PREFACE
One of the things a person needs to be able to do is move through different kinds of physical
activities and fitness exercises. Being in good physical condition does not require you to be an
athlete. But having a good healthy body is the prime concern of each individual. It makes no
difference what size or shape you are; increasing the amount of physical activity you do will
improve your fitness and health. The exercise regimen, as well as a variety of fitness-based
exercises, will be covered in this module. This will enable students to design their program of
exercises they can perform at home and in class.
LESSON 7 WHAT IS EXERCISE-BASED FITNESS AND THE CLASSIFICATION OF EXERCISES?

Specific Learning Outcomes
At the end of the topic students are expected to:
a. Demonstrate understanding of exercise-based fitness and its exercises by performing
with group mates.
Introduction
Exercises are planned physical activities that you regularly do. All those activities are
tailored according to your goals and needs. Whether it is for health or skills performances as long
as you are doing it to keep yourself physically active and fit. The lesson will discuss exercise-based
fitness and the classification of exercises to give you an idea of what to plan for your training.

Acquire
There are three primary types of exercise, and each one has an effect on the body that is entirely
different from the others. A good routine for physical fitness ought to incorporate aspects of all
three or depending on the goals and need of the individual who will engage in a fitness regimen.
CLASSIFICATION OF EXERCISES
 AEROBICS /CARDIOVASCULAR EDURANCE
 FLEXIBILITY
 STRENGTH
Aerobic exercise focuses on repetition, intensity, rhythm, and large muscle groups (like the arms
and thighs). Aerobic exercise strengthens the cardiovascular system, which increases blood flow
to the heart (and oxygen flow), improving cardiovascular fitness. This exercises are intended to
increase the intensity of your breathing. During the process, both carbohydrate and fat that has
been stored in your body are burned. The objective here is to achieve and stay within your Target
Heart Range, which refers to the range of heartbeats that is most beneficial during physical
activity.
Flexibility exercises are an important part of a good workout program but are often neglected. It
keeps muscles relaxed and prevents injury. Stretching before and after a workout reduces
soreness. Stretching involves flexing or stretching a specific muscle or tendon to improve the
muscle's felt elasticity and achieve comfortable muscle tone. Muscle control, flexibility, and range
of motion improve.
Resistance exercise is also called strength training or weight training builds muscle strength,
anaerobic endurance, and size.
Resistance training is based on the idea that muscles will work to overcome a resistance force.
Repeated resistance training strengthens muscles.
A well-rounded fitness program includes strength training, aerobic exercise to improve heart and
lung fitness, flexibility, and balance exercises.
Apply
a. Group by 10 and do exercises according to what is being assigned.
b. Perform exercises within 15 minutes by group.

Lesson 8 PHASES OF EXERCISES

At the end of the topic student are expected to:
1. Demonstrate an understanding of the phases of exercises by identifying their function
in an exercise regimen.
2. Perform exercises specific exercises under its phases.
3. Appreciate the benefits of exercising by placing a focus on phases.
INTRODUCTION
In every exercise routine or regimen, it should be understood that specific parts should be
emphasized with varying effects. Each of the phases plays a significant part in assisting you in
achieving your fitness goals while ensuring that your health and safety are maintained
throughout the process. The lesson will discuss the phases that should be performed in an
exercise regimen.

WARM-UP
During the warm-up part of your workout, your body gets ready for the work of the
conditioning part. Warming up before you work out gives your heart, muscles, breathing,
and circulation time to get used to the extra work. Warm-ups also slowly raise your body
temperature, improve your flexibility, and keep you from getting hurt or sore muscles.
Warm-ups should be light aerobic activities, like walking slowly for five to ten minutes or
a moderate version of your conditioning exercise, and they should be based on your body
and your conditioning activity. Move your joints and muscles to warm up before you lift
weights.
Warm-up (5-8 mins)
 It prepares the body for normal to strenuous activity

