INSTRUCTIONAL ACTIVITIES
Part I What to KNOW
This is the part where the learners will gain knowledge

on various activities that deals with being fit. They will be
provided with activities that will assess what they know,
stimulate their interest, and elevate their understanding and
level of excitement in the various topics. This part of the
module will help them get started and prepare them for the
succeeding parts.
Activity 1: WARM YOU UP
This activity prepares the body for strenuous physical activity
I. Objective:
Prepare learners for physical activity using general or sports-specific warm up
exercises
II. Procedure:
1. Let learners choose a partner.
2. Ask learners to do light jogging around the venue to gradually elevate their
heart rate.
3. Ask them to stretch their legs, arms, back, and neck for several minutes.
PY
The time allotted to properly warm up the body can spell the difference between
performing well and getting oneself injured. Learners should spend about 5-10 minutes
on warm up routine. Learners should execute either general warm-up exercises like
jogging or running, or sports-specific warm-up exercises by using the movements that
will be used in the actual physical activity.

Make warm-up sessions interesting for the learners. You can come up
with games or activities that make use of locomotor movements like running or
jogging, or specific movements in sports.

Introduce the next activity by giving a leading question on the concept of
lifestyle. What type of lifestyle do you have?
Activity 2: WHAT IS IT FOR YOU?
In this activity, learner’s prior knowledge about lifestyle and weight

management will be assessed.

I. Objective:
Discuss the meaning of lifestyle and the importance of lifestyle factors
II. Materials/Equipment:
PY
• manila paper
• masking tape
• pen
• activity notebook
O
III. Procedure:
1. Group learners into five to eight members each. (Consider the number of
learners in groupings. You can have more number of members per group to
accommodate everybody.)
C
2. Show the Lifestyle concept map. Ask learners to write words associated
with “Lifestyle” inside the circles. Explain that they may add more circles if
necessary. Ask them to do this in their activity notebook.
D
3. Focus the discussion on the following:
• Describe the words given.
• What were the words commonly given by the group? Why do you
E
think these words were given?

• What words were mentioned only once? Are these words important?
4. Ask the groups to define “Lifestyle” based on the word/s given by each
EP
member.
5. Ask a group representative to present their definition in class in 3 minutes.
(Time may vary.)
D
PY
O
Examples of words that they may associate with “lifestyle” are nutrition/food,
exercise, sports, rest and sleep, smoking, and drinking. They may write other words;
the important thing is that the learners should be able to connect these words with
C
“lifestyle.” Help them make this connection. Elaborate on the importance of the words
they write.
Your lifestyle is of utmost importance. Everything you do whether good or bad

D
has an effect on your health. Your lifestyle involves a lot of aspects like the physical
activities you engage in, the food you eat, the daily habits you observe, the choices
you make as a consumer, and many others. These different aspects of your lifestyle
E
affect your overall health. Therefore, it is a must that you give attention to these factors
for you to become a healthier individual.
EP
What aspects of your lifestyle do you think you should be more attentive to?
Why do you think so?

Introduce the next activity by challenging their vocabulary. What words
or concepts come to mind when they hear the word “weight”?

1. Divide learners into groups of five to eight members each.
2. Give these instructions to the learners:
a. Each group races to stand behind the chair with the word that they think
significantly connects weight to lifestyle. Only one group can occupy a
chair. Groups could switch places until the signal to stay is given.
b. Discuss your group’s choice of word or picture. Categorize your choice:
Is it about nutrition/food, or physical activity/exercise?
Make sure to explain clearly and extensively the connections between
“weight” and “lifestyle” using the different words and pictures. Emphasize that
their lifestyle, which includes nutrition and physical activity, affects their weight.
Many aspects of your life are connected to your weight and lifestyle. Your choice
of food is only a part of them. Your age, gender, inherited characteristics, sleeping
habits, physical activity, and many others are also to be considered. Remember that
these aspects are attributed to your well-being, susceptibility to diseases, among
others. That is why you should be aware of the practices that affect your lifestyle,
especially when it comes to your weight and nutrition.
Introduce the next activity by asking them what type of food they love to
eat? Is it meat, snacks, sweets, fruits, or vegetables? Is it sweet, salty, or sour?

