This course builds on motor skills from core training and provides a variety of exercise programs to enhance cardiorespiratory and musculoskeletal fitness. It includes speed and agility training with a focus on coordination and balance. Learners will be able to set fitness goals and apply exercise principles to adapt movements for independent physical activities, periodically evaluating their fitness progress. The document then discusses fundamental body movements like locomotor, non-locomotor, and manipulative movements. It also defines movement, body mechanics, and some principles of proper body mechanics.

This course builds on the foundation of motor skills
achieved through core training. It will provide experiences in a variety of exercise programs to maintain and enhance cardiorespiratory and musculoskeletal fitness. It includes speed and agility training with a focus on body coordination and balance. In conjunction with fitness and wellness concepts, exercise, and healthy eating principles, learners will be able to enhance their fitness through goal setting and application of the exercise principles to adapt their movement competencies to independent physical activity pursuits and periodically evaluate their physical activity and eating patterns to monitor their progress and achievement of personal fitness and dietary goals. MOVEMENT AND MOVEMENT EXPERIENCES MOVEMENT
Is the process of any change in the position of
the body (or a body part) in space, ranging from the ever-so-slight, such as the involuntary blink of an eye, to the most strenuous of vigorous whole-body activities, like sprinting. Fundamental Body Movements
Are basic body movements that serve as the
foundational building blocks upon which more complicated physical movements are built. Locomotor, non-locomotor, and manipulative movements are three types of movements completed by the body. Locomotor Movements
Involve moving the body through space from one
location to another. Non-Locomotor Movements
Occur when the body moves in place around the
spine or axis of the body. Manipulative Movements
Are movements that involve using a body part to
move an object or item. BODY MECHANICS Is simply, the study of the human movement. Also called as, biomechanics and kinesiology, it applies the popular principles of engineering and physics to basic human movement. Body mechanics training occurs when appropriate body movement is applied in correcting and preventing poor posture, reducing stress on ligaments, tendons and joints and in enhancing physical capabilities.
