Mindtrap…Can you guess the answer?• If three cats catch three mice in three
minutes, how many cats would be needed to catch 100 mice in 100 minutes?
Slide 1 of 21
Section 13.2 Setting Goals for Lifelong Fitness
The answer is…..• The same three cats would do. Since these three
cats are averaging one mouse per minute, given 100 minutes, the cats could catch 100 mice.

Planning a Fitness Program• Lifelong fitness is the ability to stay healthy and fit
as you age.
• To plan a successful fitness program you should define your goals, develop your program, and monitor your progress.
Section 13.2 Setting Goals for Lifelong Fitness
Slide 6 of 21
Define Long-Term GoalsAn important long-term goal of any fitness program should be lifelong fitness.
• Choose activities that you enjoy and can continue as you age.
• Vary your activities from day to day.
• Combine exercise with social activities whenever possible.
Section 13.2 Setting Goals for Lifelong Fitness
Slide 7 of 21
Define Short-Term Goals• In planning a fitness program, you also need to know
your more immediate, or short-term goals.
• Your goals should be specific to help you measure your progress.
• Your time frame for reaching your goals also needs to be realistic.
Section 13.2 Setting Goals for Lifelong Fitness
Slide 8 of 21
Develop Your Fitness Plan• Develop a fitness plan by marking a calendar with
your typical weekly schedule.
• Your Health If you have health concerns, work with your doctor to devise an appropriate fitness plan.
• Your Budget Do the activities require special equipment or fees?
• Where You Live What activities are appropriate for the area where you live? Will you have to alter your plans when the seasons change?

Brain Teaser
• Question:– I can be quick and then I’m deadly, I am a rock,
shell and bone medley. If I was made into a man, I’d make people dream, I gather in my millions by ocean, sea and stream.

The FITT Formula• FITT formula stands for frequency, intensity, time, and type.
• Frequency To become or stay physically fit, you should exercise at least 3 to 5 times a week.
• Intensity Target heart rate is the rate at which your cardiovascular system receives the most benefits from exercise without working too hard.
• Time The amount of time you spend exercising affects your level of fitness.
• Type To prevent boredom and overuse injuries, you should practice cross-training by participating in a wide variety of activities.

Monitor Your Progress• You may find that you look better, sleep better, and
feel more alert.
• You might also notice that you have gained muscle strength or lost weight.
• One good indicator of improved fitness is a drop in your resting heart rate.

Monitor Your ProgressA chart, such as this one, can help you monitor your progress.
Section 13.2 Setting Goals for Lifelong Fitness
Slide 15 of 21
Alter Your Fitness Plan• As your fitness improves, your workouts may
become too easy.
• By slightly increasing the intensity or time of your workout, you should continue to see positive results.
• Remember that, no matter what your fitness goals are, you need to combine your exercise program with healthy eating habits.

EXERCISE TIME
• 10 Squats with the ball held above your head• 10 Pushups with your hands on the ball• 10 Situps• 10 Back Extensions

Phases of Exercise• The safest workouts begin with a warm-up period
and end with a cool-down period.
• Stretching exercises should be part of both the warm-up and cool-down periods.
Section 13.2 Setting Goals for Lifelong Fitness
Slide 18 of 21
Warming Up and Stretching• A warm-up is a five- to ten-minute period of mild
exercise that prepares your body for a vigorous workout.
• A warm-up should include some of the same motions as your planned activity, but at a slower pace.
• Your warm-up should also include five to ten minutes of stretching.
• Hold stretches for 15 seconds.
Section 13.2 Setting Goals for Lifelong Fitness
Slide 19 of 21
The Workout• The workout is when you perform an activity at its
peak level.
• To be effective, your workout should follow the FITT formula.
Section 13.2 Setting Goals for Lifelong Fitness
Slide 20 of 21
Cooling Down and Stretching• The cool-down is a period of mild exercise, such as
walking, performed after a workout.
• Your cool-down should be at least as long as your warm-up.
• Stretching after your cool-down loosens muscles that may have tightened during exercise.
• Spend at least five minutes repeating the stretches you did during your warm-up period.

“Target Heart Rate Zone”
• What does the term “Target Heart Rate Zone” mean?
Section 13.2 Setting Goals for Lifelong Fitness
“Target Heart Rate Zones”
– It is the zone in which your heart and body are making the most gains from your exercise without being over-exerted!
– Five levels of heart rate zones:• Warm up zone,• Fat burning zone, • Aerobic zone,• Anaerobic zone,• RED LINE --THE LIMIT!
Section 13.2 Setting Goals for Lifelong Fitness
Finding your “Pulse”• You have two carotid arteries; one on either side of your neck. To find your carotid
artery, first find your adam's apple, then move two fingers to the right or left. You should be able to feel your pulse here. You can also check your brachial artery on the inside of your arm just above your bicep or the radial pulse in your wrist, although your pulse at these locations may be slightly weaker.
Section 13.2 Setting Goals for Lifelong Fitness
How to take heart rate?
• Your heart rate is the number of times your heart beats in one minute.
• In order to figure your heart rate, you will need a clock with a second hand or a stop watch. Once you have found your pulse, you'll want to begin timing. You can time yourself for one minute, or 10 seconds (and multiply by 6), or 6 seconds (and multiply by 10). 6 second heart rates are the simplest to do, but one minute counts are the most accurate.
Section 13.2 Setting Goals for Lifelong Fitness
Heart Rate Definitions
• Resting Heart Rate (RHR): The number of times your heart pumps in one minute when your body is at rest.
• Maximum Heart Rate (MHR): The maximum number of times your heart can pump in one minute.
• Target Heart Rate (THR): The pace you want your heart to beat while exercising. It is 60-80% of your maximum heart rate.
Section 13.2 Setting Goals for Lifelong Fitness
Standard Target Heart Rate Formula
Max heart rate (MHR): Max heart rate (MHR): 220 – your age = max heart rate220 – your age = max heart rate
Target heart rate zone:Target heart rate zone: 60% - 80% of MHR60% - 80% of MHR 0.6 x MHR to 0.8 x MHR0.6 x MHR to 0.8 x MHR
