This module will understand all about fitness exercise from its appropriate
discussion to its meaningful knowledge. It would be best if you imbibed the importance
of fitness exercises.
As a citizen, you need to be "healthy and fit" for you to work productively and
function well in your field of work and specialization, and thru fitness exercises, you
can achieve that!

What is Fitness Exercise?

Definition of Fitness
 Fitness means being able to perform physical activity. It also means having the
energy and strength to feel as good as possible. Getting more fit, even a little
bit, can improve your health.

Definition of Exercise
 Exercise means a physical activity that is done to become stronger and
healthier.
 A particular movement or series of movements done to become stronger and
healthier.
 Something that is done or practiced to develop a particular skill.

Health and Fitness Guide


Walking, lifting weights, doing chores – it's all good. Regardless of what you
do, regular exercise and physical activity is the path to health and well-being. Exercise
burns fats, build muscles, lowers cholesterol, eases stress and anxiety.

4 PhEd 12: Fitness Exercises

1. Exercise and Weight Loss


What kind of exercise should I do?
It's a fact: You have to burn more calories than you eat and drink to lose weight.
It matters that you cut back on the calories that you eat and drink for weight
loss. That matters most for taking pounds off.
Exercise pays off in the long run by keeping those pounds off. Research shows that
regular physical activity will increase your chances of maintaining weight loss.
How much exercise should I do?
Start with just a few minutes of exercise at a time, which helps your body
slowly get used to being active. Your goal is to work up at least half an hour most days
of the week to get full benefits from exercise.
What kind of exercise should I do?
You can do anything that makes your heart and lungs work harder, such as
walking, biking, jogging, swimming, fitness classes, or cross-country skiing and
dancing routines. If you don't exercise and you're a man over 45, a woman over 55, or
have a medical condition, ask your doctor if you should avoid any types of activities.

2. How to Boost Your Metabolism with Exercise


Your next workout could set you up for a speedier metabolism. Your
metabolism includes all the things your body does to turn food into energy and keep
you going. Some people have a faster metabolism than others.
Some things that affect whether your metabolism is speedy or sluggish include
things you don't control, like your age, sex, and genes. Sometimes a sluggish thyroid
could decrease your metabolism. But once you find out that it is normal, speeding it up
is up to you. Focus on what does make a difference: exercise.
Muscle cells need a lot of energy, which means they burn a lot of calories.
They burn more calories than fat cells, even when you're not exercising. So the time
you spend working out reaps benefits long after you stop sweating.
Exercise becomes even more important as you get older. You naturally lose
muscle mass with age, which slows down your metabolism.

3. Making Time for Fitness


Want to work more fitness into your busy life? Aerobic exercises are designed
to improve the heart and lungs of the cardiovascular and respiratory systems. Muscle
strengthening is important, especially as we age, to prevent muscle bulk and strength
and overall fitness.
Chart records both aerobic activity and muscle-strengthening exercises are
important. Both are crucial for good health. Aerobic activity can help control weight
and lower your heart disease risk, diabetes, and many other conditions. Muscle
strengthening exercises are important for the same reasons but will also boost your
metabolism.

Lesson 1.2: Benefits of Exercise


for a Healthy Heart and Mental
Health and Workout Exercises

Lesson Summary

In this lesson, you will know the benefits of exercises and discuss how these
exercises contribute to your body. You will be executing the suggested exercises to
improve your body posture.

Learning Outcomes
1. Enumerate the benefits of exercise
2. Discuss how exercise contributes to our body
3. Execute suggested six exercises to improve body posture

Motivation Question

Have you ever been exercising? What are the benefits you gain from your
fitness exercise?

Discussion

Exercise Benefits

1. Exercise for a Healthy Heart


Your heart is a muscle, and it gets stronger and healthier if you lead an active
life. It's never too late to start exercising, and you don't have to be an athlete. Even
taking a brisk walk for 30 minutes a day can make a big difference.
Once you get going, you'll find it pays off. People who don't exercise are
almost twice as likely to get heart disease as active people.
Regular exercise can help you:
Burn calories
Lower your blood pressure
Reduce LDL "bad" cholesterol
Boost your HDL "good" cholesterol
2. Regular Exercise for Mental Health
Exercises relieve mental stress, and it restores mental energy.
3. Workout Plan that Improves Posture

8 PhEd 12: Fitness Exercises

Six Exercises for Better Posture

The best way to improve your posture is to focus on exercises strengthening


your core -- the abdominal and low back muscles connected to your spine and pelvis.
Some of these muscles move your torso by flexing, extending, or rotating your
spine. Others stabilize your pelvis and spine in a natural, neutral position. Old-style sit-
ups used only a few of these muscles, often with jerky momentum.
Today's yoga, Pilates, and core fitness programs target your entire core with slow,
controlled movements to get the most out of your workout.
Make these posture-boosting exercises a regular part of your routine.
Remember to exhale strongly and pull in your core muscles as you work -- a key
principle in Pilates and yoga.