 Facilitate rest to exercise

Page
 Improve blood circulation

 Increase body temperature

 Dissociates more oxygen
 Stretch more postural muscles
 Reduce musculoskeletal injury
CONDITIONING
During the conditioning phase, you do the exercise that is tailored to your goal to either
make you healthier or sports performance. To make you healthier, like burning calories,
building endurance, and making your muscles stronger, aerobic exercises like swimming
or the elliptical jogger, or you can lift free weights, do circuit training on weight machines,
or play a high-intensity. For sports performance you do strength training, and plyometric
exercises. Speed and agility.
(Albert_Lan.nd.PrincipleofExercisePrescription)
COOL-DOWN
The cool-down part of your workout can let your body rest and get ready for the next
part. After the conditioning phase, you must keep moving to cool down. Your heart rate,
blood pressure, as well as body temperature should slowly return to normal as you
perform things to cool down. A good way to cool down is to slowly slow down your
physical activity, such as by walking slowly. To cool down, you can also do a few stretching
moves. ( http://www.livestrong.com/article/421773-four-phases-of-exercise).

Lesson 9. PERSONAL PHYSICAL FITNESS

At the end of the topic student are expected to:
1. Understand the methods of designing personal fitness programs;
2. Apply the learned methods in designing their program.
3. Perform the program at their pace either at home or in class with the monitoring
log.
Introduction
People participate in sports and other physically demanding pursuits because they value their
health and fitness. Some people will go to a gym where they will work with personal trainers (PT)
who will assist them and design workout routines for them. However, it is possible that some
people do not have the financial means to pay for a PT; however, this does not prevent them
from participating in physical activities. Learning how to design your fitness program will help
you to continue working toward your goal of staying fit and healthy for the long term.
Training and strategy development methods for personal physical fitness activities will be the
focus of this discussion. People who are working toward their goals of maintaining their fitness
and health to take full advantage of life will find this to be helpful.

What is Personal Fitness Program (PFP)?
A personal exercise program is a plan that specifies the types and amounts of physical activity
you will engage in to achieve your objectives. Programs are designed individually to meet the
requirements of each participant. For instance, anyone looking to lose weight or gain muscle
mass will require a different strategy.
Importance of PFP
1. Prevents under or over-training
2. Gives Structure
3. Provides Goals
4. Provides a Checklist
5. Prevents Burnout
How to Design your PFP?
1. Consider Fitness Goal- Are you going to begin a fitness program to assist you in
losing weight? Or do you have another reason for wanting to get in shape, like training
for a marathon? Having well-defined objectives can make it easier to evaluate your
progress and keep you motivated.
2. Assess Your fitness level. Assessment of your present fitness level will be your base
benchmark to start your program design.
3. Create a balanced routine. It suggests that you spread out exercises during the course of
a week.
Ex. Aerobic fitness
a. moderate Zumba activity for 150 minutes /week
b. vigorous rope jumping for 75 minutes/week.
c. Combination of moderate to vigorous for 150 minutes/week.
4. Start low and progress slowly. If you have never worked out before, you should ease into
it and build up your endurance gradually.
Ex. Rope jumps 100 x/1st weeks and gradually increases the number of skips as
you progress.
5. Build activity into your daily routine. Making time in your schedule for physical activity
can be difficult. To make things simpler for yourself, put exercise on your calendar just as
you would any other appointment.
9
Ex. Watching your favorite Netflix movie and doing your rope jump.
Page

6. Plan to include different activities. Doing constantly the same routine for a month will
make you bored. Include different activities like rope jumps do jog next week. From low
–moderate intensity, exercises move to high-intensity interval exercises with recovery.
Allow time for recovery. Give yourself some time to recover. A lot of people start working
out with overzealous enthusiasm, working out for too long or too intensely, and then they
quit when their muscles and joints become sore or injured as a result of their workouts.
Make sure you give your body enough time to recover and rest in between workouts.
Get Started. Be committed to your plan.
 Start slowly and build up gradually. Follow the phases of exercises.
 Break things up if you have to. If you feel you are already exhausted then break it out.
 Be creative. Find activities you enjoy to add to your fitness routine.
 Listen to your body. If you are exhausted or not feeling well, pains in doing the
activity, then take a leave for your body to recover.
Monitor your progress. Perform a personal fitness assessment on yourself six weeks after you
begin your training program, and then continue to do so every few months after. It is the
realization that you need to extend the duration of your workouts to have the improvements you
have made. If you are no longer motivated with your program change your goal.
Apply
a. Select Exercises/activities based on the results of the fitness assessment
b. Design your program
c. Perform your program within 30 days and document it. Using Monitoring log.

