Cardiovascular Endurance

The document discusses different components of physical fitness: cardiovascular endurance, muscular endurance, muscular strength, flexibility, and body composition. It defines each component and provides examples of ways to improve each one. Cardiovascular endurance refers to the ability of the body to perform prolonged activities efficiently through circulatory and respiratory endurance. Muscular endurance is the ability of muscles to repeatedly generate force over time. Muscular strength is the maximum force a muscle can generate. Flexibility relates to the range of motion possible at joints. Body composition involves ratios of lean mass to fat mass. The document lists common exercises to enhance each of these physical fitness components.
