Understanding of the definition of health related fitness


Being a health and Fitness Professional, is my job to understand the terms and definitions that are common to this industry, as well as to keep abreast of the evolving trends. From my experience, I have found that a number of terms deserves a little more clarifications to which they are granted.

Apart from clarifying the definition of health related fitness, this article aims to shed light on some of the associated terms and display their respective distinctions.

Is it just all in a name?

The fitness world seems to use the concept of health related fitness as a generic principle fitness - interchangeable with each other as "Physical Fitness", "Health and fitness" or simply "Fitness".

While all of these terms may be included under the broad term health and physical fitness, individually they refer to different aspects - generic and específicos.Por unfortunately, references to these and other related fitness often terms are vague, while consistency in its intended use is limited at best; there is a kind of "generally accepted" use for them, but individuals are often dependent on own interpretation, and this can lead to confusion.

What this said, does health related fitness simply infer fitness in good health?
Not exactamente.Por, we need to understand a little more behind these words of digesting the definition.

How the term health related Physical Fitness come?


Is a good question. what one could probably ask what this all - concept we can not simply use the terms "Fitness" or "Physical fitness" "instead"? what for what health "the related"?


The main reason comes from the fact that most terms of health and fitness are used inconsistently and often refer to different concepts or notions.After the 1996 report of the U.S. Surgeon General (physical activity and health; report of the surgeon general), there was a movement to try and address the alarming rise of obesity levels public American. Standardization requires studies and initiatives among doctors, health professionals and trainers fitness to deal with the task at hand.Enter "Health related physical Fitness", a term working to tackle health to the public at large.

The definition of health related fitness

According to the American College of sports medicine (ACSM), the principal authority in this field, ineffective definitions with clear and subjective formulations as well as the definitions which contains terms which in turn requires defining, has contributed to confuse the term "Physical Fitness."

There is no reliable guide to health and fitness professionals measure "Physical Fitness", because it defines the term has been so freely and inconsistently.Therefore, is that one must take into account the concept of health related fitness.Therefore, the definition focuses on five components of physical fitness that relate to the "good health".These components are:
Cardiorespiratory Fitness membership body FlexibilidadFuerza muscularResistencia muscularPor elsewhere, competition related fitness components are:
ReacciónCoordinaciónAgilidad VelocidadAlimentaciónDe BalanceTiempo agreement centres for the control and prevention (CDC), the definition of fitness diseases emphasizes the difference between Physical Fitness and Athletic Fitness related health physics capacity.Your starting point is "health" of the nation in U.S., often referred to as the "public health perspective".In this regard, 5 of the health related fitness components are more important than those related to the possibility of Athletic (or related components ability).

Although the concept of health related fitness has a comprehensive partnership with "good health", discusses the 5 components individually by health professionals to allow its measurement.

Now that we have a deeper understanding of the term, for what purpose it serves?

Continuing from where the definition left, measuring components 5 seeks advise customers on their own particular fitness related health and use data obtained from tests to designing proper exercise which can then be evaluated programs.

5 Components contribute equally to form a holistic health related fitness which is of direct interest to the health of ordinary citizens that the concept is normativo.En other words, is a standard that allows for consistent enforcement.

Therefore, it is important for those working in the industry not to error "overall physical fitness" fitness and health with "Health related physical fitness."

Finally, let's consider this distinction between physics and health fitness related activities

It must be borne in mind that the regular physical exercise can improve overall Physical Fitness as well as related health fitness.Sin however, total fitness is a generic term and is up to the subjective interpretation, while health related fitness can be assessed.

The distinction therefore between these two terms, exists within the meaning of health related Physical Fitness can be measured according to a set of comparative standards.

This is where the "rubber hits the road".the guidelines established by the ACSM allow health professionals to work with clients to assess and measure your response to exercise and prescribe exercise adecuado.Progreso client programs, then you can monitor and adjusted when necessary in order to obtain the desired fitness goals.
