II. CONCEPT NOTES
We consider recreation as INDOOR when the activity is within the
premises of your comfort zone at home or inside a building. Recreation
is OUTDOOR when the activity is undertaken in a natural, rural or open
space outside the confines of buildings, usually large land that is close
to nature.
The way you live your life in an everyday basis is your lifestyle. These
are the patterns of your behavior on how you typically live. It includes
eating habits, physical activity participation and recreational choice.
Students like you are faced with lots of things to do in a day. Many of
your activities are less physically active (passive) that you do not need
to exert extra effort and energy, but others are physically active that
requires you to burn extra calories. The activities that you voluntarily
participate in during your free time are called RECREATION.
Experts suggest that in choosing your recreational activities, it should be
of your interest and not of others. It should be voluntary and not
pressured by somebody, and lastly it should meet your recreational
satisfaction needs such as physiological, educational, social, relaxation
and aesthetic.
According to the World Health Organization, the 4th leading cause of
disease is inactivity. This is due to the popularity of the technological
gadgets that you are up to and the poor health lifestyle. Due to this
alarming fact, you are encouraged to switch into a more active lifestyle
by means of engaging to active recreation.
It is classified into two -Indoor Recreational Activities and Outdoor
Activities. You will find out what activities that you are fit and what is
available to your needs.

INDOOR RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES
1. BADMINTON
It is believed to have originated from the game “poona” that was
played by English Army officers stationed in India during the 17th
century. Games are held inside the gym to avoid the effect of air in
the flight of the shuttle. Players need a racket and a shuttle cock to
enjoy the game in a court. The game requires the skills in service,
strokes in hitting the shuttle such as smash, drop, lob or clear and
net shorts, and power of the leg in footwork. The game is played by
either singles, doubles and mixed doubles. A game is won when a
player/s reach a score of 21 points. In case of a deuce (20-all), one
has to gain a two-point advantage over the other. But in case of a 29-
all score, the first to reach 30 will win the set. A match is won by
winning two out of three sets.

2. VOLLEYBALL
The beginning of volleyball can be traced from the ingenuity of
William J. Morgan in 1895 at Holyoke Massachusetts. Initially, the
game was called “mintonette” but in its first exhibition game
demonstration, Alfred Halstead suggested the name “Volley Ball” due
to the volleying characteristic of the game.. In 1910, the game was
brought to the Philippines by Elwood S Brown. The Filipinos are
credited in the changes of the game with the addition of the skill
called “spike or kill”. In 1964, volleyball had its first summer Olympics
exposure as a medal sport. Volleyball is a team sports with six
players in each side of the court with a 9x18 meters dimension. The
object of the game is to send the ball over the net and avoid it from
grounding into your own court. A ball, net and a court are needed to
play the game. Scoring follows a rally point system. A game is won
in a two out of three sets. A set is won by reaching a score of 25. In
case of a deuce, a team should have a two-point advantage over the
other. Players need skills like service, volleying, setting, spiking and
blocking to enjoy much of the game and gain its fitness benefits.

3. ZUMBA
Zumba dance is an alternative indoor recreational activity with fitness
benefit claims. It was accidentally discovered by a Alberto “Beto”
Perez , a celebrity fitness trainer of Colombia in the mid 90‟s. The
birth of zumba came about during one his aerobics class, when he
realized that he had forgotten his aerobics music. Quickly, he
grabbed whatever tape he has in his backpack. It so happened that
his tapes are those of Latin music such as merengue and salsa. With
his improvisation skill, he was able to create an on-the –spot aerobics
class using the non-traditional music. That’s the birth of the dance
fitness craze Zumba!

Dance is another indoor alternative recreation for those who enjoy
the beat of rhythm and movement. It is a fantastic and fun form of
exercise that gradually raises heart rate. That’s why dance is a very
good cardio work out. Regular participation in dance activities
tightens and tones muscle groups and burns more calories.