5. Let their group representative present their summary in class in 3 minutes.
(Time may vary.)
Explain the risk factors. Emphasize that individuals respond differently

to stress and stressful situations; however, it is advantageous if stress is
minimal. An unhealthy diet refers to unhealthy food/nutrition choices. Diet
here is used interchangeably with nutrition. Intake of fatty foods should be
minimized to lower risks of certain diseases. However, body fat in certain areas
such as the abdomen, arms, and legs may need to be reduced through proper
diet and physical activity. Smoking and drinking are lifestyle choices that, if
often indulged in, especially in excess, could lead to health conditions and/or
diseases like lung cancer and kidney failure.
PY
Discuss the learners’ vulnerability to these risk factors because of their
lifestyle choices. Which among the risk factors are they most vulnerable? Which
risk factors do they need to focus more on?
Risk factors to our health include the things that we do in our everyday lives
O
and the physiological characteristics that we inherit from our parents. They should
be taken seriously. Being aware of these risk factors as well as doing something to
prevent and counteract their effecits are important. Engaging in active recreational
C
activities is highly promoted as one means of promoting a healthy lifestyle.
This part of the module will bring out their creativity in presenting lecture-
discussions. Find this part of the module as a guide in your discussion; you can
D
have more supplementary readings if you find it necessary.
Introduce the concept of active recreation and the benefits they can get from
E
participating in such activities. Mention that recreational activities include

sports, games, music, arts, hobbies and collecting activities, and outdoor or
nature activities. Emphasize that their recreational activities work together with
EP
their food practices to help manage their weight.
Activity 6: LECTURE-DISCUSSION
D
This is an opportunity to discuss and clarify the meaning and importance of

lifestyle and weight management and how active recreation contributes to lifestyle and
weight management.

After the activity, emphasize the relevance of all their lifestyle choices.
Focus on how these choices affect their overall wellness. Make them realize
that as early as teenage years, they should be conscious about their lifestyle,
keeping in mind their physical activity and food practices.
It is very important to be mindful of your food intake and physical activities

because these greatly affect your overall health. Your food intake and physical
activities affect your weight, which consequently affects your BMI. It is important that
your weight is within what is recommended for your height. Conscious healthy food
choices and participation in regular moderate to vigorous physical activities, along with
enough rest would definitely help you to improve or maintain your BMI.

LIFESTYLE AND MANAGING IT
Introduction
The way in which an individual lives is called lifestyle. This includes the
typical patterns of an individual’s behavior like everyday routine at home, in school,
or at work; eating, sleeping, and exercise habits, and many others. These patterns
of behavior are related to elevated or reduced health risk.
Teenagers like you may have practices or habits at home or in school that
either elevate or reduce health risks. Do you spend a lot of your time at home just
PY
sitting down and doing nothing? Do you move a lot by helping out at home, cleaning
your house for example? Do you love eating fruits and vegetables? Or do you prefer
junk food or fast food? Teenagers like you should be more aware on how your
nutritional practices can affect your health.
O
Managing your lifestyle entails making modifications in your routine especially
in those aspects that elevate health risks. Food choice, physical activity, and eating
habits are some of the aspects of your lifestyle that can be modified to improve
C
it. These modifications should be done gradually, like reducing the intake of fatty
food, getting up to reach for something instead of asking someone to get it for you,
or walking faster and more often. The idea is that for health risks to be reduced,
changes in your lifestyle should be made.
D
Risk factors are variables in your lifestyle that may lead to certain diseases.
E
Many aspects of your lifestyle can be considered risk factors. Aside from genetics or
heredity, age and physical make-up are some of the factors that cannot be changed;
however, your lifestyle can go around these factors to gain the more benefits. For
EP
instance, you cannot stop the aging process, but you can delay the signs of aging
from showing by being more active and avoiding vices.
The other variables in your lifestyle, however, can be modified to achieve

