C. READINGS II.
Cardiovascular endurance is the ability of the heart and lungs to work together to provide the
needed oxygen and fuel to the body during sustained workloads. Examples would be jogging,
cycling and swimming. The Cooper Run is used most often to test cardiovascular endurance.
Muscular strength is the amount of force a muscle can produce. Examples would be the bench
press, leg press or bicep curl. The push up test is most often used to test muscular strength.
Muscular endurance is the ability of the muscles to perform continuous without fatiguing.
Examples would be cycling, step machines and elliptical machines. The sit up test is most often
used to test muscular endurance.
Flexibility is the ability of each joint to move through the available range of motion for a specific
joint. Examples would be stretching individual muscles or the ability to perform certain
functional movements such as the lunge. The sit and reach test is most often used to test
flexibility.
Body composition is the amount of fat mass compared to lean muscle mass, bone and organs.
This can be measured using underwater weighing, Skinfold readings, and bioelectrical
impedance. Underwater weighing is considered the “gold standard” for body fat measurement,
however because of the size and expense of the equipment needed very few places are set up to
do this kind of measurement.
Agility is the ability to change and control the direction and position of the body while
maintaining a constant, rapid motion. For example, changing directions to hit a tennis ball.
Balance is the ability to control or stabilize the body when a person is standing still or moving.
For example, in-line skating.
Coordination is the ability to use the senses together with body parts during movement. For
example, dribbling a basketball. Using hands and eyes together is called hand-eye coordination.
Speed is the ability to move your body or parts of your body swiftly. Many sports rely on speed
to gain advantage over your opponents.
Power is the ability to move the body parts swiftly while applying the maximum force of the
muscles. Power is a combination of both speed and muscular strength. For example, fullbacks in
football muscling their way through other players and speeding to advance the ball and volleyball
players getting up to the net and lifting their bodies high into the air.
Reaction Time is the ability to reach or respond quickly to what you hear, see, or feel.
