Due Date: Wednesday, October 23rd
You will have two weeks to complete this blog and turn it in to me. Below are
the ten general skills of physical fitness. The body is a dynamic machine and
all of these skills help to make that machine run. It is my contention that you
are only as good as your average across the range of these ten skills and to get
better you need to raise that average. The best way to do that is to find what
you are deficient in and make that better.
For this weeks’ blog I
want you to rate yourself 1 - 10 in each of the skill categories. One being the
worst ten the best. Once you have rated yourself, choose 3 general skills of
fitness and explain 2 ways you can improve on these areas. Be honest in your
rankings, and if you need a second opinion ask me.
1.
Cardiovascular/respiratory endurance – The ability of body systems to gather,
process, and deliver oxygen.
2. Stamina – The ability of body systems to
process, deliver, store and utilize energy.
3. Strength – The ability of
a muscular unit, or combination of muscular units, to apply force.
4.
Flexibility – The ability to maximize the range of motion at a given joint.
5. Power – The ability of a muscular unit, or combination of muscular
units to apply maximum force in minimum time.
6. Speed – The ability to
minimize the time cycle of a repeated movement.
7. Co-ordination – The
ability to combine several distinct movement patterns into a singular distinct
movement.
8. Agility – The ability to minimize transition time from one
movement pattern to another.
9. Balance The ability to control the
placement of the bodies center of gravity in relation to its support base.
10. Accuracy – The ability to control movement in a given direction or
at a given intensity
