training principles Flashcards
what are training principles
there rules and ideas that improve your fitness skills. If there not followed it’s unlikely you will gain any benefits from ur training
what are the 6 Principles of Training:
Individual needs, Progressive overload, FITT,Specificity, Rest & Recovery, Reversibility
what is individual needs
matching the training to the requirement of the individual.
progressive overload
gradually increasing and making ur program harder.
if not increased it will not improve ur physical fitness
What can progressive overload include
distance, sets, time, sessions, recovery time, repetitions
frequency
number of training sessions needed per week to ensure improvements in fitness
(also need to consider recovery time)
aerobic training frequency is
minimum 3 sessions per week (5 is normal)
anaerobic training frequency is
minimum 3 sessions per week (4 is normal)
intensity
is the degree of effort required to perform a specific exercise task.
Aerobic training is measured in
70-85%MHR
anaerobic training is measured in
85-100%MHR
TIME is
how long each session must be in order to achieve the desired result.
time for aerobic training must be
minimum 20 minutes of continuous physical activity at 70-85% MHR
time for anaerobic training must be
short burst of physical activity with rest periods in between
define type
the type of training done based on the specific sport or activity being played.
type of aerobic training
continuous, interval and fartlek training
type of anaerobic training
resistance training plyometric training and circuit training.
define specificity
training the particular fitness components energy system and muscle group to what’s required for ur sport or to what ur trying to achieve
define rest
the period of time allocated to recovery
define recovery
the time required to repair damage to the muscles, to relax and get rid of oxygen debt and lactic acid caused by training or competition
define reversibility
-training effects can revers it can be positive and or negative.
-strength and speed are gradually lost with muscle losing their size, commonly known as muscle atrophy.
matching the training to the individual due to ….
their body build, the sport/position, their aim/goals, current fitness levels/ age/ gender .
what intensity usually measured in
% of max HR
