States that the body will adapt specifically to the workload it experienced. This implies that the body will adapt to the kind of activities that it performs.
Principle of Specificity
This states that no two persons are the same when it comes to adaptation to the workload.
Principle of Individuality
This states that adaptations that take place as a result of training are all reversible. This means that too much rest, or discontinuing exercise training will cause the body’s level of physical fitness.