1. Core Stabilizer: Single Leg Extension


Why It's Good for You: This move trains your core muscles to work together to stabilize
your pelvis.
Starting Position: Lie on your back with your knees bent, feet flat on the floor, and
hands behind your head. Press your low back into the floor, and curl your head up off
the floor.
The Move: Exhale strongly and pull your navel in and up toward your spine. Slowly
pull one knee into your chest, keeping your low back pressed to the floor while
extending your other leg straight at about a 45-degree angle off the floor. Keep your
abdominals pulled in and your low back on the floor. If your low back arches off the
floor, extend your leg higher toward the ceiling. Switch legs. Start with five to 10
extensions on each side.
Increase the Intensity: Pull both knees into your chest, then extend both legs straight at
about a 45-degree angle, using your core to keep your low back on the floor. Or, as you
extend your legs, extend both arms overhead, reaching in the opposite direction from
your legs.

abdominis (the six-pack muscle) and obliques (which run diagonally around your waist
and rotate your torso).
Starting Position: Lie on your back with your knees bent, feet flat on the floor. Press
your low back into the floor. Place your hands behind your head, or reach your arms
toward your knees if it doesn't create too much tension in your neck.
The Move: Exhale strongly and pull your navel in and up toward your spine. Curl your
head and shoulders slowly off the floor. Hold, then slowly lower back down. Repeat
three times
Increase the Intensity: Extend one leg straight at a 45-degree angle toward the ceiling.

3. Pilates Roll-Up / Yoga Sit-Up


Why It's Good for You: This move works the rectus abdominis, obliques, and transverse
abdominis (the deepest core muscles that wrap around your waist like a corset and pull
your abdomen inward and upward toward your spine.)
Starting Position: Lie on your back with your legs straight, your feet flexed, and your
arms reaching overhead on the floor. Press your low back into the floor.
The Move: Exhale strongly and pull your navel in and up toward your spine. Roll up in
slow motion, reaching your arms off the floor, then your shoulders and head, rolling up
one vertebra at a time until you're sitting up with your abdominals still pulled in. Slowly
roll back down. Repeat three to five times, adding more as your core gets stronger.
Increase the Intensity: Cross your arms over your chest as you roll-up.

4. Crossover
Why It's Good for You: This exercise works all the core muscles, focusing on the
obliques.
Starting Position: Lie on your back with your hands behind your head, your chest lifted
off the floor, knees pulled into your chest. Keep your low back pressed into the floor.

12 PhEd 12: Fitness Exercises

Starting Position: Begin on your hands and knees with your palms under your
shoulders. Extend both legs straight behind you, toes tucked under, into a position like
the top of a pushup. Pull your abdominal muscles in to prevent a "swayback," and gaze
down at the floor.
The Move: Hold the plank until you start feeling fatigued. Rest and then repeat. Keep
your abdominals pulled in and up so your low back doesn't sag as you exhale.
Increase the Intensity: Balance on your forearms instead of your hand.
We have all heard it many times before - regular exercise is good for you, and
it can help you lose weight. But if you are busy, you have a sedentary job, and you
haven't yet changed your exercise habits. The good news is that it's never too late to
start. You can start slowly and find ways to fit more physical activity into your life. To
get the most benefit, you should try to get the recommended amount of exercise for
your age. If you can do it, the payoff is that you will feel better, help prevent or control
many diseases, and likely even live longer. The payoff is that you will feel better, help
prevent or control many diseases, and likely even live longer.
Additional Benefits of Exercises
1. Help you control your weight.
Along with diet, exercise plays an important role in controlling your
weight and preventing obesity. To maintain your weight, the calories you eat and drink
must equal the energy you burn. To lose weight, you must use more calories than you
eat and drink.
2. Reduce your risk of heart diseases.
Exercise strengthens your heart and improves your circulation. The increased
blood flow raises the oxygen levels in your body. This helps lower your risk of heart
diseases such as high cholesterol, coronary artery disease, and heart attack. Regular
exercise can also lower your blood pressure and triglyceride levels.
3. Help your body manage blood sugar and insulin levels.
Exercise can lower your blood sugar level and help your insulin work better.
This can cut down your risk for metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes. And if you
already have one of those diseases, exercise can help you to manage it.
4. Help you quit smoking.
Exercise may make it easier to quit smoking by reducing your cravings and
withdrawal symptoms. It can also help limit the weight you might gain when you stop
smoking.
5. Improve your mental health and mood.
During exercise, your body releases chemicals that can improve your mood
and make you feel more relaxed. This can help you deal with stress and reduce your
risk of depression.
6. Help keep your thinking, learning, and judgment skills sharp as you age.
Exercise stimulates your body to release proteins and other chemicals that
improve the structure and function of your brain.
7. Strengthen your bones and muscles.
Regular exercise can help kids and teens build strong bones. Later in life, it can
also slow the loss of bone density that comes with age. Doing muscle-strengthening
activities can help you increase or maintain your muscle mass and strength.

9. Reduce your risk of falls.
Research shows that doing balance and muscle-strengthening activities in
addition to moderate-intensity aerobic activity can help reduce your risk of falling for
older adults.
10. Improve your sleep.
Exercise can help you to fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.
11. Improve your sexual health.
Regular exercise may lower the risk of erectile dysfunction (ED) in men. For
those who already have ED, exercise may help improve their sexual function. In
women, exercise may increase sexual arousal.
12. Increase your chances of living longer.
Studies show that physical activity can reduce your risk of dying early from
the leading causes of death, like heart disease and some cancers.
