. 63) | particular exercises and activities that improve particular areas of health-related fitness. |
| Warm-up (p. 63) | engaging in activity that prepares the muscles for the work that is to come. |
| Cool-down (p. 64) | engaging in activity to gradually decrease activity. |
| Resting Heart Rate (p. 65) | the number of times your heart beats in one minute when you are not active. |
| Target Heart Rate (p. 57) | the rate at which your heart should be during exercise for maximum cardiorespiratory endurance. |
| Maximum Heart Rate (p.57) | 220-age. |
| F.I.T.T. (p. 63) | Frequency, Intensity, Type of Exerise, Time. |
| Frequency (p. 63) | how often you do the activity each week. |
| Intensity (p. 63) | how hard you work at the activity during a session. |
| Type of Exercise (p. 63) | what activity are you doing? Aerobic, anaerobic, etc. |
| Time (p. 63) | how much time you devote to any given sesion. |
