Frequency (FITT)
refers to how often you participate in training, usually over a weekly basis and depends on a number of factors, including age, conditioning, and competitive aspirations
Type (FITT)
- combination of aerobic and anaerobic training is ideal.
- You can train by performing specific activities directly related to your sport
- performing activities that build strength and endurance without mimicking skills
- season will also affect what type of training is done, since weather conditions may not permit certain kinds of training.
Time (FIIT)
All training should be progressive.
Individuals just beginning to exercise should keep sessions short, slowly build
Intensity (FITT)
most common way to determine the intensity range for aerobic exercise is first to calculate your Maximum Heart Rate (MHR)
Target Heart Rate (THR) range is typically 60-90% of MHR, depending
on the individual’s level of fitness
Functional Fitness
training programs mimic real- life (sporting) situations and do not focus on exercising isolated muscles
Types of Training
- Periodization
- Flexibility training
- Core training
- Cardiorespiratory training
- Resistance training
- Circuit and stage training
- Plyometrics training
- Speed/agility/quickness training
