Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans is a set of recommendations developed by the government, health professionals and policymakers to helps Americans improve their health through ____________ ____________.
intense emotions
sedentary behavior
physical activity
fitness components
How do you find your maximum heart rate?
Your age plus 220
220 divided by your age
Your age subtracted from 220
Your age minus 220
Cardiorespiratory endurance is:
ability to exert force during an activity
range of motion around joints/muscle flexibility
ability of muscles to continue to perform an activity without getting tired
ability to perform an activity with heart rate elevated for a prolonged period of time
An example of progression for training would be
Running 4 times a week, the first week running 1/2 mile then adding 1/4 a mile every week after that for 5 weeks
Running once a week
Running the same miles every week
Running 4 times a week, the first week running 3 miles then taking off 1/4 a mile every week after that for 5 weeks
The number of times your heart beats per minute while at complete rest.

lower
higher
stays the same

Which statement is true?
A fit person’s heart may work more efficiently than a nonfit person’s heart because genetics determines the heart’s efficiency.
A fit person’s heart may work the same as a nonfit person’s heart because genetics determines the heart’s efficiency.
A fit person’s heart works more efficiently by pumping less blood with more beats.
A fit person’s heart works more efficiently by pumping more blood with fewer beats.

Lie down for at least 5 minutes.
Stand in place for 5 to 10 minutes.
Walk or slowly jog for 5 to 10 minutes.
Sit in a soft chair for at least 15 minute.

Figuring Intensity To Training
Frequency, Intensity, Time, and Type
Frequency, Intensity, Temperature, Time
Forever Include Terrific Training
