The main difference between health-related fitness and performance-related fitness is in terms of the goals of the training. The former is aimed at maintaining a good health. An example is at least 30 minutes to an hour of cardio like walking, running, or other activities. On the other hand, the latter is aimed at enhancing something and is not really that necessary. An example is weight training in order to tone muscles.
A smart player uses this technique when he realizes that none of his wide receivers or tight ends are far enough from a defender to safely throw the ball to.
