Physical Education I and Aerobics: Target Heart Rate

6. THR is usually what percentage of your maximum heart rate?

60-80%

19. Fitness Plan

A plan developed after a self-assessment of the health-related components of fitness

Benefits of Anaerobic Activities

Boosts metabolism, power and energy; reduces risk of disease, joint protection, fights depression, weight maintenance.

11. Fitness

Capability of the body to distribute inhaled oxygen to muscle tissue during increased physical effort.

16. Anaerobic

Cell respiration process that does not utilize oxygen. Short intense activities where the production of energy does not utilize the oxygen.

7. What is the FITT principle? (How Often How Hard)

Frequency (how often) Intensity (how hard) Time (how long) Type (what kind)

5. What Is the Target Heart Rate Formula?

HR = 220 - You're age (in years)

Benefits of Aerobic Activities

Helps you to lose weight by expending calories, reduces your risk of heart attack, stroke, and cancer(colon, prostate, breast), reduces risk of diabetes, improved mood and cognitive function, exercise is effective in treating depression as antidepressant medication, increased bone mass and less osteoporosis, prolongs your life.

8. Overload Principle

Improving fitness by working muscles above normal levels, but below the loads that would cause injury

4. What is the normal heart rate? (Beats)

Normal can be anywhere from 40-100 beats per minute, but typically people who are more fit have a lower resting heart rate.

21. Heart rate

Number of heart beats per minute

2. How do you use your neck to find your heart rate?

Put your fingers on your carotid artery and count the number of heart beats in 1 minute = 60 seconds.

20. Goal

Result or achievement of a task

10. Aerobic Capacity / Cardiorespiratory Endurance

Term for maximal oxygen consumption which provides an indication of aerobic fitness. The body's ability to take in and use oxygen so that muscles can function.

15. Agility

The ability to change the direction quickly and control movement of the whole body

13. Muscular endurance

The ability to contract your muscles repeatedly without excessive fatigue. High repetition and low weight.

Endurance

The ability to sustain an effort over a period of time

14. Aerobic

The heart beats faster than normal to supply your body with the oxygen it needs for continuous activity.

12. Muscular strength

The maximal force that you can exert when you contract your muscles

22. Repetitions

The number of times you do a lift or movement

1. What Is A Target Heart Rate Zone?

The range of heart beats during above normal activity that results in an increase of fitness. This zone is usually between 60 - 80 % of your maximum heart rate.

17. Calorie

The unit for measuring energy produced by food when oxidized in the body 1 pound of body weight is 3,500 calories

3. What is a resting heart rate?

Your heart rate while you have been sitting or lying down.

9. Exercise benefits are:

burns off calories gives you more energy helps you cope with stress tones your muscles helps your heart and lungs work more efficiently
