What is the FITT Principle?

The FITT Principle is a set of guidelines created to help people benefit from exercise.

FITT Principle is an Acronym. Here is the breakdown: F: Frequency (How OFTEN do I need to exercise?) I: Intensity (How HARD do I need to exercise?) T: Time (How LONG do I need to exercise?) T: Type (What KIND of exercise do I need to do?)

Frequency: 60 Minutes Every Day

Intensity: You want to be at your Target Heart Rate when you exercise Intensity: You want to be at your Target Heart Rate when you exercise. -What is your Resting Heart Rate? -What is your Maximum Heart Rate? -What is your Target Heart Rate?

Time: 60 Minutes per session

Types: Two Main categories of Exercises are Aerobic and Anaerobic Aerobic Exercises = The HEART -Uses Oxygen to meet energy demands Anaerobic Exercises = The Skeletal Muscles -Promotes strength, speed, and power within the muscles

Anaerobic Exercises can be broken down into THREE main categories: Isometric 2. Isotonic 3. Isokinetic

Isometric -Holding a Muscle Contraction -Muscles are NOT moving once they are in position Ex: Planks Wall Sits

-Exercises can include free weights or your body’s own resistance Isotonic -Muscles ARE moving -Exercises can include free weights or your body’s own resistance Ex: Sit-ups, Bicep curls, Pull Ups, Chest Press, Leg Lifts

Isokinetic -Using machines to strength train the muscles -Can isolate some muscles and only work the principle of specificity -Best for beginners, the elderly, or athletes that have particular positions on a sports team