Lesson 10 FLEXIBILITY VS. MOBILITY

1. Demonstrate understanding between flexibility and mobility through actual
performance.
2. Apply the identified flexibility and mobility exercises in their routine.
3. Value the importance of flexibility and mobility in daily physical activities.
Introduction
Musculoskeletal motion is involved in the performance of all types of physical activities. The use
of our ligaments, tendons, and joints underlies every single one of our movements. Flexibility and
mobility in this term differ in how the movement will be performed or whether are they
synonymous. The topic will give you the answer of whether it differs in the movement or is
synonymous.

Flexibility vs. Mobility
Flexibility is defined as "the ability of a muscle or muscle groups to lengthen passively through a
range of motion, the ability of a joint to move actively through a range of motion. It is not only
the muscles that stretch over a joint that are important, but also how far the joint moves within
the joint capsule. Mobility is the ability of a joint to move actively through a range of motion.
Mobility considers the component of motor control within the nervous system.

Lesson 11 BASIC STRENGTH EXERCISES AND VARIABLES OF TRAINING

1. Identify the different muscles group related to specific strength exercises.
2. Perform exercises to strength muscle groups.
3. Demonstrate understanding of the variables of training to strength exercises
program by presentation of examples.
4. Create a basic strength exercises program by applying the variables of training.
Introduction
A health-related part of physical fitness is something to think about. In addition to having good
cardiovascular endurance and flexibility, it also helps to have good muscular strength and
endurance. Having good strength and endurance in your muscles makes your muscles stronger.
There are things you need to understand when planning strength training program to make sure
it meets its goals. The variables of training is one factor to make the program successful. The
lesson will help you learn about the way your body works and variables of training that guide you
to a successful program.

Variables of Training
Volume
Volume in exercise program design describes the amount of exercise performed within a specific
time period. For example, volume within a training session or over a weekly basis. Volume is
defined as either;
 Total repetitions (sets x repetitions)
 Volume load (sets x repetitions x resistance)
Repetitions
In designing an exercise program, the training volume is based on the number of reps per set,
20
the number of sets per session, and the number of sessions per week. Repetitions can be put into
Page
three roughly equal groups :

 Low (1 to 5) Low repetitions are shown to be optimal for increasing muscle strength with
minimal benefit to muscle hypertrophy. Lifting at low repetition ranges allows for heavier
weights to be used and for maximal muscular force and tension to be exerted
 Moderate (6 to 12) are optimal for muscle hypertrophy . This repetition range allows for
increased tension to be exerted by the working muscles. Also, at moderate repetitions,
muscle tension is maintained long enough (time-under-tension) to enhance muscle
damage and fatigue, both essential for muscle growth
 High (15 or more) is better suited to achieving adaptations in muscular endurance (i.e.
muscles ability to work sub maximally over a longer period) . Working at higher repetition
ranges requires less maximal force or muscle tension, however time-under-tension is
enhanced from lifting over a longer duration.
Sets
 It is a group of consecutive repetitions.
Intensity
 Training intensity, should be manipulated in exercise program design according to the
desired goal and is generally determined by repetition range.
Rest Intervals
 A rest interval is the amount of time between the end of one set and the start of the next
set or exercise in an exercise program.
Frequency
 Training frequency in exercise program design refers to the number of training sessions
completed within a specified period.
Apply
a. Divide into six groups.
b. For each muscle group, choose three exercises to do with your group applying the
variables of training that is appropriate to your goal. Used the matrix in the example.

