Health-Related Components of Physical Fitness and Incorporating Personal Fitness

There are five health-related components:  Carido-Respiratory or Cardiovascular Endurance, Muscle Strength, Muscle Endurance, Flexibility, and Body Composition. skill related components of fitness

1. Cardiovascular Endurance (CE) - the ability of the body to sustain aerobic activities for extended periods (oxygen utilization) skill related components of fitness
2. Muscle Strength (MS) - the ability of muscle groups to contract and support an given amount of weight
3. Muscle Endurance (ME)- the ability of muscle groups to contract continually over a period of time and support a given weight  skill related components of fitness
4. Flexibility (F) - the ability of the muscle group to stretch and bend
5. Body Composition (BC) - an essential measure of health and fitness.  The most important aspects of BC are body fat percentage and ratio of body fat to muscle.  Here's a little tid-bit; if you put more calories in your body than what you burn, you will gain weight.

Physical activity can help reduce certain health risks such as:  cholesterol levels, blood pressure, stress-related disorders, heart disease, and weight and obesity disorders just to name a few.  Here is a list of physical activities that may help reduce some of the above health risk mentioned.
 1.      Aerobic Dance:skill related components of fitness

Health-related components of fitness = cardio-respiratory, body composition.

Skill-related components of fitness = agility, coordination.

2.      Bicycling:skill related components of fitness

Health-related components of fitness = cardio-respiratory, muscle strength, muscle endurance, and body composition.

Skill-related components of fitness = balance.skill related components of fitness

3.      Calisthenics:

Health-related components of fitness = cardio-respiratory, muscle strength, muscle endurance, flexibility, and body composition.

Skill-related components of fitness = agility.

4.      Circuit Training  skill related components of fitness

Health-related components of fitness = cardio-respiratory, muscle strength, muscle endurance, and body composition.

Skill-related components of fitness = power.

5.      Jogging/Running:skill related components of fitness

Health-related components of fitness = cardio-respiratory and body composition.

6.      Skating:

7.      Swimming/Water Exercise:

Health-related components of fitness = cardio-respiratory, muscle strength, muscle endurance, flexibility, and body composition.

Skill-related components of fitness = agility and coordination.

8.      Walking (brisk):skill related components of fitness

Health-related components of fitness = cardio-respiratory and body composition.

9.      Rope Jumping:

Health-related components of fitness = cardio-respiratory and body composition.

Skill-related components of fitness = agility, coordination, and reaction time.

This is just a small list.  There are probably many more activities that can be performed to help reduce health risks.  I suggest adding these to your physical activity toolbox.
