 ✓ Explain how to optimize the energy systems for safe and improved
performance
✓ Explains the role of physical activity assessments in managing one’s stress
✓ Sets FITT goals based on training principles to achieve and/or maintain HRF
✓ Self-assess health-related fitness (HRF), status, barriers to physical activity

Food Fuels for Energy

1. Carbohydrates (CHO) – preferred source of fuel during exercise (glycogen)
2. Fat – concentrated fuel used during rest and prolonged submaximal exercise
3. Protein – used for growth and repair (negligible use during exercise)

Energy is the ability or capacity to do work and is measured in calories or joules.

There are three energy systems:

1. ATP or Adenosine Triphosphate – an organic compound that provides
energy to drive many processes in living cells such as muscle contraction,
nerve impulse propagation.
2. Glycolytic System – the breakdown (lysis) of glucose and consists of a
series of chemical reactions that are controlled by enzymes
3. Oxidative System – also known as Krebs Cycle and the citric acid cycle. In
this system, carbohydrates and fats are the primary energy sources converted
into ATP and this process takes place in the mitochondria of the cell.
If we have enough oxygen present in the blood, then pyruvate, the end
product of glycolysis, is shuttled to the mitochondria and we enter the
oxidative energy system.

Aerobic vs Anaerobic

Aerobic exercise is any type of cardiovascular conditioning or “cardio”. During the

cardiovascular conditioning, your breathing and heart rate increase for a sustained
period of time. Oxygen is your main energy source during aerobic workouts,
therefore Oxidative System energy is used.

Benefits of Aerobic Exercises:

✓ Reduce risk of heart attack
✓ Reduce risk of type 2 diabetes
✓ Recue risk of stroke
✓ Help lose weight and keep it off
✓ Help lower and control blood pressure
✓ Increase stamina and reduce fatigue during exercise
✓ Activates immune systems, making you less likely to get colds or flu
✓ Strengthens the heart
✓ Boosts mood
✓ Help you live longer than those who doesn’t exercise

Anaerobic exercises involve quick burst of energy and are performed at maximum
effort for a short time. The energy system used are the ATP and Glycolytic System.

Benefits of Anaerobic Exercises:

✓ Build muscles
✓ Lose weight
✓ Maintain muscle mass as you age
✓ Strengthens bones
✓ Burns fat
✓ Increase stamina for daily activities like hiking, dancing, or playing

Note to Teachers: Read the following instructions to the learners as part of the
psychosocial activity at the same time a sample activity for anaerobic activity.
Prepare a solemn music background for this activity.

DANCE as Stress Reliever
People from different places enjoy dancing such as in schools, social venues,
community halls, our own home and even in social media through vlogs and tiktok.
Dancing has become popular way to be active and a healthy exercise program. Here
are some reasons why dancing is a popular stress reliever:
1. When the body feels good, the mind does too! The scientific reason for why
dance has the ability to act a stress reliever stems from the idea that when the body
feels good, the mind does, too. Any type of physical activity releases
neurotransmitters and endorphins which serve to alleviate stress. Endorphins are
body’s natural pain killer to reduce stress and improve the mind’s perception of the
world. It causes the body to feel calm and optimistic. It also aids in improving the
quality of sleep, so that a few sleepless nights due to stress can be avoided after
dancing!
2. Dance offers a creative outlet for people to express their personalities in a safe
environment. Dancing offers an outlet for people to express who they are – through
music, movements or even costumes! Dancing helps you connect to whom who you
really are.
3. Dancing improves your physical health. From weight loss, to increased flexibility,
stronger bones and building muscle tone, dancing is a total body workout.

Introduction to Dance

The fundamental principle that dance is an art form or activity that utilizes the
body and the range of movement of which the body is capable. Unlike the
movements performed in everyday living, dance movements are not directly related
to work, travel, or survival. Dance may, of course, be made up of movements
associated with these activities, as in the work dances common to many cultures,
and it may even accompany such activities.

But even in the most practical dances, movements that make up the dance
are not reducible to those of straightforward labor; rather, they involve some extra
qualities such as self-expression, aesthetic pleasure, and entertainment.

