Aerobic Fitness

 Generally considered the most

important factor of good health and

fitness

 Aerobic fitness is linked to reduced risk

of high blood pressure, coronary heart

disease, obesity, diabetes,

osteoporosis, and some forms of cancer

Concept Sequence

 Elementary level: teach about the heart’s response to various intensities of activity;  Middle school: teach students about aerobic adaptations based on improved health and fitness levels  High School: help students to plan an exercise program based on their needs/goals  Work through THRZs and specific FITT principles

Intensity

 Max HR method: 208- (threshold -age)

 THR zone: multiply MHR by the intensity percentages desired (60-90%)  Once lower zone is determined, next zone is 10% higher

 Karvonen method: will determine HRR

 THRZ=[[[208-(.7 x age)] -RHR] x %] + RHR

Training Methods

 Continuous

 K-2: 3-5 min  3-5: 10 min  Middle & high: 20 + min  Overload & progression: increase the intensity or duration to provide additional health or fitness benefits

 Interval training: alternates short activity

with rest periods

 Natural intermittent activity of young children

 Although anaerobic in nature,

maintaining short rest intervals keeps

the activity more aerobic; HR will not

recovery fully

Safety

 Build rest intervals for younger children

 Make rest intervals optional for older

 Children will produce more body heat

than adults; provide water breaks

 Avoid hot, humid weather with younger

children; use good judgment with older

students