a healthier life. Such variables include nutrition, body weight, physical activity, and
D
health habits. What should be kept in mind is that these variables bring with them risk
factors that are serious concerns. Some of the risk factors associated with lifestyle
variables include hypertension / high blood pressure, overweight and obesity, excess
body fat, high levels of stress, lack of excercise and sedentary lifestyle, smoking,
unhealthy dietary practices, and alcohol consumption. An unhealthy lifestyle brings
with it certain diseases that can shorten your lifespan. These diseases, known as
non-communicable diseases (NCDs), are not transmitted from person to person,
yet kill more than 36 million people each year. Also called chronic diseases, they
are of long duration, and are generally of slow progression. The four main types of
NCDs are cardiovascular diseases (like heart attack and stroke), cancer, chronic
respiratory diseases (such as chronic obstructed pulmonary disease and asthma),
and diabetes.
15
All age groups are affected by NCDs. NCDs are often associated with older
age groups. Evidence shows that more than nine million of all deaths attributed
to NCDs occur before the age of 60. Children, and adults are all vulnerable to the
risk factors that lead to non-communicable diseases, whether from unhealthy diet,
physical inactivity, exposure to tobacco smoke, or the harmful effects of alcohol
(www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs355/en/‎ ).
PY
O
C
Figure 1. Lifestyle Management Continuum
It is important that these risks factors are addressed even at your teenage
D
years. You could start by being more active, adding physical activity sessions to your
daily routine, or by being a healthy eater, opting for more nutritious food.

WEIGHT AND MANAGING IT
Introduction
You might find other individuals lucky because they eat a lot but do not gain
D
weight as much as you do. You might also think it is unfair that though you limit
your food intake, you do not lose as much weight as you want to. This is because
your weight is a result of metabolic responses of your body to your food intake,
energy expenditure, and physiologic processes. A simple elimination of food or
addition of physical activity does not encompass the entirety of weight management.
Understanding how your body works is a vital key as well as a combination of healthy
food practices and a more active lifestyle.
The concepts of weight gain and weight loss are important in weight
management. How to gain and lose weight are probably some of the more common
issues when it comes to health. Along with this concept is weight maintenance.
To understand it in simple terms, energy expenditure is the amount of energy you
16
spend. through physical activity, while energy consumption is the amount of energy
you take in, through food. They both play key roles in weight management. A simple
formula is shown.
Weight Gain = energy consumed is greater than energy expended

= more food intake but less physical exertion
Weight Loss = energy consumed is less than energy expended
= more physical exertion but less food intake
Weight Maintenance = energy consumed equals energy expended
= physical exertion is the same with food intake
Modifying your eating habits can aid you in managing your weight. Opting for
PY
more nutritious food can help lessen health risks and improve your physique. Some
of the common tips in weight management are including fruits and vegetables in
your meals, reducing intake of sweets, preparing your meals in a healthier way, and
decreasing portion sizes.

O
Aside from taking note of your eating habits, you should also take note of
your actual weight as an indicator of health risk. This has to do with getting your
Body Mass Index (BMI). It is a rough measure of body composition that is useful
C
for classifying the health risks of body weight. It is also based on the concept that a
person’s weight should be proportional to height.BMI is calculated by dividing your
body weight (expressed in kilograms) by the square of your height (expressed in
meters).
D
Example:
weight: 130 pounds (convert into kilos) x 1kg / 2.2 pounds = 59 kg
E
height: 5 feet 3 inches (convert to meters) x .0254 meters / inch = 1.6 m
BMI = wt in kg = 59 kg
EP
= 23 kg/m2
ht in m2 (1.6 m) 2

