Topic Presentation

Introduction to Physical Education

Physical Education is an integral part of the educational program designed to

promote the optimum development of an individual physically, mentally, socially,
emotionally and spiritually through total body movement in the performance of
properly selected physical activities. Through active participation in the properly
selected physical education activities, students will develop good health and
maintain their high level of physical fitness that enable them to enjoy good life.
Physical education as a part of educational system strives to help or facilitate the
development of the potentialities of the individual so that he can attain total fitness
that enable him to enjoy good and useful life.

-Is instruction in the development and care of the body ranging from simple
calisthenic exercises to a course of study providing training in hygiene, gymnastics,
and the performance and management of athletic games. (Merriam Webster)

-It is dominated by movement and fitness education content and aimed at physical
literacy and the physical activity dispositions of all learners from the basic to the
tertiary education levels. (CHED)

Legal Basis of Physical Education

Article 14, Sec. 19 of 1987 Constitution

States that 1. “the state shall promote Physical education and encourage sports
program league competitions and amateur sports, including training for International

1. The goal of Physical Education is to instill in young citizens a proper

appreciation of the importance of physical development hand in hand with
the mental development in individual and social activities;

2. The sport and other activities in a Physical Education program should

provide opportunities for the athletic development of children and youth who
have the competitive spirit as well as grace, coordination, stamina and
strength;

3. A well–rounded program for sports development in the schools requires

effective organizational planning and administration with provisions for
adequate training facilities and sustained stable financing.

Physical Fitness and its Components

Physical Fitness it is the ability of an individual to perform daily tasks vigorously

and alertly, without undue fatigue and still has ample amount of energy to enjoy
leisure and meet emergencies.

3. Coordination
- Relates to the ability to use the senses such as sight and hearing,
together with body parts in performing motor tasks smoothly and
accurately.

4. Power
- Relates to the ability to the rate at which one can perform work.

5. Speed
- Relates to the ability to perform a movement within a short period of
time.

6. Reaction Time
- Relates to the time elapsed between simulation and the beginning of
reaction to it.

Introduction to Human Movement

Movement Enhancement
Aims to teach the human movement and its benefits to the body’s health and
well-being. It is a guide to provide basic and sufficient knowledge how to perform
various movements.

Objectives of Movement Enhancement

“Building the capacity of the participants to deliver the said course effectively”.

Movement is a basic activity of a man. We start moving during conception and stop
at death.

QUICKENING – baby’s first movements inside the womb.

(Quickening starts during the 16th to 24th week of pregnancy. And it also means that
the baby is alive and healthy. It can be a form
of gentle kicks, flutter, swish or roll.)

At Birth
- Arm and legs Flexing/ Stretching
- sucking
-Tonic Neck Reflexes

(After Few Months)

- Tumble
- Crawl
- Stand
- Walk

Childhood
• More Complex and wider range of Motion, Balance,
Muscle Strength, coordination, and endurance.
• They become more aware of adjusting their moves
according to the situation, places, events, and people
they encounter.

Adulthood
• More complex BUT more
ACCURATE and precise
motor skills necessary to
his/ her daily activities.

Physical Development and Movement

• Is the foundation of Physical Education

• Experiencing and developing a wide range of fundamental to specialized

complex movement skills that will improve his/ her motor and mental skills,
self- confidence, self-awareness, and personality in general that are needed
in having a healthy lifestyle.

Movement Education
• Refers to a wide variety of experiential activities where one learns the
capabilities of their bodies. The focus of movement education
is to enhance the motor skills of the learners through
movement.

Significance of Human Movement

• The study of Human enhancement gives us

better understanding of our body and its
parts, functions, capabilities, and
limitations.

• By having better knowledge about

movement mechanisms, we become more efficient in doing our
daily activities, P.E practicums, dance and
sports.
• Preventing and Treating Injuries
• Plan diet to ensure healthy lifestyle

What is Exercise?
● According to the Health line, Exercise is defined as any movement that makes
your muscles work and requires your body to burn calories.

The Importance of Exercise:

● It can make you feel happier- Exercise has been shown to improve your
mood and decrease feelings of depression, anxiety, and stress. Additionally,
exercise can increase the production of endorphins, which are known to help
produce positive feelings and reduce the perception of pain.

● It can help with weight loss- Some studies have shown that inactivity is a
major factor in weight gain and obesity. To understand the effect of exercise
on weight reduction, it is important to understand the relationship between
exercise and energy expenditure. Your body spends energy in three ways:
digesting food, exercising, maintaining body functions

● It is good for your muscles and bones- Exercise plays a vital role in building
and maintaining strong muscles and bones. Activities like weightlifting can
stimulate muscle building when paired with adequate protein intake.
● It can increase your energy levels- Exercise can be a real energy booster for
many people, including those with various medical conditions.
● It can reduce your risk of chronic disease- Lack of regular physical activity
is a primary cause of chronic disease. Regular exercise has been shown to
improve insulin sensitivity, heart health, and body composition. It can also
decrease blood pressure and cholesterol levels.
● It can help your brain health and memory- Exercise can improve brain
function and protect memory and thinking skills. To begin with, it increases
your heart rate, which promotes the flow of blood and oxygen to your brain. It
can also stimulate the production of hormones that enhance the growth of
brain cells.
● It can help with relaxation and sleep quality- With regard to sleep quality,
the energy depletion that occurs during exercise stimulates recuperative
processes during sleep.

Fundamentals of Human Movements:

● Pulling motion- which consists of pulling weight toward your body or your
body towards your hands. This can be a vertical or horizontal pull, such as a
pull-up or barbell row, respectively. The main muscles being worked in these
sets of movements are the mid and upper back, biceps, forearms, and rear
shoulders.
● Pushing is the opposite of the pull. This movement involves pushing a weight
away from your body or your body away from an object. This group is also
divided into vertical and horizontal components as well. Exercises in this
group include push-ups and dumbbell shoulder presses.
● The squat is considered to be the most complex movement the human body is
capable of. Variations of the squat include goblet squats, sumo squats, front
squats, and much more. The squat targets the gluts, core, quadriceps, and to a
slight degree, the hamstring muscles.
● Another lower body movement is the lunge, which involves your body in a
less stable position of one foot further forward than the other. Since your body
is at a disadvantaged stance, this movement set demands greater flexibility,
stability, and balance.
● Hinge exercises, which are executed by kicking your butt back and leaning
your torso forward while maintaining a neutral spine—like when picking up
something off the floor. The most crucial exercises in this group are deadlifts,
with varying forms such as sumo deadlifts, Romanian deadlifts, kettle bell
deadlifts, etc.
● Rotation is unique from the other six movements because of the plane that it
works in. The other exercises involve moving forward and backward or side to
side, yet rotation involves twisting at the core.

● Gait, which is the technique of walking. This might seem trivial, but walking
is a fundamental movement. Exercises that could be done in this group include
jogging, jumping, and farmer’s walk.
