1. Parameters of Physical Fitness

1. Muscular Strength

The mixed amount of force that a muscle or group of muscle can exert. Strength is not necessarily synonymous with the size of the muscle although there is little question that people with large muscles are usually physically strong.

2. Muscular Endurance

The capacity to carry on muscular effort in a period of time.

3. Flexibility

The functional capacity of the joints to move and stretch through a normal range of motion.

4. Cardio-Respiratory Capacity

This parameter is commonly called circulatory or circulo-respiratory fitness or cardio-vascular endurance which allows the individual to persist in strenuous tasks for a period of some length.
