• The concept of energy balance compares the amount of energy
consumed as food with the amount of energy expended through
physical activities, exercises, and resting metabolism.

balancing the food you eat. These foods are used as energy
to keep your body systems working.You use some for physical
activity and exercises such as playing sports and dancing.

weight.
2. If you eat the same amount of food that your body needs
in your daily physical activities, you will maintain your
weight.
3. If you have more than energy expenditure than the food
intake, you will lose weight.
 To sum it up:
WEIGHT GAIN
(more calories consumed/less calories expended)

WEIGHT LOSS
(more calories consumed/ less calories expended)

WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
(calories consumed = calories expended)

 ORIENTEERING
 It is an outdoor navigational recreational activity using
specially drawn and detailed maps.
 It requires navigational skills to navigate from point to
point normally moving at a speed .
 An orienteering course consist of a series of control
points which have to be located in order in the shortest
possible time.
 BENEFITS OF ORIENTEERING
1. Conceptual aspects – Since it is a
navigational activity, it enhances your decision
making skills about map interpretations and
using compass. It also requires you to
constantly interpret information contained in
the map.
 BENEFITS OF ORIENTEERING
2. Physical Aspect – Orienteering is basically a
running sport so it develops your cardiovascular
endurance and general fitness. Speed, endurance,
and strength are essential components necessary to
successfully participate in the game. Technically, this
activity captivates the mental and physical challenge
features.
 BENEFITS OF ORIENTEERING
3. Personal aspects – Since you are responsible in making
decisions in this activity, you develop your self-confidence and
reliance.Your aim are clear that you work hard to achieve them
giving you the feeling of self-achievement.
4. Social Aspects –You will learn to work cohesively with one
another
5. Environmental aspect – It creates an avenue for you to
appreciate your environment
The fundamental skill in orienteering is orientating the
map or setting the map. In moving the map, you have to:

 Find your approximate location on the map

 Recognize the pattern of features on the ground as being the
same as the pattern on the map
 Always hold the map so that you are looking along the route
with the map matching the ground.
 The map is said to be oriented if the features on the map are
in proper relation to the actual features in the field
 The Map
 is a picture or representation of the earth’ s
surface.
 It includes a compass rose that shows directions.
 Cardinal directions are the four base parts on a
compass. The top point is north and the point at
the bottom is south. The side points are called east
and west.
 The points in between the cardinal directions are
called intermediate directions which include
northwest, northeast, southwest and southeast.
 The Map Key
 Maps use a key or legend to explain the meaning of
each of the symbols used in the map.
 The key usually shows a small picture of each of the
symbols used on the map, along with a written
description of the meaning of each symbol.
 Maps use a key or legend to explain the meaning of
each of the symbols used in the map.
 The key usually shows a small picture of each of the

 Here’s the golden rule of orienteering:
Only go as fast as you can read the
map
Know where you are (map-reading skills)
Know where you are going ( route-choice
skills)
 Orienteering Compass
 A compass is an invaluable tool that every
backpacker should know how to use. It is a
magnetized needle floating in a liquid and
responding to the Earth’s magnetic field
consequently revealing directions. Generally, a
compass is use to measure bearings and to pinpoint
locations
 Orienteering Compass Parts
 Magnetic needle – the magnetic needles north end is
painted red and its south end is white.
 Revolving compass housing – the housing is marked with
the four cardinal points of north, east, south and west and
further divided into 2 degree graduations indicating the full
360 degrees of a circle. The bottom of the rotating housing
is marked with an orienting arrow and meridian lines
 Transparent base plate – the base plate is marked with a
ruler , an index line as well as the direction of travel arrow.
Parts of an Orienteering Compass
Bearing
 Bearing refers to the direction from one spot to another measured in
degrees from the reference line of north.

How do you take the bearing?

 Hold the compass in front of you with the direction of travel arrow
pointing at object of interest
 Hold the compass level steady and rotate the housing dial until the
orienting arrow lines up with the red end ( north end) of the magnetic
needle, while keeping the direction of travel arrow pointed at the object.
 Read the number indicated at the index line – that is your bearing
