Isometric-
When there is tension in the muscle, but no change in the muscle length.
Concentric-
When the muscle shortens during contraction.
Eccentric-

Frequency I-
Intensity
Time T- T-
Type

6. Frequency F-Frequency: How often?
Frequency answers the question “how often an activity is performed”
Examples: 3 days a week, 5 days a week, daily

7. Intensity I-Intensity: How hard?
Intensity answers the question “how hard is the person working?”

8. Time T-Time: How long? How many sets and repetitions (reps)
Time for Flexibility answers the question “how many sets and reps or time for each stretch?”
Examples: 1 sets of 10 seconds or 3 sets of 15 seconds

9. Type T-Type: What kind ?:
Type answers the question “what kind of activities is the person doing”

10. 3 Fitness Theories Theory of Progression Slowly adding to your program
Add more time to your static stretch
add more dynamic stretches
add another set
implement assisted isolated stretching

11. Types of flexibility programs
Static stretching: Static stretching means a stretch is held in a challenging but comfortable position for a period of time, usually somewhere between 10 to 30 seconds. 
Dynamic Stretching: active movements of muscle that bring forth a stretch but are not held in the end position
Assisted Isolated Stretching: Using a band or rope to isolate muscle groups to be stretched.
Yoga: A practice utilizing poses, posture and breathing that can increase flexibility.

12. 3 Fitness Theories Theory of Overload Doing more than usual
Add more time to stretches
add more sets of stretches
implement new stretches
use dynamic stretches or assisted isolated stretches
add more days of flexibility

13. 3 Fitness Theories Theory of Specificity
Completing certain activities to enhance a certain component of fitness
What kind of physical activities are you doing and what kind of flexibility do you wish to have? You can tailor your flexibility program to your activities. Example: dynamic stretches for athletes, static stretches for yoga
