The Components of Fitness

Their determination, a great athlete will have to work their hardest. Depending on the sport they will need the strength, speed, and stamina to run longer than anyone

Before creating the periodization plan, the demands of the sport must be assessed to determine the physiological and physical loading that is placed

Velocity is how fast you’re moving, when you kick the ball it’s putting Velocity on it. The more force you put on the ball the more speed it has. Soccer players need to get the ball as fast they can, so they need to increase the rate they change their position at.

It is made to target each of the most important aspects including cardiorespiratory fitness, flexibility, speed, strength and endurance.

change every year and oftentimes, the details are not announced until right before each event. Athletes train year-round for a competition that is almost completely a mystery. When they reach the Games, they put their training and mental fortitude to the test and take on a rigorous, broad-ranging test of overall physical capacity. At the close of competition, the Fittest on Earth™ will have clearly distinguished themselves.

(2.1) Explain how his body responds to his physical activities (particularly in relation to musculo-skeletal system, cardiovascular system and respiratory system).

The MAS (Maximal Aerobic Speed) score which is derived from the completion of the multistage fitness test prior to the commencement of the program is used as the basis. Two weeks of the program are dedicated to the development of aerobic fitness since players who have a high level of aerobic fitness is capable of sustaining high level of performance for extended periods, and they are able to recover faster from intense activities such as short distance sprints than those who does not have high level of aerobic fitness (Gabbett, Kelly, & Pezet, 2007). Continuous training, including running, cycling and rowing performed at low to medium intensity are good exercise to develop the aerobic fitness. One to two times of continuous training a week would be sufficient enough to increase fitness for most players (Gabbett, Kelly, & Pezet,

this fitness component is important in touch because you must pass the ball to your team mates, so you can try to get a try at the other end of the field.

First and foremost, I am going to discuss the importance of physics concepts in the game of soccer. To begin, I will start with Newton’s Laws of Motion. Newton’s first law of motion is called the Law of Inertia. It

The three main components that contribute to an athletes health are excerise, nutrition, and recovery. Exercise is important because it builds lean muscle and reduces the risk of injury. Nutrients helps rebuild the muscle after exercise. Recovery after every workout is necessary to repair the muscles. It is an athletes' responsibility to maintain a healthy lifestyle in order to succeed on and off the field.

routine that they stick to so they can achieve their goal of getting physically fit.

During the Train to Train stage (females 11-15, males 12-16), young athletes need to build an aerobic base and consolidate their sport- specific skills. Towards the end of the stage, they need to focus on strength and the anaerobic alactic energy system. Increased training hours are needed at this stage to develop each athlete’s long-term potential.

The American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) is the largest organization of sports that uses scientific research to provide educational information and practical applications of exercise and sports medicine. I compared my personal definition of fitness with the ACSM organization because I found similarities in terms of the idea of fitness and health. This organization has created a Complete Guide to Fitness and Health to educate people about the importance of the components of health and fitness. The ACSM focus on the components of fitness such as aerobic, muscular, flexibility and body composition. My personal definition of fitness is when an individual tries to engage in physical activities to improve his overall health. It involves the

One of the fitness components is cardio endurance (Cardiovascular Endurance). This fitness component relates to when your heart starts to increase in strength. When the heart and lungs supply oxygen to the bloodstream throughout the body. When trying to work on your Cardiovascular Endurance you want to do exercises that increase your heart rate for a long time.

As a sporting coach it is universal to have an understanding of the three main energy systems that underpins the study of exercise and the effect it has on the human body in regards to athletic performance.
