PE Midterm

Study guide for the midterm

TermDefinition
How many students who leave high school inactive stay inactive? 9 out of 10
What modern technologies have replaced everyday activities Automobile, video games, computer, television, golf carts, drive through car washes, moving sidewalks, etc.
Leading causes of death in the 1900's? Pneumonia, tuberculosis, gastroenteritis, and influenza
Leading cause of death today? Accidents, heart disease, cancer, and stroke
Why is fitness important? The leading cause of death is related to an inactive lifestyle
Is fitness a destination? No it is an ongoing road
What are the barriers to physical activity and lifestyle changes? No time, don't like to sweat, don't know how, exercise is not for me, and it is uncomfortable.
Benefits from exercise Appearance, sleep and concentrate better, improved self esteem and confidence, improved respiration, improved cardiac output, improved muscular strength and endurance, increased bone density, improved body composition, and increase flexibility
muscular strength the amount of force a muscle can exert
muscular endurance the muscles ability to do a repetitive movement many times without getting tired
why is muscular fitness important tasks are easier, better confidence and body image, helps bones/posture/stability, reduces risk of injury, raises your BMR
what is BMR basal metabolic rate-rate at which you burn calories at rest
how do you increase muscular strength working the muscles with near ax resistance and a low number of repetitions-fewer than eight
how do you increase muscular endurance working the muscles using light resistance and a high number of repetitions-more than eight
FITT Principle for muscular strength F-2 to 3 days a week I-60 to 86 % of 1 RM T-3-8 reps 1-3 sets T-free weights, selected equipment, isotonic, and calisthenics
isotonics same weight-resistance doesn't change
ismoetric providing force without any movement
calisthenics body weight exercises
FITT Principle for muscular endurance F-2 to 3 days a week I-20-70 % of 1 RM T-12-20 reps 4-6 sets T-free weights, selected equipment, isometric, isotonics, calisthenics
Principle of Overload lifting more than your muscles are used to buy increasing resistance and repetitions
Principle of Progression as your muscle fitness improves, you will need to increase your reps and resistance
Principle of Specificity work muscles you want to improve
What is cardio respiratory fitness fitness of heart, lungs, blood, and blood vessels
respiratory system lungs, air passages
vascular system blood, blood vessels
heart a fit heart is stronger, and can pump more blood in less amount of time
what happens to the system after lack of exercise and poor nutrition vericose veins, astheroscerlosis, coronary arteries, heart attack
basic facts about the heart muscles, pumps blood and carbon dioxide, best about 70 times pre minute, fit person-heart beats less
Best type of exercise? aerobic excercise
aerobic excercise continuous-20 minutes, repetitive, rythmical, keeps heart rate in target zone
FITT principle for cardio F-minimum of three times a week I-within your target heart rate zone T-minimum 20 minutes T-aerobic exercise
Flexibility ability to move a jonint through full range of motion
Why is flexibility important? reduces risk of injury, reduces muscle soreness, reduces muscle tension, provides good posture, enhances body awareness, increases mental and physical relaxation, and increases ability to perform skilled movement
warm up joint rotation, aerobic activity, increased core temperature
activity dynamic stretching
cool down slow breathing and heart rate, static stretching
types of stretching static, dynamic
muscles that need the most stretching pectorals, deltoids, hip flexors, hamstrings, adductors, gastroenemius, erector spinae
hypermobility ability to move certain joints beyond straight
joint laxity when a joint allows a bones to move in a way not intended
arthiritis joint becomes inflamated
FITT Principle F-at least 3 days a week I-stretch to slight discomfort T-each stretch 10-30 second, 10 second rest T-stretch muscles you will be using in the activity
Principle of overload stretching muscles farther than normal
principle of progression as flexibility improves, stretch farther longer, more frequentley
principle of specificity flecibility improves in the joints you stretch
How to maintain continue to stretch
RICE R-rest I-ice C-compression E-elevation
Body Composition all of the tissues together that make up the body fat free mas+fat mass
Why is it importnat to understand having too much or too little fat can both lead to serious health risks
obesity excess of body fat, leading cause of preventable death, realted to 30,000 deaths a year, heart has to work harder, increased chance of stroke, and diabetes
osteoarthiritis degeneration in cartilage of joints
underfat opposite of obesity, too little body fat that causes health risks
aneroxia nervosa still taking reduced calories, but owrking out way more
amenorrhea associated with women with less than 10% bodyfat
why is some fat needed? use of vitamins, insulation, protection around organs, energy source
how do we measure body fat composition skinfold calipers, hydrostatic weighing, impedance machine,
Fat free mas bone, water, blood, tendons, measure in pounds,
BMI used to determine health risks, does not indicate treu body fat percentage, does not take into account bones or muscles
TBW-total body water amount of water expressed in pounds, 50-70% of total body weight
what are some factos that unfluence body composition diet, hereditatry, metabolism, maturation, early fatness, physical activity
activities that influence lifetime activites, aerobic activiters, acitve sports, strength and muscle endurance activities
