  9. VOCABULARY • Muscle strength – the most weight you can lift or the most force you can exert at one time. • Muscle endurance – the ability of your muscles to exert a force over time without becoming overly tired. • Flexibility – your ability to move within the range of motion for each joint.

  10. VOCABULARY • Heart & Lung endurance – how effectively your heart and lungs work during exercise and how quickly they return to normal after exercise. • Body composition – the proportion of body fat in comparison with lean tissue, such as muscle and bone.

  11. Body Composition • BMI – Body Mass Index • estimates obesity • (divide body wt. by ht. squared) X 703 • Caliper Test • Tool/gauge • Loose skin • Under Water Weighing • Water/weight displacement • Weigh outside/inside water

  12. Body Composition • BMI – Body Mass Index • (divide body wt. by ht. squared) X 703 • Underweight: Less than 18.5 • Overweight: 25 to 29.9 • Obese: 30 to 39.9 • Severely Obese: 40 or higher

  13. People of all body types, ages, ability levels, and levels of general health can reach their own potential levels of physical fitness! FITNESS

  15. Finding Target Pulse Rate • Every person has a Maximum Heart Rate (MHR), which gradually decreases with age • Over 85% of MHR is dangerous • Under 60% of MHR doesn’t do heart and lungs much good • Between 70% – 80% of MHR gives you the most benefit

  16. FORMULA • Resting Heart Rate = During rest/inactivity • Working Heart Rate = During activity • Maximum Heart Rate = 220 – AGE • Target Heart Rate(Range) = During exercise • MHR X 70% = low range • MHR X 80% = high range

  17. What is your RHR?

  18. Ch. 8 Sec 3 Planning a Fitness Program • What are the best exercises to meet your fitness goals? • Time to exercise? • How often/how hard (intensity) of exercise?

COOL-DOWN • Continue the motions of the exercise at a slower rate • Or different exercises that work the same muscles you used during the workout • If you do not cool-down • Blood can collect in your muscles • Waste from cells can build up in your blood and result in muscle pain (lactic acid) • Result in feeling of sick