Classification BMI
Underweight <18.5
D
Normal 18.5–24.9
Overweight 25.0–29.9
Obesity (I) 30.0–34.9
Obesity (II) 35.0–39.9
Extreme Obesity (III) ≥40.0
At low values of BMI, weight gain should be achieved. For normal values,
weight maintenance is recommended. Healthy eating and active physical activity
will be beneficial in maintaining a healthy weight. At high values of BMI, however,
the risk of arthritis, diabetes, hypertension, cancer, and other disorders increases
substantially. In classifying health risks associated with overweight and obesity,
body fat distribution and other disease risk factors are considered in addition to BMI.
17
If BMI and other assessment tests indicate that fat loss would be beneficial
for your health, your first step is to establish a goal. Make sure your goal is realistic
and will ensure good health. Genetics somehow limits your capacity to change
your body composition; however, you can improve your body composition through
regular exercise and healthy diet. A lifestyle that includes regular exercise may be
more important for health than trying to reach any “ideal” weight. Once you have
established a body composition goal, you can then set a target range for body weight.

ACTIVE REACTIONAL ACTIVITIES
Introduction
PY
Recreational activities are those activities held during one’s leisure time.
Their purpose is to refresh oneself by doing activities that are considered by an
individual as enjoyable.
O
These activities may require large body movements such as running,
throwing, and jumping, or small movements such as playing board games, doing
arts and crafts, and many others. When a recreational activity is athletics or sports,
C
this may require more physical exertion and competition. However, athletics and
sports may also be participated in more for the enjoyment they bring rather than
competitive play.
D
Active recreational activities are highly recommended for health promotion.
These activities require more amounts of energy to be expended than the usual
energy expenditure. This means that you do activities that make you exert more
E
effort than what you usually do.

Moderate amounts of physical activity are recommended daily. The total

activity can be accumulated in multiple short bouts – for example, two 10-minute
PY
brisk walk sessions and a 15-minute bike ride. This can also be done in continuous
sessions.
Choose recreational activities that you find enjoyable and fits into your daily
routine. Your participation in these activities could easily be sustained since you
O
personally enjoy doing them and you even do it in your own time. Hence, strict
adherence to a regular physical activity is very viable.
C
Regular physical activity, regardless of how hard it is, makes you healthier
and can help protect you from many chronic diseases. However, exercising at low
levels of exertion does little to improve physical fitness. It is recommended that you
exert more than your usual effort. For example, if you are used to walking for 15
D
minutes from home to work, you could walk faster or for a longer duration.
Some of the more common active recreational activities are sports like
E
badminton, tennis, table tennis, basketball, volleyball, baseball, and football. These
activities require specific skills to be able to play them. For sports involvement to be
EP
enjoyable, either recreational or competitive play may be pursued. It all depends on

you and your enjoyment.

Part II What to PROCESS?

D
Learners will be given activities on physical

activity and eating habits for them to understand the
importance to their fitness and well-being. As learners
go on with the activities, they will learn that participation
in active recreational activities is not just fun and exciting
but also an opportunity to improve their fitness and
enhance their social skills. So, they have to prepare
themselves and get started!

Teach the learners how to get their pulse and measure the pulse rate. With their index
and middle fingers together (dominant hand), feel the beating of their pulse either
on their wrist area, beneath the thumb, hand facing upward (radial artery of the non-
dominant hand), or on their neck (carotid artery on the right side, below the jaw bone)
and count the number of beats in 15 seconds. Tell the learners to do the counting
silently, and record the beats counted and multiply them by 4. Tell the learners to
record the number in their notebook as “_____ beats/minute.”
Discuss with them that the ability to perform well in the physical fitness tests is an
indicator of their physical fitness level. Scores in the different tests show the components
they should work on and also the ones they have already addressed satisfactorily.
From Quarter 1 to Quarter 4, their participation in active recreational activities could
help improve their scores in the different tests. They need to monitor their physical
PY
fitness levels to become healthier individuals.
Take note that only the physical fitness tests for cardiovascular endurance, coordination,

READINGS: PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND PHYSICAL FITNESS
It helps you avoid diseases, remain strong and fit, and maintain your
physical and mental health. One of the most important practices is being physically
active.
People of all ages benefit from regular physical activity. Significant health
benefits can be obtained by engaging in moderate amounts of physical activity on
most, if not all days of the week. Through a modest increase in daily activity, most
individuals can improve their health and quality of life. Additional health benefits can
be gained through greater amounts of physical activity. Individuals who can maintain
a regular regimen of a more vigorous or a longer-duration activity are likely to obtain
PY
even greater benefits.

