 What I Need to Know

As a student, do you have an active lifestyle to maintain your health?

What about your family?

Students like yourselves are faced with lots of things to do in a day.

But in most of these activities, you do not need to exert extra effort and
energy, just like reading, writing, and using cellular phones to name a few.
Playing indoor games such as badminton and volleyball, however, are
activities that require you to burn extra calories. These activities require you
to be physically active.

The activities that you voluntarily participate in during your free time
are called RECREATION. Experts suggest that in choosing your

What’s New

In this part of the module, you will need to pause for a minute and reflect on
the following questions. Base your answers from the previous tasks.
 Which among the activities attend to your biological needs?
 Which among the activities attend to your leisure needs?
 Why do you engage in those activities?
 Which among the activities do you attend most?

What is It

The way you live your life in an everyday basis is your lifestyle. These are the
patterns of your behavior on how you typically live. It includes eating habits, physical
activity participation, and recreational choice. Do you belong to the “technology
generation?” Well, these are the people who choose to spend time in front of the
computer rather than playing sports, walking, and moving around. How about your
eating preferences? Today’s teenagers are seen at places like fast food chains
indulging with unhealthy food such as fries, burgers, and drinking too much sugary
drinks that causes obesity.
Participation in active recreation influences your healthy lifestyle. It improves
health condition in many ways. It also helps you to use the calories better and sustain
a desirable weight.

3
 Lifestyle change is the best way of preventing illness and early death. Major
causes of early death have shifted from infectious diseases to chronic lifestyle related
conditions such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.
Energy Balance
The concept of energy balance compares the amount of energy consumed as
food with the amount of energy expended through physical activities, exercises, and
resting metabolism.
You can maintain a healthy weight by eating a healthy diet and balancing the
food you eat. These foods are used as energy to keep your body systems working.
You use some for physical activity and exercises such as playing sports and dancing.
If you eat more than your energy expenditure, you will gain weight. If you eat
the same amount of food that your body needs in your daily physical activities, you will
maintain your weight. Then if you have more than energy expenditure than food intake,
you will lose weight.
Engaging in physical activity is one big step that you can do to start changing
your lifestyle into a healthier and more active one. Being active would mean getting
yourself into active recreation such as sports, dances, and some outdoor type
activities.
INDOOR RECRATIONAL ACTVITIES
Badminton is believed to have originated from the game
“poona” that was played by English Army officers stationed in
India during the 17th century. It was later brought to England
in 1870‟s when the Duke of Beaufort held a lawn party in his
country place, Badminton. It was only in 1992 Barcelona
Olympics when the game became an Olympic sport with
singles and doubles events.
http://clipart-library.com/badminton-
Games are held inside the gym to avoid the effect
cliparts.html
of air in the flight of the shuttle. Players need a racket and a shuttle cock to enjoy the
game in a court.
The game requires the skills in service, strokes in hitting the shuttle such as
smash, drop, lob or clear and net shorts, and power of the leg in footwork.
The game is played by either singles, doubles, or mixed doubles. A game is
won when a player/s reach a score of 21 points. In case of a deuce (20-all), one has
to gain a two-point advantage over the other. But in case of a 29-all score, the first to
reach 30 will win the set. A match is won by winning two out of three sets.

 The beginning of Volleyball can be traced from
the ingenuity of William J. Morgan in 1895 at Holyoke
Massachusetts. Initially, the game was called
“mintonette” but in its first exhibition game
demonstration, Alfred Halstead suggested the name
“Volley Ball” due to the volleying characteristic of the
game. In 1910, the game was brought to the Philippines
by Elwood S Brown. The Filipinos are credited in the
changes of the game with the addition of the skill called
“spike or kill”. In 1964, volleyball had its first summer
Olympics exposure as a medal sport.
Volleyball is a team sports with six players in
http://clipart-library.com/clipart/1047489.htm each side of the court with a 9x18 meters dimension.
The object of the game is to send the ball over the net and avoid it from grounding into
your own court. A ball, net and a court are needed to play the game. Scoring follows
a rally point system. A game is won in a two out of three sets. A set is won by reaching
a score of 25. In case of a deuce, a team should have a two-point advantage over the
other. Players need skills like service, volleying, setting, spiking, and blocking to enjoy
much of the game and gain its fitness benefits.

Benefits of Sports
Badminton and volleyball are good recreation activities that involve the physical
dimension. It enhances the metabolism of the body which in turn is a factor in losing
weight. While playing badminton, the constant racket swings in receiving birdies, leg
stretches in saving net and drop shots, and power jumps for smashing burns more
calories. Volleyball on the other hand strengthens the upper body, arms and should
as well as the lower extremities when you serve, pass, set, spike and block when in
play. You can burn an approximately 7% of body fats in badminton, while burns 585
calories in a 45-minute game. Participation in both badminton and volleyball helps you
to manage your weight appropriate for your age and height. However, religious
indulgence in the two games can lead you to attaining your desired weight by losing
extra fat deposits. This can be achieved better when combined with proper diet.
Aside from the physical dimension, the games also have claims on affecting the
different dimensions of a person’s health. When players control their feelings during
games, the emotional dimension is involved. Since a sport is fun, the emotional
wellbeing is improved. Playing with strategies and tactics involves the intellectual
dimension. Thinking of ways on where to direct the shuttle and the ball gives you an
advantage of winning and enjoying the game. The social dimension is seen when
players build good relationships. Trusting your teammate builds camaraderie and
teamwork.

DANCE
Dance is another indoor alternative recreation
for those who enjoy the beat of rhythm and
movement. It is a fantastic and fun form of exercise
that gradually raises heart rate. That is why dance is
a very good cardio work out. Regular participation in
dance activities tightens and tones muscle groups
and burns more calories.

Zumba Fitness Dance

Zumba dance is an alternative indoor recreational activity with fitness benefit
claims. It was accidentally discovered by Alberto “Beto” Perez, a celebrity fitness
trainer of Colombia in the mid 90‟s. The birth of Zumba came about during one of his
aerobics class, when he realized that he had forgotten his aerobics music. Quickly, he
grabbed whatever tape he has in his backpack. It so happened that his tapes are those
of Latin music such as merengue and salsa. With his improvisation skill, he was able
to create an on-the –spot aerobics class using the non-traditional music. That is the
birth of the dance fitness craze Zumba!

Here are some of the benefit claims of Zumba:

 It improves cardiovascular health. A combination of cardio intervals brought

about by the fast and slow rhythms makes this dance a great cardio interval
work-out. The fast and upbeat moves of Zumba improve the delivery of blood
which carries oxygen to the different parts of the body through the veins,
arteries, and heart.
 It helps in losing weight. Zumba maximizes and burns more calories. Joining
Zumba workout for an hour burns approximately 600 calories.
 Stress Reliever -Zumba dancing releases more altering endorphins that melts
worries away.
 It tones the abdominals – the dance moves work on firmer core abdominal
muscles.
