Health is a state of physical, mental and social well-being Fitness is the ability to carry out daily tasks with vigour and alertness

Agility - How effectively and efficiently you can move, change direction and the position of your body Strength - the measure of a human’s exertion of force on physical objects Speed - the ability to move all or part of the body as quickly as possible Reaction time - the speed at which an athlete responds to an external stimulus Power - to exert a maximal amount of force in a short period of time Muscular Endurance - the ability of a muscle or group of muscles to sustain repeated contractions Flexibility - the ability of a joint or series of joints to move through an unrestricted, pain free range of motion Coordination - the ability to select the right muscles at the right time with proper intensity Cardiovascular Endurance - how efficiently your heart, blood vessels and lungs supply oxygen Balance - the ability to control your body while stationary or moving

Allows improvement in performance, evaluation of a performer’s strengths and weaknesses, monitors the effectiveness of training and provides short-term fitness goals

• Respiratory Endurance (stamina) - multi-stage fitness test • Maximum strength - hand grip dynamometer • Muscular endurance - sit-up bleep test • Flexibility static - sit and reach • Speed - 30m sprint • Power - vertical jump • Coordination - wall toss • Reaction time - ruler drop • Balance - stork balance test • Agility - Illinois agility test

Specificity - training should be relevant and appropriate to the sport for which the individual is training - allows the athlete to have a more focused, efficient, effective program which will lead to desired gains Progressive Overload - increasing training stimulus over time to increase the fitness adaptions gradually - allows the athlete to avoid a plateau in order to keep muscles challenged Frequency - how many times you train Intensity - how hard you work during training Time - how long you train for Type - type of excercise you do to avoid injuries Reversibility - fitness improvements returning to pertaining values - allows your body to rest without losing all your fitness Tedium - getting bored whilst training due top constant reparation of the same thing - changing the training method allows for muscular strength to build and prevent reversibility

Aerobic - no oxygen - used in long distance/stamina activities Anaerobic - oxygen - used in short, sharp, fast activities

Endomorph - narrow shoulders, larger, wide hips, higher fat %, short wide bones, slow metabolism Ectomorph - slim body, thin muscles, longer limbs, little muscle mass, tall, high metabolism Mesomorph - average metabolism, wide shoulders, thin waist, narrow hips, easy to gain muscle and change body, low body fat %

Having the right amount of nutrition from different varieties of food to maintain or improve health

Carbohydrates - 1760KJ/100 grams Proteins - 1720KJ/100 grams Fats - 4000KJ/100grams

Excess Post-exercise oxygen Consumption Is the amount of oxygen required to restore the body to normal (Oxygen debt)

Oxygen Deficit is when we use anaerobic energy systems and use no oxygen whereas oxygen debt is when we repay back the oxygen deficit using oxygen to regain back normal exercise
