What I Need to Know
A family that is physically fit reflects a sense of well- being. It is the basic
foundation in achieving goals and is essential for a productive society. As your family
work with your own fitness goal, you are also setting an example to the community.
Achieving fitness with your family does not mean you must all go to the gym
together to work-out though this works for some families most especially if children
can manage themselves. Actually incorporating natural activities or doing household
chores into the course of the day mean a lot in terms of health related fitness.
Family fitness enhances the health and mood of every member of the family,
whatever the age. People who are physically fit are at reduced risk for a variety of
illnesses and disabilities. They are less likely to have heart disease, high blood
pressure, diabetes and some types of cancer. People who exercise regularly have
fewer feelings of depression and anxiety and feel a heightened sense of well-being.
Fitness also keeps weight down and helps build and maintain healthy bones, muscles
and joints.
In this module you will be reviewed to health-related fitness and its components.
Also, you and your family member will reflect on your level of physical fitness. With
these, you are encouraged to conduct physical activity and physical fitness
assessment of your family/ peers and may this be beneficial to you.
At the end of this learning module the learners should be able to:
a. identify health related fitness components involved/ used in the activity
b. reflect on the level of fitness of the family members.
The Facilitator shall regularly monitor the Learner’s Development of their module,
guiding them on their different reading materials, outputs, activities and providing
all necessary information needed to facilitate the progress of the learners.

What’s In?
In your past activity, you have undertaken physical activity and physical fitness
assessments which includes the following health related fitness components;
1. Body composition,the ratio of body fat to lean body mass. Having too much fat
tissue is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, cancer and arthritis.
2. Cardiovascular Endurance, the ability of the heart and lungs to deliver oxygen
through working muscles and tissues.
3. Muscular Strength, this refers to the muscles’ ability to generate force against
physical objects.In the fitness world, this typically refers to how much weight
you can lift for different strength training exercises.
4. Flexibility,refers to the ability of the joints to move through a full range of motion.
5. Muscular Endurance, the ability of the muscle to work over a prolonged period
of time without fatigue.
Therefore, in order for an individual to be physically fit, he/she must have balance
cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength and endurance, flexibility and percent of
body mass.
In this module, you are encouraged to conduct physical activity and assess the
physical fitness level of your family members/ peers. Following the activities you have
done in your previous lesson for your physical fitness assessment.
With this, you and your family will have a deeper understanding of the importance

Physical fitness is made up of 11 parts - 6 of them health related and 5 skill
related. All of the parts are important to good performance in physical activity,
including sports. But the 6 are referred to as contributing to health-related physical
fitness because scientists in kinesiology have shown that they can reduce your risk
of chronic disease and promote good health and wellness. These parts or
components of Health Related Fitness
