Batangas. This song is in triple meter with Module5/page5

kumintang tempo. In this sing, the mutya expresses her feelings under the light of
the moon. She is mourning the loss of her love, which symbolizes the country’s loss
of freedom.

Physical activity is defined as any bodily movement that uses energy. It includes
different exercises such as walking, running, stretching, or even dancing and playing
different sports and doing household chores. Physical activity can be a passive or
active activity. Passive activities are those bodily movements using limbs which are
not active activities like computer games, texting, watching television and those
activities that you did not give any effort. On the other hand, active activities are any
forms of movements or exercises that use energy.
Fitness is a condition in which an individual has enough energy to avoid
fatigue and enjoy life. Physical fitness is divided into five health-related fitness
components and six skill-related fitness components.
Health-related fitness component is the ability to stay physically fit and
healthy namely: body composition, muscular strength, muscular endurance,
flexibility and cardiovascular endurance.
Skill-related fitness component develops one’s performance in athletic or
sports events. The following are agility, balance, coordination, power, speed and
reaction time.
How can you make a difference in the lives of teenagers like you in this
generation? Here’s how! All you have to do is create a physical activity program that
best suits your interests.
In making a physical activity program we must consider the FITT principle.
This principle helps you to create and develop your workout plan or program that will
be more effective in achieving your fitness goals. FITT stands for Frequency (how
often you exercise), Intensity (how hard you exercise), Time (how long you exercise),
and Type (what kind of exercise you do). (Press 2018)

The four elements you need to create your workout plan are as follows;
F- Frequency: How often one exercises

Beginners should try to exercise 3 to 4 times a week while

experienced or healthy individuals should aim for 5 to 6 days a
week.

I- Intensity: How hard one exercises

This refers to how hard you are working. Intensity is one of the most
important ways to determine if you are exercising at a level that
benefits your heart.

The training guidelines describe how to safely apply the six (6) principles
of training (overload, specificity, progression, reversibility, adaptation and
individual differences) into an exercise training program.

• Overload
- This refers to which training must be raised to a higher
level than normal to create the extra demands to which your
body will adapt.

• Specificity
- This training must be specific to the o
sport activity, the type of fitness required and the r
particular muscle groups.

12
LU_Q1_MAPEH7_Module3
 • Progression
- As your body adapts to training, you progress to a new level of
fitness. To then take this to the “new level’, a gradual increase in
intensity is needed to create an overload.

• Reversibility

- The effects of training are reversible. If effects is

reduced in intensity or even stopped, the benefit
can be lost quickly.

• Adaptation

- This refers to the body’s adaptability or eventually

turning new sport, activity, movement skill into second
nature.

• Individual Differences

- Each person has a different response to an

exercise or training program and each person
needs to exercise and train accordingly.

What is a Goal?
Goal is a future plan or desired results that a person or a group of people wants
to achieve in a specific timeline. It is similar to creating visions that enable a human
being to create tasks that lead to achieving anticipated results.

In creating goals, we need to consider the acronym SMART.

Specific. You should have clear and well-defined goal. Know what you really want
and what you want to achieve.
Measurable. You should have exact standards to measure your progress towards
achievement of your goal. Create specific standards to monitor the progress of your
work.
Achievable. Your goal should be realistic and not impossible to achieve. Make your
goal simple and easy to achieve to avoid delays and problems along the way.
Relevant. Your goal should be related to your life’s purpose. You should think and
consider your life’s values in making goals. Take consideration of your life’s practices
and make them as bases in creating a new life goal.
Time- bound. You should create a specific timeline of when to start working on your
set goals and when to end. The sense of urgency should be applied. It is not necessary
that you do your planned activities in a hurry but setting a specific time frame will
help you organize your tasks and your priorities.
When to set goals?
Goal Setting does not require a specific timeline on when and where you can set
your goals. Anytime of the day is perfect timing as long as you have already

13
LU_Q1_MAPEH7_Module3
identified and planned the things that you want to happen and achieve.
Why sets goals?
Numerous researches and studies have shown links between goals and
achievement in many fields. Setting goals enables you to have a sense of focus in
order to achieve the desired outcome you wish to have. This can also help you
organize your time and your resources so that you can make the most of your
abilities.
How to Plan Health-Related Fitness Activities?
The following actions are to be considered in planning for Health-Related Fitness
Activities:
1. Consider your fitness goals.
2. Create a balance routine.
3. Start easy to complex exercises.
4. Build activity into your daily routine.
5. Plan to include different Health-Related activities.
6. Try high- interval intensity training.
7. Allow time for recovery.
8. Note your progress.

Lesson
Changes during Adolescence
3
Target

Adolescence is the stage to determine your identity. Identity means how a

person sees himself in relation to his or her world. It means a sense of self or
individuality in context of life and what is going to happen in the future. The
adolescent learns to negotiate new responsibilities, evolving relationships, and
aa new sense of self. The process of adolescent development can become quite
challenging and sometimes overwhelming.
As you grow up, being healthy is not only your concern, but also changes in
physical, mental, emotional, social, moral-spiritual and environmental
dimensions which may occur in adolescent development. Try to identify the
general changes in your adolescence period.
This module will provide you with information and activities that will help
you understand the practices to holistic health.

Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELCs)

After going through this module, you are expected to:
1. Recognize changes in different aspects of growth that normally happen
during adolescence years. (H7GD-Ic-16)

You may be experiencing significant changes in yourself because you are now in
another stage of life-adolescence. Adolescence starts with puberty. Puberty is the
time when you start to become sexually mature. It usually happens at the age of 10
to 11 for girls and 11 to 12 for boys. Some adolescents experience puberty ahead or
later than others. You undergo significant changes in health dimensions-physical,
intellectual, emotional, social and moral-spiritual.
A. Physical Changes
The physical transformations observed during adolescence are, in most cases,
the result of hormonal changes as the teenager’s body is transformed from child to
adult. This phase, called puberty, starts between the ages of 9 and 16 and usually
ends between the ages of 18 and 22.
These are some of the general changes that happen to adolescent boys and girls
during puberty.
• There is a rapid increase in height and weight. Boys experience this usually two
years later than girls.
• Changes happen in the circulatory and respiratory system. The heart and lungs
grow bigger and work better, although the increase is more in boys than in girls.
• In body composition, muscles develop rapidly, although boy’s muscle grow faster
than girls. Body fat increases, although the increase in girl’s body fat is more than
boys.
