Compare and contrast the physical activities that promote health-related and skill-related physical fitness.

Health-related fitness is related to the ability to perform activities of daily living without undue fatigue and is conducive to a low risk of premature hypokinetic diseases. The health-related fitness components are cardiorespiratory (aerobic) endurance, muscular strength and endurance, muscular flexibility, and body composition. Students should describe activities that are continuous and relatively long-lasting, use a majority of body muscles, and are moderate-to-vigorous in intensity. Skill-related fitness components consist of agility, balance, coordination, reaction time, speed, and power. These components are related primarily to successful sports and motor skill performance and might not be as crucial to better health.
