This can make it hard to get them to care about physical activity and health-related fitness. The latest research shows that many young adults are less active than they should be, placing them at increased risk for heart disease and other serious health risks. As many as 50 percent of American adults do not get enough physical activity for optimal health benefits, and there is evidence that sedentary lifestyles actually begin to develop in the teen years. Now there's a new video series that speaks to teens on their own level, in a way they can understand, about the benefits of lifetime physical activity. What's more, the series provides specific tools that teens can use to assess their personal fitness and develop realistic individual fitness and physical activity goals. Chuck Corbin's Fitness for Life Videos prepare students to take responsibility for their own activity and fitness levels--for the rest of their lives. The worldwide leader on the subject, Chuck Corbin, has developed these all-new videos. Dr. Corbin is the author of more than 200 professional and research publications and more than 30 books--including the popular award-winning books Concepts of Physical Fitness and Fitness for Life. Chuck Corbin's Fitness for Life Videos provide your students with in-depth knowledge of health-related fitness and lifetime physical activity presented in an engaging manner that will motivate as well as instruct. The videos will help your students learn to practice goal setting; think critically about health-related fitness; and become responsible for their own activity, fitness, and health. The videos will also help prepare your students to participate in the FITNESSGRAM physical fitness test and the FitSmart National Health-Related Fitness Knowledge Test. The package includes five 25-minute videos and a user's guide contained on a CD-ROM: - Introduction to Lifelong Physical Fitness - Cardiovascular Fitness - Muscle Fitness - Flexibility - Body Composition The videos are designed to convince teenagers--many of whom feel immune to most health risks--that they need to learn and care about fitness. Operating at a level teens can understand, the videos begin by showing the immediate benefits of physical activity, then provide specific tools that teens can use to assess their personal fitness and develop realistic individual fitness goals. The first video in the series provides an introduction to the benefits of lifelong physical activity. It presents an overview of each of the five components of health-related fitness (aerobic fitness, muscular endurance, muscle strength, flexibility, and body composition) and introduces the five steps to lifelong fitness: - Exercise - Physical fitness - Personal exercise patterns or habits - Self-testing - Problem solving (making informed consumer choices on fitness equipment and exercise activities) The introductory video also provides information about the amount of fitness and physical activity necessary to reap health and other benefits so that students learn how much physical activity is enough. Each of the other four videos in the package focuses on a different component of fitness. Each video begins by spelling out exactly why that particular aspect of fitness is important. Next it provides tools so that students can assess their current fitness levels and interpret their assessment results, including those in FITNESSGRAM. Finally, each video draws from a physical activity pyramid to show a wide variety of lifetime activities that are appropriate for promoting the desired aspect of fitness. The videos demonstrate the proper techniques for each activity, then show students how to set realistic goals and plan a personal physical activity program to promote lifelong fitness. Even those who have a limited background in physical education can teach and motivate students to become more physically active with this video series. The videos are designed to meet National Association for Sport and Physical Education (NASPE) standards as well as many states' standards. Fitness leading to improved quality and quantity of life is the ultimate result of lifetime physical activity. Use Chuck Corbin's Fitness for Life Videos to show your students how to make regular physical activity an integral part of their lives.