Physical Activity Intensity Chart

28
Participation in regular moderate physical activity can lead to improved
physical fitness. It is a condition whereby the systems of the body are able to function
at their optimal efficiency, associated with an individual’s ability to work effectively, to
enjoy leisure time, to be healthy, to resist disease, and to meet emergency situations.
Regular moderate physical activity means engaging in relatively vigorous

bodily movement for 30 minutes to 1 hour that can elevate your heart rate. “Regular”
here refers to being active in most, if not all days of the week. About 3 to 4 times per
week or more are the recommended times of exercise for an individual. You may opt
to have rest days or easy days in between to allow your body to recover from the
physical exertion.

To know if the amount of effort exerted during physical activity will be
O
beneficial to you, the FITT formula should be kept in mind. FITT stands for:
Frequency (how often) – number of training sessions that are performed
during a given period (usually one week)
C
Intensity (how hard) – an individual’s level of effort, compared with their
maximal effort, which is usually expressed as a
percentage
Time (how long) – duration of a workout (including warm-up and
D
cool-down) or the length of time spent in training
Type – mode of physical activity
E
For example, you are used to leisurely walking for 20 minutes from your
home to school and back from Monday to Friday. Applying the FITT formula would
EP
entail the following adjustments in your physical activity for it to become more than
your usual practice, such as increasing the intensity of your pace to moderate or
vigorous and decreasing the amount of time to do it.
Your usual More than your usual
5x/wk (Monday-Friday)
D
5x/wk (Monday-Friday)
Frequency 2x/day (home-school;
2x/day (home-school; school-home)
school-home)
Moderate to vigorous
Intensity easy (leisurely pace)
(moderate to fast pace)
Time 20 minutes 13 minutes
Type walking brisk walking
Changing from your “usual” to “more than your usual” does not necessarily
mean changing everything in the FITT formula. Frequency can be retained but
intensity is elevated; or both can be slightly adjusted but time is increased; or type is
changed to a more challenging one. Remember, changing your FITT formula should
be done gradually to give your body time to adjust to the demands you place on it.
29
When your body is challenged to do more than what it is used to, changes in
your body start to occur. If the physical activity is too easy for your body, changes,
if any, would be minimal. Hence, your body should be challenged and more effort
should be exerted.
One way to gauge this is through the Rate of Perceived Exertion or RPE. It
is an assessment of the intensity of exercise based on how the participant feels. It is
basically a subjective assessment of effort which ranges from 6 (very, very light) to
20 (very, very hard) with 1 point increment in between. The target zone for aerobic
activity is from 12 to 16.

11 Fairly light 19 Very, very hard

C
Remember, if you find the activity as “very, very light” (7) to about “fairly light”
(11), you need to increase the intensity of your physical activity to reach “somewhat
D
hard” (13), depending on your goal. You can also increase frequency and time or
change the type. However, if you find the activity as “very hard” (17) to “very, very
hard” (19), you might want to check your FITT formula. Remember, health promotion
E
does not mean exhaustion or risking yourself of getting injuries.
Physical fitness tests are also good gauges of your fitness level. Health-related
EP
and skill-related components are tested to determine points of improvement of an

individual. Health-related components are those that contribute to the development
of health and functional capacity of the body. These include cardiovascular strength,
cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, muscular endurance, flexibility,
and body composition. Skill-related components on the other hand are those
D
components that contribute to the development of skills. These include agility,

balance, coordination, power, reaction time, and speed.
Here are just some of the components of physical fitness.

