PE REFLECTION PAPER
LESSON 1: A Way to Get Fit
Physical activity is what we do every day that
requires exertion of energy such as walking and
running. It is important for us to exercise to have a
healthy lifestyle and to prevent having illnesses such as
cardiovascular diseases and hypertension.
LESSON 2: Energy Systems
I learned that there are three energy systems:
Anaerobic a-lactic, Anaerobic lactic and Aerobic energy
system. In every exercise that we do we need to have
the right amount of energy to be able to perform that
activity. Once we engage in these physical activities we
use all these three energy systems.
LESSON 3: Let’s Be Health Aware!
In this lesson it contained three important
things that would help us to maintain a healthy lifestyle:
eating habits, sleep management and stress
management.
In order to be healthy we have to eat the right
amount of food that also has the right amount of
nutrients. Lack of nutrients may lead to malnutrition
and overeating may lead to overweight and obesity.
Sleep is important. We need to sleep about 6-
8 hours every night to allow the body to rest. It is bad to
have sleeping habits like staying up all night, internet
addiction and eating before sleeping.
I learned that people deal with stress every
day, at school and even at work. We need to know how
to handle the stress we are experiencing every day so
that we could still maintain a healthy lifestyle.
LESSON 4: Eat Right for a Healthy Life
I learned that there are four types of eating:
fueling for performance, emotional eating, social eating
and distracted eating. Too much food and too little
food is unhealthy so we should always eat a balanced
diet. We should learn how to control our eating habits.

LESSON 5: Managing Stress through
Physical Activity
Stress is part of our life. Stress has its own
advantages and disadvantages, it can be helpful to keep
a person alert but on the other hand it triggers mental,
emotional, and physical problems.
As a student, we need to learn how to handle
stress to be able to cope up with the difficult situations
that we experience. Physical activities can help us cope
up with physical symptoms of stress, even the simplest
exercise such as walking can help.
LESSON 6: Self-testing Activity for a
Healthy Me!
I learned that we need to perform physical
fitness testing first before engaging into physical
activities. We need to know what kind of exercises are
fit for our body and what can help us to improve.
Barriers hinder a person from having a
healthy lifestyle. Trends like technology are one of the
factors that prevent them from being physically active.
The environment itself also contribute to the many
factors that affects us.
LESSON 7: Fitness Goals
I learned that there are four principles of
physical activity and these help in muscle development.
FITT stands for frequency, intensity, time and type. It
is used as basis for your fitness routine.
We need to exercise more frequently to have
a greater chance of fitness development. Selecting
appropriate activities will help us achieve the desired
results that we want to have.
