A _______ can respond effectively to normal life situations, such as raking leaves at home, stocking shelves at a part-time job, and marching in the band at school.
physically fit
It is the exercise to availability of oxygen due to the physical activity in other words ________ involves fitness relates to the ability of the circulatory and respiratory systems to supply oxygen during sustained physical activity. It is also referred to as cardiovascular endurance, aerobic fitness and cardio-respiratory fitness.
cardiovascular/aerobic exercise
is an intense exercise that requires the body to use other sources of energy besides oxygen to fuel the muscles. It promotes strength, speed, power, and muscle mass.
Anaerobic exercise
is the components of physical fitness and this joint ______ is a health-related component of physical fitness that refers to the range of motion available at a joint, such as your knees or shoulders
flexibility
involves doing exercise that strengthen the muscles that keeps you upright. These exercises can improve stability and help preventing unwanted falls.
balance
FITT meaning

The muscular system contains more than _____ muscles that work together to enable the full functioning of the body.
600
Move from place to place, _____ of the body parts, breathing, circulation, feeding, digestion, defecation, urination, and childbirth.
movement
muscles that resist the pull of gravity and prevent us from falling
antigravity muscles
maintain posture by preventing unwanted movements
stability
a characteristic of the muscle, ability to respond to stimulus
excitability
a characteristic of the muscle, ability to contract
contractability
a characteristic of the muscle, ability to stretched without tearing
extensibility
a characteristic of the muscle, ability to return to its normal shape
elasticity
refers to the idea that there are three generalized body compositions that people are predetermined to have. Dr. William Herbert Sheldon back in the early 1940s, naming the three _____ endomorph, mesomorph, and ectomorph
body types or somatypes
-A pear-shaped body -A rounded head -Wide hips and shoulders -Wider front to back rather than side to side -Typically has short arms and legs -A lot of fat on the body, upper arms and thighs
endomorph
-Medium build, rectangular/wedge body shape-Wide broad shoulders-Fairly lean with a hard body-Can gain muscle easily-Are usually strong-Muscled arms and legs
Mesomorph
-Hard to gain muscle (known as a “hard gainer”)-Slender frame-Narrow shoulders and hips-Narrow chest and abdomen-Small bone structure-Very fast metabolism
ectomorph
Sports Benefits Of Ectomorphs
Light frame suited for aerobic activity
Smaller body surface suitable for endurance activity
Better thermo regulation for endurance based sports
Sports Benefits Of Mesomorphs
Can sustain low body fat levels
Respond well to cardio and resistance training
All muscle groups can be used to derive positive training adoption
Sports Benefits Of Endomorph
Bulk provide power
Large lung capacity
Increase muscle mass better than ecto
are sugar molecules. Provide a ready source of energy for the body.
carbohydrates
are large, complex molecules that play many critical roles in the body. They do most of the work in cells and are required for the structure, function, and regulation of the body’s tissues and organs
proteins
a source of essential fatty acids, which the body cannot make itself. Fat helps the body absorb vitamin A, vitamin D and vitamin E. These vitamins are fat-soluble, which means they can only be absorbed with the help of this.
fats
