1. INTRODUCTION TO EXERCISE

2. What is Exercise?

3. What is Exercise? Exercise is the training of the body to improve its function and enhance its fitness.

4. HISTORICAL VIEW OF EXERCISE

5. HISTORICAL VIEW OF EXERCISE Pre-Historic Period Hominids—human beings and their immediate ancestors—have existed on Earth for at least two million years. For more than 99 percent of that time, hominids lived a nomadic existence and survived by hunting and gathering food.

6. HISTORICAL VIEW OF EXERCISE Agricultural Period As civilization developed, nomadic hunting and gathering societies gave way to agricultural ones in which people grew their own food and domesticated animals.

7. HISTORICAL VIEW OF EXERCISE Industrial Period The industrial period began during the mid-18th century. In the cities relatively more individuals walked to work, climbed stairs, and had more physically demanding jobs than do most people today.

8. HISTORICAL VIEW OF EXERCISE Technologial Period The post-World War II period, a period characterized by rapid growth in energy-saving devices, both in the home and at the workplace. Jogging, racket sports, cycling, and other active recreational pursuits have become much more common. In a sense this is simply humankind’s returning to the more active lifestyle of its distant ancestors.

12. AIMS OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION The aim of physical education is to develop through natural total-body activities, primarily on the play level, the physically, mentally, and socially integrated and effective individual.

13. EXERCISE VARIABLES AND PRINCIPLES Specificity Overload Progression Reversibility Recovery Variety Adaptation Individuality

14. FITT PRINCIPLE Frequency: refers to the frequency of exercise undertaken or how often you exercise. Intensity: refers to the intensity of exercise undertaken or how hard you exercise.

15. FITT PRINCIPLE Time: refers to the time you spend exercising or how long you exercise for. Type: refers to the type of exercise undertaken or what kind of exercise you do.

16. SAMPLE FITT PROGRAM

17. PHASES OF EXERCISE Warm-up Preparing your body for the activity of the conditioning part of your workout. Conditioning (or the activity/exercise itself) It is when you perform the exercise that produces fitness benefits: calorie burning, building endurance, or muscle strengthening. Cooldown Cool down is bringing the body back to its relaxed state gradually from a super active state.

18. 2 TYPES OF STRETCHING Dynamic stretching is a strategy used to improve mobility while moving through a range-of- motion, often in a manner that looks like the activity or sport that is going to be performed. Static stretching is holding a stretch without movement, usually only at the end-range of a muscle.

19. MYTHS AND FACTS ABOUT EXERCISE 1. Stretching Before a Workout While this myth is partially rooted in truth, it’s the type of stretching you want to pay attention to when it comes to injury prevention. It’s recommended to warm up through light cardio and “dynamic” stretches related to the activity you’re about to do, so your muscles are prepared.

20. MYTHS AND FACTS ABOUT EXERCISE 2. Longer Workouts Are More Meaningful Working out harder doesn’t always mean you’re working out smarter. Spending hours on the treadmill or lifting weights can cause muscle strain or an overuse injury. This also doesn’t factor in poor form or insufficient equipment, which could lead to injury before you reach your goal. As an alternative, break up your routine between cardio, mobility and resistance exercises for variety and to work on all muscle groups equally.

21. MYTHS AND FACTS ABOUT EXERCISE 3 . Eat More Protein, Exclude Fat and Carbs Diets that zero in one protein while reducing carbohydrates and fats are not as effective as you may think. While you don’t want to primarily consume refined carbohydrates and saturated fats, protein is not a solution for everything – nor a promise for weight loss. In fact, consuming excess amounts of protein can increase your risk for heart disease and obesity.

22. MYTHS AND FACTS ABOUT EXERCISE 4. No Pain, No Gain Pain and soreness should not be used to measure whether you’ve had an effective workout. On one hand, it can indicate delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). On the other, it could be a sign your muscle tissue has torn. Workouts with repeat movements can actually worsen the tear, resulting in a more serious injury with time.

23. MYTHS AND FACTS ABOUT EXERCISE 5. More Sweat Equals a Better Workout Although sweat will likely drip during an intense workout, other factors need to be considered – for instance, the conditions in which you’re exercising. Sweat occurs in an effort to regulate your body’s core temperature. While it does indicate your body is burning more calories, this process will eventually stop and continuing to push may lead to fatigue.

24. MYTHS AND FACTS ABOUT EXERCISE 7. Detoxing to Lose Weight Over the years, this fitness myth has fueled many juice cleanses. While intermittent fasting has recently received greater attention, removing solid foods from your diet can affect your metabolism long term. Especially as you’re working out with specific fitness goals in mind, this can slow down your metabolism, causing your weight to plateau and your body to hold on to fat.
