Frequency is how often a person performs the targeted health-related physical activity For each component of health-related fitness, a safe frequency is three
This type of activity burns the most calories and promotes weight loss Examples include aerobics, swimming, running, walking, kickboxing, dancing, and cycling
For Strength Training: The recommended frequency here is 2-3 non-consecutive days a week (at least 1- 2 days between sessions
Frequency: Daily Intensity: Low Time: 60 minutes Type: Be active 60 minutes a day, performing household chores, walking, playing, etc Page 2
FITT principles are exercise guidelines to help improve your overall fitness FITT Principles Frequency: How often? Examples of each are below:
T stands for TYPE, which means what kind of activity you are performing 1 Indicate which of the following is an example of FREQUENCY (F), INTENSITY (I), and
to work harder If it is above your THRZ, then you need to slow down See example below The FITT Formula for Cardiovascular Fitness Frequency Intensity
FITT Principle Weekly Cardiorespiratory Resistance Flexibility Neuromotor* F = Frequency 3-5 days 2-3 days 2-3 + days 2-3 days I = Intensity
Example: Running, Swimming, Biking Fitness Test: 12 Minute Cooper Run, 1 5 Mile Walk, Step Up Test Muscular Endurance Definition:
Aerobic activity is when the body's large muscles move together and your heart beats faster than usual Examples include aerobics, swimming, running, walking,
It is a gradual increase either in frequency, intensity, or time or a The FITT Principle describes how to safely apply the principles of overload For example,
Walking, biking, jogging, skating, or rowing are just a few examples of FITT Principle Table F Frequency of Exercise Maximum cardiovascular benefits are
There are many considerations and variations for frequency, intensity, duration, and FITT principle Figure 4 2 (example: Monday and Thursday, work chest,
