This document discusses concepts related to movement and exercise. It defines key movement concepts like body awareness, spatial awareness, and qualities of movement including balance, time, force, and flow. It also outlines different types of exercise like isotonic, isometric, and aerobic exercise. Finally, it introduces the FITT principle for designing effective exercise programs, which stands for frequency, intensity, time, and type of exercise.

Importance of Understanding Movement ● TIME ● Help people move efficiently o Refers to the speed or pace of movement ● Improve quality of performance o The movements vary on a continuum from slow to ● Enhance level of performance fast ● Appreciate the contribution of physical activities ● FORCE o The energy required to move an object is termed B. General factor affecting or influencing movement force ● Movement involves most of the systems of the body o Force is initiated through muscular contraction ● All movement is governed by certain mechanical principles ● FLOW ● Fear, anxiety, and self-confidence can alter movement o Ability to smoothly join together different movements ● Membership in a group can influence participation in physical o Refers to the continuity of movement, the ease with activities. which one movement flows or leads to the next
II. MOVEMENT CONCEPTS III. TYPES OF EXERCISE
● Body awareness - What the body can do? o names and locations of body parts (head, foot, ISOTONIC EXERCISE - aims to give muscles a tone which is done by knee, elbow, shoulder, hand, leg, arm, hip, waist). conducting contraction and relaxation. It is a part of the basic activities o body shapes and positions (curve, straight, for physical education. narrow, wide, symmetrical and asymmetrical) o movements of the body (flexion, ISOMETRIC EXERCISE - aims to develop muscles extra strength. It is extension,rotation, supination, pronation, adduction, achieved by undergoing muscle tension and hold for duration of time. abduction) o body as a communicator (communication of AEROBIC EXERCISE - aims to develop flexibility which is achieved by feelings, ideas, interpretations through body intense body movements such as: walking, running, jogging and postures, gestures and movements) dancing. These activities are very important to the heart and lungs o awareness of muscle tension and relaxation because fast breathing is experienced by doing the activities. (tension and relaxation, tense and relax) ● Spacial Awareness - Where does the body move? IV. FITT PRINCIPLE o Self-space (personal space): The area immediately surrounding a person, including the area that can be F- FREQUENCY reached by extending parts of the body I - INTENSITY o General space: total area within which an individual T - TYPE or individuals can move) T - TIME o Direction: individuals can move in many different directions; including forward, backward, up, down, This are the key factors in designing an exercise program that will left, right address the current fitness level, provide means to overload the body. o Levels: refers to horizontal areas in space, And trigger positive adaptations. This variables can be modified described in relation to the standing body occasionally to consistently challenge the body to become stronger. It is o Pathways: line of movement from one point to important to remember that increasing the workload should be done another, either on the ground or in the air. one variable at a time to prevent chronic injuries or over-training. The o Range: extension of the body into self-space. proposed recommendations and conservative. FITT principle - one of the foundations of exercise, a set of guidelines that help you design a workout routine to fit your fitness level and goals. ● Qualities of Movement o as personsons move, they vary their movements by altering the body’s balance and adjusting the time or
