What’s In

READINGS:
BODY MASS INDEX AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
Weight management is a battle for some Filipinos however controlling body weight
has many advantages. Filipinos, these days, have taken on the Western culture of
inordinate admission of fatty food coupled with inactivity which regularly brings
about a general public called "obesiogenic" (an inclination to have a fat populace).
This change towards over bloated physique doesn't happen out of the blue. The
quantity of overweight and hefty Filipinos has effectively developed, as indicated by
the National Nutrition and Health Survey by the FNRI (Food and Nutrition Research
Institute) and DOST (Department of Science and Technology) and it will
undoubtedly add to the advancement of related infections.
BMI is normally utilized on the grounds that it is exceptionally simple to gauge, and
it likewise connects emphatically with the level of body fats. Abundance levels of
muscle to fat ratio add to various health concerns including coronary illness,
hypertension, diabetes and a few malignant growths. Commonly, muscle versus fat
levels are higher as BMI increments. A BMI between 18.5 to 24.9 kg/m2 is viewed
as typical, with a sound body weight. This is on the grounds that BMI inside this
reach is related with the most minimal danger of fostering an ongoing illness or
dying. Individuals delegated overweight have an expanded danger of infection and
passing, and the people who are obese have the most elevated danger of fostering
various illnesses.
Waist Circumference
Individuals have various examples of muscle versus fat appropriation, and
these examples compare to various danger levels for illness. The area of muscle to
fat ratio impacts an individual's health risk. The danger is lower for the people who
have fat disseminated more around the hips and thighs (called gynoid obesity and
normally alluded to as a pear-shaped physique) than for the individuals who convey
fat on the trunk or abdominal area (called android weight, ordinarily called an
appleformed build). Due to the worry with abdominal obesity, midsection
circumference alone can assist with distinguishing whether you are in danger of
health concerns.

Physical Activity and Exercise Defined

NegOr_Q4_PE10_Module4a_v2
3
 Actual work alludes to substantial development created by skeletal muscles.
It requires energy expenditure and produces progressive health advantages. Active
work commonly requires simply low to direct force exertion. Instances of active work
incorporate strolling to and from work, using the stairwell rather than lifts and
elevators, and cultivating, doing family errands, moving and washing the vehicle the
hard way.

Exercise

Is a sort of actual work that requires arranged, organized, and repetitive

bodily movement to improve or keep at least one or more components of actual
wellness. Instances of activity are strolling, running, cycling, heart stimulating
exercise, swimming, and strength preparing etc.. Exercise is an action that requires
a vigorous and intense effort.

Intensity of Exercise

When trying to develop the CR (cardio-respiratory) system, many people

ignore intensity of exercise. For muscles to develop, they have to be overloaded to a
given point. The training stimulus to the biceps muscle, for example, can be
accomplished with arm curl exercises using increasing weights. Likewise, CR is
stimulated by making the heart pump faster for a specified period. Health and CR
fitness benefits result when a person is working between 30 to 85 percent of heart
rate reserve (HRR) combined with an appropriate duration and frequency of training.
Health benefits are achieved when training at a lower exercise intensity, that is,
between 30 to 60 percent of the person’s HRR. Even greater health and
cardioprotective benefits, and higher and faster improvements in CR fitness
(VO2max), however are achieved primarily though vigorous intensity programs (at
an intensity above 60 percent). Recent research indicates that the traditional
equation of 220 – age overpredicts MHR in people 40 years and younger, and
underpredicts MHR in individuals above 40 years old. Instead, we will use 207 as our
constant MHR from birth that decreases by 1 beat per year

READINGS: PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND ACTIVE RECREATION

NegOr_Q4_PE10_Module4a_v2

 In your lesson in Grade 9, Quarter 4, the
term recreation was viewed as exercises
you do during leisure. Leisure is an
unobligated time wherein you are
liberated from any squeezing worry in
studies as well as work.
Recreation might be arranged into two;
active and passive. Passive recreational
activities are those which you spend your
relaxation without applying a lot of your
actual ability, for example, playing board
https://bit.ly/35wcfAd and games, paying attention to music,
perusing, staring at the TV and riding the web or playing PC games.
Active recreational activities, on the other hand, are those that require purposeful
actual endeavors which might go from light to overwhelming powers. These
incorporate strolling, running, using the stairwell, cultivating, doing family errands,
playing sports, swimming, moving, and in any event, climbing or mountaineering.

