Fitness Components Yr 8 PE

Component	Definition
Speed	The rate of motion
Agility	The ability to change direction rapidly and accurately.
*Muscular endurance*	The ability of a muscle or group of muscles to sustain repeated contractions against a resistance for an extended period of time.
*Anaerobic capacity*	The total amount of energy obtainable from the anaerobic energy systems (the combined capacity of the ATP-PCr system and anaerobic glycolysis system).
*Muscular strength*	The muscle’s ability to generate force against an object in one maximal effort.
*Anaerobic power*	The maximum amount of energy that can be generated by the anaerobic energy systems per unit of time. Rate of energy production anaerobically.
*Muscular power*	The ability of a muscle or muscle group to exert a maximum amount of force in the shortest period of time.
*Dynamic Flexibility*	The capacity of a joint to move through its full range of motion and reflects the ability of the muscles and connective tissue to stretch.- Whilst moving
*Static Flexibility*	The capacity of a joint to move through its full range of motion and reflects the ability of the muscles and connective tissue to stretch.-
*Body Composition*	The makeup of lean body mass and fat mass in the body.
*Coordination*	The ability to link a series of muscular movements so they appear well controlled and efficiently executed
*Balance*	The ability to remain in a state of equilibrium while performing a task
*Aerobic Capacity*	The total amount of energy obtainable from the aerobic energy system (i.e. energy produced in the presence of oxygen).
*Reaction Time*	The time it takes the body to react to an external stimulus.

The capacity of a joint to move through its full range of motion and reflects the ability of the muscles and connective tissue to stretch.- Whilst moving

Dynamic involves moving the joint in its full range. Static holding a joint in one postion.

The capacity of a joint to move through its full range of motion and reflects the ability of the muscles and connective tissue to stretch.-

Static Flexibility relates to holding a joint in a stretched position.

The total amount of energy obtainable from the aerobic energy system (i.e. energy produced in the presence of oxygen).

Aerobic Power is the fastest rate our aerobic system can produce energy to resynthesise ATP
