Glossary of Fitness Terms AEROBIC EXERCISE: Sustained exercise done at an intensity which allows the (With Oxygen) muscles to utilize oxygen for energy. Examples of a Aerobic exercise is: Walking/Jogging Swimming Cross training Cycling Aerobic Dance Stair Climbing ANAEROBIC EXERCISE: Exercise characterized by short bursts of activity, (Without Oxygen) cannot be sustained for long periods of time and Oxygen is not used by to muscles for energy. Examples of anaerobic exercise are: Sprinting Exercising above your target training zone BODY COMPOSITION: A workout that includes strength training, muscle endurance, flexibility and cardio respiratory conditioning. CARDIORESPIRATORY FITNESS: The ability of the heart and respiratory (Oxygen Flow) systems to sustain work effectively under stress. CARDIOVASCULAR FITNESS: The ability of the heart and blood vessels (Blood Flow) to transport blood. CROSS TRAINING: A circuit that combines weight training and aerobic exercise stations set in a sequential order, to give the participant a complete balanced workout. DURATION: The length of time spent in a workout. FLEXIBILITY: The capacity of the joints to move through a full range of motion. (Dependent upon the elasticity of the surrounding muscles) FREQUENCY: How often a participant works out (per Week). INTENSITY: How much energy is exerted during a workout. MUSCULAR ENDURANCE: The ability of the muscles to apply force repeatedly. MUSCULAR STRENGTH: The Maximal one-effort force that can be exerted against a resistance. REPETITIONS: The number of consecutive contractions performed TARGET TRAINING ZONE: The heart rate range within which the heart should beat to safely achieve desired fitness benefits. TRAINING EFFECT: Vigorous exercise stresses the body so that it adapts and improves. The phenomenon of stress adaptation is called the “training effect”.