Without a trace of an arranged exercise program, doing active recreational activities

might assist you with breaking the tedium of a poisonous work area work, awesome
scholastic issues and cerebrum crushing tasks and exploration papers expected in
your classes. Dynamic recreational activities give not simply an open door to you to
appreciate life however a road to improve your wellness. They are not proposed to
replace the scholarly difficulties in school however are prescribed to adjust or kill the
unfavorable impacts of an inactive way of life among understudies. The prior you
make dynamic diversion a wellness propensity, the more possibilities you should
keep up with or work on your wellbeing and prosperity.

Common Injuries Involved In Recreation

Sprains
A sprain is a stretch or tear of a tendon, the band of connective tissues that
joins the finish of one bone with another that is brought by trauma due to injury, for
example, a fall or a hit to the body that takes a joint out of position and, in the most
pessimistic scenario, cracks the supporting tendons. Injuries can go from first degree
(minor) to third degree (absolutely awful). Region of the body generally powerless
against hyper-extends are the lower legs, knees and wrists. Indications of an injury
incorporate changing levels of delicacy or torment, swelling, irritation, expanding,
powerlessness to move an appendage or joint or joint detachment, laxity or
insecurity.

Strains
A strain is a twist, pull or tear of a muscle or ligament - a rope of tissue
interfacing muscle to bone. It is an intense, non-contact injury that outcomes from
overextending or over-withdrawal. Side effects of a strain incorporate torment,
NegOr_Q4_PE10_Module4a_v2
5
muscle fit and loss of solidarity. Then again, it is difficult to differentiate among gentle
and direct strains, serious strains not treated expertly can prompt long-lasting harm
and loss of capacity.

Knee injuries
Knee wounds can go from gentle to extreme. Less extreme would be
tendonitis, patella femoral pressure disorder, iliotibial band condition and bursitis, to
give some examples. The extreme wounds incorporate bone injuries or harm to the
ligament or tendons. Significant wounds are normal to the Anterior Cruciate
Ligament (ACL), Meniscus wounds, Posterior Cruciate Ligament (Pcl), Medial
Collateral Ligament (MCL) and the Lateral Collateral Ligament (LCL).

Fractures
A fracture is a break in the bone that can happen from either a quick, one-time injury
deep down (intense break) or from rehashed pressure deep down over the long run
(stress crack). The most well-known indication of a pressure break is torment at the
site that deteriorates with weight bearing exercises. Delicacy and expanding
regularly go with the aggravation. This is vital for the mentors to perceive and allude
the competitor to the coaches or the group doctors.

Dislocations
Whenever two bones that meet up to frame a joint become isolated, the joint
is portrayed as being disengaged. Physical games like football, ball and lacrosse, as
well as high effect sports that can bring about unnecessary extending or falling,
cause most of separations. A separated joint is a crisis circumstance that requires
clinical medicines.

What are the First Aid Techniques?

First Aid Techniques to Injuries During Recreation

These acronyms shall be remembered when applying first aid to injuries during the
conduct of recreational activities: PRICED and HARM.

Follow the PRICED procedure:

PROTECTION-Remove additional risk or danger in the injured area.
REST-Stop moving the injured area.
ICE-Apply ice to the injured area for 20 minutes every two hours for two days. Then
ice can be applied less frequently after the first two days until the fifth to seventh day.
Instead, either contrast baths or warm compresses will be applied to hasten the
healing process of the damaged tissues.
COMPRESSION-Apply an elastic compression bandage in the injured area
ELEVATION-Raise the injured area above heart level
DIAGNOSIS-Acute injuries should be evaluated by health-care professionals

In the first few days of an injury, remember to avoid HARM:

HEAT - Any kind of heat will speed up the circulation, resulting in more swelling and
longer recovery
NegOr_Q4_PE10_Module4a_v2
6
ALCOHOL - Alcohol can increase swelling, resulting to longer recovery
RUNNING OR OTHER EXCESSIVE EXERCISE - Exercising can cause further
damage to the injured part. Exercise also increases blood flow, resulting to more
swelling
MASSAGE - Massage increases swelling and bleeding into the tissue, prolonging
recovery time
First Aid for Sprains and Strains
Minor sprains and strains can be treated at home using these measures. Start
treatment as soon as possible to reduce swelling and speed up recovery. The less
swelling, the more blood can get to the injured part to start the repair process.
• Apply the PRICED method.
• Do not apply heat during the first two days as this will only increase swelling.
• Use paracetamol for the first day of the injury, since it will reduce pain without
increasing bleeding. Thereafter, ibuprofen (or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory)
or aspirin is a good choice. Don’t give aspirin to a child younger than 16 years.
• Arnica oil works well to reduce swelling.
• Remove rings immediately if the injury is to the hand or fingers.
• After 48 hours, start moving the limb gently, but only enough so as not to cause
pain.
• Gradually increase the range of movement – let pain be your guide.

Strains usually heal in about a week. Sprains may take up to three weeks to heal,
depending on the degree of sprain or strain.

First Aid for Fractures:

• Apply the PRICED method.
• Keep the limb in the position you found it and place soft padding around the broken
bones. Splint the injury with something rigid, such as rolled up newspaper or
magazines, to prevent the bones from shifting. Do not move the broken bones.
Splints must be long enough to extend beyond joints above and below the fracture.
• If there is an open fracture, cover it with a clean gauze pad. Apply pressure to
control bleeding. Do not try to push the bone back into the wound and do not
attempt to clean it.
• Get medical attention immediately. Fractures of the femur and pelvis may cause
severe internal bleeding.
• Do not give the person anything to eat or drink in case surgery is needed.

See a Doctor if:

• You suspect a fracture or dislocation or if you are unsure of the severity of a sprain
or strain.
• You cannot straighten the affected joint or bear weight on it, or if a joint feels
unstable. • The skin over the injury area is broken
• The limb below the injury feels numb or tingling, or is white, pale, or blue in color, or
feels colder compared to the other healthy limb.

NegOr_Q4_PE10_Module4a_v2
7
• The ligaments of the knee are injured. • You injure an area that has been injured
several times before.
• Pain is severe or lasts longer than 24 hours, or if swelling does not subside within
48 hours.
• A sprain or strain does not improve after five to seven days. • Signs of infection
develop.

 What is It

Cheerdance is coined from the words, cheer, and dance. To cheer is to shout
out words or phrases that may help motivate and boost the morale of a playing team
and perform better during a game. Dance, on the other hand, is a physical activity
where one expresses emotions or gestures while performing bodily movements
usually in time with rhythm.

Cheerdancing is rooted from cheerleading.

Cheerleading is the exhibition of a routine, typically overwhelmed by

gymnastic abilities, for example, bounces, tumbling abilities, lifts and throws joined
with yelling of cheers and shouts to lead the group to support a specific group during
a game or sport. It began in the United States. Because of Filipinos' adoration for
moving, they added more dance routines to their cheers and thought of the term
cheerdance wherein it is a routine made out of yells and cheers, gymnastic abilities
(pyramids and throws, stunts, tumbling abilities, arm and hand positions and
bounces), and dance (combination of various dance classes). Today, cheerdancing is
recognized as one of the most terrific occasions in one of the greatest university
games in the country, the UAAP (University Athletic Association of the Philippines).

Additional Activity

These are the fun games that you can do in relation to Cheerdance! Enjoy!
NegOr_Q4_PE10_Module4a_v2
15
 1. Jump Rope Marathon
Jumping rope can build valuable skills that will help in actual cheerleading jumps by
making them higher and giving cheerleaders the ability to throw stunts harder and
thus complete cleaner, stronger back handsprings, or tucks.
2. Leap Frog with a Stretch
Playing leapfrog can be a great way to work on jumping skills. Instead of just hopping
awkwardly over the other cheerleader's back, however, the cheerleader should try to
jump over and do a strong cheer jump at the same time. Be careful when playing this
game and play on soft surfaces and mats to avoid injury.
