Skill related fitness components help a person
perform certain tasks that involve motion/movement. Sports, recreational
activities, and games are examples of activities that involve motor movements.
The different skill related components are: agility, balance, coordination,
power, reaction time, and speed.
The goal of achieving a certain level of fitness
through the skill-related components could help an individual perform better in
sports. But in able to do this, one must be particularly aware what exact
skill-related component does a particular sport demand to successfully practice
and develop the skills it needs. A sport may have combinations of these
components at certain levels, and one must make sure that the training that
will commence will be very specific to the demands of those particular skills.
<span> An example is surfing, where an individual needs both
balance and coordination to be able to successfully stand on top of the board.
To achieve this, one must specifically train coordinating and balancing
activities (e.g. core exercises, planks) to improve on the sport.</span>
The various components of skill-related fitness do not exist in isolation. Reaction time in a sport is also dependent upon coordination in order to react to stimuli, just like balance is important in situations relying upon high levels of agility. There is not much point in being highly agile in a sport if a player cannot stay upright through the end of the play or maneuver. These different skills are important to different degrees in different activities, so none of them can be discounted or ignored.