• Cardiovascular endurance - the ability of an individual to perform
prolonged work continously, where the work involves large muscle groups
(Fahey, Insel, and Ruth 2007)
• Agility - ability to start (or accelerate), stop (or decelerate and stabilize),
and change direction quickly, while maintaining posture
• Coordination - ability to perform complex motor skills with a smooth, flow
of motion
30
Good physical fitness is important because it contributes directly to the physical
component of good health and wellness, and indirectly to the other components.
Good fitness has been shown to be associated with reduced risk for chronic disease,
such as heart disease, and has been shown to reduce the consequences of many
debilitating conditions.
Factors affecting physical fitness include age, gender, heredity, nutrition,

activity and disability, among others. These factors affect physical fitness in varying
degrees since they are relative to the individual. For instance, if you eat ample
amounts of food regularly, your fitness level will likely be higher than somebody
who does not get enough nutrients on a regular basis. The same can be said with
somebody who is very active compared with somebody who is very sickly.
PY
Participating in regular physical activities should be enjoyable to be able
to make you continue doing it. Reasons for participating and dropping out from
the activity depend on the individual; that is why it is important to know what your
reasons for participating are so that dropping out can be avoided. Some reasons for
O
participating include: the thrill and excitement of competition; desire to succeed or
win and/or be good at something; a sense of personal accomplishment; enjoyment in
playing and mastering new skills; socialization or being with others; challenge limits;
C
release of stress and frustration; improvement of self-image, self-confidence, and
appearance; improvement of health, wellness, and fitness levels; and prevention of
disease.

EP
This activity will prepare the body for physical activity proper.
I. Objective:
Prepare learners for physical activity proper using general or sports-specific
warm up
D
II. Procedure:
1. Pair learners and ask them to form a line.
2. Ask them to do light jogging around the venue to gradually elevate your heart
rate. You could also demonstrate sports-specific movements as warm up.
3. As the leader, do the stretching of legs, arms, back, etc for several minutes
with the learners.

Emphasize the need to warm up before exerting effort in doing the actual
movements necessary in a sport. The time spent on properly warming up will
lessen the risks of injuries.
31
Time allotted to properly warming up the body can spell the difference between
performing well and getting yourself injured. Spend about five to ten minutes of warm
up routine either general like jogging or running or sports-specific, that is, using the
movements in the actual physical activity.
After this, recall their prior knowledge on the nature and background of
different active recreational activities. Review also the rules of the games and
the mechanics of doing the skills. Ask about their experiences when they played
the game.
The focus of the discussion is on the fitness benefits of these recreational

activities and how these activities affect one’s health in terms of managing weight.
Safety precautions are also highlighted to promote continuous participation
PY
even outside PE class and on their own leisure.

sprains, or are overuse injuries such as impingement syndromes. Both types

of injury can be prevented by using the right equipment, warming up, cooling
down and ensuring you are strong and fit enough to compete.

Activity: Shuttle ‘Minton

For this volleyball-like lead-up game, you will need a racket for each
player and one birdie. Form two teams, with 6-9 players each. The objective of
the game is hit the birdie over the net to the other team’s boundaries. A team is
allowed to hit the birdie up to three times while on its side before it goes over
the net. Note that the same player may not hit the birdie twice in a row. The
serving team will score when the other team cannot return the birdie legally
and within the serving team’s boundaries. However, if the serving team fails to
return the birdie to the other team, that specific play is over and the other team
is up to serve. Set a limit of points at the beginning of the game. The first team
to reach this number of points is the winner.

The most common table tennis injury is very similar to standard tennis
injuries. Sprained ankles, tennis elbow and Achilles tendinitis are just three of the
more frequent table tennis injuries.
EP
Table tennis is a non-contact sport but injuries are often acquired when
athletes suddenly change direction or twist their body quickly, leading to pulled
muscles and other injury problems. Players who do not warm up properly or stretch
their muscles before taking to the table also put themselves at a high risk of injury.

Set up 10 targets fairly close together at the end of the table. Group 3
players for each team and assign them the following tasks: 1 hitter, 1 fielder at the
back and 1 fielder in front, who is in charge of returning the ball to the hitter. The
hitter feeds the ball and hits it over the net aiming it at the targets. Each target hit
scores one point. Take turns in keeping score. Each player has 10 balls to use to
score as many points as possible. Replace or re-set targets and change hitters
and fielders.

