a set of attributes or characteristics that people have or achieve that relates to the ability to perform
physical activity
Health- Related Physical Fitness
Specific components of physical fitness that have a relationship with good health.
Skill (Sport) related physical fitness
Components such as agility, balance, coordination, power, speed, and reaction time.
Exercise
A subcategory of physical activity that is planned, structured, repetitive, and purposive in the sense that
improvement or maintenance of one or more components of physical fitness is the objective
Physical Activity
any bodily movement produced by the contraction of skeletal muscles that increases energy expenditure
over a basal level.
What are five measurable components of HRPF:
,1. Cardiorespiratory Fitness - The ability to perform large muscle, dynamic, moderate-to-high intensity
exercise for prolonged periods.
2. Body Composition - Refers to the relative amount or percentage of different types of body tissue
(bone, fat, muscle) that are related to health; most common is body fat percentage.
3. Muscular Strength - Ability to perform activities that require a high level of muscular force.
4. Muscular Endurance - the ability of a muscle group to execute repeated contractions over a period of
time sufficient to cause muscular fatigue OR maintaining a contraction for a prolonged period of time.
5. Flexibility - the ability to move a joint through its complete range of motion.
Muscular Fitness
combination of muscular endurance and muscular strength.
What are some Benefits of Exercise and/or Physical Activity
1. Improvement in Cardiovascular and Respiratory function
2. Reduction in CVD risk factors

based on some external criteria.
2. Normative - based on past performances of groups of individuals with similar characteristics (ie. Age,
sex)
Health-Related Physical Fitness Components
1. cardiorespiratory endurance: ability of the circulatory and respiratory system to supply oxygen during
sustained physical activity
2. body composition: the relative amounts of muscle, fat, bone
3. muscular strength: the ability of muscle to exert force
4. muscular endurance: the ability of muscle to continue to perform without fatigue
5. flexibility: the ROM available at a joint
Skill-Related Physical Fitness Components
1. Agility: the ability to change the position of the body in space with speed and accuracy
2. Coordination: the ability to use the senses, such as sight and hearing, together with body parts in
performing tasks smoothly and accurately
3. Balance: the maintenance of equilibrium while stationary or moving
4. Power: the ability or rate at which one can perform work
