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 activity
affect your weight, which consequently affect 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 improve or maintain your BMI.

READINGS
LIFESTYLE AND MANAGING IT
Introduction
The way in which an individual lives is called lifestyle. This includes the
typical patterns of an individuals 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
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.
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
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.

DEPED COPY

Risk factors are variables in your lifestyle that may lead to certain diseases.
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 more benefits. For
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
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 exercise 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
enlargement of the heart and hypertension), cancer, chronic respiratory diseases
(such as chronic obstructed pulmonary disease and asthma), and diabetes.
11

All age groups are affected by NCDs, although they 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/ ).

Figure 1. Lifestyle Management Continuum

It is important that these risks factors are addressed even at your teenage
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
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
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 here.
12
All rights reserved. No part of this material may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means electronic or mechanical including photocopying without written permission from the DepEd Central Office.

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
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.
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
for classifying the health risks of body weight. It is also based on the concept that a
persons 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).
Example:
Weight: 130 pounds (convert into kilos) x 1kg / 2.2 pounds = 59 kg
Height: 5 feet 3 inches (convert to meters) x .0254 meters / inch = 1.6 m
BMI = wt in kg2 = 59 kg 2 = 23 kg/m2
ht in m
(1.6 m)

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.
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 RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES
Introduction
Recreational activities are those activities held during ones leisure time.
Their purpose is to refresh oneself by doing activities that are considered by an
individual as enjoyable.
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,
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.
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
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
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
personally enjoy doing them and you even do it in your own time. Hence, strict
adherence to a regular physical activity is very viable.
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
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
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
enjoyable, either recreational or competitive play may be pursued. It all depends on
you and your enjoyment.

Your knowledge of lifestyle and weight management would be beneficial to


you as you get older. In general, lifestyle should be your focus. Knowing your weight
and how to manage it, coupled with participation in active recreational activities would
make you a healthier individual. However, take note that making significant cuts in
food intake in order to lose weight and body fat could be a difficult strategy to maintain;
focusing on increased physical activity is a better approach for many people.

PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AND PHYSICAL FITNESS


A lifestyle based on good choices and healthy practices maximizes the quality
of life. 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
even greater benefits.

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 individuals ability to work
effectively, to enjoy leisure time, to be healthy, to resist disease, and to respond
easily to 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 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)
Intensity (how hard) an individuals 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
cool-down) or the length of time spent in training
Type
mode of physical activity

DEPED COPY

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
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.

Frequency

Your usual
5x/wk (Monday-Friday)
2x/day (home-school;
school-home)

More than your usual

2x/day (home-school; school-home)

Intensity

easy (leisurely pace)

Time

20 minutes

Moderate to vigorous
(moderate to fast pace)
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.
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.

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
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
does not mean exhaustion or risking yourself of getting injuries.

DEPED COPY

Physical fitness tests are also good gauges of your fitness level. Health-related
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
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
24

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 diseases, 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.
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
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;
release of stress and frustration; improvement of self-image, self-confidence, and
appearance; improvement of health, wellness, and fitness levels; and prevention of
disease.

Injury Prevention and Risk Management
Badminton injuries are either acute, traumatic injuries such as ankle
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 teams 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 teams 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.

Injury Prevention and Risk Management

DEPED COPY

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.

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.
(www.sportsinjurybulletin.com/archive/table-tennis.php)

Activity: Table Tennis Ten Pin


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.

Injury Prevention and Risk Management


Tennis injuries are generally defined as either cumulative (overuse) or acute
(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 arent treated
early.

DEPED COPY

Many sports injuries result from overuse, lack of proper rest, lack of proper
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
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
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 dont 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 opponents buckets wins.

Injury Prevention and Risk Management

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
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.
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.

Injury Prevention and Risk Management

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
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.

Injury Prevention and Risk Management
Ankle sprains, jammed fingers, knee injuries, deep thigh bruising, and foot
fractures are common basketball injuries. To avoid these injuries, maintain proper
fitness and hydrate adequately. Remember, injury rates are higher in athletes who
have not adequately prepared physically.
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.

Injury Prevention and Risk Management


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 nonoperatively 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.

DEPED COPY

Activity: Catch, Toss, Set and Over


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
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.

MODIFYING EATING HABITS
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
and our bodys 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,
prepare the food, decide where to eat, which rules to follow, and with whom to dine
with. 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.
Availability:
There are no others to choose from.
Economy:
They are within your means.
Emotional comfort:
They make you feel better for a while.
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 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.
Nutritional value:
You think they are good for you.

DEPED COPY

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.

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 ones 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
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.
