Physical fitness is the capability to function effectively throughout your workday, perform your usual other activities and still have sufficient vigor left over to handle any extra stresses or emergencies which may arise.
The components of physical fitness are:
* Cardiorespiratory (Cr) stamina - the efficiency with which the body delivers oxygen and nutrients needed for muscular operation and transports waste products from the cells.
* Muscular power - the most amount of force a muscle or muscle group can exert in a singular effort.
* Muscular stamina - the capability of a muscle or muscle group to perform repeated movements with a sub-maximal force for extended periods of times.
* Flexibility - the capability to move the joints or any group of joints through an entire, general range of motion.
* Body composition - the ration of body fat a person has in comparison to his or her total body mass.
Improving the first three components of fitness listed above will have a distinct impact on body composition and will consequent in less fat. Immoderate body fat detracts from the other fitness components, reduces performance, detracts from appearance, and negatively affects your health.
Factors such as speed, agility, muscle power, eye-hand coordination, and eye-foot coordination are classified as components of "motor" fitness. These factors most sway your athletic ability. Acceptable training can enhance these factors within the limits of your potential. A sensible weight loss and fitness schedule seeks to enhance or utter all the components of physical and motor fitness through sound, progressive, mission exact physical training.
Principles of Exercise
Adherence to distinct basic practice theory is leading for developing an effective program. The same theory of practice apply to every person at all levels of physical training, from the Olympic-caliber athlete to the weekend jogger.
These basic theory of practice must be followed.
Regularity
To perform a training effect, you must practice often. You should practice each of the first four fitness components at least three times a week. Infrequent practice can do more harm than good. Regularity is also leading in resting, sleeping, and following a sensible diet.
Progression
The intensity (how hard) and/or period (how long) of practice must slowly increase to enhance the level of fitness.
Balance
To be effective, a schedule should comprise activities that address all the fitness components, since overemphasizing any one of them may hurt the others.
Variety
Providing a collection of activities reduces boredom and increases motivation and progress.
Specificity
Training must be geared toward exact goals. For example, citizen become good runners if their training emphasizes running. Although swimming is great exercise, it does not enhance a 2-mile-run time as much as a running schedule does.
Recovery
A hard day of training for a given component of fitness should be followed by an easier training day or rest day for that component and/or muscle group(s) to help permit recovery. Someone else way to allow salvage is to alternate the muscle groups exercised every other day, especially when training for power and/or muscle endurance.
Overload
The work load of each practice session must exceed the general demands placed on the body in order to bring about a training effect.