Page
At the end of the topic, students are expected to:

1. Understands how cardiovascular exercises affect health by monitoring exercise

heartbeats.
2. Plan cardiovascular exercises and monitor heartbeats.
3. Perform selected types of cardiovascular exercises.
Introduction
Large muscles are utilized in every form of physical activity. This activity puts a strain on the heart
and lungs, forcing them to work harder than they normally would when the body is at rest. To
maintain one's overall health and physical fitness and to keep one's heart in good condition,
cardiovascular exercise is necessary. On the other hand, some people push themselves beyond
their limits, which can result in cardiac overload. You will come away from this discussion with a
better understanding of how to properly perform physical activities without putting too much
strain on the heart.

endurance can make it easier for you to carry out your daily tasks. It can also lessen your risk of
diseases such as diabetes, heart disease, and stroke.
It is the capacity of the cardiovascular system, particularly the heart and lungs, to take in,
transport, and make use of oxygen for an extended period during strenuous physical activity. To
achieve cardiovascular endurance, you should exercise aerobically 30 minutes per day, 3 to 5
days per week a total of 150 minutes.
Benefits of CVE
1. Lowered risk of disease
2. Increased maximal oxygen consumption
3. Improve cardiovascular function
4. Lower blood pressure and heart rate
5. Increased threshold of lactic acid accumulation
6. Increased in HDL
7. Decreased triglycerides
8. Reduced body fat and improved weight control
9. Improved glucose tolerance and reduced insulin resistance
Understanding your heart
 RHR (RESTING HEART RATE)
This is the number of pulse beats at rest. The best time to take is waking up in the
morning, The average RHR is 75 beats /minute and 80 beats/minute.
 EXERCISE HEART RATE (EHR) OR TRAINING HEART RATE(THR)
This determined the intensity of your training zone. It is 60-80% of your maximum heart
capacity (after deducting age from 220) while exercising. It is taken right after
conditioning proper within 6 seconds and beats are multiplied by 10 to get the exact EPR
for 1 minute.( e.g. an ordinary college freshman should approximately have an EPR of
130-160 beats per minute. This is gradually attained in the workout phase and sustained
within 20-30 minutes of steady exercise (Tulio:2010).
 Recovery Rate (RR)
This is the number of pulse beats taken after 3-5 five minutes of resting after a workout.
The heartbeats should go back to normal or slightly above the resting heart rate
(Tulio:2010).
Note: (In taking the pulse is either at the wrist or the carotid artery with the forefinger
and the middle finger).
 INTENSITY of your workout
50-85% of maximal aerobic capacity
50—85% heart rate reserve
60-90% of the maximal heart rate
24
 Low intensity: 35-60% of heart rate Max or 60-60^ of heart rate reserve
Page
 Moderate intensity: 60-80% of HRM or 60-70% of HRR

 High intensity: 60-70% of HRM or 70%-90% of HRR
 HOW TO DETERMINE YOUR HEART RATE TRAINING RANGE?
1. HEART RATE RESERVE (HRR) KARVONEN FORMULA

Find resting heart rate (RHR)
Find predicted Heart rate Max (220-age)
Find your HRR (HRR= HRM – RHR
Ex. RHR 75 beats
HRM 200
HRR= 220-75
= 195
2. FIND THE LOWER LIMIT OF THE HEART RATE TRAINING RANGE
HRR X.5O + THR (LOW TARGET HEART RATE)
3. FIND THE MIDDLE LIMIT OF THE HEART RATE TRAINING

HRR X .60/.70 + THR (MIDDLE LIMIT OF THE HEART RATE TRAINING)

