 What are the health-related and skill-related fitness insports/physical activities?

Health-related physical fitness is aerobic capacity, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility, and
body composition. Chapter 1 contains more information about health-related fitness.

Skill-related physical fitness is sometimes called sports fitness or motor fitness. Skill-related physical
fitness is called such because people who possess them find it easy to achieve high levels of
performance in motor skills. The components of skill-related physical fitness are agility, balance,
coordination, power, reaction time, and speed.

One of the factors that influence skill-related performance is heredity; however, most fitness skills can
be developed and improved upon. Different sports skills can be used in setting your FITT-VP goals to
achieve your health-related fitness. The FITT-VP Principle can be used as a starting point for one's sports
activity/ies to ensure fitness improvements,

 Technical and Tactical Skills in Playing Sports

In playing any sport, learning and developing skills help athletes improve in the
game. These skills involve physical training and game strategies.

Technical Skills

These are basic or fundamental skills needed to play the game. These are required
in all sports. They advance in degrees or levels as a player practices or gets used
to doing the skills. Examples of these are dribbling, passing, and shooting in
basketball and ball reception, attacking/spiking, and setting in volleyball.
 Tactical Skills

These are decision-making skills or strategies used in situations during

the game. These may vary depending on the trainer or coach, the skill
level of an athlete, or the strength and weakness of the opposing team.
A basic example is the use of quick pass and movement against a taller
but slower opponent in basketball. The use of tactical decisions during a
game is called game sense.
In planning a training/practice, an individual must consider the following:

1. preparation/planning

*Date, time, and duration of training/practice

*Objectives/goals
*Equipment needed during training/ practice

2. Training Proper

*Warm-up/stretching
*Teaching new skills/practicing previously taught skills
*Scrimmage/practice game
*Cooldown and assessment
 "KEEP THIS IN MIND!"
Five Steps in Teaching Tactical Skills:

*Distinguishing the important decisions

*Establishing essential knowledge for athletes
