PATHFIT 1

Cardiorespiratory Fitness
& Locomotor Skills
Training
Exercise Recommendations
for CRF Cardiorespiratory
Fitness Training Strategies
OVERVIEW OF THE TOPIC
Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) refers to the capacity of
the circulatory and respiratory systems to supply oxygen to
skeletal muscle mitochondria for energy production needed
during physical activity. CRF is an important marker of
physical and mental health and academic achievement in
youth.
Locomotor skills enable the learner to move through
different environments, moving their bodies from one place to
another. The key locomotor skills are walking, running,
jumping, hopping, crawling, marching, climbing, galloping,
sliding, leaping, hopping, and skipping.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
1. Familiarize with the CRF and
locomotor skills.
2. Active participation.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
At the end of the week, the students are
expected to:
1. defined Cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF);
2. performed the different locomotor skills
that promote CRF; and
3. appreciated the importance of locomotor
skills that promote CRF.
Activity1: ““PICTURE paint a thousand WORDS””
Directions:Cross out the words that show non-
locomotor skills.

Activity 2:“Now It Makes Sense”
Directions: Using the above information
you got from the previous activity and
your previous knowledge about
locomotor and non-locomotor skills try
to connect them all to make sense of
the difference between those skills.
Locomotor Skills

Locomotor skills enable children to move through


different environments, moving their bodies from
one place to another. The key locomotor skills are
walking, running, jumping, hopping, crawling,
marching, climbing, galloping, sliding, leaping,
hopping, and skipping.
How do locomotor movements help develop
physical fitness?

Increasing stability, and building strong muscles,


heart, and bones. Development of their
locomotor skills such as walking, running,
hopping, and climbing. Enhancing their thinking
and problem-solving skills. The emergence of
manipulative skills - fine motor skills, like
squeezing, grasping, pinching, etc.
What is Cardiorespiratory endurance?
Cardiorespiratory endurance is the ability of
the lungs, heart, and blood vessels to deliver
adequate amounts of oxygen to the cells to
meet the demands of prolonged physical
activity. It is the single most important
component of health-related physical
fitness. Aerobic exercise is important in pre
What are the benefits of increasing
cardiorespiratory fitness through exercise?
Increasing cardiorespiratory endurance has
a positive effect on your overall health. Your
lungs and heart are able to better use
oxygen. This allows you to exercise for
longer periods without getting tired. Most
people can increase their cardiorespiratory
endurance by doing regular exercise.
High levels of physical activity and
cardiorespiratory fitness are associated with
lower all-cause and cardiovascular
mortality. Furthermore, physical activity can
reduce the development of chronic
diseases such as hypertension, diabetes,
stroke, and cancer.

What to know about cardiorespiratory endurance
Cardiorespiratory endurance is an indication of a person’s overall
physical health. Cardiorespiratory endurance tests monitor how well
the heart, lungs, and muscles perform during moderate to high-
intensity exercise.

Increasing cardiorespiratory endurance improves oxygen uptake in


the lungs and heart and can help a person sustain physical activity for
longer.

Other names for cardiorespiratory endurance include cardiovascular


fitness, cardiovascular endurance, and cardiorespiratory fitness.
Cardiorespiratory endurance measures how well the body
performs during long periods of exercise. A person with high
cardiorespiratory endurance can sustain high-intensity
activities over an extended period without getting tired.

Measuring a person’s cardiorespiratory endurance involves


examining how well their body takes in and utilizes oxygen.

When a person inhales, their lungs fill up with air and some of the
oxygen it contains passes into the bloodstream. This oxygen-rich
blood then travels to the heart, which circulates it around the body
to the tissues and organs that need it.
The muscles require an adequate supply of
oxygen and other nutrients to work properly
during high-intensity or extended periods of
exercise. If the muscles do not get enough
nutrients, waste products begin to accumulate
and cause fatigue.

A person’s level of cardiorespiratory endurance


can directly affect their physical performance.
Why is it important?
Cardiorespiratory endurance indicates a person’s
level of aerobic health and physical fitness. This
information can benefit everyone, not just
professional athletes.

Having a high cardiorespiratory endurance


generally means that a person can perform high-
intensity exercise for longer.
People trying to lose weight may want to focus on
increasing their cardiorespiratory endurance
because doing higher-intensity aerobic activities
can help a person burn more calories.

Scientific research also suggests some other


potential health benefits from having an
improved cardiorespiratory endurance.