Sample of Group Games for Fitness
 Fitness Scrabble
Dust off your old bag of scrabble tiles and get scoring…
Players: 2+
Equipment: Scrabble Letter Tiles
Game: Line up all the players and place the bag of letter tiles 30-40 yds away. On go, each
player completes 8 push-ups, 8 squats, and 8 sit-ups and then runs to the bag, grabs a tile,
and runs back to repeat this process. Players continue this process until someone has
completed a three-letter word. That person wins the round, and he or she is now
challenged with completing a four-letter word next round. You can have as many rounds
as you like, with each round winner having their required letter threshold raised after
each win.
 Burpee Bombs
You might make a few enemies with this finisher free-for-all…
Players: 4+
Equipment: Playing Cards
Procedure:
Game: Set everyone up in either a big circle or in a line and place a few big piles of shuffled
cards face down near the players. The objective is to finish as many cards as possible in
10 minutes, and their is an element of strategy involved as you can slow other players
down with Burpee Bombs. On “Go”, each player will draw 2 cards – one to keep and one
to give out to another player as a “Burpee Bomb”. Players give the Burpee Bomb card
out to any other player by placing it FACE DOWN on that player’s mat, and then they go
back to their mat to complete the card they kept for themselves. They will keep that card
FACE UP in their score pile. Here’s a basic set of exercises you can use that is mnemonic
and easy to remember:
Diamonds: Diamond Pushups (or Dead Bugs)
Spades: Squat Jumps (or Sit-Ups)
Clubs: Curls (or Crunches)
28
Hearts: Hops (or Hip Extensions)

FACE DOWN: “Burpee Bomb” – 10 Full Burpees

 Plankerpillar
Great race-type game for large teams that really gets them screaming for their
teammates…
Players: 4+
Equipment: None
Procedure:
Game: Split all players into 2 even teams and setup each team behind a starting line,
holding low planks in a side-by-side row. They should be no more than arm’s length from
each other, their bodies all the same direction, like this:
The “race” will work similarly to the Caterpillar Crawl game: When the game starts, the
last player in the row will get up and race around to the front and then re-assume plank
position and yell “go”. Then whoever is now in the last spot does the same, and so on.
Continue “racing” until one of the teams has gone a predetermined distance and all team
members are past the goal cone and planking. As the coach, it is your job to make sure
teammates stay within arm’s reach of each other, and that the player at the end waits to
get up until the runner is in plank and yells “go”.
Modifications: Have the more advanced players hop over their teammate’s legs rather
than running around behind their legs and/or have beginners plank from their knees.

Unit 5 NUTRITIONAL FOOD LABEL AND BALANCED DIET

Lesson 14
At end of the unit students are expected to:
a. Demonstrate understanding of the significance of a balanced diet to exercise
by infographic presentation.
b. Critique the nutritional facts label of their favorite food by self-assessment.
c. Plan their balanced diet by having their goal in relation to their physical
fitness activities.
Introduction
Every day, people have to work hard to eat well, exercise regularly, and stay happy and healthy
in general. People may think that the foods they eat now are enough to keep them alive every
day and that they don't need to change what they eat. On the other hand, they are unsure of the
impact that this will have on the body. Some people stay physically fit through their activities,
but they don't pay attention to what they put in their bodies through what they eat. Too
frequently, we always seek the advice of those people whom we think would be of great help to
give us advice regarding what to eat or go to the internet to browse what is best. This is because
we believe that these people will be able to provide us with the best information. It left us unsure
of what to do and in whom we could put our faith. In this unit, you will learn what is meant by a
balanced diet.

a. Put the students into five groups.
b. Within 5 minutes of thinking about the first question and coming up with ideas,
"What do you eat for most of your meals?"
c. The first group to answer the first question will then choose another group and
ask them a different question that is related to the first question.
d. Continue the process in C.
Acquire
Energy Need
The body requires energy at all times, including when it is at rest and when it is relaxed.
By maintaining a warm body temperature, it is possible to keep the heart beating, the lungs
breathing, and all of the reactions that occur in the cells.
Basal metabolic rate (BMR) is the amount of energy you need just to stay alive, awake,
and comfortably warm.
Working Energy (WE) is the amount of energy to move around, digest food, do exercise
but depends on how active you are.
TOTAL ENERGY NEEDED = BMR +WORKING ENERGY (measured in kilojoules or

