Lesson 1

Health- and Skill-related

Components of Fitness
Physical Fitness
• It is a person’s ability to perform
physical activities.
• It is capacity to carry out the day’s
activities without undue fatigue
including activities required for work
at home and in the workplace.
Physical Fitness
 Physical fitness has components that
are measurable. Each component will
tell you your physical strength and
weaknesses.

Physical Fitness
Health-related Components
• Improve over-all body
condition and well-being.
• It help the body to perform
more efficiently.
Skill-related Components
• Consists of components
that have a relationship
with learning motor-skills
quickly, and the ability to
achieve a high level of
performance in game.
Health-related Components
•Cardiorespiratory Endurance
•Muscular Endurance
•Muscular Strength
•Body Composition
•Flexibility
Cardiorespiratory Endurance
• It pertains to the ability of the
heart, lungs, and blood vessels
to supply the oxygen needed
by the body.
• walking, jogging, swimming
Muscular Endurance
• refers to the ability to sustain a level of
muscle tension. This important in
preventing injury and in maintaining
good posture.
•Push-ups
Muscular Strength
• It is the force muscle produces in a single
effort.
•Good strength enables performance of
daily activities efficiently with less effort.
• bench press, squats, pull-ups, lunges.
Body Composition
• refers to the proportion of lean body
mass to the level of body fat.
•Body Mass Index - a measure of a body
fat based on the height and weight of a
person, and is used to determine
whether a person has a healthy weight.
Flexibility
• the ability to flex muscles and move
joints freely. Development of long
muscles allows flexibility which depend
on the stretching of muscles.
• static streching
Skill-related Components
•Agility
•Speed
•Reaction time
•Coordination
•Balance
•Power
AGILITY
• The ability of the body to
change direction quickly.
• badminton, basketball,
and table tennis.
SPEED
• The ability to move
quickly from one point
to another in a straight
line.
REACTION TIME
• Amount of time it
takes to get moving.
COORDINATION
• Integration with hand and/or foot
movements to produced smooth, quick,
and efficiently controlled movement.
BALANCE
• The ability to maintain an
upright posture while keeping
still or moving.
POWER
• The ability to release maximum force
quickly. It is a combination of speed and
strength.

What are the two major components of
Physical fitness?

1. Health-related components
2. Skill-related components
Health-related components consists of
the following components: (Give one)

•Cardiorespiratory •Muscular Strength

Endurance •Body Composition
•Muscular •Flexibility
Endurance
Skill-related components consists of the
following components: (Give one)

•Agility •Coordination
•Speed •Balance
•Reaction time •Power
It is the relative percentage of body fat
compared to lean body mass?

•Body Composition
This refers to the ability to maintain an
upright posture while keeping still or
moving.
•Balance
This ability of the circulatory system to
supply oxygen to working muscles while
doing exercises.

•Cardiorespiratory
endurance
It is amount of time it takes to get
moving.
•Reaction time
It is the integration with hand /or foot
movements to produce smooth, quick,
and efficiently controlled movements.
•Coordination
