Step-by-step solution for: Fitness components | Helen Toring
Let's solve this step by step.
We are given a list of fitness components and asked to match them with the correct examples (images and descriptions). Here are the fitness components provided:
- Reaction Time
- Muscular Endurance
- Body Composition
- Agility
- Flexibility
- Balance
- Speed
- Coordination
- Power
Now, let’s analyze each example and match it with the correct fitness component:
---
- Image: A person doing a split (legs stretched wide apart).
- Explanation: This demonstrates how far the muscles and joints can move, especially in the hips and legs.
- ✔ Correct Component: Flexibility
> *Flexibility* refers to the range of motion around a joint.
---
- Image: A person lifting a heavy barbell.
- Explanation: This involves using muscle strength to lift weights, which requires muscular force.
- ✔ Correct Component: Muscular Strength or Power?
Wait — note that "Muscular Endurance" is listed, but not "Muscular Strength". However, Power is also an option.
But weightlifting, especially lifting heavy weights for a short time, is more about power (which combines strength and speed) or muscular strength.
Since "Muscular Strength" isn't listed, but "Muscular Endurance" is, we must consider what's available.
But wait — Power is listed. Power = Strength × Speed.
Lifting a heavy weight quickly involves power.
However, if it's just one repetition, it's more strength, but since Strength isn't listed, and Power is, and Muscular Endurance is for multiple reps, then:
👉 Weight lifting (especially Olympic-style lifts) is best matched with POWER.
✔ Correct Component: POWER
---
- Image: A person standing on one leg with arms outstretched.
- Explanation: This tests the ability to maintain balance on one foot.
- ✔ Correct Component: BALANCE
> *Balance* is the ability to maintain equilibrium while stationary or moving.
---
- Image: A person standing on a scale.
- Explanation: This measures body mass, which relates to body composition (fat vs. muscle).
- ✔ Correct Component: BODY COMPOSITION
> *Body Composition* refers to the proportion of fat and lean mass in the body.

| Example | Fitness Component |
|--------------------|------------------------|
| Split | Flexibility |
| Weight Lifting | Power |
| Stork Stand | Balance |
| Measuring Weight | Body Composition |
---
- Split → Flexibility
- Weight Lifting → Power
- Stork Stand → Balance
- Measuring Weight → Body Composition
These are the correct matches based on the definitions and available options.
✔ Answer Key:
1. Split → Flexibility
2. Weight Lifting → Power
3. Stork Stand → Balance
4. Measuring Weight → Body Composition
