Training Principles

6. System The network of blood vessels and the heart that pumps blood throughout the body
7. Minutes of repetitions
9. Exercise training is specific to the muscles used and the component of fitness trained
11. Small tubes or vessels for blood leaving the heart
13. System The passageway, muscles, and lungs that allow oxygen to be breathed in and carbon dioxide to be breathed out
14. Gradual increase in one or more of the FITT variables to create an overload
16. Term Goal A result that can be achieved in 6 months or more
18. Term Goal A result that can be achieved in 6 months or less
19. Composition The combination of fat mass to fat free mass

1. Endurance Ability of the heart, blood, blood vessels and lungs to supply enough oxygen to the body during long periods of physical activity
2. The muscles’ ability to move a joint through its full range of motion
3. Strength The ability of a muscle or muscles to push or pull with total force
4. Number of exercise sessions per week
5. Smallest of the blood vessels and the place where tissues of the body exchange carbon dioxide in exchange for oxygen
8. Training load expressed as weight, speed, or heart rate
10. Energy producing system within the muscle that is without oxygen
12. Energy producing system within the muscle that requires oxygen
15. An increase in one or more of the FITT variables to provide an additional workload
17. Principle The variables of frequency, intensity, time, and type
