1. Cardio-respiratory Fitness


The word “cardio” means HEART

Sometimes referred as “cardiovascular endurace”
because a person who possesses this type of fitness can
persist physical fitness for a long period of time without
undue fatigue.


The term ‘aerobic fitness” has been used as a synonym
for cardiovascular fitness because of aerobic capacity is
considered to be best indicator of cardiovascular
fitness.
Health Related Components
1. Cardio-respiratory Fitness

Requirement for a good cardiovascular fitness:

1. A fit heart muscle

2. A fit vascular system
3. A fit respiratory system and fit blood
4. Fit muscle tissue capable of using oxygen
Health Related Components

The Major System of the Body
•
The human body is a complex machine
that transforms nutrients to energy in
order to perform work. It is made up of
different systems that work together to
accomplish this task. Of this system muscular
and skeletal systems are given more emphasis
as they are very significant in the production of
motions which is most necessary in the
development of physical fitness.
The Major System of the Body
1. CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM

Components Functions:
•
distributes oxygen and nutrients to
cells,
•
carries carbon dioxide and waste
away from cells,
•
helps maintain the acid-base
balance of the body,
•
protects against diseases,
•
prevents hemorrhage by forming
blood clots,
•
helps regulate body temperature.
The Major System of the Body
2. DIGESTIVE SYSTEM
Components Function:
Performs the
•

physical and
chemical breakdown
of food
Absorption of
•

nutrients for use by

cells
Helps eliminate solid
•

and other waste.

The Major System of the Body
3. ENDOCRINE SYSTEM
Components Function:
•
Regulates body
activities
through
hormones,
chemicals
transported in
the blood to
various target
organs of the
body.
 The Major System of the Body
Components:
4. INTEGUMENTARY
SYSTEM
•
The skin and the structures
derived from it
•
(hair, nails, sweat and oil glands)

Function:
•
Helps regulate body temperature
•
Protects the body
•
Eliminates some wastes
•
Helps produce vitamin D
•
Monitor certain stimuli such as
changes in temperature and
pressure
The Major System of the Body
5. LUMPHATIC AND IMMUNE SYSTEM
Components
Function:
•
Returns proteins and plasma
(liquid portion of blood) to the
cardio-vascular system
•
Transports fats from the gastro-
intestinal tract to the
cardiovascular system
•
Serves as a site of maturation and
proliferation of certain white
blood cells
•
Helps protect against disease
through the production of
proteins called “antibodies”, as
well as other responses.

Components

Function:
•
Powers movement of
the body such as
walking and throwing
ball
•
Stabilizes body
positions (posture)
•
Generates heat
The Major System of the Body
7. NERVOUS SYSTEM

Components
Function:
•
Regulates body activities
through action potentials
(nerve impulses) by
detecting changes in the
internal and external
environments
•
Interpreting the changes
•
Responding to the changes
by inducing muscular
contractions or glandular
secretions
The Major System of the Body
8. REPRODUCTIVE SYSTEM

Components