kilocalories)
Calories or kilocalories measure food and drink energy. The excess calories we consume
are stored as body fat. Continuing this may cause weight gain. To stay healthy, the average
man needs 2,500 kcal (10,500kJ) per day. The average woman consumes 2,000kcal
(8,400kJ) daily. Age, size, and physical activity affect these values.
Calories and Energy Balance
Food and drink calories prevent overeating. Many packaged foods have calorie labels.
Energy shows this data. Calories are measured in kilojoules. Write 1,000 kcal. Kilojoules are
metric calories. Calories x 4.2 = kilojoules. The label usually lists the food or drink's calories per
100 grams or milliliters. Many labels list serving calories. You may consume more calories than
the manufacturer. Calorie information can aid diet planning.
31
Calorie burn
Page

Size, age, and activity level affect how many calories people burn. Active people burn more
calories. Faster walking burns more calories. If you're gaining weight, you may be eating and
drinking too much. Use more energy than you consume over time to lose weight. Start counting
calories. Diet and exercise are best.
How much energy do foods give?
Carbohydrates, fats, and proteins provide energy. The table compares energy in each.
FOOD CLASSIFICATION KILOJOULES/KLCALORIES
1 gram Carbohydrates 17.1

1 gram Protien 18.2
1 gram Fats 38.9
Different People Have Different Energy Needs
Energy needs defend on the three variables;
 Age - more energy is needed when your still young and less when get over
40 because metabolism slows down.
 Sex - male usually need more energy than females of the same age.
 Lifestyle – The more active you are, the more energy you need.
DAILY ENERGY NEEDED (KJ/KCAL)
AGE MALE FEMALE
Child aged 8 8,2000 7,300
Teenager aged 15 11,500 8800
Adult doing office work 10,500 9000
Adult doing heavy work 14,0000 10,500
Retired person at 75 9, 000 7,000
Understanding Nutritional Facts Label
There are many reasons to look at food labels. No matter what the reason, a lot of people
want to know how to use this information better. With these skills, you'll be able to use the
Nutrition Facts label to make quick, healthy food decisions. This information helps you to make
decisions about the food you buy and eat so you can follow a healthy diet.
The sample nutrition label below contains product-specific information in the top section
32
(see #1-4). (serving size, calories, and nutrient information). The footnote at the bottom explains
Page

the % Daily Value and provides general nutrition advice on calories. The highlighted key
areas in the Nutrition Facts label below.
1. Serving Information
First, check the nutrition facts label for servings per container and size. Serving sizes are
given in cups or pieces followed by the metric amount, e.g., grams, for easy comparison. (g).
People usually eat the serving. It's diet-free. The serving size determines the label's nutrient
amounts, including calories. Check serving size and food package, count. Do you eat half, one, or
more servings? Sample label lasagna serves 1 cup. Two-cup servings. Double the sample label's
calories, nutrients, and percent of daily value (%DVs for two servings).

Example
One %DV Two %DV

Serving Serving

Lasagna Lasagna
Serving Size 1 cup 2 cups
Calories 280 560
Total Fat 9g 12% 18g 24%
Saturated Fat 4.5g 23% 9g 46%
Trans Fat 0g 0g
Cholesterol 35mg 12% 70mg 24%
Sodium 850mg 37% 1700mg 74%
Total 34g 12% 68g 24%

Carbohydrate
Dietary Fiber 4g 14% 8g 29%
Total Sugars 6g 12g
Added Sugars 0g 0% 0g 0%
Protein 15g 30g
Vitamin D 0mcg 0% 0mcg 0%
Calcium 320mg 25% 640mg 50%
Iron 1.6mg 8% 3.2mg 20%
Potassium 510mg 10% 1020mg 20%
2. Calories
This food's calories measure its energy. Lasagna has 280 calories. What if you devoured
34
the package? You'd consume 1,120 calories from 4 servings.

