Set: A group of repetitions of a specific exercise, with a rest between each set. Set: A group of repetitions of a specific exercise, with a rest between each set.

FITT Principle Frequency: How often you perform the activity (# of reps, sets, etc) Frequency: How often you perform the activity (# of reps, sets, etc) Intensity: How hard you perform the activity (HR, 1 RM, etc) Intensity: How hard you perform the activity (HR, 1 RM, etc) Time: How long you perform the activity Time: How long you perform the activity Type: Which health-related component you are working on Type: Which health-related component you are working on

5 Components of Fitness Cardiovascular Endurance Cardiovascular Endurance Muscular Endurance Muscular Endurance Muscular Strength Muscular Strength Flexibility Flexibility Body Composition Body Composition
10
Cardiovascular Endurance Ability to work the entire body for long periods of time. FrequencyIntensityTime 3-6 days per week 65 - 90 % Heart Rate Max 20 - 60 continuous minutes
11
Muscular Endurance The number of times a muscle group can repeat an exercise or hold a contraction until it fatigues. FrequencyIntensityTime 3 - 6 days per week 20 - 55% 1 Rep Max 1 - 3 sets 11 - 25 repetitions
12
Muscular Strength Ability to work the entire body for long periods of time. FrequencyIntensityTime 2–3 days per week 48–72 hours of rest in- between workouts 60%–90% of maximum strength 1–3 Sets 8–12 repetitions 30 sec to 1 minute
13
Flexibility Ability to move a joint through its full range of motion. FrequencyIntensityTime Minimum 2 – 3 days a week Best to do some stretching daily To the point where you feel tension, not pain 15–30 minutes total Static stretches of warm muscles; 20–60 seconds, three sets
14
Body Composition The makeup of body tissue including muscle, bone, body fat, and all other body tissues. Usually reported in fat percentage. FrequencyIntensityTime Daily physical activity 3 regular meals or 4-5 small meals a day 3,500 Kcal = 1 pound of fat No more than 1-2 pounds weight/fat loss per week
15
BMI Weight in Kilograms divided by Height in Meters squared (kg/m2). Weight in Kilograms divided by Height in Meters squared (kg/m2). While not the most accurate, this is a cheap and fast indicator of body composition for the general population.

Overload and Progression Overload: To improve a health-related component, you must do more than what your body normally does. Overload: To improve a health-related component, you must do more than what your body normally does. Progression: The amount of intensity should be increased gradually. Progression: The amount of intensity should be increased gradually.
17
Specificity To increase a particular part of any health- related component, you must work on that that particular area. To increase a particular part of any health- related component, you must work on that that particular area. For example, to increase abdominal strength you must exercise the abdominal region. For example, to increase abdominal strength you must exercise the abdominal region.
