Flash Cards: Adapt and Achieve

Strength training involves exercises that improve muscle power and bone strength through resistance, such as push-ups and squats.

Endurance training enhances muscle stamina and aerobic fitness, often through activities like running or jumping jacks.

The musculoskeletal system includes bones, muscles, cartilage, tendons, and ligaments that support movement and stability.

The body adapts by strengthening bones and muscles, increasing muscle endurance, and enhancing flexibility through regular physical activity.

Bodyweight exercises use the individual's own weight for resistance, examples include push-ups and squats.

Recovery allows muscles to repair and grow, preventing injury and enhancing overall performance.

Team activities promote cooperation, participation, and effort, fostering a supportive environment without competition.

Resistance training enhances muscle strength by working against an external force, like weights or resistance bands.

Cardiovascular activities increase heart rate and stamina, including running, cycling, and jumping rope.

Muscle stamina is the ability of muscles to sustain repeated contractions over time, critical in endurance sports.

Effective stretching techniques include static, dynamic, and PNF stretches, which improve flexibility.

Joint range of motion is the full movement potential of a joint, important for effective physical performance.

A personal best refers to an individual’s best performance or achievement in physical activity, promoting self-improvement.

Warming up prepares the body for exercise by increasing heart rate and loosening muscles, reducing the risk of injury.

Overtraining can lead to fatigue, injury, decreased performance, and burnout in athletes.

Physical adaptation can be evaluated through improvements in strength, endurance, and flexibility over time.

Exercise variations prevent plateaus in performance and stimulate different muscle groups, enhancing overall fitness.

Recognition boosts motivation and effort, encouraging students to engage positively with physical activities.

Regular physical activity enhances physical health, mental well-being, and social connections.
