HEALTH ENHANCING PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
What is Health?
• "Health is a state of complete physical, mental and
social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease
or infirmity."© WHO
• Health can be defined as physical, mental, and social
wellbeing, and as a resource for living a full life.
• It refers not only to the absence of disease, but the
ability to recover and bounce back from illness and other
problems.
What is Physical Activity?
• Is defined as bodily movement produced by the skeletal
muscles that lead to energy expenditure.
• Physical activities can be classified into four domains:
1. Occupational: these are work-related activities such as
climbing the stairs or lifting objects.
2. Domestic: These are activities done at home such as
household chores.
3. Transportation: These are activities for traveling or for
commuting examples of transportation related activities
are walking and cycling.
4. Leisure Time: These are activities for recreation
examples of such activities are sports, exercise, and
hobbies.
What is Stress?
• Stress is your body’s way of responding to any kind of
demand or threat.
• Stress is a feeling of emotional or physical tension. It can
come from any event or thought that makes you feel
frustrated, angry, or nervous.
• Two types of Stress
1. Eustress- stress that has positive effects
2. Distress- stress that negatively affects
What is Wellness?
• Wellness is an active, lifelong process of becoming
aware of your choices and making decisions that will
help you to live a more balanced and fulfilling life.
4 Factors that influence Health
• Lifestyle: It means 'the way people live'. It includes
culture, behaviour and also habits like smoking and
alcoholism. A number of diseases like heart diseases,
cancer and diabetes are related to life style. Good life -
style like good food, sleep and exercise promotes better
health.
• Heredity: Genes determine the health of an individual
from the moment of conception. The genetic makeup
cannot be altered. Some diseases like diabetes and
mental retardation have genetic origin. So the health of
an individual depends on his genetic constitution.
• Environment: Diseases are caused by changes in
environment like air, water, climate etc. Environment has
a direct influence on the physical, mental and social
well-being of an individual.
• Socio - economic conditions: They include income,
education, nutrition, employment and housing.
What is Fitness?
• Is a general state of health and well-being and, more
specifically, the ability to perform aspects of sports,
occupations and daily activities.
Components of Fitness
1. Cardiorespiratory endurance - typically measured by
how long or fast a person can perform an activity and
how this impacts measurements such as heart rate and
oxygen consumption.
2. Muscular endurance - typically measured by how
many repetitions of an exercise a person can perform.
Common tests involve push-ups and sit ups.
3. Muscular strength - typically measured by how much
weight can be moved in relation to repetitions.
Exercises involving multiple joints and muscle groups
such as squats or bench press are often used.
4. Muscular power - typically measured by how much
force can be generated during a given activity.
Advanced equipment used by bio mechanists are often
needed to measure muscular power.
5. Flexibility - typically measured by how far a muscle
group can be stretched or joint can be moved. The
most common tests involve the hamstrings and
shoulders.
6. Balance - typically measured by how long a particular
position can be held with or without some type of
activity being performed. Simple tests such as standing
on one leg can be used to assess balance. More
advanced tests may involve standing on an unsteady
object while trying to catch a ball.
7. Speed - typically measured by how quickly an
individual can move from one point to another. The 40-
yard dash is often used to assess speed.

TRAINING PRINCIPLES

1. OVERLOAD
• This states that a greater than normal load or intensity
of the body is needed for adaptation or improved
function and fitness to occur.
• The initial response of the body to an overload is
discomfort and fatigue. When the loading stops, the
body undergoes recovery and eventually adapts to this
overload.
2. PROGRESSION
• This referred to a progressive overload and indicates
that overload should not be increased too slowly or
rapidly if fitness is to result.
• Mode: Type or choice of physical activity or exercise
depending on fitness goal(s), skill level, availability and
access to facilities and equipment.
• Frequency: refers to the number of times you exercise
in a given week.
• Intensity: refers to the level of difficulty of an exercise or
workout. Time: refers to the length of exercise session.
3. SPECIFICITY
• This principle indicates that one must identify and train
or overload a specific fitness component in order to
develop it.
4. REVERSIBILITY
• The adaptations from exercise or training are reversible,
that is, a fitness component deteriorates to a level that
is equivalent to one’s level of physical activity.
• Use it or lose it, which means, in order to maintain a
desired level of fitness, an exercise overload must be
imposed on the body systematically and continuously.
5. VARIETY
• Training, is a long-term process, can potentially
become boring or monotonous.
• Hence, there is a need for variety to maintain your
interest or motivation and sustain your participation.
• Variety may be incorporated in an exercise program
through changes in exercise mode.
• Alternate aerobics and resistant training
• Running and Cycling
• Alternate heavy and light workouts
6. INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES
• This principles states that we all have varying abilities
in terms of developing each of the fitness component.
• These differences are grounded on genetics, age, sex,
body composition and size, medical condition and
injuries, among others.
