The ability to move your joints through a full range of motion.

• Reaction Time
• Flexibility
• Muscular Endurance
• Agility

What is cardiovascular endurance?

• The range of movement around a joint.

• Distance divided by time.

• Ability of the cardiorespiratory system to work efficiently, supplying nutrients and oxygen to working muscles during sustained physical activity.

• The ability of muscle to exert maximum force.

What is balance?

• The ability to move two or more parts of the body at the same time efficiently and accurately.

• The time it takes to respond to a stimulus.

• The ability to combine strength and speed at the same time.

• The ability to keep the body stable, when still or moving.

What is body composition?

• The ability of the muscle or group of muscles to contract repeatedly over time.

• The range of motion around a joint.

• The maximum amount of force generated by a muscle or group of muscles.

• The percentage of body weight which is fat, muscle and bone.

What is reaction time?

• The time taken to respond to a stimulus.

• The ability to perform strength performances quickly.
