Getting in shape means different things to different people. For one person, it might mean the ability to run 5 miles. For another, it might mean the ability to lift 150 pounds or to do the splits. However, fitness is not limited to a physical skill here or there. Fitness encompasses your whole body and has five components, or parts which are: Cardiorespiratory Endurance, Muscular Strength, Muscular Endurance, Flexibility and Body Composition. Fitness means maintaining healthy levels for each component. When all Five Components of Fitness are healthy, it helps you live an active and productive life.

Cardiorespiratory Endurance – Cardiorespiratory endurance is the ability of the heart, blood, blood vessels and lungs to supply enough oxygen and necessary fuel to the muscles during long periods of physical activity. “Cardio” refers to the heart and “respiratory” refers to breathing. The word “endurance” means being able to keep going even when it is hard. Therefore, cardiorespiratory endurance means your heart and lungs can supply oxygen to your muscles even when you are exercising hard for a long time.

How to Improve Your Cardiorespiratory Endurance Since your heart and lungs are muscles, certain exercises build their ability to work harder and longer. The best kind of cardiorespiratory endurance training is aerobic activity such as running, skating, swimming, and vigorous walking and dancing. “Aero” means air and “obic” comes from “bios,” which means life. Aerobic (air life) activities force your body to use a large amount of oxygen for a long period.

Cardiorespiratory Endurance and Your Health As cardiorespiratory endurance training improves the function of your heart and lungs, it also improves your general health. Your heart and lungs become more efficient at filling your blood with oxygen and circulating your blood throughout your body. This efficiency reduces many of the effects caused by risk factors such as smoking, obesity, drug and alcohol abuse, heredity and age. These risk factors are associated with heart disease, type II diabetes, heart attacks and strokes.

Cardiorespiratory Endurance and Your Performance With aerobic activities, your lungs improve in their ability to take in oxygen. In addition, your heart becomes stronger and able to pump more oxygen-full blood to your muscles with each beat. The result is that your heart beats at a slower rate and circulates the same amount of blood.

Your heart and lungs move oxygen and necessary fuel to your muscles using your blood and blood vessels. The better your heart and lungs function, the better your performance is in physical activities; you can keep going at a fast rate. This enables you to work, exercise and play harder, stronger, and longer without getting tired.

For example, what would happen if you were a soccer player and you were so tired that you started gasping for air half way through the match? You would have to sit on the bench until you could play again. However, cardiorespiratory endurance would keep you in the game. Your heart and lungs would work efficiently and your body would get the oxygen and fuel it needs to last the entire game.

Cardiorespiratory Endurance and Your Body Composition Cardiorespiratory endurance training also improves your appearance. It tones your body and burns fat, which improves your body composition.

Body Composition is the combination of fat-free mass and fat mass in your body. As your personal appearance improves, it can build your sense of well-being and positive self-image.

Muscular Strength – Muscular strength is the ability of a muscle or muscles to push or pull with total force. Increasing your muscular strength allows you to lift, push, or pull with more force. Strength is always a benefit in any athletic situation but it is also important when your car has a flat tire, the door is stuck, or when you need to open the pickle jar. Muscular strength exercises are performed with high resistance and can only be performed for a short time. Muscular strength exercises can typically only be performed for 8 or less repetitions.

Muscular Endurance – Muscular endurance is the ability of a muscle or muscles to repeat a movement many times or hold a position without stopping to rest. Improving your muscular endurance allows you to increase your physical activity. When you increase your muscular endurance , you can do more physical work because you can move faster and longer. Repetition is the key. Muscular endurance exercises are performed with lighter resistance than muscular strength exercises. This allows you to perform more repetitions. Typically, muscular endurance exercises can be performed 12 or more times.

The Relationship between Muscular Strength and Muscular Endurance Muscular strength comes before muscular endurance. For example, before a bricklayer can stack hundreds of bricks a day, he/she must have the muscular strength to lift the first brick. Once he/she has the initial strength to lift the first brick, the bricklayer can begin to build muscular endurance by repetition.

The old adage, “If you do not use them you lose them”, is true about your muscles. Your muscles react positively to strenuous activity and negatively to inactivity. When your body is inactive, a large percentage of strength is lost over time. Building muscle is like putting money in the bank: it creates independence in later years.

One of the best ways to build muscular strength and muscular endurance is through resistance activities that place an additional force against the muscle or muscle group. Resistance training involves activities that place an additional force against a muscle or muscle group. Examples of resistance training include weight training, push-ups and crunches.

Muscular Strength/Muscular Endurance and Bone Density As your body ages, your bone density (bone strength) tends to decrease. This can lead to weak bones that break easily and to osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a disease of the bones that causes loss of bone density. As a result, bones deteriorate and become weak, leading to an increased risk of bone fractures. Building muscular strength and muscular endurance through resistance training, along with an active lifestyle, maintain and improve bone density.

