Q

what are the principles of training?

A 
individual needs 
specificity 
progressive overload 
overtraining 
reversibility
28
Q

what are the ways you can progressive overload

A

frequency-how often we train
intensity-how hard we train
time- how long we train
type-what type of training we do

29
Q

what is specificity?

A

training should be geared specifically towards your chosen sport or activity

30
Q

what is progressive overload?

making training match the needs of the individual

32
Q

what is overtraining?

A

when your train too hard and do not give your body enough rest and recovery time between training sessions

33
Q

what is reversibility?

A

if you are unable to exercise because of illness or injury or other commitments, unless you keep training, any fitness gains will be lost

34
Q

what are the thresholds of training??

A

an effective way to measure intensity and ensure you are working hard enough to make fitness gains

35

what is the aerobic training threshold??

A

60%-80%

Q

what is the anaerobic threshold??

A

80%-90%

37
