Identify several factors in the environment that can affect physical fitness levels.
  • Exercise programs can be developed in any environment.
  • Heredity is your inherited physical characteristics that can influence fitness level and activity selection. It is not possible to change hereditary conditions because it is impossible to change your lung capacity, your height, amount or type of muscle fibers, or your amount of body fat. It is only possible to improve certain things, but you can not completely change what you are born with.
  • There can be other factors besides the fitness level of the job, such as stress factors or transportation. While someone could work in construction, they may drive to work, which affects their fitness, or they could have high stress factors, which could also affect your physical activity. Someone with an office job may have a less physically active job, but they could walk to work, or go to the gym after work which positively affects their fitness level.
  • Where a person lives can affect their physical fitness levels, because someone in a city may have more access to gyms, while someone in a rural area may not. Income level can also affect activity, since they may be able to afford lots of things or may not be able to. Your social environment can also affect your fitness levels, depending on whether or not your friends and family are involved in any sort of activity.
Compare and contrast lifestyle choices that positively affect physical fitness with those that negatively affect physical fitness.
  • Technology has made people more sedentary, because it does not involve physical activity. Technology has made more people sit and watch TV, play video games, or surf the internet, which requires no physical activity, so it has negatively affected peoples activity levels.

  • Lifestyle choices that positively affect fitness include, hiking, kayaking, any outdoor activity, or dancing.

Hiking, kayaking, and dancing help positively affect your fitness because you are physically doing something, as opposed to not doing any physical activity when you participate in TV, computers, and video games.
  • There can be other factors besides the fitness level of the job, such as stress factors or transportation. While someone could work in construction, they may drive to work, which affects their fitness, or they could have high stress factors, which could also affect your physical activity. Someone with an office job may have a less physically active job, but they could walk to work, or go to the gym after work which positively affects their fitness level.
