Health related fitness is made up of five different components: flexibility, cardiovascular endurance, muscular strength, muscular endurance, and body composition.
Flexibility is seen as how far you can move your joints during movement. Your flexibility can increase by increasing the amount of that that you stretch to improve your muscular strength & endurance. Many people lose their flexibility due to injuries, muscles pulls, and lower-back problems.
Cardiovascular endurance is your ability to work without stopping over a long period of time. A person's cardiovascular endurance varies from the amount of blood that your heart can supply to your muscles and organs. Cardiovascular endurance activities can be as easy as walking, dancing or jogging.
Muscular strength is the greatest force that you can give when you contract your muscles. Your muscular strength has many factors, but there is also ways to increase your muscular strength with easy training.
Muscular endurance is one's ability to contract your muscles without becoming extremely tired. This component is important because it can reduce your amount of energy required to do various physical activities. Activities such as push-ups or sit-ups help increase your muscular endurance.
Body composition is the ratio of water, bone and muscle to body fat. This is a very important component because it could hurt your functional health and could increase the chance of getting chronic disease. Having or trying to have a reasonable amount of body fat to keep a good, stable health.
For my health related activity I am going to be playing a simple game of hopscotch. This can and will improve each individual's muscular endurance by being able to to hop on one leg over some period of time without getting a major injury.

Over the summer I plan on playing a lot of my favorite sport, soccer. This will improve my muscular endurance because it requires a lot of energy to run around, but if I continue playing I will have increased my muscular endurance from the beginning of the summer.
