13 1. Warm-Up Increases heart rate & blood supply to muscles Increases heart rate & blood supply to muscles Helps you mentally focus Helps you mentally focus Generates heat in your muscles- increases flexibility & avoid injury Generates heat in your muscles- increases flexibility & avoid injury

14 2. Workout Frequency- How often you exercise Intensity- How hard you work (lbs, reps, resistance) 70-80% of THR Time- How long your exercise (duration, laps, time) As high school freshman, you should work out __ to __ times a week at 70-80% of THR for at least ___ to ___ minutes

15 3. Cool down Prevents tightened muscles from becoming sore Prevents tightened muscles from becoming sore Allows HR to return to normal Allows HR to return to normal Assisting in prevents injury Assisting in prevents injury Examples? Examples?

19 How will this class help? 2 Activity Days: - Development of physical skills - Teamwork (communication, social skills) - Increase in cardiorespiratory endurance 1 Fitness day (TRACK) - Increase HR - Increase cardiorespiratory endurance - Introduce fitness techniques you can use later in life

20 1 Classroom Day - Gain an understanding of fitness, nutrition and techniques to lead an active lifestyle - Introduce weight room exercises and skills - Develop a fitness plan designed to achieve our GOALS

21 1 Weight Room Day - Understand what muscle or muscle group each machine works and how to properly use them - Get comfortable and confident using free weights, circuit machines and plyometric activities - Implement fitness plan related to your GOALS

22 Your assignment 1) Determine 2 components of health related fitness you would like to work on and why. 2) Set 3 goals you would like to achieve by the end of the semester. 3) Due next Wednesday 9/18. Must be typed.
