Learning Competencies:
At the end of the lesson, the students will be able to:
• Self-assesses health-related fitness status barrier to physical
activities.
• Engages in moderate to vigorous physical activities (MVPAs) for at
least 60 minutes most days of the week in a variety of settings.
• Frequency Intensity Time Type (FITT) goals based on training
principles to achieve and/or maintain health-related fitness (HRF).
Formative Questions:
1. What are the health-related
fitness status barriers to physical
activities?
2. What physical activities do you
do daily? Weekly?
No one wants to become sick, that is why an effective strategy to become
healthy is to move more. In 2008, the Food and Nutrition Research Institute
(FNRI) reported that 86% of Filipino high schools in Manila failed to achieve the
recommended physical activity. Same study from WHO says majority of
adolescents worldwide are not sufficiently physically active and putting their
current and future health at risk. In the study published in The Lancet Child &
Adolescent Health journal and produced by researchers from the World Health
Organization (WHO), found that more than 80% of school going adolescents
globally did not meet current recommendations of at least one hour of physical
activity per day- including 85% of girls and 78 % of boys.
With the emergence of different online games, life of adolescents
became inactive. Their time for physical activities decreases as they
spend more time using their gadgets and watching TV or movies.
According to the World Health Organization, in 2010, the physical
inactivity or the lack of physical activity has been identified as the fourth
leading risk factor for global mortality (6% of deaths). Inactive in physical
activities cause approximately 21-25% breast cancer and colon cancer,
27% of diabetes cases, and approximately 30% of ischemic heart disease
case.
Common results of physical
inactivity involves:
• increased risk of being overweight and obese
• hypertension/high blood
• Anxiety
• type 2 diabetes mellitus
• depression
Part of the development of the adolescent is to engage
in physical activities at least 60 minutes a day. There
are different exercises that you can do, such as aerobic
exercises, muscle-strengthening, and bone-
strengthening exercises. Aside from these various
exercises, you should include the principle of
progression or even the principle of overload to
effectively achieve your fitness goal
Regular exercises and frequent participation in
physical activities can lead you to a healthy body
and can cope for more demands of effort to
become stronger and more efficient in everyday
life. For example, a regular aerobic exercise will
stimulate changes in the various organs and
tissues of your body but is more emphasized in
the cardiovascular system.
Engaging in muscle-strengthening exercises can
increase the size of your muscles. The increase
in muscle fiber size or hypertrophy commonly
starts after two months. Lastly, doing stretching
exercises or bone-strengthening exercises can
improve your range of motion around the joints. It
helps you to do daily tasks efficiently.