(traumatic) injuries. These injuries occur over time due to stress on the muscles,
joints, and soft tissues without proper time for healing. They begin as a small,
nagging ache or pain, and can grow into a debilitating injury if they aren’t treated
D
early.
Many sports injuries result from overuse, lack of proper rest, lack of proper
E
warm uip or poor conditioning. Safety precautions are recommended to help

prevent tennis injuries like warming up thoroughly prior to play, wearing the right
tennis shoes with skid-resistant soles, using good technique in the different tennis
EP
movements, cleaning of courts before play to check for slippery spots or debris,
getting adequate rest and time for recovery after each play, and staying hydrated.
Activity: Bucket Game

D
Five buckets, bins, or containers are placed in various locations on each side
of the net. The participating players each stand on their respective baselines. The
first player tries to hit 10-20 balls into any of the buckets accross the net. If the ball
does not cross the net or does not land into the buckets, it is added to the balls that
the other player will use. After all balls are hit, those balls that don’t land in any of
the buckets are given to the other player, who in turn will try to hit the balls into the
buckets across the net.
When all the balls are in the buckets, they are counted and the player who
gets the most balls into his opponent’s buckets wins.

If you use too much effort in pitching the ball, or continuously pitch without
rest, a serious elbow or shoulder injury may be on the horizon. If you complain of
EP
elbow or shoulder pain the day after pitching, or movement of the joint is painful
or restricted compared to the opposite side, see a a physician familiar with youth
sports injuries. Warm up properly by stretching, running, and easy, gradual pitching.
Emphasize control, accuracy, and good mechanics. Do not play all year-round.
Your body needs to recover from the physical demands of playing.
D
Activity: Base Running-Catch-Stealing Base Game
Three markers are used as bases. Three players stand near the markers
while another player is positioned away from the 3 markers and is the designated
hitter. The hitter has to hit the ball with a bat to any of the players positioned in the
3 bases. As the player nearest the ball catches it, they all run to steal a base. The
player who fails to steal a base will be the hitter in the next round.

Injuries occur during football/soccer games and practice due to the

combination of high speed and full contact. While overuse injuries can occur,
traumatic injuries such as concussions are most common. The force applied to
either bringing an opponent to the ground or resisting being brought to the ground
makes football/soccer players prone to injury anywhere on their bodies, regardless
D
of protective equipment.
Activity: Partner Soccer Score
Partners stand 6-8 meters apart, facing each other. At the signal, one
partner will attempt to shoot the ball between their partners’ outstretched legs.
They also must retrieve the ball and go back to the starting point to shoot the
ball again. This goes on within a minute, afterwhich they switch roles. Whoever
scores the most goals in one minute wins, and assigns a task for the non-winner
to perform. Variation can be done using teams instead of individuals.

Activity: Dribble Tag
This game is played on a hard court. Select 4 players to be “it” and give them
a basketball each. Their objective is to tag other players who are scattered on the
court while dribbling the ball. The players who are tagged must get a new ball and
also become “it.” Once the majority of students have been tagged, start the game
over by selecting new players to be “it”.

Since volleyball involves repetitive overhead motions, such as spiking and
blocking, players are prone to overuse injuries of the shoulder. In addition, volleyball
players are particularly susceptible to finger injuries, ankle sprains, anterior cruciate
ligament (ACL) injuries, and patellar tendinitis. Usually injuries can be treated non-
D
operatively with bracing and physical therapy, or home rehabilitation exercises.
However, treatment can vary significantly depending on the injury. Recovery time
usually depends on the injury.
E
Activity: Catch, Toss, Set and Over

EP
The class will be divided into groups of 4-6 students each. The teacher
tosses a ball to one team wherein the first contact must catch it. The person who
catches the ball tosses it towards a player near the net (preferably in the middle).
That person volleys (or bumps) the ball along the net to another player who then
plays the ball over towards the other team and within the scoring area. The process
is then repeated for the second team. If the ball falls or if the second player catches
D
the ball, that team must leave the floor and the next team enters the court.
Participation in sports-related recreational activities is one of the best ways of

achieving a healthy lifestyle. Participation can either be recreational or competitive.
The important thing to keep in mind is that regular moderate participation in such
activities will help improve your health.
Introduce the next activity by asking about what they eat after participating in
sports activities. Are they conscious eaters? Or they indulge a lot?

