What are the 5 components of fitness? 

• speed, agility, muscular strength, muscular endurance, body composition
• Cardiorespiratory endurance, muscular strength, muscular endurance, body composition, flexibility
• Cardiorespiratory endurance, muscular strength, muscular endurance, dynamic stretching, static stretching
• Cardiorespiratory endurance, speed, agility, flexibility, muscular strength

The muscle's ability to work over a long period of time is:

• Flexibility
• Body Composition
• Intensity
• Muscular Endurance

Which of these is not a function of fat mass?

• protecting organs
• absorbing vitamins
• burning oxygen
• source of energy

To improve muscular strength:

• stretch the muscles every day
• work the muscles to near maximal force
• complete an exercise at least 20 times
• fun five miles up and down hills

Cardio respiratory endurance is:

• the body's ability to push or pull with all its force
• the ability to move a joint through a full range of motion
• the ability of the heart, blood, lungs and blood vessels to supply oxygen to the body
• the body's response to a flexibility program

Dynamic stretches:

• involve the help of another person to hold the body part in position while contracting the muscle and after contraction, relaxing the muscle
• involving moving parts of the body continuously while gradually increasing reach, speed of movement or both gently through a full range of motion
• involve stretching a muscle to the point of mild for an extended period
• involving rapid bobbing, bouncing, or jerky movements that use the body's momentum to stretch

Why is it important to do dynamic stretching before physical activity?

• to cool down your body
• to get stronger and look better
• to prevent injury and get your body ready for more intense exercise
• to take up time 

if a person cannot lift something heavy, he/she needs more:

• flexibility
• muscular strength
• cardio endurance
• muscular endurance

if a dancer or gymnast could not do the splits, he/she would need to work on:

• flexibility
• body composition
• cardio endurance
• muscular strength