Muscular Strength/Muscular Endurance and Performance Developing your muscular strength and muscular endurance enhances your physical performance. As muscles become stronger, physical performance is improved. Improving your muscular strength and muscular endurance gives your body the ability to work, exercise or play more often with more power and for longer periods.

Body Composition – Body composition is the combination of fat-free mass and fat mass. It includes everything in your body (fat, bones, muscles, organs and water). You need healthy levels of fat mass to insulate and protect your organs and absorb vitamins. You also need fat for nerve conduction. Your body uses fats an energy source too.

Having too much or too little fat mass can become a health risk. It lowers performance and detracts from appearance. A healthy range of fat mass for men is 10%-20%. A healthy range of fat mass for women is 15%-25%. Having a healthy body composition will reduce your risk of heart disease, type II diabetes, high blood pressure, strokes, certain types of cancer and obesity

Body composition is affected by two factors: the number of calories eaten (energy in) and the amount of activity performed and calories burned (energy out). Both are controllable. A combined effort of eating a healthy diet (energy in) and increasing physical activity (energy out) is the best approach to maintaining a healthy body composition.

Your body composition and appearance also improve as you develop muscular strength and muscular endurance. Resistance training helps control your body composition by increasing muscle mass, (fat-free mass). Your muscles act as tiny furnaces that burn fat. The more muscle your body has, the more calories it will burn.

Flexibility – Flexibility refers to a muscle’s ability to move a joint through a full range of motion. As your body ages, your muscles, tendons and ligaments will tend to stiffen and become less flexible. If your shoulder muscles stiffen, it will hinder your ability to throw because your arm will not move through the entire motion. Staying flexible is crucial for health and performance. Improving flexibility decreases your risk of injury, prevents post-exercise pain and helps relieve the effects of emotional tension.

You can increase your flexibility with stretching exercises. Methods that are safe and effective areDynamic and Static Stretches. Dynamic Stretches are stretching exercises that are performed while in motion. They move parts of your body continuously while gradually increasing your reach, speed of movement or both. Dynamic stretches take you gently to the limits of your range of motion. Static Stretches stretch a muscle to the point of mild discomfort by holding it in a maximal stretch for an extended period. You can perform these stretches as part of the warm-up and/or cool-down phase of a fitness program or as a separate flexibility program.

Objective: Students will explain how walking and running improve cardiorespiratory endurance.

Equipment:• Cones• Whiteboard or Chalkboard

CCSS:SL. 1,6 Gr 6,7,8L. 1,6 Gr 6,7,8

Explanation:Physical performance will be enhanced by cardiorespiratory endurance training. The heart is a muscle. Like any muscle as the heart becomes stronger it is able to pump more blood with each beat, which means the heart can beat at a slower rate and circulate the same amount of blood. This increased efficiency enables a person to work, exercise or play more often, more vigorously and for longer periods of time without becoming tired. Directions:1. Line students up. Instruct them that their goal is to walk laps for a

designated time period. Explain that each student needs to keep track of their own laps.

2. Set the time and start the activity.3. As a motivator, encourage students.4. When finished, have the students check their heart rate and talk about how

they feel (heart rate, temperature and breathing) 5. Line students up and instruct them that they need to jog at a pace they can

maintain for a designated time.6. Repeat steps 2-4.7. Ask reflective questions.

Assessment Ideas:• Teacher Question and Answer (While students are in a group or as a

debrief)• How many people got more laps when jogging compared to walking? • Why were you able to get more laps when jogging compared to

walking? • What physical changes took place when jogging compared to

walking?• How long could you have walked? Please explain?• How long could you have jogged? Please explain?• What would happen if you were to run at full speed?• What results will you feel and see if you do this activity three times a

week for six weeks?

Level: Intermediate

Objective: Students will explain how heart rate is affected by performing different activities.

Equipment:• Heart Rate Monitors (optional)• Stopwatch or Timed Music• Cardiorespiratory Graphing Worksheets• Pencils

CCSS:RI. 4,7 Gr 6RST. 3,4,7 Gr 6,7,8SL. 1,4,6 Gr 6,7,8L. 1,2,6 Gr 6,7,8W. 1,4,7 Gr 6,7,8WHST. 1,4 Gr 6,7,8

Explanation:When a person performs activities such as jogging, biking or swimming that increase their heart rate for an extended period of time, cardiorespiratory endurance will be improved. Using more muscles during movement or increasing the intensity of the movement will increase the heart rate. A person will notice that they can run, bike or swim for a longer period of time without getting as tired when cardiorespiratory endurance is improved.

Directions:1. Have students pick up a Cardiorespiratory Graphing worksheet and

pencil.2. Lead the students through each activity listed on the Cardiorespiratory

Graphing worksheet for one minute using a stopwatch or timed music. 3. Stop after each activity to have the students take their pulse (or look

at heart rate monitor) and graph their heart rate on the worksheet.4. Continue for each activity.

Assessment Ideas:• At the conclusion of the activity, have students answer questions on

graphing worksheet and share their answers.