8
 One of the most basic motives of dance is the expression and communication
of emotion. People—and even certain higher animals—often dance as a way of
releasing powerful feelings, such as sudden accesses of high spirits, joy, impatience,
or anger. These motive forces can be seen not only in the spontaneous skipping,
stamping, and jumping movements often performed in moments of intense emotion,
but also in the more formalized movements of “set” dances, such as tribal war
dances or festive folk dances.

Dance Genre:

1. Folk Dance - a dance developed by people that reflect the life of the people
of a certain country or region. (Wikipedia)
2. Modern Dance - a broad genre of western concert or theatrical dance,
primarily arising out of Germany and the United States in the late 19th and
early 20th centuries. It is often considered to have emerged as a rejection of
or rebellion against, classical ballet. (Wikipedia)
3. Ballroom Dance – a set of partner dance enjoyed socially and competitively
around the world. With the emergence of dance competition, it is now known
as Dancesports. (Wikipedia)
4. Hip-hop Dance – also known as street dance styles primarily to hip-hop
music or that have evolved as part of hip-hop culture. (Wikipedia)

 Before exploring our body with dance activities, we must assess our body if
we are healthy enough to face different genre of dance as we optimize our energies.
Based on the DepEd Order No. 34, s. 2019 signed December 9, 2019 also
known as Revised Physical Fitness Test Manual, the following are objectives of the
following activity:
1. To determine the level of fitness of students;
2. To identify strength and weaknesses for development and improvement;
3. To provide baseline data for selection of physical activities for enhancement
of health and skill performance;
4. To gather data for the development of norms and standards;
5. To motivate, guide and counsel pupils/students in selecting sports for
recreation, competition, and lifetime participation.

Physical Fitness Test is a set of measures designed to determine a student’s

level of physical fitness. It is intended to test two categories of physical fitness
commonly referred to as “health-related” and “skill-related”.
Health-related components refer to those physical attributes which enable a
person to cope with the requirements of daily living such as:
✓ cardio-vascular endurance or stamina
✓ muscular strength and endurance
✓ flexibility
✓ appropriate body mass index (BMI)
Skill-related components are physical abilities that show potential for good
performance in certain skills (usually in sports) like:
✓ speed
✓ agility
✓ reaction time or quickness
✓ balance
✓ coordination

 Lesson

3 Sets FITT Goals

Now that you have record the result of your physical fitness test, you have then
determined your strengths and weaknesses. With that fact, you are now ready to create your
fitness plan. Let us try to use FITT Principle to achieve this health goals.

The FITT Principle (or formula) is a great way of monitoring your exercise program. The key
components or training guidelines for an effective exercise program is spelled out with the
acronym FITT
F – frequency – refers to the repetition of exercise undertaken or how often you
exercise
I – intensity – refers to the amount of energy the exercise required or how hard you
exercise
T – time – refers to the number of minutes or hours you spend exercising or how
long you exercise
T – type – refers to the type of exercise undertaken or what kind of exercise you do

Try to identify what principle of FITT the statement refers to. Write if it is frequency,
intensity time or type.

1. Adjust the number of times you exercise per day/week/month to reflect:

your current fitness level; the time you realistically have available; your
other commitments like family and work; and the goals you’ve set for
yourself.
2. It refers to the dedication to exercise usually depends on the type of
exercise undertaken
3. The factor that refers to the monitoring of heart rate.

4. The kind of exercise you choose will have a big effect on the result you
achieve. That’s why it’s important to know what you want to gain form
your efforts.

1. Overload Principle – the body adapt to stimulus, once the body has
accepted then a different stimulus is required to continue the change. In order
for the muscle (including the heart) to increase strength, it must be gradually
stressed by working against a load greater than it is used to.
2. Progressive Principle – means the body adapts to the initial overload, the
overload must be adjusted and increase gradually.
3. Recovery Principle – adaptation to physical activity occurs gradually and
naturally, but time must be allowed for the regenerate and build.
4. Reversibility Principle – all gains due to exercise will be lost if one does not
continue to exercise
5. Specificity Principle – training should be relevant and appropriate to the
individuals need in order to produce effective result
6. Variation Principle – training programs varies in intensity, duration, volume
and other important aspects of practice