Page

Balance your calorie intake and expenditure to maintain a healthy weight. Nutritional advice
recommends 2,000 calories per day. Age, sex, height, weight, and activity level affect your calorie
needs.
Remember: Calories depend on servings. Overeating causes obesity.
3. Nutrients
It displays health-related nutrients. Look for foods with more of the nutrients you want
and less of the nutrients you don't like reduce saturated fat, sodium, and added sugars.
Associated eating too much-saturated fat, sodium, and added sugars based on the recommended
limits because it can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease and high blood pressure. Adding
sugars can make it hard to meet nutrient needs while staying within calorie limits.
What have added sugars?
The Nutrition Facts label lists Total Sugars, which includes natural sugars like milk and fruit
as well as any added sugars. Total sugars have no daily reference value because there is no daily
recommendation.
The Nutrition Facts label lists added sugars as sucrose or dextrose added during food
processing, table sugar, syrups, honey, and concentrated fruit or vegetable juices. High-sugar
diets can make it hard to get enough nutrients while staying within calorie limits.
Note: The word "includes" before Added Sugars on the label means the product's grams of Total
Sugars include Added Sugars.
35
Ex. A sweetened yogurt container might list the following:

Page

Label Total Sugars. The product has 15 grams of sugar—7 grams of added sugars and 8 grams
of naturally occurring sugars.
More fiber, vitamin D, calcium, iron, and potassium . Americans rarely get the recommended
amounts of dietary fiber, vitamin D, calcium, iron, and potassium. They're recommended
nutrients. Dietary fiber increases bowel movements, lowers blood glucose and cholesterol, and
cuts calories. Vitamin D, calcium, iron, and potassium-rich diets reduce the risk of osteoporosis,
anemia, and high blood pressure.
Remember: Use the label to support your personal dietary needs—choose foods with more of
the nutrients you want and less of the nutrients you may want to limit.
4. The Percent of Daily Value (%DV)
A food's %DV is its nutrient's Daily Value. The Daily Values are daily nutrient intake limits
in grams, milligrams, or micrograms. A serving's %DV indicates how much a nutrient contributes
to a daily diet. The %DV shows if a food is high or low in a nutrient. Does the %DV require a
percentage calculation? The label (%DV) calculates it for you! It puts all nutrient numbers on a
daily scale (0–100%DV) to help you understand them. %DV doesn't equal 100% vertically. Instead,
the %DV is the percentage of the daily value for each nutrient in a food serving. It can tell you if
a food is high or low in a nutrient and how much it contributes to your daily diet.
General Guide to %DV
 5% DV or less of a nutrient per serving is considered low
 20% DV or more of a nutrient per serving is considered high
More often, choose foods that are:
 Higher in %DV for Dietary Fiber, Vitamin D, Calcium, Iron, and Potassium
36
 Lower in %DV for Saturated Fat, Sodium, and Added Sugars

Example
Page

The sample nutrition label lists one serving's sodium content. Is 37% DV contributing much to
your diet? Check %DV's, General Guide. This high-sodium product has 37% DV. Two servings
provide 74% of the DV for sodium, nearly three-quarters of a day's worth.
Guide for a balanced diet and physical fitness
To be healthy you need a balanced diet. That means a diet that matches your energy
needs and gives the right mixture of nutrients and fiber. A balanced diet is 15% protein, 30% fat,
and 55% carbohydrates.
 If you have to lift your own body weight, for example, jumping, you won’t be building up
a huge muscle mass in training so your build shouldn’t require huge amounts of calories.
 If you are doing long-distance work then you need to have plenty of starchy
carbohydrates.
 No athlete needs to eat fatty foods, fats are made from excess carbohydrates.
 By eating a balanced diet you will get enough fat for long-distance/time sports, enough
carbohydrates (for aerobic work) enough protein9repairs), and enough vitamins.
 Cut down on salt, sugar, fatty, and processed (ready to cook) meals.
 Eat plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables.
