AUPR Assessing My Own Level of Muscular Fitness Discussion Reply

Muscular fitness largely impacts our daily living activities in a variety of ways. The different layers of muscular fitness outlined the prompt each impact overall fitness differently, especially when considering the wide array of daily functions we undertake as active individuals. Muscular strength is the amount of force that a muscle can produce at any one point in time at maximal effort. This is impactful in day-to-day living when considering pushing furniture, lifting groceries, or kicking an object on the floor. The muscular strength of one’s arms or legs are constantly challenged to exert their maximum effort especially when an object or the subject of an action is particularly heavy which increases intensity. Muscular endurance encompasses one’s ability to repeat a movement over an extended period. This particular element of muscular fitness is most susceptible to the FITT principles which can impact how strenuous repeated movement becomes. The increase in frequency, intensity, or amount of time spent on a workout will slowly wear down muscular endurance. Episodes of this can be seen when carrying children of various weights which can limit the duration of carrying each individual child. It can also be seen when blending egg yolk or any mixture in the kitchen where the muscular endurance of the shoulder and arm come into play. A faster pace or increased weight in any of these activities will surely reflect one’s capability in muscular endurance. Muscular power measures muscular strength as it pertains to speed. One’s ability to exert maximal strength within a certain window of time is a measure of muscular power. One can estimate their level of muscular power with fast-paced, high-intensity activities such as gardening (digging) or cycling.

When assessing my own level of muscular fitness, I would estimate that I sit slightly above average in overall muscular fitness. Muscular strength would be my strongest category followed by muscular power and finally, muscular endurance. I find that in day-to-day activities, I can perform high intensity routines or exhaust maximal effort for short windows of time. My fitness plan is catered towards building muscular endurance, especially as it pertains to cardiac muscles and the cardiorespiratory system. Improving this area of muscular fitness will slowly push me towards a higher level of overall muscular fitness.
