vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Explanation:

Engaging in physical activities (such as exercise) helps in maintaining good health. Exercise assists in breaking down excess fat in the body (thus preventing obesity) which on the long run could lead to atherosclerosis; thus it can be said that exercise reduces the risk of heart diseases since atherosclerosis is a risk factor for several heart diseases.

Physical activities also help to maintain blood sugar levels - this is done by the muscle cells that use up more glucose (from sugar) during exercise. Thus, as the glucose is taken up (by insulin) and then broken down the cells, less glucose is present in the blood.

Physical activities also assist in improving brain function; as the heart pumps more oxygen during this period, the brain also receives a good portion of this oxygen and some other hormones which makes a good environment for brain cells.

From the benefits discussed above, it can be seen that exercise can help in the prevention of some diseases (such as diabetes, obesity, brain damage) and can also help in reducing the risk of some diseases (such as cardiovascular diseases).

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

           

Explanation:

Soccer -- aerobic

Wall sits -- anaerobic

Max lift bench press -- strength

Jogging -- aerobic

Sprinting -- anaerobic

Stretching -- flexibility

Planks -- both strength and endurance

Basketball -- aerobic

Squats -- anaerobic

Speed walking -- aerobic

Sit-ups -- anaerobic

Yoga -- flexibility

Swimming -- aerobic

Aerobic fitness -- it is an ability for our bodies to transport and use the oxygen, in order to produce the energy we need for our muscles. During aerobic fitness, our heart rate and breathing increase for some period of time.

Anaerobic fitness -- oxygen is not used. Compared to the aerobic fitness, it is more quick, more energy is used, and the maximum effort is performed, and it lasts shorter than aerobic fitness.

Flexibility  -- it includes stretching, yoga, Tai-Chi. It is good because it lengthens our muscles. It increases physical and mental relaxation, it prevents our bodies from injuries, reduces soreness.

Muscular strength -- it's occurring in a short period of time and the maximum of our strength is used. By definition, it is the amount of force a single muscle can produce with a single MAXIMAL effort.

Muscular endurance --  the word says it itself -- how much we can endure.

Compared to the strength, which is manifested in a short amount of time, but used to its maximum, in this type of exercise we are more focused on the enduring. It is muscle's ability to endure repeated action against a resistance for a certain amount of time.
