(Date Covered: November 16 and 18, 2021)

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
By the end of this chapter, the students should be able to:
 Prepare a physical activity program
 Monitor periodically progress towards fitness goals
 Undertake physical activity and physical fitness assessments

SUBJECT MATTER
Topics: Lesson 1: Progress in Fitness (Training Guidelines and FITT Principle)
Reference: 21st Century MAPEH in ACTION 8
Materials: Desktop, Webcam, Headphones, and Slide Presentation

PROCEDURE
Engage/Explore: (visual spatial, verbal linguistic, and bodily kinesthetic)
 Motivation: The teacher will initiate a short exercise for the body that is effective since
the students are most of the time seated in classes.
 Exercises include:
o Head bend
o Shoulder rotation
o Arm stretch
o Hip bend
o Leg raise
o One minute jogging in place
o Jumping jacks (30x)
 After the exercise, cool down will be implemented and the teacher will ask a question
about the importance of exercise to them and their online classes. Some might respond to
help the body function effectively and efficiently.
Day 1
Discussion: (visual spatial, verbal linguistic)
 Review: the different components of physical fitness: health-related fitness and skill-
related fitness
 Describe the importance of being physically fit
 Identify the different training principles
o Overload refers to the amount of load or resistance on the body.
o Progression refers to the way you should increase the load.
 Explain the FITT principle (this tells us how to safely apply the basic principles of
training)
o Frequency refers to how often an individual performs the targeted health-related
physical activity.
o Intensity refers to how hard an individual does the activity during the allotted
period
o Type refers to the kind or specific physical activity to be done to improve a
targeted fitness component
o Time refers to the length or duration of the physical activity.

Day 2
Discussion: (visual spatial, verbal linguistic)
  Review: The different training principles and the FITT principles
 Identify the different barriers to physical fitness
o The person does not have goals
o No schedule set for training
o Improper diet associated with exercise
o No monitoring of progress
 State various ways to improve one’s fitness and health
o Make exercise a part of your habit
o Set reachable goals
o Support exercise routine with healthful lifestyle
o Get workout partner

Extend/Elaborate:
 Importance of Lesson/Application: Learning about the importance of being physically
fit, one must engage to it by means of learning the different principles to assure that your
exercise program will be effective and will attain the goals you have set for yourself.
 Values Integration: Health awareness and discipline
 Guide question: What is the importance of being physically fit?

Generalization:
 Training principles to remember are Overload and Progression
 FITT means Frequency, Intensity, Type, and Time
 Barriers to physical fitness must be overcome to achieve success in your exercise
program

EVALUATION
Day 2 (visual spatial, verbal linguistic)
 Create an exercise program following the FITT Principle over the week, starting from
Sunday
 Identify what exercise/s you will do per day.
 Make sure to write specific exercises and your goals will be at the end of the exercise
