Summary Introduction

To identify: The sequence of steps in the procedures for evaluating cardiorespiratory fitness.

Introduction: The cardiovascular system is also known as the circulatory system that allows the blood to flow throughout the body and transports nutrients, gases, and other essential enzymes in and out of the cells. During respiration, oxygen is inhaled from the environment and transported to individual cells of the body and carbon dioxide produced by the cell during cellular respiration is exhaled from the body to the environment. Physical activity is defined as the movement of the body, which uses energy.
