What Fitness Is All About!
Physical fitness is the ability to function
effectively in physical work, training,
and other activities and still have
enough energy left over to handle any
emergencies which may arise.
The components of physical fitness
are as follows:
• Cardiorespiratory (CR) endurancethe
efficiency with which the
body delivers oxygen and nutrients
needed for muscular activity and
transports waste products from the
cells.

• Muscular strength - the greatest
amount of force a muscle or muscle
group can exert in a single effort.
• Muscular endurance - the ability of
a muscle or muscle group to perform
repeated movements with a
sub-maximal force for extended
periods of times.
• Flexibility-the ability to move the
joints (for example, elbow, knee) or
any group of joints through an
entire, normal range of motion.
• Body composition-the amount of
body fat a person has in comparison
to his total body mass.
Improving the first three components
of fitness listed above will have
a positive impact on body composition
and will result in less fat. Excessive
body fat detracts from the other fitness
components, reduces performance,
detracts from appearance, and
negatively affects one’s health.
Factors such as speed, agility, muscle
power, eye-hand coordination, and
eye-foot coordination are classified as
components of “motor” fitness.
