The document defines and provides examples of six types of skill-related fitness: agility, balance, coordination, power, speed, and reaction time. Agility is changing body position rapidly while maintaining motion. Balance is controlling body position when standing or moving. Coordination uses senses and body parts together during movement, such as dribbling a basketball. Power swiftly moves body parts with maximum muscle force, like football players muscling through opponents. Speed is moving the body or parts swiftly, as in a basketball fast break. Reaction time is responding quickly to stimuli, such as coming off starting blocks in a relay race.

Skill-related Fitness
1. Agility (Liksi) - Agility is the ability to change and control the
direction and position of the body while maintaining a constant, rapid motion. For example, changing directions to hit a tennis ball
2. Balance (Balanse) - is the ability to control or stabilize the
body when a person is standing still or moving. For example, in-line skating.
3. Coordination (Koordinasyon) - is the ability to use the senses
together with body parts during movement. For example, dribbling a basketball. Using hands and eyes together is called hand-eye coordination.
4. Power - is the ability to move the body parts swiftly while
applying the maximum force of the muscles. Power is a combination of both speed and muscular strength. For example, fullbacks in football muscling their way through other players and speeding to advance the ball and volleyball players getting up to the net and lifting their bodies high into the air
5. Speed (Bilis) - is the ability to move your body or parts of
your body swiftly. Many sports rely on speed to gain advantage over your opponents. For example, a basketball player making a fast break to perform a layup, a tennis player moving forward to get to a drop shot, a football player out running the defense to receive a pass
6. Reaction Time - is the ability to reach or respond quickly to
what you hear, see, or feel. For example, an athlete quickly coming off the blocks early in a swimming or track relay, or stealing a base in baseball.
