c/c_Physical and Health Education_Grade 10_Principes d’entraînement, y compris le principe FITT, le principe SAID et la spécificité

• a guideline to help develop and organize personal fitness goals based on:
  • Frequency – how many days per week
  • Intensity – how hard one exercises in the activity (e.g., percentage of maximum heart rate)
  • Type – the type of activity or exercise, focusing on the fitness goal (e.g., jogging for cardio endurance)
  • Time – how long the exercise session lasts

Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demand: the body will react and respond to the type of demand placed on it (e.g., a student’s flexibility will eventually improve if he or she participates in regular stretching activities)

The types of exercises chosen will determine the kinds of fitness improvements (e.g., a student who wants to improve his or her flexibility levels would perform stretching exercises).
