Q

SAID Principal

A

Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands - body will adapt to the specific demands that are placed on it. i.e.- if someone repeatedly lifts heavy weights, that person will produce higher levels of maximal strength. -if a person repeatedly lifts lighter weights for many repetitions, that person will develop higher levels of muscular endurance.
