IMPROVING HEALTH AND
FITNESS
Components of fitnessStarter- explain how skill and health related
fitness differ.
Skill and health related fitness


Skill related fitness components are
neuromuscular and focus on our
ability to perform skills
Whilst health related fitness
describes the physiological
components that help an individual
cope with everyday life.
Choose 2 different sports from the list below,
then rate the 10 components of fitness needed

For your survey use the information you have been
given on page 17 to work out how many calories you
used and your other subject used in a day.
Choose your rough body weight
110lb- 8stone
125lb- 9 stone
150lb- 11 stone
175lb- 13 stone
200lb- 14 ½ stone
Given that your calorie input is approx 1940 for women
and 2550 for men is your activity level healthy or
unhealthy?
Would you put on or lose weight?

Or stamina is the ability to sustain stressful physical
exertion for a long period of time
Depends onEfficient breathing
Efficiency of blood taking up the O2 in the lungs
Efficiency of the CV system in transporting O2
throughout the body
Questions- what different test can be used?
What type of training will improve your aerobic
capacity?
Place the following sports in order of expected VO2Max
scores- rower, 200m swimmer, cross country skier.
400m runner, 10,000m runner
Strength






The ability to overcome a resistance and can
explosive, static or dynamic.
Explosive-(or POWER) rapid contraction of
muscle fibres units to achieve maximum forcesporting eg?
Static - holding a body part in a stationary
position when it is contracting eg?
Dynamic- the repeated contraction of the same
muscle group eg?
Question- what test could you use?
What type of training would improve strength?
Speed




The rate at which the body is
moved from one place to another.
Speed can be your whole body or
parts of your body- give examples
of both
How might you test speed?
What is SAQ training? What does it
involve?
Muscular endurance




Is the repeated contraction and relaxation
of a muscle group over a prolonged
period of time.
This would involve the performer working
at a medium to high intensity for approx
5-6 mins.
Eg?
How might you test your muscular
endurance in your arms / stomach
muscles?
Flexibility





The range of movement possible at a
joint.
Important for al sports as it prevents
injuries and helps us perform skills more
successfully.
The two types are static and dynamicgive examples of each.
How might you test flexibility?
How would you improve your flexibility?
Agility





The ability to change direction at speed.
Seen as a combination of speed and
coordination.
Give 3 sporting examples with reasons
why it is important.
What is the test used?
How would you improve agility through
training?
Balance



Is maintaining the bodies
equilibrium or maintaining your
centre of mass over the base of
support.
Give examples of static and
dynamic balance.
How would you test balance?
Coordination





A balanced and effective interaction of the
movement or body actions.
Combines your motor skills and nervous
system.
Give examples of sports when
coordination is vital.
How would you build up a child’s coordination?
How could you tests this aspect of
fitness?
Reaction time





The time taken between a stimulus and
response.
In what sports is RT very important?
It is affected by how quick an individual
can process information and the speed of
conduction of the impulse through the
nerves.
It is possible to improve RT through
practice.
How might you test RT?

your health.
Use your own examples to support your
notes.
