Introduction

Physical Education came from the Latin word meaning “physica”, meaning
physics and “educatio”, meaning the training of the bodily organs power with a view to
the promotion of hearts and vigor (Wikipedia 2015).

To have a sound body. one must have sound mind; thus being in a state of mental
health. The World Health Organization (WHO) defines health as a state of complete
COURSE MODULE

physical, mental, social wellness, not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.

The definition emphasizes health as a positive state of well-being not just absence of
disease. People in a state of emotional, physical and social well-being fulfill life
responsibilities effectively in daily life, and are satisfied with their interpersonal
relationships and themselves.

Physical Education is an integral part of general education which aims to develop the
physical, social. emotional, spiritual, and the mental traits of man through the physical
activities.

The philosophy of Physical Education emphasized using activities to reach valuable

educational goals, the mental, social, spiritual, and moral goals.

The main idea of Physical Education is to help the students acquire skills and develop an
affection for the activities themselves.

It aims to help students develop physical competence skills and good habits. It assists in
developing smart, competent intelligent individuals. It refers to the individual growth and
development of the total body movement, safety when it comes to physical activities.

Instruction in various kinds of physical activity promotes the physical development and
well-being of the individual.

Physical education is generally taught in pre-school, elementary, secondary, and tertiary

levels.

Sports, and Recreation and Leisure is the proper classification for physical education
both from logical perspective. It provides opportunities for socialization as well as for the
development of capacities of the individual.

Discussion

You only get one body; it is the temple of your soul.

Even God is willing to dwell there, if you truly treat your body
like a temple, it will serve you well for decades.
If you abuse it, you must be prepared for poor health and a lack of energy.
- Samuel Aunweor

SKILLS-RELATED COMPONENTS OF PHYSICAL FITNESS

1. Agility — the ability to change

direction quickly.
2. Balance — the ability to remain
stable even when moving.
3. Coordination — the ability to use
vision, touch and muscle sense.
4. Power — simply defined as the
ability to release maximum strength.
5. Reaction time — the amount of time
it takes to make a physical response
once you see the need to take an
action.
6. Speed— the rate at which one
covers distance in a short period of
time.
COURSE MODULE

HEALTH-RELATED COMPONENTS

1. Cardiovascular fitness — from the word

cardio, which means heart, the ability to
exercise at an elevated heart rate for a
designated time while supplying adequate
oxygen to the body.
2. Flexibility — the ability to move joint with
ease through the normal range of motion
and muscles to their fullest extent.
3. Endurance — the ability to exercise
without tiring in a long period of time.
4. Strength — the ability to exert force
against resistance in a short period of time.
5. Body composition — ideally, a state in
which body fat does not exceed 25 percent
of the total body composition.

Physical fitness is essential to healthy growth and development. The components of physical
fitness can be grouped into two categories: Skills related and Health related.
The emotional aspects stated that the participating in leisure time activities, games and sports
related are satisfaction, attitude and values. The kinds of physiological benefits can be derived from
participating in sports-related fitness.

SAFETY AND EXERCISE PROTOCOLS

Physical activity carries risks as well as

benefits. The most common adverse
effects of physical activity are burnout
and musculoskeletal injury. Depending
on the type of activity, injury risk can be
augmented with increased intensity,
frequency and duration of activity. To
minimize the risk of activity-induced
injuries, you should be aware of the signs
of over-exertion (such as breathlessness
and muscle soreness), and take
reasonable precautions.

Here are some exercise precautions and

safety tips:
 MODULE NO.2

 Wear comfortable clothing and well-padded shoes that can protect the heels and arches of
the feet;
 Put on appropriate gear for the activity, such as helmets and protective pads for cycling;
 Always warm up before doing exercise and cool down afterwards to lower the risk of strains
and sprains;
 Take appropriate breaks during the activity;
 Do not exercise with an empty stomach. Eat something light (such as toast with jam or
skimmed milk) to give you some stamina. Do not exercise immediately after a full meal
because this will affect digestion;
 Replenish extra fluids before, during and after physical activity, especially for prolonged
exercise like hiking;
 Beware of the weather and environmental conditions. Avoid doing outdoor vigorous
exercises in hot or humid weather;
 Listen to the body. Do not exercise when unwell. If there is dizziness, shortness of breath, chest
pain, nausea or vomiting, or muscle and joint pain during exercise, stop the activity and seek
medical advice as soon as possible.

Observe the following prior to actual day of testing.

1. The testing area should be safe and free from obstructions.

2. Wear appropriate physical fitness attire: t-shirt, jogging pants, rubber shoes.
3. You should not take food or drinks 3 hours before taking the BMI test.
4. Conduct warm up exercise and dynamic stretching exercises before the test.

Assessment

A. CALCULATE YOUR BODY MASS INDEX

BMI (body mass index) is a measure of whether you're a healthy weight for your height.

The formula is BMI = kg/m2 where kg is a person’s weight in kilograms and m2 is their height in meters
squared.

Follow these steps to calculate your BMI:

Convert your weight from pounds to kilograms.
 MODULE NO.2
Your weight (in pounds) ÷ 2.2 = your weight (in kilograms). For example, 132 pounds ÷ 2.2 kilograms =
60 kilograms.
Convert your height from inches to meters.
Your height (in inches) ÷ 39.37 = your height (in meters). For example, 65 inches ÷ 39.37 meters = 1.65
meters.

Calculate your Body Mass Index.

Your weight (in kilograms) ÷ [your height (in meters) x your height (in meters)] = BMI. For example, 60
kilograms ÷ (1.65 meters’ x 1.65 meters) = 22.03.
BMI is usually calculated in kilograms and meters, but if you feel more comfortable using pounds and
feet, this formula will work for you:

After calculating your BMI, you can determine whether you’re at a healthy weight:

HEALTHY WEIGHT: BMI of 19 to 24.9

OVERWEIGHT: BMI of 25 to 29.9

COURSE MODULE

OBESE: BMI of 30 and above
