Flexibility is the ability of a joint to move freely through its range of motion (ROM).
Gymnastic events require substantial joint flexibility,games such as badminton also need to be flexible. Various methods of stretching can increase flexibility.
Yoga is a popular activity to improve fitness.

Power is ability to exert muscular strength rapidly. It is the rate of performing work.
On the field, power combines speed and strength. Explosive skills require power fitness, which involves exerting force with marked acceleration.
Olympic lifting and shotputting are examples that show a rapid rate of force development.

Muscular endurance is the ability to sustain submaximal activity for extended periods of time and resist fatigue.

Muscular endurance enables muscles to be exercised repeatedly without getting tired, for example in activities such as running and swimming. Submaximal muscular endurance is the ability to

Reaction Time is the ability to respond rapidly to a stimulus (cue).

For example, the time between the trigger being pulled, the gun firing and the athletes starting to run.

In a game of badminton or football the player has to react to each type of shot.

Cardiovascular fitness is the ability to perform prolonged aerobic exercise at moderate to high exercise intensities.

Cardiovascular fitness describes the efficiency of the heart, lungs and blood vessels to deliver oxygen to the working muscles so that you can keep working for a long time.

Balance is the ability to maintain equilibrium.

Balance can be static or dynamic. Static balance means that the athlete is not moving, such as when performing a handstand.

Dynamic balance means that the athlete maintains equilibrium while moving, such as in slalom ski events.

Muscular strength is the maximum amount of force that one can generate in a specific movement pattern at a specific velocity of contraction.

The definition used to be more simple--the ability to lift a maximum weight. The new definition reflects more specificity in the nature of a movement where strength is required.

Agility is the ability to change direction rapidly without a significant loss of speed, balance, or body control.

Agility fitness combines power, strength, balance, flexibility, reaction time, coordination, anticipation, and muscular control. Agility is critical in any sport that requires rapid changes in direction, deceleration,

Body Composition is the proportion of fat and fat-free mass (lean body mass) throughout the body.

Body composition is influenced by genetics, although it can be improved by eating properly and engaging in physical activities are the most effective ways to enhance body composition. Height and weight are genetic.

Speed is the ability to perform a motor skill as rapidly as possible.

Simply, it is the ability to move quickly, which is an essential quality in many sports. Reaction time is closely related to speed. Speed includes:
Leg speed, eg. Usain Bolt
Hand speed, eg, boxer Joe Calzaghe
Speed of thought, eg, Tennis star Rafael Nadal.

Coordination is the ability to move smoothly and efficiently.It is specific to each sport skill.

Gross motor coordination means performing large muscle skills, such as running and jumping, with good technique, rhythm, and accuracy.

Many coaches have adopted Tudor Bompa's
