Strength and Cardio-Vascular Endurance

Strength and Cardio-Vascular Endurance

The components of fitness I am going to develop are both strength and

cardio-vascular endurance. I want to develop my strength and

cardio-vascular endurance because I want to improve in cricket. I want

to develop my strength for cricket because I could bowl faster, my

shots would be harder and throw would be power-full even though they

are from the boundary line. I am developing my upper body strength

because in cricket you need the upper body strength for example while

batting, bowling and fielding. The definition of strength is: The

power of resist force, sonlitiy old tufness AND the qualities of

bodies by which they endure the application of force .You need

strength in your daily life, especially if you play sport for

Example, to lift a suitcase or if you play football then strength is

need to kick the ball. If your strength is too little, you risk injury

when you lift, pull or push things.

I want to develop my cardio-vascular endurance for cricket because I

don’t want to get tired during a match. The definition of

cardio-vascular endurance is: The ability of your heart to deliver

oxygen to your muscles over long periods of exercise. Lungs are also

involved in this so another name for cardio-vascular endurance is

cardio respiratory endurance.

Most of the instruments I am going to use are from the gym. The

instruments I am going to use to develop my cardio-vascular endurance

are: Upright bike, recumbent bike, treadmill and steeper. The

instruments I am going to use to develop my strength are: Chest press,

bicep curls, tricep curls and shoulder press. For my P.E.P I don’t

have to use the gym. I can do some of the activities at home for

example, I could ride the bike around my block three times, I could

walk or jog around the park or I could use weights at home. In my

games lesson I attend the gym three times in two weeks although I

could go to the gym in my own time.
