work efficiently, supplying
nutrients and oxygen to working
muscles during sustained
physical activity.
- Cardiovascular
system (circulatory system –
comprising the heart, blood, and
blood vessels) and the
respiratory system (lungs and
airways)
- Responsible for the uptake of
oxygen from the air we breathe,
the transport of nutrients and
oxygen around the body and the
removal of waste products
including carbon dioxide.

comprising the heart, blood, and
blood vessels) and the
respiratory system (lungs and
airways)
- Found in- Long distance
anything e.g. Swimming,
Cycling, Running etc.

- Muscular Endurance
- Definition – the ability of the
muscular system to work
efficiently, where a muscle can
continue contracting over a period
of time against a light to
moderate fixed resistance load.
- Used in sports such as
Skiing, Rowing, Rugby,
Gymnastics etc.

- Definition – the maximum force
(in kg or Newtons) that can be generated
by a muscle or muscle group.
- Body Composition
