constitute each component.
 3. Relate each fitness parameter:
cardiorespiratory endurance, muscle
strength and endurance, flexibility and
body composition, to health risks
associated with a sedentary lifestyle.
4. Using this information, write my own
fitness plan that contains activities in
the proper frequency, intensity and
duration so I may achieve my fitness
goals.
