PRINCIPLES OF EXERCISE IN
PHYSICAL FITNESS
Overload, specificity, progression, reversibility, adaption, individual differences
Training must be raised to a higher
level than normal to create the extra
demands to which your body will
adapt.
Overload
Training must be specific to the sport
or activity, the type of fitness required
and the particular muscle groups.
Specificity
As your body adapts to training, you progress to
a new level of fitness. To then take this to the
“next level”, a gradual increase in intensity is
needed to create an overload.
Progression
The effects of training, are reversible. If
exercise is reduced in intensity or even
stopped, the benefit can be lost quickly.
Reversibility

eventually turn a new sport, activity or
movement skill into second nature.
Adaptation

an exercise or training program and each
person needs to exercise and train
accordingly.
