BODY COMPOSITION

In physical fitness, body composition is used to describe the percentages of


fat, bone, water and muscle in human bodies. Because muscular tissue takes
up less space in our body than fat tissue, our body composition, as well as
our weight, determines leanness.

B.CARDIOVASCULAR ENDURANCE

Cardiovascular Endurance is the ability of the heart, lungs and blood vessels to
deliver oxygen to your body tissues. The more efficiently your body delivers oxygen to
its tissues, the lower your breathing rate is. While this may help you get a little more
bottom time from each tank of air, the real benefits are being more relaxed during each
dive, experiencing less fatigue and being better able to respond to challenging currents,
long swims and any emergencies that may arise. Essentially, a stronger, more efficient
oxygen delivery system allows you to dive with greater ease in any situation.

D.FLEXIBILITY

Flexibility or limberness refers to the absolute range of movement in a joint or


series of joints, and length in muscles that cross the joints to induce a bending
movement or motion.

B.AGILITY

Agility or nimbleness is the ability to change the body's position efficiently, and requires
the integration of isolated movement skills using a combination
of balance, coordination, speed, reflexes, strength, and endurance. Agility is the ability
to change the direction of the body in an efficient and effective manner and to achieve
this requires a combination of

balance the ability to maintain equilibrium when stationary or moving (i.e. not to fall
over) through the coordinated actions of our sensory functions (eyes, ears and the
proprioceptive organs in our joints);
static balance the ability to retain the centre of mass above the base of support
in a stationary position;
dynamic balance the ability to maintain balance with body movement;
speed - the ability to move all or part of the body quickly;
strength - the ability of a muscle or muscle group to overcome a resistance; and
lastly,
coordination the ability to control the movement of the body in co-operation with
the body's sensory functions (e.g., in catching a ball [ball, hand, and eye
coordination]).

c.SPEED
Speed is the ability to move quickly across the ground or move limbs rapidly
to grab or throw.

D.POWER

In physics, power is the rate of doing work. It is the amount of energy


consumed per unit time. Having no direction, it is a scalar quantity. In the SI
system, the unit of power is the joule per second (J/s), known as the watt in
honour of James Watt, the eighteenth-century developer of the steam engine.

E.BALANCE

Sports Definition: balance is the ability to stay upright or stay in control of


body movement, and coordination is the ability to move two or more body
parts under control, smoothly and efficiently. There are two types of balance:
static and dynamic.

F.REACTION TIME

Reaction time is the interval time between the presentation of a stimulus and
the initiation of the muscular response to that stimulus. A primary factor
affecting a response is the number of possible stimuli, each requiring their
own response, that are presented.
