PHYSICAL EDUCATION
GRADE 7
WEEK 3-1ST
LESSON 1: PREPARE AN EXERCISE PROGRAM

EXPECTATIONS
1. Performing stretching exercises aimed at improving my flexibility, and
2. Differentiating between warm-up and cool-down routines or procedures.

LOOKING BACK TO YOUR LESSON


1. How do you determine your Pa index?
2. What are the risk factors associated with a physically inactive or sedentary lifestyle?

PRE-TEST
I. Assess your exercise habits in terms of warm-up, stretching and cool-down exercise
routines. (Refer to questionnaire at the end of the lesson)
II. Why should you warm-up before any sports or exercise?

BRIEF INTRODUCTION
Warm-up enables me to increase my ability to perform more intensely by:
a. Increasing my body temperature which allows me to increase the rate and force of my
muscular contractions.
b. Increasing my heart rate and the blood flowing to my muscles; and
c. Increasing the activation of my central nervous system (CNS) resulting in improved
coordination, skill accuracy and reaction time.

ACTIVITY
A. General warm-up exercises- aim to achieve these effects and takes only 2-4 minutes. It is
expected that you are breathing quite heavily at the end of this short routine:
1. Jog forward, backwards, sideways
2. Skipping and crossovers
3. High knee and butt flicks
4. Progressive sprints (jog for 5 meters then sprint the next 10 meters)

Dynamic stretching exercises- specifically prepare the muscles for active contraction. They also
incorporate balance. However, they do not cause long-term improvement in flexibility because
of the short stretching time unlike the static stretching exercises which are performed after the
sports or exercise proper.

Dynamic stretching exercises:


1. Knee hug and calf-raise

2. Single leg deadlift


3. Lunge and twist

4. Inch worm

B . S p e c i f
-

refer to skills that the


sport
requires such as lay-up for basketball, dig passes for
volleyball or forehand rally for table tennis. These skills enable you to perform more effectively in
the training or game situation.

a. Perform the general warm-up and dynamic stretching exercises.


b. Perform static stretching exercises

Static stretching- is performed after the exercise or training session as a cool-down routine.
These exercises require you to hold or sustain your final stretched position to improve your
flexibility.

Cool-down- returns the body to resting state and promotes effective recovery. It serves the
following functions:

1. Slowly decreases the heart rate and overall metabolism, both of which have been
elevated during the workout,
2. Reduces tendency toward fainting and dizziness by preventing the sudden pooling
of blood in the legs and ensures adequate circulation to the skeletal muscles, heart, and
the brain; and

3. Aids in preventing or relieving spasms or cramps in fatigued muscles through static


stretching that also contributes to optimal flexibility improvements.

Static stretching exercises:


1. Hamstrings stretch 2. Quadriceps stretch

3. Groin stretch 4. Adductors stretch

5. Calf stretch 6. Trunks stretch

7. Shoulder stretches
CHECK YOUR UNDERSTANDING
Directions: Design a complete exercise program that consists of the different phases: warm-up,
dynamic stretching, workout, or activity proper (strengthening exercises) and cool-
down. Specify all the exercises that you are going to perform in each phase, the
corresponding repetitions and/or time as well as the intensity (specify your
target heart rate) of each exercise.
