Components of fitness

1. the ability to maintain centre of mass over a base of support, useful to maintain positions in performance sports (static balance) or when on the move in any other sporting situation (dynamic balance).
6. the ability to move two or more body parts at the same time smoothly and efficiently, to allow effective application of technique.
8. Sport involving repetitive strokes to propel a boat.
9. the relative ratio of fat mass to fat-free mass in the body allowing variation in body composition dependent on the sport.
10. Long-distance race requiring sustained cardiovascular effort.
12. Riding waves on a board, requiring stability.
13. Fast-paced game with rapid exchanges of a small ball.
16. Short-distance race demanding maximum velocity.
17. distance divided by time to reduce time taken to move the body or a body part in an event or game.
20. the ability of the muscular system to continue to contract at a light to moderate intensity to allow repetitive movements throughout a long event or game.
21. Competitive lifting of heavy weights.

2. the ability to change direction quickly to allow performers to out-manoeuvre an opponent.
3. the ability of the cardiorespiratory system to supply oxygen and nutrients to the muscles to sustain low to medium intensity work to delay fatigue.
4. time the time taken between a stimulus and the start of a response, useful in fast-paced sports to make quick decisions about what to do.
5. Event involving throwing a heavy spherical object.
7. Team sport requiring quick directional changes.
11. Sport showcasing acrobatic manoeuvres and suppleness.
14. Racket sport demanding precise hand-eye synchronization.
15. the maximum force that can be generated by a muscle or muscle group to improve forceful movements within an activity.
18. the range of motion possible at a joint to allow improvements in technique.
19. the product of speed and strength to allow for explosive movements in sport.