• What eating habits are common? What do you think are the effects of
these eating habits?
4. Call some to share their answers on the following questions with the class.
• How do you feel about the activity? What were your realizations?
• What types of food do you eat that are close to the recommendations
in the Filipino Food Guide?
• Do you think you need to change your meal options? Your eating
habits? Why or why not?
Discuss the value of their eating habits. Mention that their eating habits
PY
contribute to their weight. What habits should they improve on? Maintain?
READINGS
The active life is a magnet that attracts a composite of behaviors or habits,

that when viewed one at a time, seems too simplistic to be valued. However, eating
O
and our body’s response to eating are some of the most intriguing concepts in health.
Eating is an intentional act. Each day people choose from the available food,
C
prepare the food, decide where to eat, which rules to follow, and with whom to dine.
These make up your eating habits. Convenience is only one factor that drives food
choices. Some of the other factors are:
Advertising: Media might have persuaded you to eat such food.
D
Availability: There are no others to choose from.
Economy: They are within your means.
Emotional comfort: They make you feel better for a while.
E
Habit: They are familiar; you always eat them.

Personal preference: You like the way such food taste.
Positive associations: They are eaten by people you admire, or they
EP
are just for fun.

Region/location: They are common or favored in your locality.
Social pressure: They are offered; you feel you cannot refuse them.
Values/beliefs: They fit your religious traditions, or honor your ethical beliefs.
Weight: You think they will help to control body weight.
D
Nutritional value: You think they are good for you.
The last two factors are highly viable to nutritional health. Similarly, the choice
of where, as well as what to eat, is often based more on social considerations than
on nutritional judgments. Hence, you should be more conscious of the factors that
affect your own personal food choices.
Poor food choices contribute directly to obesity, heart disease, diabetes,

cancer, and other health problems. Understanding the importance of food choices
becomes even more critical as a greater number of people rely more on convenience
food, take-out meals, and eating out. Poor diet coupled with lack of exercise
contributes to an increased risk of diseases.
42
MODIFYING EATING HABITS

A modification in your eating habits is needed most especially when you are
at risk of disease. Small and simple changes like adding more fruits to your diet
can make a difference in your health. However, some situations may need major
changes in one’s lifestyle. Some of the strategies in changing eating habits include
making a plan and sticking to it.
Eating habits can be modified according to the nutritional recommendations

for Filipinos by the Food and Nutrition Research Institute (FNRI). Bearing in mind
these recommendations help ensure proper diet especially the changes being
experienced as your body matures. Your eating habits should revolve around these
recommendations to become healthier. Remember, your nutritional needs should
PY
not be neglected as you participate in active recreational activities. More attention
on nutritional needs is necessary to energize your body and help your body recover
as well.

Compute the recommended number of calories you should burn using

EP
FNRI’s Energy Calculator to find out what physical activities you need to do to burn
these calories. Take note that in order to manage your weight well, you should give
importance to both physical activity and nutrition. That is why you should take note
of the calories you need to burn and the physical activities that you can participate
in to burn these calories.
D
The Energy Calculator or e-calc is an interactive and user friendly software that:
• assesses the nutritional status of individuals
• computes desirable body weight (DBW) and total energy requirement (TER)
• calculates energy intake and energy expenditure to check energy balance
• computes exercise equivalents & food energy equivalents to burn excess calories
• calculates the body mass index (BMI) of individuals
• calculates the basal metabolic rate (BMR) of individuals
