40
Q

What are the four principles of training

A

S - Specificity
P - progressive overload
O
R - reversibility
T- Tedium

41
Q

What are the four principles of training

A

S - Specificity
P - progressive overload
O
R - reversibility
T- Tedium

42
Q

What is specificity -

A

Matching training to the activity and components of fitness to be developed. For example a cyclist would improve their muscular endurance on an exercise bike rather than a treadmill. Also match the intensity of you training to the activity

43
